Real Life Associations[edit]

i removed: "It is speculated that Rochefort was based on Henri-Louis d'Aloigny, the Marquis de Rochefort, although he was born many years later, long after his fictional counterpart had died."

if Rochefort the fictional character died, then a real-world boy was born after, how could the character be based on the boy? maybe this was supposed to read some other way, but as it is it makes no sense Bantosh 14 June, 2006

It probably means the real person was born after the date of the fictional events, but before the author wrote the book. Clarityfiend 00:39, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

real life counts of Rochefort[edit]

Just thought I'd add a note here that real counts of Rochefort existed. For the time no article about them exists (and I certainly have no material to write one). But it is unfortunate that their title is currently used for this fictional character (who probably was not named after them). Alos note that lords of Rochefort existed as well, but that's a different issue again.--Caranorn (talk) 18:56, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One of them wrote a book about the Caribbean in 1666. However, the fictional Count of Rochefort is much more notable; just as there may be many real "Harry Potter"s in the world that do not require their own articles. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.67.138.111 (talk) 13:44, 5 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Return of the Musketeers[edit]

Can anyone add his role in Return of the Musketeers film or something? I never seen it, but I seen the first two. Does he get killed off (again, lol plot hole) in RotM?24.65.118.20 (talk) 05:57, 8 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you see Rochefort and Milady's daughter Justine de Winter attempt to kill the musketeers in a gunpowder explosion on a ship, but they put a rope above a candle and then escape in a lifeboat. Though Rochefort stops the fuse from going off, when the rope breaks, a lantern falls on the gunpowder and blows up the ship. Presumably Rochefort is killed in the explosion. I've added that to the page. Ghostkaiba297 (talk) 03:42, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
