So I was at a bar last night and all of the cocktail specials were Venture themed. The Red Moco Cooler (khalua, chocolate syrup, grenadine, something else) was appropriately gross. The owner was psyched I got the joke and told me they're doing a premiere party.

Cloks posted:My perfect introductory episode is "Victor Echo November". If Venture Brothers is a show about failure then this is the thesis statement, a simple dinner where nobody really gets what they want. You don't need to know the characters coming in and because they're established at that point you become familiar with them through a few quick lines. Plus, you get to be a popular idiot. Really? That episode is one of the hardest to understand because you basically have to explain everyone's backstories to get their motivations.

They picked the 92-seat Nitehawk too. That poo poo sells out for normal movies regularly.

door Door door posted:At first I was a little annoyed at Aziz because he has a very distinctive voice and it was very jarring to hear it in Venture Bros, but that line made it totally worth it. Martin and Thalia totally made this episode and I'm a little disappointed that they porbably won't be coming back. "Martin.... I feel that something untoward has happened... ah-whaaaaaaaat was it?"

Install Gentoo posted:Well the thing is, Youtube provides much better ad revenue for big companies running their shows on it these days. Back in 2009/2010 when the last season aired, there was a lot less there and also Youtube's HD setup was still kind of wonky. What's the payout like? I'm sure it's worse than iTunes, but how does it stack up to cable dollars?

Williams Street is in Georgia, Astro Base Go is in Manhattan somewhere. Also, I just got that Hunter telling Treister not to kill himself and shoot out of a cannon is exactly what Hunter S. Thompson did.

RandallODim posted:Having just rewatched the episode, it was definitely just a badly phrased line. The lines are supposed to parse as "He was a henchman for some prick in a butterfly costume! Two [henchmen] actually!" Because Venturestein was technically two henchmen, who are now one Venturestein. This is the joke.

thrakkorzog posted:Yeah, I figured it was sort of how Luke could carry on a conversation with R2 by the time they hit Dagobah. Spend enough time around a robot speaking in beeps and boops, I guess you get a pretty good idea of what they're saying. Nah, R2's beeps came up as text in the XWing.

Doctor Candiru posted:One way to interpret it, though, is that the show is about failure and stupidity -- two things that men are much, much better at than women, so naturally, there won't be as many women. Pretty much all of the women in the show, except for a couple, are much smarter, more well-adjusted, and just better all-around than the men, who are almost universally terrible. What kind of creepy self-deprecating white knight are you? Stop posting.

RandallODim posted:I've been wondering how they'll deal with that on the DVDs. If there's anything I assume they'll just an intercard or something inserted to say "Hey, the Halloween Episode happens now. Go watch it if you haven't, this episode will still be here when you come back." That seems unnecessary.
