Thoughts on him turning out to be a clone of Rusty?
I still can’t make up my mind on it, halfway between thinking it’s too incestuous vs. actually brilliant.

Probably would have come off better if there were more foreshadowing in the earlier seasons. It sort of feels like an asspull since you can tell they weren’t planning for it initially.

There was always going to be some sort of relation. The name of the show is Venture Bros. and they've gone through multiple variations of what that could mean.

Not him, but I was humping pillows for a long time at the start. Looking back my poor parents must have known every time they washed my pillowcase. Kinda embarrassing but what can ya do.

Personally, I think that Rusty didn’t want ANOTHER brother to die in front of him like JJ did.

Incidentally, since Rusty is a clone, did all Rusty clones have a JJ inside of them or was it just him?

Because for better or worse the monarch is one of the only people who actually gives a shit about rusty, even if he wants to jam butterfly darts into his eyes, at least cares enough about Rusty to do so in the first place.

you never jorked it at your place of binnis? It's a great way to feed off of the sleepy feeling of being up so damn early, and then become even sleepier. then you realize you're fucking hungry but the only food available is expensive cafeteria shit because you had lunch already.

btw the hands-free guy explained, scroll down a bit. he was humping a pillow like a girl.

like I gripped it, applied force to the middle, and, using the base of my hand as a fulcrum, bent it backwards to at least a 45 degree angle if not greater, then let it go. Instant splooge.

>>
>>154557324
anytime theyre hanging out together in a classy party is hilarious, becuase Monarch is too busy suppressing his rage to notice how much Rusty is humiliating himself at any fancy location by being such an ass. he'd be LOVING watching that, if he could just let go for a second and watch.

I also loved that time they played that 'guess who I am' game and Dr. Girlfriend was assigned Jackie O, revealing she does not know who that is.. and later we see, indeed, her costume and persona were kinda picked for her by the Guild, who had very few ideas beyond 'sexy lady'. So when she insisted 'powerful woman behind powerful men' they just thought of a history person.

>>154558046
I think that's part of the joke
>>
>>154558069
really? explain. It didn't feel like the surprise of Brits feeling that way was part of the joke. it just felt like they were written with the assumption that everyone in the world is like americans whose culture was poisoned by puritans like dr. kellogg.

I don't see how that relates to Nancy and Drew. What, you think that weird midwestern bodyguard of theirs taught them the birds and the bees? That does track I suppose.
>>
>>154540483
They set it up through out the series subtly enough and it makes sense thematically with the show. Obviously the full 8th season would’ve been far more satisfying than a movie but I think they brought it home well enough with the creative constraints of being a feature. I honestly just wanted them to hit 100 episodes, the show is pretty much impossible to air in a syndicated format but out of so many shows made in the last few decades I can’t think of a single one that deserved it more. Don’t forget to watch the show on YouTube they just started to release it weekly on their channel and it deserves the views (with ads on niggas, I know but they deserve it)

https://youtu.be/3WeIB_ijA1Q?is=3l0SDq8MY4xga-_U
>>
>>154541029
They just treated the commentaries as discussions amongst themselves, I think they did them all in one sitting per season. It’s comfy and totally worth the price of admission, I just wish the complete series release came with the two season one commentaries they couldn’t fit into the discs.
>>
>>154558690
There's so many parts of the hypothetical season 8 that would have worked better, and I think #1 with a bullet is Monarch and Gary quitting the Guild so fucking quickly. It's too sudden in the movie. You literally just got made level 9s, you don't even want to try it out first?

I was intrigued by the fact that he seemed to know everything about Jonas and still thought he was a good guy, even in the movie. Makes me wonder if there was some offscreen character development there.
>>
>>154559010
I think he respected him as a scientist and as a father, and he's old enough to have perspective about the flaws of people of their time.
>>
>>154559022
Maybe. He does quote Jonas Sr. at the end as if he had acquired some wisdom along the way, maybe regretting some of what he did along the way and gaining clarify. I suppose we could find out if they get cyborg Jonas working again.
>>
>>154549751
>Personally, I think that Rusty didn’t want ANOTHER brother to die in front of him like JJ did.
That would imply that Rusty knew before Ben told everyone, which he didn't.
>Incidentally, since Rusty is a clone, did all Rusty clones have a JJ inside of them or was it just him?
Can't be certain. Evidentally it was enough that it was a serious flaw that needed to be worked out, which Ben and Jonas Sr. apparently did at some point.

>>154550759
>I still dont understand that Ben guy
Personally, I believe he's likely Jonas Sr.'s brother. He probably kept Ben around because while he apparently lack's a sense of charisma, he has the aptitude for Super Science and didn't want him sharing it with potential competitors.
>>
>>154559151
>Personally, I believe he's likely Jonas Sr.'s brother
I never considered that, good call. That might explain why he has a more favorable view of Jonas.
>>
>>154559151
>brother
kind of a Mycroft? More brilliance, less ambition? I could see that.
Would also explain why he never gives his last name. Not exactly a name he wants anyone to attach to him if they don't know it already. Not to mention last thing he needs is Dean callin him Uncle Ben.
>>
>>154559546
>kind of a Mycroft? More brilliance, less ambition? I could see that.
I was thinking more equal brilliance. Maybe more patience because we know even Jonas Sr. wasn't above cutting some corners. Either which way I think he would've been definitely smart enough that Jonas Sr. would've thought him to be a kind of threat so being the asshole that he is, he kept Ben under his thumb and would kick some projects his way every now and then. Hell, wouldn't be surprised if the house he lives in is the original Venture family home. We know from zoning contracts that the property originally belonged to Lloyde Venture, so Jonas probably expanded it and kept the original home in an isolated corner of what is now the Venture compound.
>Not to mention last thing he needs is Dean callin him Uncle Ben.
This kinda honestly just makes me all the more convinced because they already threw mild Spider-man joked with Dean. Also not to mention that Ben is voiced by J.K. Simmons.

Canonically? Jonas Sr.. Col. Lloyd Venture, the Grand Protector of the Orb, was Rusty's grandfather, and thusly Jonas Sr.'s father.

No, he was Jonas's grandfather. Dude was from steampunk days.

Season 8 never....
>>
>>154555254
Literally what the fuck even is this post
>>
>>154560222
Allow me to rephrase.

The funniest thing about that scene is, Monarch is probably unaware of the tiny cephalopod 'cuttlefish' and that it's called that, and that its 'pen' (the closest it has to a shell) is the 'cuttlebone' given to birds to chew on and wear down their beaks,
and instead, he probably thinks there's just a random fish called 'cuddle fish' because that's what it sounds like. So it's even MORE ridiculous to him that he has to demand these things.
>>
>>154536793
I must say, having finally gotten around ti watching the entire series. It’s a master piece. I’ve never seen adult animation that even came close. VB is in a class of its own. How doc managed to keep the story seamless over 20 fucking years and with maybe 2-3 years passing in the shows timeline is crazy.
>>
>>154540483
They didn’t have the time. The project got swept up with the merger. It took people going nuts to get a pity movie 5 years later. It needed like 3 seasons. Ofc it would be an asspull with so little time.
>>
>>154559047
>>154559010
I think Jonas was becoming less shitty when Rusty was in college and felt some guilt. The scene where he calls Rusty on the phone sticks out to me knowing what we know
>>
>>154560531
ehh it was always planned to be one season. Anon is saying they should have set it up more, further back.

thing is, they did, a little. Ben is possibly one of the most glowing examples of their writing, because he spoils all the rest of the plot twists of the show while examining Dean, but we don't listen because we're worried about Dean and wondering who this strange guy is and what's the deal with the monkey.
>>154560547
oh yeah. man, I need to watch a video that explains everything sometime, because I feel like we got all the information about Jonas's death / Movie Night in just the wrongest order and in the wrongest amounts for my brain to grasp it.
>>
>>154536793
I know your a happily married man Monarch but I was wondering if you had any thoughts on our wonderful ebony threads?
>>
>>154558830
Level 10s, but it didn't come with any more money and it's basically just a boy's club. Other than the million Dean cut a check for, Monarch doesn't seem to have come into any more money lately, so a rideshare villain outfit would sound like it made sense.
>>
>>154560547
I doubt Jonas became better, it's just that it's easy for him to seem nicer in short bursts froma distance like that. It's just the longer you're around him the more likely it is for him to start losing patience and interest
>>
>>154559792
There's a whole generation of Venture's we're not familiar with and I don't think the writers were ever interested in delving into that because it might humanize Jonas Sr a little too much
>>
>>154559684
…how old is Orpheus, come to think of it? He doesn’t really look 50, but he’s definitely not any younger than that either.

>>154562623
He's taken very good care of himself, but he's over the hill by a decent margin. I think spending so much time with various ancient beings has just inherently skewed his sense of time. Like how Hank and Dean were essentially raised by Jonas Sr. via the learning beds.

The wild thing is that the release schedule for Venture Bros was considered slow and inconsistent in the past, but is kind of normal in streaming. So there's hope some other team has a similar passion project, but I don't think most streaming platforms would want something as niche
>>
>>154558844
Presumably mining for potential reboots by renewing interest in the old properties they own

>>154558830
I’d say my biggest complaint was the lack of real time with dean dealing with his guilt. I think the movie was great but fucking hated the sub plot of him thinking he was a vampire, it felt to easy. But yeah more time with Hank and his personalities working through his trauma and more time with dean Orpheaus and Jefferson following him.

Honestly I really wish they talked them into doing a comic, I think that shit would’ve been great. They could’ve mined so much from b plots they ignored by letting the comic talk about it or straight up do a gold key esque rusty venture comic about his adventures as a kid

I agree that it's a weakpoint in the movie, but I think it just comes down to how much less time they had to do everything for a movie instead of a whole season.

I mean we did see his desperation to be seen as a hero through trying to get an arch rather than trying to actually do good. But I think that adds to the juxtaposition between him and rusty. He’s introspective about himself and his powers and the responsibility they hold, going as far as to believe that the game between the guild and “good” means anything beyond the battles, where rusty is just wallowing in his apathy trying to just maintain the life he understands with as much disdain as possible. EVERYONE in the show is a true believer in the life outside of rusty who sees it for the charade it is, and it was further cemented when the most significant super science contribution he made (the teleporter) was immediately suppressed by “the good guys” for the maintenance of the greater good.

The show is a great balance between irreverence comedy, the fucking wacked out ideas the writers come up with by the seat of their pants, and a genuine look at the reality of feeling like a failure. The more I think about it the angrier I get at Rick and Morty just supplanting it and failing at almost everything the show was (but just sadly being funnier and snappier by being written by veteran sitcom writers who know how to make palatable slop)
>>
>>154568064
That's a good point. Though really it seemed to me Byron just wanted a villain because it was fun and cool. And he thought maybe he'd get a girl villain. a redhead. Also he must have felt kind of snubbed.

eh, I enjoyed R+M for like, most of the same reasons, about 80% as much as VB, as long as we're talking yknow, the six seasons. Six. there are six seasons.

>>154568089
Rick and Morty is fine I shit on it as the popular thing more than outright hate it. I agree that the show lost a decent amount after Roiland was booted but you could tell his idea for the show began and ended at “lol random thing” which did work, but the pivot was always hard between the two.

Venture bros always is going to be viewed through nostalgia goggles by me, hell my first experience with the show was watching it at my uncles house randomly one summer and seeing the season one finale for the first time, that shit blew my 12 year old mind and I chased that through the decades. Orpheus deserves a big titty goth arch, a black cat type where they fight then fug
>>
>>154568148
Oh totally, the two greatest fools would be anyone thinking Roiland was dispensible and those thinking he's indispensible.

>Black Cat type
fuck.. that'd be great for Orpheus. Maybe she keeps tempting him to use his magic for selfish purposes, and he gets hard for her but then TUT TUT foul strumpet, YOU SHALL NOT SWAY ME THIS DAY!
and then it turns out that is her fetish and now she's fuckin all over him.

It’s the best representation that the venture bros is set in a world closer to our own than any other show. Imagine if you have this almost magic scientist wizard who fights evil all over the world and getting the chance to get money from him (or just joining that world for profit) and just seeing how that world treats the people in it as simply an outsider. It’s a fantastic exploration in empathy, even if I think that season 4 was the weakest season over all

absolutely not. No. you really need to do that. This is an animal that hunts 5 times as much as it needs to eat, it needs to FUCK and make babies, and you will not be getting around that. Orpheus had the right idea, that is a -thing-, but zero shock that it didn't work out. Though it sounds like most of the failure was his own emotional reaction.

This was probably the first time this show TRULY got me laughing out loud. It was funny before, but in more of a wry way. a ninja spy who really just jacks off to technology, henchmen from two different villains colliding and sharing stories, eh, yknow. funny but not guffaw-worthy
actually I lie, the funniest was the first post-pilot episode, the entire exchange with the mexican college proctor guy.

I used to think of it as the British schedule
You get a few episodes every few years, when the writers think of enough funny shit to fill out a filming season. then you wait for more.

But yeah starting with VB, it's more the.. 'auteur schedule'. when a show is, rather than the syndicated ones we grew up with who had huge writing teams and like 8 different japanese and korean studios animating them, instead all done in-house by two guys, writing everything, voicing most of it, assisting in boarding.. it's bespoke, artisanal animation

Always bugged me how the rednecks hassling Orpheus for his hair both have hair longer than his. I don't think that was the joke, they weren't supposed to be bemulleted oldtime rednecks, they were supposed to be modern joyless cleancut ones. Clearly the art and script weren't speaking to each other here.

It's interesting to see how things have shifted. Also, a lot of streaming shows die doing what Venture Bros did because it's all dumped at once and we forget it until the next release. There is a huge conversation that probably needs to happen about release schedules, streaming, conversation, and relevance, but I'm not sure how to start it.

Are you insulting me or the average viewing audience? Streaming is a very different game with wildly different data. I don't disagree that streaming has a massive issue with everything it releases, but it's more complex than most will admit. Everything released on a platform competes with the new and the massive history of what is available on streaming. How does something new compete with watching "The Sopranos"? How does any superhero venture compare to the older Batman, Superman, and Flash series from the 90s?

Rusty would be a better villain. The OSI sucks, it's constantly holding him back from making the weird shit he actually likes making and they treat him like shit. He really only tries making "normal" super science inventions to keep the lights on and it's just whatever shit his Dad or Brother didn't finish
But he won't go the extra step and become a full blown Super Villain because he's justifiably disillusioned with the entire setup his Dad left behind and would rather be left alone by the end of the series nor does he want to be a "bad guy"
Monarch would have been an amazing Superhero. Even though he's a Rusty Clone he has his Dad's spirit in there somewhere that make it possible for him to comically take down other Super Villains. But he can't because of his tardrage towards Rusty which can be summed up as self-loathing

Rusty's in the clear of becoming something worse because he's self-aware but Monarchs a bit more sad because his family died and he had nothing going for him for years besides his hatred of Rusty who was faintly aware of him in college

I mean she almost did the first time. But yeah Richard last we saw him seemed to be doing a lot better but ironically that's probably due to him just accepting she can't love him like that anymore and just being there for his son.
>Doc and Jackson talked about a deleted scene in "Now Museum" where he tries to talk to Rocket but deemed it too sad. Also they regret having the stinger being that Richard was just trying to kill himself.
I think the episode where he was just genuine with Dr. Girlfriend when 21 kidnapped the boys is probably his best chance of ever getting a woman. If Rusty were ever in a situation where he just let down his insecurity and ego, he's perfectly capable of being a guy other people like but he's constantly trapped in either trying too hard to be impressive or being defensive because he's scared. But ultimately it's not that kind of show, Rusty's humor and character is built on the fact he'd never leave that cycle atleast not until it ended.

I took that as a joke on how young Sue was when she fell for Reed. Like she was just a naive girl, who didn't even know how to use her powers properly for YEARS and could just turn invisible and hide.
I'm certain liberals see Reed as some kind of cradle-robber and reee at him and think he was 'grooming' her or whatever. Sally was clearly sheltered, not a proper adult.
But with JJ, she became.. well, a prudish, uptight mom, but at least sort of an adult.

Meh, I never had an issue with the Reed/Sue thing and I tend to find zoomers obsessed with age gaps to be annoying to be around. But getting back to Sally, I think she generally did like Rusty, which is probably why she went for his brother. In many ways JJ had Rusty’s good traits without any of the crushing failure that caused Rusty to become bitter, callous, and apathetic. If Rusty ever did seriously address his baggage I think he and a more mature Sally could work. I definitely think Rusty would be a better stepdad to Rocket than Richard. Actually, it’s kind of funny that while Rusty isn’t the best dad, in-universe he’s a better father than most of the dads in his world, including his own. Although that’s almost like he’s the nicest guy in prison.

BECAUSE YOU ARE SANE!


I wasn't suggesting you are, I'm suggesting some faggot on reddit is, and doc and/or jackson is riffing on that.

you have a point I suppose. but I think it helped that JJ is also a child kind of. he's never seen anything, the only reason he has a mind at all is that the learning bed was beaming the same info into him. then for decades he had nothing.
>Rusty would be a better father than the babe's own father
100% true.

It’s a shame Dean and Triana can’t meet at this stage of their lives, I think they’d actually work as a couple now. No, I don’t care about the behind the scenes stuff, I’m just talking the characters. And I kind of want to see what the offspring of a super-scientist and magic user would be like.

rermember when they told that court they beat the Monarch with mecha-shiva? they're the Perjure Brothers

>>154610358
The only way I'd want it is if Dean and Triana meet up, Dean still has the same jitters he did as a kid but then when they meet he finally gets over the hump and just has a conversation like they're actually friends. He realizes he doesn't put Triana on a pedestal anymore and can move the fuck on.

I like the way Malcolm's hands are drawn here
>>
>>154610358
I honestly think they’d go together better now than they ever did before. Triana could really relate to his desire for a more normal life and how overbearing Rusty ended up becoming of him, and the whole clone thing might end up getting to her like it did her father. If nothing else, I think they’d make very good friends and I really wish that, at the very least, Triana would’ve managed to become Dean’s Dermott.

It’s a shame about the divorce.

We could've used more flashback eps tbdesu

you know what just occurred to me?
Rusty calls Jonas 'Dad'
the boys call Rusty 'Pop'
He doesn't want to be even a little the same kind of father his own father was, right down to the epithet.
>>154610358
I do wonder if the rejection is kind of what sent him along those semi goth lines..
>>
>>154613322
aw man. Dean deserves a Dermott. But realistically all he's getting is a Brock.
and yeah, divorce really fucks up families. we need to do something about this thing where people (especially women) just become different people than the ones they were when they married. Stop that. If you're supposed to be that person, START as that person. make that change at the very beginning of adulthood.
>>
Ogo
Pogo
>>
>>154615487
I think realistically he's getting a Jared. Though I'd wonder what their dynamic would actually be if they could build on it.
>>
>>154616322
I always thought that the direction the show was heading in was that Hank and Dean were going to let go of their Sirenas and Jareds and hang out with each other again. Maybe Dean would be less antagonistic towards Dermott after they both were trying to save Hank. I suppose you're right with him needing a friend of his own though
>>
>>154616322
Jared's cool. Dean would make a decent Harry Osborn for him
>>154616436
it is safe to say that happens after the finale when they're back home again
>>
>>154612621
His name is Malcolm? I could have sworn it was Malcom.
>>
>>154617031
that's a pretty rare variant spelling. Yeah I doublechecked, he's using the normal spelling. Malcolm Fitzcarraldo.
I'd go by Monarch too.
>>
Shadowman 9 was such a great episode because Sheila is clearly pretending to have known more about what was going on, while simultaneously accusing Phantom Limb of the same, to save Monarch, who is CLEARLY guilty here. And she doesn't let the cover slip once.

No, New Dean and Triana should be better off as friends. Too much awkwardness from past heartbreak for Dean to ever see Triana in a romantic light again, but I would've liked Triana to see how much Dean changed.

I'm a huge romantic (I loved Brock & Molotov), but I NEVER saw any chemistry between them, even as a kid. It always felt like watching a little boy crush on an older girl, only if the little boy was the same age as her.
>>
>>154616322
Jared is definitely a serial killer
>>
>>154618226
This is how I sort of see their relationship going in my head:
>s1 butterflies-in-stomach phase. Dean really likes Triana; Triana couldn’t give less of a shit
>this continues until P.R.O.M., at which point Triana moves away and the two sort of awkwardly “break up”
>Dean goes through everything in the latter half of the show— finding out he’s a clone, trying and failing to do what Rusty wants him to do, eventually deciding to go to college and try to live a more normal life
[entering headcanon territory]
>after the movie and another year or two at college, Dean realizes he can’t really escape the weirdness he was born into so much as minimize it (unless he wants to excommunicate his entire family, Hank included, which I highly doubt he’d do)
>Remains relatively hostile towards super science, but starts becoming more interested in magic due to Orpheus’s continued support and the prevalence of magic in his chosen major (he’d probably end up doing history or literature?)
Brief aside— not sure if anyone else always saw Orpheus as Dean’s father figure, but I always thought he and Brock were meant to be counterparts once the boys came into their own. Hank really took to Brock’s macho super-spy stuff, while Orpheus always seemed happy to help Dean and might’ve even preferred him. I can write a lot about this, I thought it was very sweet and figured it was intentional. Anyways.
>Starts kind of dabbling with Orpheus’s help.
>This eventually leads him to Triana again, but the two are basically different people now
>Dean has matured into a much more empathetic, logical kind of guy. Sort of the quiet professor to Hank’s shouty gym teacher.
>Triana is mostly the same, but has grown a bit more self-assured and happy thanks to her grip on magic
>Dean’s growth is obvious enough to somewhat embarrass Triana— enough that they become magic rivals for a while. Triana’s starts out unfriendly, but she mellows

>>154536793
This show had constant circumcision jokes. Has to be the one thing keeping me from fully enjoying it :c
>>
>>154618405
Character limit fucked me, but you get the gist. With how little spotlight Dean and Triana got past season 4ish, a lot of this is pretty much invented… but I thought it’d make sense and play into their histories. Dean really doesn’t seem like the kind of guy to get over his childhood crush— more like the kind to better himself in hopes of earning it. Orpheus was pretty much always there for him in the show, even more so than he was for Hank, and people whose lives get screwed up in the ways Dean’s has been don’t ever really get to be “normal.” They just get to reconcile what’s “normal” with what they have. The healthiest way for Dean to do that would probably be to finally let Orpheus try and help him instead of trying to completely reject anything “not normal” from his fucked up life, so when I was thinking of a happy ending I figured Dean learning magic as a way of reconciling his old life with his new (it’s still “weird guild stuff,” but not the kind his real dad wants… while still pleasing his father figure— so it’s rebellion against his shitty blood family while making his chosen family proud) was a decent way to go.
I also figure Triana would admire that, given how she always seemed to want a measure of stability (but clearly started getting more into magic in her later appearances), so she and Dean would be on the same wavelength of wanting something more “normal” (not as theatrical as Orpheus or disruptive to their lives as arching/being arched) while still retaining something familiar (magic).

keep in mind another deleted scene has him inadvertently acting extremely gay with Jared and Vatred giving his full support, in a scene that leaves very little room for it being double entendre because there's no way Jared would be that clueless even if Dean is.

Much as Rusty is fed up with the arching bullshit, he does love it to some extent. Plus, Monarch and Gary helped him save his home, and after all that crap, he probably just wanted to get some rest since he was woken up in the middle of the night to find out his house had been turned into a fucking Space X project.
>>
>>154620947
Yea, it just feels so lame after Dean has made so much progress. Sure, they made him cuck his brother later on, but at least it showed Dean COULD get over Triana.
If she were to return, I'd either have them just be friends, or at least be cordial and just talk about something and then go their separate ways with no tease of "will they?"
>>
>>154623302
>Much as Rusty is fed up with the arching bullshit, he does love it to some extent
He loves the notoriety of being a Venture, even if everyone thinks he's a huge loser failure who's only getting by on his Dad's success
He'll brag about being a Venture even though he himself rarely does anything worth of note, the fame comes from the family lineage and mostly his Dad
Not really a wonder why everyone adored his brother way more than him

Felt like they wanted to give a little update on Triana until they thought the fans would interpret it as foreshadowing of her return.

yeah but he's not even a pirate captain anymore, and he clearly didn't much enjoy it in the first place, so it's just funny.. he's not even "Kaptain Klepto" or anything like that to describe what he does as a ghost pirate ship operator.
Maybe he used to be Kaptain Kidnapper until the optics got too poor
>>
>>154627337
