I just realized that "Killer Drone" implies he was fighting a killer bee based villain and got stung. He needed the "plus size version" to fight while puffed up.
The most horrifying part of this is that Jonas could've brought Morpho back with his memories and personality mostly intact, but instead made him into mechanical servant that he later just threw in the trash
I guess he was trying to retrieve his body to restore it but it didn't aged well, but what would've better if he cloned him rather than placing his human organs in his new invention Vendetta.
@@moelester634 well, cloning in VB doesn't produce full-grown bodies as I remember. When 21 asked Rusty to clone 24, he responded that it would be a baby clone and he'll have to age naturally. And it was Jonas's cloning equipment.
I think the Blue Morpho/Vendatta character is probably the most genuinely tragic character in the series. He starts out as a genuine hero, is blackmailed by Jonas (who also had an affair with Morpho's wife behind his back) into doing his dirty work for him, is killed, is turned into an amnesiac cyborg by Jonas, is killed again by Cano, is brought back Again by Dr. Z who wipes his mind of all memories, disappears, reappears as an amnesiac villain, confronts Jonas and kills him (or so he thought) in the Movie Night Massacre, gets his memories back after almost being destroyed by Brock without provocation, goes home to a long-empty house, then finally confronts Jonas Again, who tries to trick Morpho to steal his robot body to house his own brain which will kill Morpho once again, and then he and Jonas are finally killed in their final confrontation. I don't know how they could have made his story more cruel or tragic than they did.
It's also the most comic book story of all in a show that loves to homage/parody comic book superheroes. Amnesia, betrayal, and a metric tonne of deaths and restorations. It's a perfect tribute to all the tropes.
What also makes it more sad that he finally reunited with his baby boy Malcome still alive for a couple of seconds then shuts down again possibly forever not before giving one last smile on his face knowing his boy is still here.
@@jacobwalker4398 That seems a bit much. He's thoughtless, self-centered, and short-sighted, but even that seems like too much of a leap. How would killing a housewife and a child benefit him?
@@Unownshipper the scandal could have ruined his reputation, remember how he never went back to save the kids trapped in his bunker by m.o.t.h.e.r. for fear of a lawsuit?
I used to think the Monarchs origin story was kind of stupid. Now...I can't ever see that scene the same way, knowing that Venture Sr. probably saw Blue Morpho's kid running around naked and _took Blue Morpho's corpse instead,_ to turn it into a fucking robot. Probably left the wife's corpse in the plane.
You ready for a mindfuck? 😉 Season 1: Hank and Dean Season 2: Rusty and JJ Season 3&4: Hank and Dermott(and Dean and D19) Season 6&7: Rusty and Malcolm. Brock’s got a brother too, btw. 😁
@@Morpheus414 at this point, I'm betting on all characters with similar hair color! Billy Quizboy (red hair), Garry (red hair), Brock (blonde)... I think only Peter White is safe
One of my favorite things about the show at this point, is that the characters have matured so much that now they mostly dress and act like normal people. BUT they still all have wacky cartoon voices that are impossible to take seriously.
That was the purpose of the series basically be a Hanna-Barbera tribute. So it makes sense on why their voices lean on more of the campy and wacky tones of cartoons from the 60s and 70s.
Fun fact: In certain episodes of season 5 Blue morpho and his wife make small, easy to miss appearances. One on the spannikopida episode, where you see them briefly on the boat Jonas jumps on, and another on the Monarch's family picture that Rusty has.
@@theemeraldblonde218 Knowing how he turned up, I think he was more happy to see his son was even alive. That little smile he gives at the end is so bittersweet.
I love that literally every single detail revealed about Jonas Venture (Rusty's dad) shows how much of an absolute evil asshole he was. In a show that's about heroes and villains, the supposed gold standard for heroes is the most evil by far. Love this goddamned show.
Yes I think it encapsulates the idea that there's a very thin line between being a hero or a villain, and people's perception is in the end the determining factor.
I love that he has a variant of his outfit when he fights Killer Drone if he gets a reaction from the venom he gets from Drone's stings. This implies that Drone is his main antagonist and it also parodies super heroes having various suits to sell toys.
@@thecpmr6276 its more ironic, killer drone implied he was a bee/wasp. As evident by his use of venom on blue Morpho. Morphs son became a bee themed villain.
Well, we already knew that Vendatta was a Venture creation and had tried to kill Rusty, but that it was the Monarch's father rebuilt as a cyborg/android was a bit of a surprise. Everything fits, though. So, while not necessarily obvious as some would like to claim, it definitely was setup properly.
Here's a fun fact. I live in Newark and Blue morpho's home is a real building called the Kruger mansion Well this comment blew up. Thanks for the thumbs up everyone.
Remember when Dr. Killinger said that Dr. Venture's life is a "classic Cain and abel story"? That's what all of the Venture Bros. Is. A Cain and Abel story. Nearly every major conflict in this series is about sibling rivalry. Hank vs. Dean. Rusty vs. The monarch. Rusty vs. Jonas Jr. The neglected hunchback Dean vs. The superior clone. Heroes vs. Villains And what's the grand point that the series is making about these rivalries? That they all spawn from the same thing. Abuse and neglect. Rusty is cruel and neglectful of both of his sons, but more so to Hank than to Dean. He puts Dean on a pedestal he never wanted for himself and puts Hank on the shelf altogether. He makes his sons compete for his love. Why? Because that's what happened to him from his father. And that's what happened to the Monarch all along. They were half brothers who were constantly compared. They were set up to be rivals literally since birth. And as a result they hate each other when they don't have to. They're pitted against each other because it's in their blood, not for any rational reason. They're both miserable as a result, but Monarch especially can't bring himself to separate from Rusty and be his own person. If only they could realize that the cure to their sadness isn't more neglect and ridicule and detachment; it's loving and nurturing each other. They don't HAVE to play this charade of good and evil that their fathers forced them into. They can choose to be different.
@@jiggamanog No your the r-word....no where did I mention Suicide Squad The Movie....I was talking about the scene in the dinner was just like a scene out of the comics when they are on the road doing a mission dumbass
@@EvodLighttaker WOW Mind fucking blown....REALLY Suicide Squad was a thing before the movie....Your lying next thing you'll tell me that there was a Watchmen Graphic Novel and TMNT comics before the movies came out....idiot...what are you 12?
I love the fact that Killer Drone would've been wearing the same costume that Pete White had to wear to "fight" St Cloud. They say in that episode that the costume belonged to Killer Drone
@@Hriskataaa yeah like me I just started the series last week because of all the yt recommendations and the fact thst I was curious about the naked guy with blonde perm who was covered in blood and said it was make his enemies afraid of him...
@@muratkahraman8743 You picked a rather fortunate moment to start the series, a new season should be dropping this year, there is nothing official (that I know) but judging from the release of the last few seasons 2020 should bring new episodes, knock on wood.
Only the peerless Enzo could make such a slick suit in an anti-allergen variant. I wonder if he does Bespoke bathrobes, maybe block a black bowler hat and some HUD-enabled sunglasses.. not that any youtube commentator is thinking about going into the Hero business or anything.
I love how a damaged cyborg with a human face stretched over the facial part was able to walk 1,766 miles out in public and no one thought "Hrmmmm, that.... thing is odd. Maybe we should intervene and capture it and find out just what the hell it is." Says a lot about the Venture Bros. universe. Probably afraid the Guild or OSI will kill them for sticking their nose where it doesn't belong.
I love how they used the design of the Brotherhood of Steel bunker from Fallout 1 for the entrance, really caught me off guard the first time I watched this
There's something so unsettling about the V over the crotch. Yes, it's probably meant to mirror the natural V that can sometimes be seen on the male body, but it also evokes the knowledge that Jonas literally cockholded him when his wife allegedly went to him for help concieving, and thinking of Jonas putting that there on the body of his friend is just so. . .gross.
I was rewatcning the show and I think the most disturbing thing was realizing that Jonas was, like, sexually obsessed with the Blue Morpho. Remember, Jonas brought over those women seemingly just so he could create that tape to trap the Blue Morpho. And while the movie implied that he probably didn't sleep with his wife, he did force the Blue Morpho to commit a series of sexual crimes. Blackmailing someone into sex is a form of rape and Jonas seemingly did that multiple times. And then there is even Jonas turning him into Venturion and then forcing him to basically be a maid, a rather feminine occupation. And then there is the sad way Vendata reacts to Jonas when he does see him again on the space station. He is scared of Jonas and he just wants people to believe him.
Connor McLernon or possibly Jonas did have sex with blue morpho’s wife but did not impregnated her and monarch is actually a composite clone of Jonas blue morphs and his wife
gentleman maniac that’s what I’m going with they, as they doo share actual traits maybe it’s like dio where his sons are like partially his and partially Johnathan’s.
Huh... I know it was pretty obvious from the get-go, but it's pretty attention-grabbing knowing that Vendata really was the Blue Morpho. It also makes the Monarch's trial all the more interesting in hindsight. The Monarch was talking with his father and he didn't even realize it.
I don't see how anyone could have thought that a robot, especially one who was thought to have been put out of commission by Brock fucking Sampson, especially one of the (former) council members, would turn out to be one of the greatest heroes of all time.
Oh come on he had a fricking V on his belt. BLUE attire. Old? No way he wasn't related to Jonas. I'll admit pointing him to morpho was harder at the time but it was obvious there was more to his appearance then what was led on
@@Jennyfoxeh In the episode that Brock took down Vendata, it was already mentioned that he was built by Jonas and was turned evil. The Guild didn't know that, but the OSI did.
themarkiscooking or he may have deliberately fucked with him I mean maybe he was legit when he said fertility treatment but he still used his own penis or something
I live like 30 minutes from that exit sign. You head to Route 80 east either from 280 or Route 46 to head over to Newark Airport. Traffic isn't usually bad going there. Weekdays in the afternoon heading east there's hardly any traffic. Only when you're heading west during early afternoons because that's when the New York desk jockeys clock out and swarm the highway heading back home.
Has anybody else noticed that the entrance building at the start of the video is shaped a lot like the entrance to the Brotherhood of Steel base in Fallout 1? Did the animators slip in a small reference to that classic game here?
Either that, or the background artists simply used it as reference model. Same thing was with RE4 mercentary confronting Colonel Gentleman in Star Wars cantina.
This was the culmination of everything. Everything that had been going down in the background throughout the show's run, and it all came together. The smallest things suddenly actually meant something, and everything was connected. Everything goofy turned serious. And the scope of everything up to this point dawned on you, for the moment Morpho suited up to finally take on Venture.
And holy shit I thought he was the test pilot from the first season. The one that kept screaming all the time. I knew Jonas had attempted to cyborg someone and failed and it was someone close to the Venture family I just didn't know who.
VB is known for bringing back characters. I doubt that after keeping us waiting for what happened to Jonas Sr. and Vendata and Blue Morpho, they'd just kill them off within a few episodes. They'll be back. Just you wait.
+NC A (NCA) Not Jonas though. All that was left of him was his head and Rusty took that. They possibly took Vendata to study and possibly learn Guild secrets from his mind.
Actually while Rusty took his father's head, and possibly the remains of the PRO-BLEM. The Guild took the remains of Vendata for the crimes of the blue morpho. It is possible that they both will return in some form. I'm betting on AI/Cyborg.
this season was in 2018, its 2020 and we havent heard a peep from the new season. i know its been confirmed, but not even a trailer yet. and thats just par for the course as a venture bros fan, we got like 7 seasons in 17 years...and rick and morty fans think they have it rough. sheesh.
For real! It takes a lot of loyalty/patience to be a Venture Bros fan...I'm pretty sure that Jackson Publick and Doc Hammer are the only two guys doing the writing, so it kinda makes sense. Still though, only 7 seasons during its 16 year run is pretty brutal.
So true, so many R&M fans were freaking out over the "see ya in a year and a half or longer" joke in S2 but watching Venture Bro.s since S1 it's like "it be like than sometimes man"
It's been two years and public said he new about it months ago that's my one gripe with the venture bros it takes forever I could write a whole season so easy
My biggest problem with this show is the writers took forever to tell this story. There's no way they wrap the many plotholes in one movie but we take what we can. Seriously, why did they take forever to tell this story on a cartoon series? Sitcoms don't last as long as they did.
April 9, 1987 The day Jonas Venture.....well, died seems slightly _wrong_ Lost his body and got put in suspended animation, but as far as the world was concerned, died.
A lot of people immediately see Green Hornet, but Blue Morpho is also based off of The Shadow. And like The Shadow, he is a darker more urban vigilante with a bad reputation compared to the more squeaky clean seeming Jonas Venture. Or The Shadow to Doc Savage. And this is proven to be false because Doc Savage lobotomized some of his foes into submission while The Shadow never goes that far. Although Blue Morpho is much more emotionally vulnerable than The Shadow.
I was rewatching the series and it's really pretty sad just how vulnerable the Blue Morpho is. Even if Jonas hadn't attacked him, the Guild and OSI weren't going to let him get away
I think it's crazy that they included the date for the Movie Night Massacre in his flashback as Vendata. I'm certain they mentioned that date before and they just threw out a subtle hint that the Blue Morpho was at that event.
No one at Don Hell's cared that a councilman of the Guild was assaulted in their bathroom and neither did anyone who saw him walking during those 1700 plus miles between that joint and his old home.
Councilmen were anonumous among rest of the guild, so nobody would care that some random android got his ass kicked in a bar brawl. Why nobody bothered Vendata on the way to Newark? Let's treat it as temporary plot armor.
I strongly recommend it lol , also in proper sequence from the very 1st episode season 1. Ya dont wanna miss the Christmas or Halloween specials either. The guy that makes the music introduced it to me from bonus material on his " Love " album by his band Foetus .
I actually think that's why Jonas broke him. He hated that the Blue Morpho was competent without him and he hated that he was just a good, normal guy. He had to control him.
This seasons opening 3 episodes pretty much ended a lot of storylines and answered offically some big questions mainly What happened to Jonas Venture Sr, but one answer remain to be answered from past seasons: Who caused the Movie Night Massacre? and I think a lot of us have an idea who has.
HOLY SHIT THE REFERENCES! The Blue Morpho mentions he fought the Killer Drone, which was the suit Pete White wears to fight St.Cloud in their level 1 battle. The same suit of course Enzoe had held for years after the Blue Morpho killed him.
