  1. Probably less than 1000 right now.
  2. "Have no fear, we've got stories for years!"
  3. ...where are you finding that list of "animation directors"? It doesn't even make sense, there are several company names on there.
  4. Did that episode...almost make sense? And attempt to explain past events? Like a functional narrative?
  5. I consider myself to be a reasonably intelligent person. I've watched plenty of good mindfuck shows and had a blast trying to piece together what's going on and what will happen next. But it's hard to think of another series I've seen that's as perpexingly, willfully incoherent as this one. I said it elsewhere here, but on a moment-to-moment basis I've often found it impossible to figure out how each scene connects with each other. Which version of Rick is that? Are we in an alternate universe? A flashback? A flash-forward? Is this just going on in that VR helmet Morty was wearing? When was his waifu an alien, and when did she look human? Who knows! I keep thinking at some point that it'll try to tie some of this disparate nonsense together, and a couple of episodes ago it almost seemed like it was trying to, but nope it went straight back to the plot puree again. I figured going in that I'd be at a bit of a disadvantage due to never having watched the original series before, but not only does it seem like it's relying on some super-deep cuts from that (which is an odd choice if you're trying to chase a new audience), but that even if you are super-familiar with the original it still makes no sense. So...who is this for exactly?

    Halloween

    I'm one millennial who just...doesn't get why people are so into Halloween. At all. I didn't even like it all that much as a kid, beyond the free candy. Once you age out of that it just feels pointless.
  7. *looks around at overflowing shelves and unopened boxes and gives them a bit of a hug*
  8. If a streaming service shuts down, and no one knew it existed in the first place, does it make a sound?
  9. The dub is scheduled to air on Thursdays at 12:30, I guess following in Rick and Morty's footsteps.
  10. That was TITS. Absolutely incredible. Everything I hoped it would be. I was sitting there jaw agape for half of it and kept yelling out "oh what the fuck." If they needed all of those delays to produce something that looked that fantastic, then it was worth every minute. Can't wait for the rest.
  11. Real talk, I have watched 5 episodes of...whatever this is so far, and it took watching Mother's Basement to understand what the fuck is actually happening:
  12. You have the weirdest hateboner, man.
  13. Is this show supposed to have a remotely coherent plot? Because I sure as fuck haven't found it yet.
  14. Terrifyingly close to 40 now, and I'd sleep well past noon on days I didn't have to get up for something if I let myself. Then again my natural state is nocturnal.
  15. I think my old school is moving from FCS to FBS next year, and that is about the extent of my investment in college football.
  16. Why would DeMarco give a shit? Everyone who wants has already seen these shows many times over anyway. Plus this is the Japanese audio versions, not the dubs.
  17. As someone who's never watched R&M and is only vaguely aware of its lore, I was expecting this to be a side project that I'd be able to jump into, but the first episode was totally incomprehensible, and while this one was better there was still a lot that wasn't explained at all. From the Wiki episode summaries it seems like it's hitting some pretty deep cuts from the series proper. Makes me wonder just what the intended audience is for this.
  18. When the Straw Hats meet her, Vivi is undercover in the Baroque Works criminal organization. Its female officers have names based on days or holidays, so she goes by Miss Wednesday.
  19. I've seen very little of R&M proper but I have no idea what the fuck I just watched. I can't even say if it was good or bad, it was just nearly impossible to follow.
