Well, I had to get the OSI Shirt-Of-The-Week-Club Shirt as I'm still kicking myself for missing out on a Guild of Calamitous Intent when this all started. Even if it does cost me just under £20. Did the guy-in-a-dog-costume just disappear before Bum Rush got killed along with Shuttle Cock, Tank Top and Slap Chop? LashLightning fucked around with this message at 14:52 on Jul 1, 2013 |

I liked the small detail that the Alchemist is living in Trianna's old bed room, and that he hasn't bothered to change the room decor at all. Also, Patrick Warburton in the OSI shirt makes me hope that they Doc and Publick eventually slip in the line "Gotta support the team."

a cock shaped fruit posted:The Something Awful Forums > The Finer Arts > The TV IV > The Venture Brothers Season V: Molostro. Or do you prefer Monstrotov? This reminded me that at the end of the episode, the REAL OSI Suits were calling them "Molostro."  Shore Leave's a trendsetter.

I loved Hunter's little second-in-command (what was it he called him? Snoopy?). "Yes, yes I will do that!" I was afraid he was gonna bite it when Hunter had him take the helm but he pulled through.

The episodes quote should be " What are you a Superhero?" , that was a really great episode and I wonder if we're getting a longer story arc or something. I dunno most of the episodes are self contained but poo poo does come together. Really great all the call backs and we get to see Brock/Molotov's dead dad/partner thing which I thought was a great call back. Plus, getting to see Brock in action again.

I always thought Brock's first meeting of Molotov was when he and Hunter were in Paris, and she ends up tying him to a bed and setting the room on fire around him (as seen in Assassinanny 911?

Did anyone else notice the way Brock avoided the Ventures? I thought they were on amiable terms. He doesn't seem to want to have anything to do with them.

I hope Brock or somebody punches Headshot in the crotch or something the next time we see him. Loyal or not he is a goddamn creeper to the max. Poor Hatred. It is kind of amusing how he and Doc are sniping at each other now like an old married couple. An excellent episode that has me pumped again for next week.

Is anyone else that downloaded the episode via iTunes having issues? I can't get the drat thing to play and I've downloaded it twice. I can slide the play position to any point in the video and get a still frame, but the file just won't play.

Yeah, if Hatred was on the list, she would have come back for him after jacking Hank's suit and double-tapped.

Anyone else think the Rookie looked like a ten years older Hank? Like, if the Venture Brothers was a live action show and the boys dying and being reborn was a plot device to allow new actors to play the permanently teenage Hank and Dean ala Dr. Who and they brought back the original Hank actor to play a new character just for the gently caress of it?

I just realized that Billy, White and Dean indirectly saved Brock's life by first gaining HELPeR back from St-Cloud and then reverting him back to his previous form, which enabled him to come along on Baby Girl and fly the jet. The Investors really are creepy and efficient villains. I guess they won't be fooled by Molotov's deception with the intelligence they have. I'm curious to know if the Sovereign made a deal with the Investors to get where he is now. And how fitting is it that the one Council member to completely give away his identity is called Clue Clown? He's probably some insane mix of the Joker and the Riddler. ukulele bastard posted:Anyone else think the Rookie looked like a ten years older Hank?

Probably not going to wear the OSI shirt because it's not, you know, black and red (really the Guild shirt was drat perfect), but it'll get some use. It's not all pastelly or anything at least.

The Sovereign is totally David Bowie, the guy Brock met is just the Sovereign's David Bowie body double who he sends in his place to events when he's too busy planning super-villainy sometimes. The Sovereign may also be another, inscrutable thing on top of being David Bowie, and David Bowie may just be his Bruce Wayne-esque alter ego, but he's totally David Bowie.

Out of all the pairs in the series, Brock and HELPeR is one of my favorites. I think there's been a scene between the two of them once per season. I love the look on Doc's face when he realizes that Dean knows about their deaths.

So what exactly were the Investors trying to do on the helicarrier? Just figure out where Moltov was because they couldn't kill/kidnap her as well as Monstroso? After they got him out of the base, the seemed to be absent until they were onsite to do the interviews.

I was hoping we'd see the body/hole where Monstroso fell in the ending credits. That guy must of been like dropping an elephant. Ker-SPLATTT! This season has been great. I loved Al, but I thought Shoreleave and Al was just a fling due to his clinggyness.. Or am I forgetting where they got back together?

Figure out what OSI knew about Monstroso, I guess. Like Mol, if the Investors wanted to kill someone, they'd be dead.
