"Go Team Venture!" The Venture Brothers Thread

[Reply #360 on:]

Also, this guy does some interesting thinking about possible meanings of many things in series 3. And unlike most of the Billy Quizboy figuired out with a toilet paper tube crap theorised on the internets it is quite a good read. Being a Professional Writer helps this guy a lot.

Looking back, my favourite episodes in this series are The Doctor is Sin, The Buddy System and Home Is Where The Hate Is.

Another cliff hanger type finale.  Overall, I thought this season was just ok.  I really enjoy the previous ones better.  The highlight of this season for me was the Dr. Mrs. The Monarch outfit.

[Reply #364 on:]

I have to admit that this season wasn't half as intense as the previous ones... Season 2 opener was just orgasmic.... but, I did like all the story building.  They've got a real knack for writing, and it's like every little subtle detail in the series gets brought forward to become another pivotal piece of the puzzle that is Venture.

Also, Brock was pretty damned cool without any hair.... he just seems a little toned down lately.... it used to be that he'd just tear a man in half without saying anything... and then there was that time he got hit with a truck and like 50 stun needles.... or that time he smashed into a speeding car backwards without blinking.

[Reply #365 on:]

I thought this season was good, I still think season 2 is the better of the 3

[Reply #366 on:]

Oh snap, that button makes me want a wikipeelia page.

I kinda liked season 2 more as well. But season 3 was awesome.
My favourite episodes of the season were probably, if I had to pick a top 3:
The Family that Slays Together Stays Together, The Lepidopterists, and the Invisible Hand of Fate.

Lepidopterists followed by Doctor is Sin, etc. are the funniest, but TFTSTST and TIHOF are just plain awesome (and certainly not without their humour).

I miss Phantom Limb. His voice and persona made for the coolest kind of villain. That is, villain of the villain (the Monarch)... who's even more awesome in a completely different way.
Phantom Limb appeared in flashbacks in episode 1 and 3 this season, and hasn't been seen since. Which reminds me, wasn't he supposed to be still alive and the guild are searching for him? What ever came of that?
Oh well, I hear he'll appear in some form next season (in the first 2 episodes apparently).
My point is, it was plots involving him that made me love season 2 more than 3... Victor. Echo. November. for example... was amazing.

And let's not forget season 1 in all this season comparison. With episodes like Ghosts of the Sargasso, and Are you there God, It's me Dean?... And of course: "Mecha-Shiva!!" Damn. There are some good episodes.

Anywho, this quick post is turning into a directionless rant, so I'm going to stop it here.

The Venture Bros. season 3 released today on DVD and Bluray. The Bluray comes with a CD soundtrack.

Season 4 will be split up into two halves with 8 episodes each, instead of 13 episodes all at once. The first half will hopefully start before the end of this year, and the second half around June 2010.

[Reply #368 on:]

Oooh, 16 episodes for season 4?  Nice.

I'll be picking this up as soon as I get a chance to get to the store.  It's a shame the soundtrack only comes with the Bluray version.  I don't have an HD TV or a player (or the desire to buy either), so it's standard DVD for me.

[Reply #369 on:]

Pre ordered seaon 3, should have it in a few days, definitele stoked for more episodes in season 4

[Reply #370 on:]

God I love that Art Style. It even makes post op Hunter look cool.

[Reply #371 on:]

I picked up my copy today.  It's on special at Target for $19.99.

[Reply #372 on:]

fff, I spent like 4 times that. Of course, I got the DVD and Bluray version, so I can watch it in high def and on the go.
After all, it's my favourite show.

It's a great set. The Bluray looks awesome and there's deleted scenes and commentary with Jackson and Doc for every episode. There aren't any, like, tour-of-the-AstroBase type special features, and the alternate opening for the last episode was unintentionally left out which kinda sucks, but still awesome overall.
Also, it's uncensored, and I still haven't decided if that's a good thing, since the, em, cartoon penises are kinda creepy.

[Reply #373 on:]

It's always knd of a letdown when you actually hear the characters say shit or fuck

[Reply #374 on:]

I saw my first episode of venture bros. one week ago. I am hooked, I have seen all the episodes multiple times and they never get tired

I love this show because it doesn't make you feel like a stoner or a retard, it is well written and actually has a plot

Spoiler warning! Click to show/hide!

RIP 24

[Reply #375 on:]

I need to sort my time so I can watch other stuff besides Futurama

[Reply #376 on:]

yeah, VB is a good show to recommend to fuurama fans

[Reply #377 on:]

My Season 1 DVD arrived in the last few days and I watched every damn minute. God I love this show.

Grover Cleavelands Time Machine!

Watch it Morgan, you will not regret it.

[Reply #378 on:]

I'm just in love with Dr. Girlfriend.

[Reply #379 on:]

Thank Thinky for that  .

I think everyone is here loves Dr Girlfriend. It must be her harsh throaty voice.

Seriously though, I can't wait for the 4th series this November. Predicting Obi-Wan force ghost reference with our favourite Henchmen. That and Dean almost scoring. And I demand more Captain!

[Reply #380 on:]

So, November, eh? That'll give me time to re-download and re-watch them all, since I still can't seem to find an R2 DVD set.

[Reply #381 on:]

It still isn't on Amazon yet?

[Reply #382 on:]

I believe that voice behind Dr. Girlfriend is the creator of Venture Brothers.

[Reply #383 on:]

I already knew Doc Hammer voices Dr Girlfriend. Are you saying Doc Hammer isn't sexy?

[Reply #384 on:]

No way! I can't imagine anyone else but Doc Hammer playing Dr. Girlfriend. I was simply implying that he was part of the creation of Venture Brothers and not just voice acting.

[Reply #385 on:]

Don't forget Jackson Publick too! If you love this show check out the animated series of The Tick which is just as awesome.

In other news, I must praise the art you get with the DVDs. I wonder if we can get posters or even t-shirts of the stuff down here.

[Reply #386 on:]

Oh I got to check that out (when I have the time )

I can't get the origimals DVDs here unless I get it through online. I would love a T-shirt too.

The best part about being able to draw is you can create your own posters. Now if only I can find the time to sketch

Dammit! I'm such a procrastinator

[Reply #387 on:]

There's nipple in the DVD version of that scene.  

Where did you hear November? It's supposed to be before the end of this year, so November is a pretty good guess, but I haven't heard anything specific.

Also, Adult swim posted some parts of the comic con panel. The whole thing's also available on YouTube but in extra-crap quality, and minus the Season 4 preview which we should see soon from [as].

[Reply #388 on:]

I read it on Mantis Eye last year. Also, seen some of that footage in screencap form.

A nipple eh? a change from all the wangs I suppose .

[Reply #389 on:]

Found it on Play.com

Will order it as soon as I have deposited the requisite funds to my account.

[Reply #390 on:]

Awesome TNUK. High five!

New bodyguard?! fascist brown shirts!? 24 with Wolverine claws!? Darnel!? Hank growing his hair!? DEAN LOVES HITLER!?

My friends, we are going to have a kick ass season here.

[Reply #393 on:]

Looks awesome. I'm going to have to get the DVD's quickly. I need my fix.

I know what you mean, going to be a while before I get the 2nd series on DVD. Stupid  money issues.

I wonder where Brock is and what he'll do this Season?

Also, more Bowie!

[Reply #396 on:]

Ordered. Now sweating with anticipation.

[Reply #397 on:]

this reminds of when the futurama movie trailers came out, it would drive me crazy

[Reply #398 on:]

Season One arrived. The extras alone are worth forking out for. My word, but what I wouldn't give to be Brock Samson. He has a sweet car, and he gets to work out his incredible rage in constructive ways, like killing people.

[Reply #399 on:]

just realized we might get new venture bros and futurama around the same time
