Transcript
00:00So let's say Rick and Morty last a thousand episodes, then what's the what's the.
00:05Definite final, final episode, I guess it would just be, hi, it's Dan Harmon.
00:10And I'm going to answer rapid fire questions for The Hollywood Reporter about Rick and Morty.
00:15If I had my way, Rick and Morty would run 100 seasons because it's.
00:20Designed to my favorite Rick and Morty episode, I'll go with Pickle Rick, even though.
00:25That's cliche.
00:26I'm Pickle Rick.
00:27I would say the Rickest Rick is.
00:30The one who is the second Rickest Rick, which is the one that our.
00:35Show follows Rick C 173, as opposed to these.
00:40Supposed Rick Prime, who is the one who truly invented portal travel.
00:45Whereas the Rickest Rick is the one who is also a victim of that Rick.
00:50And who invented portal travel after he did in order to go.
00:55Find that guy and destroy him.
00:57I think I think part of being.
01:00Truly, Rick, you have to be self-destructive.
01:04If I wanted to hang out.
01:05With one of the Rick and Morty characters in real life.
01:07I think I'd start with summer because I don't think.
01:10That she would turn me into a sandwich on an accident.
01:14I mean.
01:15Rick's a little too powerful, a little too, you know, out of my league.
01:20Summer seems like she might like to get high and hang out and be vulnerable.
01:25I and we'd both be better off for it.
01:27But second to that, I mean, I think.
01:30I think Jerry would be a good time because I think I could astound him with how.
01:35supportive I could be of him.
01:36I think Jerry probably is a little hard on himself.
01:39And I think.
01:40I think Jerry's kind of cool and I I'd like to put a smile on his face.
01:44The character that.
01:45I would least like to give a spinoff to I think would be bird person because.
01:50That is just more work for yours truly and I'm 50 years.
01:55old.
01:55Why did Mr.
01:56Quiffy butthole get divorced?
01:57I think vanity.
01:59I mean.
02:00I think that Mr.
02:01Poopy butthole considered his wife.
02:05to be an accomplishment instead of a partner.
02:08I don't know what the.
02:10final episode or final scene of Rick and Morty is.
02:13I do think that there are.
02:15final moments in macro stories that are in fact coming up very shortly.
02:20within a season or two so let's say Rick and Morty last a thousand episodes.
02:25then what's the what's the definite final final episode I guess it would just be.
02:30maybe Morty turning 15 and finding a girl.
02:35friend that makes him want to be an independent person and so.
02:40everything is just kind of destroyed because Morty just wants to be a teenager.
02:45now and start to start to grow up so it's yeah maybe that's it's Morty's 15th birth.
02:50birthday would be the catastrophic sinking of that Titanic the Rick and Morty.
02:55movie's coming as soon as Zack Snyder you know gets back.
03:00from his vacation because I want to start with a Snyder cut of.
03:05that movie and then I want to do the director's cut of a Snyder cut release.
03:10so we can just have a six hour Rick and Morty movie and three hours of it is.
03:15black and white no I I mean I I we had actually his name came to mind trivia.
03:20asterisk because I got to meet Zack Snyder because he like called us to Warner Brothers at one.
03:25point and like wanted to talk to us about doing a Rick and Morty movie.
03:28not him like saying like I.
03:30I don't know if we get to do it or anything like that he was totally like super fan and was just like is there any way I.
03:35I can help get that movie started you know like by using my.
03:40First I went to I love my detainlove heteriness and it was a really cool fun just sort.
03:43Me and great.
03:44ge and great.
03:45So I was.
03:45giving him a shout out there. It turned into a weird satire. The Rick and Morty movie I
03:50swear is like super ready to to get started on because I think it's the
03:55kind of thing you could work on while you were working on the show. I mean and I
03:58think it's actually best done now.
04:00I think the appropriate response to Wubba Wubba Wubba Wubba is a solemn nod.
04:05And a kind of like a sort of street wise.
04:10Pounding of the of the chest like like somebody just being like bro I get it I know what it's like.
04:15I'm Dan Harmon thank you for watching me on The Hollywood Reporter.
