MrFlibble posted:If there are infinite - then there are an infinite number of Rick and Morty who do that and an infinite number of them that don't, all with slight variations . That's kind of what the word infinite means. Right. So even if Rick and Morty in one episode are virtually indistinguishable from the Rick and Morty in a different episode (including sharing the exact same experiences), they may not be the same Rick and Morty as we would define it in our limited understanding of the universe.

Beth getting the shakes super bad while pouring a huge glass of wine is gonna stick with me as one of the darkest, funniest things I've ever seen.

I just noticed the green rocks Rick dumps in the trash at the start of Episode 4, are the ones he picks up at the end of Episode 2 while he's loading up the car (after Morty shoots Fart).

They must be playing some sort of long-con with Mr. Poopy Butthole. He was the one who got them all to remember Cousin Nicky (who really is just walkin' here)...right? drat it what's going on?

Manket posted:They must be playing some sort of long-con with Mr. Poopy Butthole. Pretty sure him getting shot (and the after credit scene) are fake memories, remember it's not that the parasites can't make bad memories, it's that they can't give you a negative impression of themselves. Alternatively, he's real and we're pointlessly sperging out over a loving joke.

It's good to see the move away from the Kevin James Fat-Idiot-Smart-Wife dynamic, instead it's a show where everyone is kind of messed up, like It's Always Sunny.Pick posted:Not everyone! I'm excluding people who eat poo poo. It must be insane designing over a hundred characters who only appear for the one episode, unless these fake friends are based on the memories of real people, which means there's a photographer raptor somewhere out in the cosmos.

Apparently Mr. Poopy Butthole was in a Rick and Morty jigsaw puzzle that was in a Loot Crate a few months ago, thus reinforcing the joke.

What I want more than anything is for reruns of Season 1 to have Mr. Poopybutthole in the background doing something innocuous.

Top Hats Monthly posted:I heard that too I just re-watched that scene, and I think it's an inexplicably muffled squeal followed by "Awesome!" from Summer. As for Mr. Poopy Butthole, I think he's a parasite. And in true Dan Harmon Meta form, I think that the flashback that enshrines Mr. Poopy Butthole into everyone's memory is... the opening credits sequence. Think about it. That's a series of scenes that we've all seen a few times by now, but now they are clearly different because they include Mr. Poopy Butthole. The other flashback he causes is the one in the elevator after the Hulk musical. The flashbacks with Rick all have one thing in common, other than wacky new characters: they feature Rick in situations he'd never, ever be in. Rick isn't going to fall in love with barbecuing. And, he's not going to watch a Hulk musical with his family. As for the last part where he's supposedly real... c'mon. He is only ever referred to as Mister Poopy Butthole, honorific and all. He's clearly not human and nobody's even batting an eye, just like many of the parasites that were killed. It's most likely itself a fake memory and part of a long-con, as some have suggested. It may never even come up again, or it might be dealt with at the beginning of the next episode. Of course, it could be a simple (Warning! TV Tropes link! Click only if you have a few hours!) Rule of Funny. I'm not saying Harmon and crew are above something like that, but this show is a little bit more strict with continuity than most shows that would do something like this just for laughs (like Aqua Teen Hunger Force).

Also, Rick's objections aside, I totally believe the Nintendo DS incident actually happened. E: as evidence, I point to the fact that it's the only flashback not to introduce new characters. Applewhite fucked around with this message at 19:10 on Aug 17, 2015 |
