S3E07 After Viewing

1. Ruicheng has selected many clips from real life, and the class and class plot settings in it can be connected with many things in the real world. The Rick and Morty in Rick Citadel are divided and opposed to almost all power inequality. The abstract generalization of class, Gender (Rick and Morty's duo is reminiscent of the marriage/love identity of the duality system in the real society, in S4, it was hinted with a face-hugging bug haha, and for example, teaching in school The compliments to Rick by Morty are reminiscent of the female characters' praise for male characters after the hero saves the beauty in the gender stereotype, and Morty is fixed to Rick. Morty rarely has the right to choose Rick, and can only accept from Rick's transformation, in the title, Rick picks out the spare Morty from the mall and puts it in a plastic case for sale, and in S1, it is distributed to Rick's Morty to receive a roll...); Race (the dialogue between Morty and Rick, very old The style of black officers pairing with young white officers); Class is more between Ricks than Mortys (which is interesting because in real life the label of class is mainly for men to advertise/define self, the kind that identifies themselves with, and to a certain extent/some angle for women, labels for selling themselves at a better price).

2. Simple Rick's plot is very interesting. There is a feeling that he can't escape the palm of the capitalist's palm no matter what, while the rebel rick enters Simple Rick's chemical extraction room with a gun and interrupts Rick who is fantasizing about reuniting with his daughter. Bring him back to reality, and he's then the new simple rick - his momentary chemistry becomes the new flavor of wafers. The product of wafer biscuits works on the spirit through the sense of taste, and the feeling is a clear expression of the cultural industry. The communication form of the cultural industry makes the information transmitted to the public have dual nature. The surface information is often freedom, equality, happiness, resistance to injustice and totalitarianism, etc., but the deeply hidden information is transmitted to the public to adapt to and accept the inevitability of the real order. Well, that explains it well.

3. There is a scene in the presidential campaign, showing the votes of various Ricks. Several of the Ricks in it are quite characteristic - the military type, the syllogism type, the elite type (Private Sector Rick)... A total of five people, in Ruicheng News Showing their votes, the lowest is Rick Guilt Rick, according to the subtitles, it is Rick with Rick's racial guilt (a dozen percent), and the highest is Retailed General Rick (35%), so look at Rick's voters Stance to the right. I feel that Evil Morty is a bit populist (the old elites were cleaned up at the end, Morty, who was originally low in social status, put on a white uniform and got the fruit guarded by the farmer rick before, it seems that it is the one that will become smart if you put it in a chrysanthemum in S1E1 Kind of?), I don’t know if S5 will have Ruicheng again in the future, will it become a Totalitarian Regime... Combined with S4E01, almost all of the fascist worlds that have retained the Phoenix project are in the fascist world, and there is a racist wasp world, I feel What do the creators also say about the reality, a little disappointed?

The Rickshank Rickdemption quotes

  • Rick Sanchez: [as Leader of the Citadel of Ricks] Operating an unregistered portal gun, radicalizing a Summer, conspiring with a traitorous Rick. How do you plead?

    Morty Smith: How is this a fair trial? O-Our lawyer is a Morty.

    [Lawyer Morty is goofing around]

    Rick Sanchez: [as Leader of the Citadel of Ricks] It's not fair, you have no rights, and he's not a lawyer. We just keep him here because he's fun. Look at him go.

    Morty Smith: [as Lawyer Morty; mindlessly] Ha ha! Yeah!

    Rick Sanchez: [as Leader of the Citadel of Ricks; to Summer and Morty] We'll be lenient on you if you renounce your Rick. What say you, Summer?

    Summer Smith: I say fuck you! My grandpa was my hero. You killed him because you were jealous of him. That's pretty obvious from the haircuts. So do what you want to me, but let my brother go. He already renounced Rick.

    Rick Sanchez: [as Leader of the Citadel of Ricks] Morty?

    Morty Smith: [Morty is being bothered by Lawyer Morty] What? N-No, I don't want to see your Pog collection.

    [to the Leader of the Citadel of Ricks]

    Morty Smith: I don't renounce Rick, and I never have. I was just trying to protect my sister.

    [to Summer]

    Morty Smith: I wanted you to have a normal life. That's something you can't have when Rick shows up. Everything real turns fake. Everything right is wrong. All you know is that you know nothing and he knows everything. And, well -- well, he's not a villain, Summer, but he shouldn't be your hero. He's more like a demon or a super fucked-up god.

    Rick Sanchez: [as Leader of the Citadel of Ricks] Let's not suck the ghost of his dick too hard. He was a terrorist and now he's dead.

    Morty Smith: [now confident and angry] Oh, yeah? If you think my Rick's dead, he's alive! And if you think you're safe, he's coming for you!

  • Summer Smith: I'll rescue Grandpa myself.

    Morty Smith: And how are you gonna do that?

    Summer Smith: I don't know yet. I'll make it up as I go. That's what Grandpa Rick does. That's what heroes do.
