Rick And Morty - General Discussion

I wouldn't have thought about starting a R&M thread, but I had to share some promos for the DVDs that I found on the [as] YouTube site. The concept is simple: the DVD needs to be hyped, Rick doesn't want to sell out, so a compromise is reached. This is the long version. These are the 30-second versions. Did I mention puppets are involved?

A largely Community-related interview with Harmon has this bit about how S2 is going:

Dan Harmon: Rick and Morty the second season, it’s coming together really well. It’s animation so even though I’m long done writing it, now I’m first starting to see it come together in real form. I will tell you that the show gets a little more intergalactic in the second season. We were bound in our minds in the first 10 episodes to maintain a template of a sci-fi A story and a domestic B story. But we very quickly found out that that wasn’t really anything that was necessary for the show to be good. So I think we loosened the reigns a little bit on that. More different combinations of the family going off to have sci-fi adventures in different combinations. It’s a little less templated and therefore I think it’s better.

In brief: Morty rebels against Rick, saving a cloud of sentient gas from an assassin. Lives are lost, and Rick's cynical worldview triumphs over Morty's idealism. Also: Crisis of Infinite Jerrys! Well, not really a "crisis." More of a "sadness," because no Jerry can cope with an unfeeling universe.

 

Interesting that Dave & Buster's exist in many worlds and/or dimensions, under other names. Apparently, you can play Roy, the hottest life simulation game. Natch, Morty winds up going back to selling carpets after beating cancer.

I mentioned that it sounded like Jemaine from FotC singing in his Bowie voice for Fart.. didn't think I'd be right!

 

Another good episode overall. I did wonder why Jerry was along for the ride and was sad about it. Until he got put into the Jerryboree.. I wonder how many other Jerry's had tried to escape and failed, and if it was all of them.

 

Favourite line: I've seen some nerve gas but this gas got nerve!

 

And also, the return of Ball Fondlers!

 

I wonder how many other Jerry's had tried to escape and failed, and if it was all of them.

 

Oh i'm sure all of them had left of their own free will and had the same experience as our Jerry and just resigned to go back.  I loved that nurse at the beginning when they dropped him off.  I wondered what trouble Jerry was getting into, but come to find out this was all to keep Jerry out of trouble.

 

I loved Rick pointing out that Morty interfering w/ the original assassination of Fart caused other innocents to die in the wake.

 

I came into this show only after I read that everyone should check it out after the cameo for the Simpsons couch gag and I am in love now.  This show is equaling my love of the Venture Bros.  I would love for Adult Swim to pair them up in an hour block.

He didn't kill himself. He went to do it and then passed out on the bench before it happened... was my impression of the ending.

 

I just did a rewatch of that bit and while his head was between the red laser when he fell to the bench he was still breathing. I also assumed he would have turned into a pile of goop had it worked.

Biggest takeaway from this episode: Morty is okay with jerking it anywhere in the house. Anywhere.

 

Plot was a doozy . ..  parasites invaded the house, posing as distant relatives and friends with absurd backstories. Of course, lampshades are hung about how implausible Rick and Morty are on the surface. Oh, and one of the characters -- "Mr. Poopy Butthole," I believe -- turns out to be real, and winds up getting shot because he couldn't produce a bad flashback sequence.

No! Not Mr Poopy Butthole! He was a long term family friend!

 

I totally want a Tinkles plushie! 

 

What was the motive of the parasites? As far as parasites go they seemed kind of decent.

 

Love the Sleepy Gary and Jerry story line.. when did Gary become the husband and not Jerry? I am assuming whenever he was introduced. The pillow fight?

Is it possible that Summer's and Morty's  horrible memory flashback are connected to each other? Her reaction of the idea of him being her room was extreme unless it was connected to her flashback when she caught him jerking off in the kitchen and he inadvertently confessed to doing it in every room in the house. Sure Morty doesn't make the connection in his memory so he thinks she's unreasonable.
