So a spin-off series of ‘Rick and Morty’ — ‘Vindicators 2’ — came out last year — uploaded to Adult Swim’s YouTube channel (and surprisingly melancholic in tone).

Noob-Noob's actions at the end of 'First Love' make him like the anti-Justin.

Huh, I didn't like it because IMO, it "redeemed" Rick too much in the episode. The Rick and Morty episode was about how even though Rick was powerful, he was still a jerk, and in his jerkiness he did destroy something flawed, but good (the Vindicators). Here we see that the Vindicators actually were phonies, genocidal monsters, and horrible people. Rick destroying them is actually a good thing. Which is just justification for Rick being such an asshole in the Vindicators episode.

These episodes didn't add to the story, they took something away from the story.

It was announced relatively quietly, and released similarly as such, all on the one day (the 23rd of July, 2022). There is also an anime series in development (following the previous five short films), currently set to come out this year (2023).

>especially if Justin Roiland is found not guilty

The domestic violence stuff seems to be just the tip of the iceberg re: why he's seeing so much backlash.

When the DV stuff started coming out, some younger girls started coming forth with some reaaaaal questionable 'I'm drunk and you're jailbait' PMs on twitter going back years from the dude that seem to have been more-or-less confirmed as legit.

It's pretty ick.

But you'd like them to? Because Chris Browns awful fan base stood by him you'd love to emulate that?

It's just more that Chris Brown's music is, and always has been terrible. Justin Roiland at least has been consistently putting out quality material since House of Cosbys.

Oh, one of them has enough talent to get a pass on terrible behavior is the point.

That's not better, are you gonna clarify into something even worse now?

Nah having him record dialogue behind bars is where it’s at.

Is it as bad as Rick and Morty gets?

It is surprisingly melancholic (in the sense of feeling sorry for the characters, which is the intent).

Yeah, but is the writing an improvement over rick and Morty?

Hey everyone gets it, you don't like Rick and Morty and you're very cool

jackolantern_ t1_j6evphi wrote

What a childish response. I feel Rick and Morty dropped in quality and I wanted to find out if this show is better.

I get it you love rick and Morty and are so cool and don't like it when people have different opinions to you.

Oh wow you copied my joke. Only someone who realizes how badly Rick and Morty is written could regurgitate a joke as well as you did.

jackolantern_ t1_j6eww8v wrote

Dude it's just different preferences chill out. Also, it doesn't help your case, because I didn't realise you intended that as a joke. Ideally, jokes should have some level of humour.

I've never claimed superiority to people who love rick and Morty. You're having ago at an enemy that doesn't exist lmao, it just don't love the show.

It's okay for people to have different tastes. It's not a personal attack.

Jokes should have some level of humor? What are you, some kind of genius? Have you told the writers of Rick and Morty how to fix their show with your amazing advice that jokes should have humor in them?

Jesus, you really don't like it when someone has a different opinion to you. It's fucking sad mate.

You realize no one truly gives a shit if you like Rick and Morty or not? But you've been condescending this entire time. Maybe that's what they're calling you out for? Your vernacular tells us you think you're superior. Hate Rick and Morty all you want but you can drop the pretentious and stop pretending this is what it's about.

Your question will get no substantive response.

buttflakes123 t1_j6j6ktp wrote

Well that sucks. I honestly don't love the community the show has spawned but I feel like the writing is just fine and occasionally really good. It's cool to not like something but I hate when people make definitive statements like that.

RealJohnGillman OP t1_j6dwj1f wrote

I’d say so, technically — it’s a very different tone from the main series, and one would wish the episodes were a bit longer than they are, but I would still recommend it to watch.

You are so cool for not liking Rick and Morty. Thanks for letting us know, your opinion is so important!

I mean, I get their point tbh.
Rick and Morty has some great episodes, but some really terrible ones as well. It's very hit or miss IMO.
