Most timelines have a Rick and most ricks have a Morty. How does that not mean infinite ricks in infinite universes?

CelticPredator posted:Interdimensional Cable 2 is basically unfiltered Roiland. And it's the best. It's a good litmus test for me to see who likes the show for the right reasons and who likes it for the wrong reasons. I feel like the pure ad lib segments are the weakest part of Rick and Morty.

Slime posted:All of us wish to be the Rick, for at least if we must hate ourselves at least we would be intelligent. But no. Deep down we know, that we are Jerry. Morally grounded and trying your best to raise a family that seems to be turning out okay?

Evil Morty has no bearing on modern politicians, other than the generic rise of fascism using resentment of decaying capitalism bit. To that end he's more analogous to Hitler than Obama or Trump

Baronjutter posted:A morty without a rick would just happily go to school and masturbate and other normal 14 year old stuff. I mean, you can really only have a Morty with a dead Rick, not no Rick. That's kinda how grandparents work.

REMEMBER SPONGE MONKEYS posted:Just saw a clip that looks like the creators did the full "suck my dick you fuckman" scene, as was previously done by a goon. Is this legit? I haven't seen any of season 3 yet. It was released before season 3 even came out. It's a standalone and I think the art (but not the voices) is fanmade?

Rexides posted:The message of the show is that intelligence alone can't solve your problems if you are a self-sabotaging callous dick, and society wouldn't be better if only everyone else was just like you. Half the people are just like his moralizing grandson, though.

Bobbin Threadbare posted:Capitalism also encourages automation, though, and it seems odd y'all keep forgetting that when job loss from advancing technology is one of the classic woes of a capitalist society. Ricks don't work the assembly line to make a Marxist point, Ricks work in menial jobs any Morty could do because Ricks created a dystopian society, and Ricks did that because Ricks are the people Ricks hate the most. If you were the Rick who cleverly automated the process of your own job, you'd be fired as redundant by an uncaring cool Rick. Then you'd have no money and no portal gun.

Bobbin Threadbare posted:And how does that stop the Ricks in charge from automating jobs? They're just as capable of lording it over homeless Ricks. The only way the Working Stiff Rick story makes sense is if it doesn't, if it's not a natural society because Ricks are secretly self-sabotaging. Plus the soma wafer bars are a dead giveaway that this story is to some degree Brave New World the same way Good Cop Rick is in Training Day and Drama Morty is in Stand By Me. Dude, no the point is not that the citidel is specifically self defeating, it's that its entirely human failings are ones that every society has with a little color of super-genius psychopathy mixed in. Bigotry, unnecessary exploitation, crimes of desperation, corruption, charming fascist politicians, even school systems whose only goal is to make obedient followers. I don't know why you think the lack of automation that improves workers' lives is the mysterious absence.

CrazyLoon posted:Also very much so this. A joke can be cool and alright enough on its own, but when someone runs it into the ground (and with large fanbases this inevitably happens) yeah...the fun drains away quick. I'm Rick James, bitch! What is it about deeply cutting insightful comedy that attracts hoards of loser nerds who obsess over surface level jokes and ruin them?

I don't think Rick was being honest that the reason he keeps Morty around is the psychic protection. Lying with a truth there.

Somberbrero posted:You're completely right. I feel like even the most hardcore Supernatural fans acknowledge that the show by and large sucks. I don't even know who is still out there stanning supernatural, all the Tumblr superwholock kids grew up and walked away. By comparison, Star Wars is one of the most common denominators of nerdery and so it has a much active, much louder fanbase. Yeah, say what you want about Rick and Morty fans (please? they're hilarious losers and there's so much material there) but I don't think it ever got a "this isn't misogynistic enough" organized fan movement Btw, besides "all of them" the worst fanbase is renaissance art. Prove me wrong.

Ups_rail posted:counter point MANGA sells very well, to the point that anime s are made to push the light novels and the manga. God, imagine if comic books had a mega corporation foisting a constant deluge of comic book material on a wider audience through movies and tv shows or something to keep up. Sadly there will never be a parallel like that.

People nitpicking the effectiveness of her eco terrorism is weird. The premise and/or joke is that she's an eco terrorist, not a pragmatic political campaigner. Because violence is what makes a hero into a superhero.
