Movie Meltdown: Episode 527

This episode we ask the disturbing question - what if they made a live-action Rick and Morty movie? We attempt to come up with casting options, choices for directors and we delve into the overall themes of the show and how that might be converted into a movie. 

And while we get into the groove with some snake jazz, we also bring up… face-huggers, multi-verses, remorse, comedy, the most moral choice you make, I hope that person gets run over, power-mad, that kitty is adorable, this is a story about a Grandfather and his grandchildren and their beloved story as they tear the entire universe apart, the fabric of the universe, she is in control, the house party, I can’t save every bus, go down any dark rabbit hole, Dan Harmon, there is just no hope, brief and minimal, epic selfishness, having sex with a planet, Back to the Future, self-assured and smart, horse doctor, there are so many moments of that… that have broken my heart, that could be sold, the rapid-fire delivery, I guess I wanna like Rick more than I probably should, clones, not the dynamic but the delivery, the story and the redemption, infinite perspective of the universe, The Rock can’t be everywhere at one time, taking a break, I don’t care, transcends whatever is happening and what are you doing with Jason Bateman?

“It’s interesting… it brings up real philosophical and moral questions that... we’re not probably ready to answer yet as a society.”
