The Venture Bros. film, The Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart, comes out in less than a week.
What are some unanswered questions that you still hold onto?
For me it's
Who is Billy's father?
What happened to the rest of the Revenge Society?

Where. Is. Kim.
Florida.
Explained already; didn't actually seek out being a supervillain and became some MLM Mom in Florida
Sometimes when you're a teenager there's a cute girl who you really like and then years later you have no clue what happened to her, or maybe she became fat, or someone's wife, or some kind of career woman. People don't necessarily need some grand and intoxicating quest in their lives.
Welp.
The show is all about unions, is this really all that surprising?
Long as the damn thing actually comes out, whatever.
It's too late for them to stop it. The last competent media until the strikes end
Damn foolish of them really. They may be "SAG", but he has no credits outside Venture Bros besides some weird art films made for $10. He's very likely not to do any TV or movies after VB and just go back to painting. He's nearly 60. Burn your card and take this premier as a finale to a 20 year run.
They ghost writ for Superjail and probably other shit. Not to mention his whole post is literally saying he's doing despite the loss because he doesn't want to be a leech.
Your back ache from all that boot licking?
>commie accuses others of being le bootlicker
Always a laugh!
The SAG is just a different boot, anon. I don't care about either side, they can frick off about keeping someone from going to a premier.
Mad props.
You didn't get the memo, we're supposed to support the studios and hope the actors fail.
>we're supposed to support the studios and hope the actors fail.
Got the second half of the message but not the first half, are you sure it's not just you and your fellow cronies getting that message?
HA
enjoy your commie mafias
Eh they're the lesser evil of Hollywood so I guess I'll have to.
Honestly there's so many evils in Hollywood I'm hard pressed to list them
I guess the pedo rape rings are the greater evil, so there's that.
why accept any of them?
Because there are no other options. That's how Hollywood has kept its monopoly for so long. You have to be union to work in the industry or you don't work, period. Voice actors, writers, and actors. The hilarious thing about this whole strike is there's a possibility they frick themselves along with everyone in that industry. They smelled weakness like the pathetic jackals they are and thought they had the leverage to strike and get more money but the only reason the executives are weak in the first place is because they've been bleeding money for years now. The longer the strike goes on the more millions upon millions of dollars the entertainment industry loses. It's not going to take very long before any concessions the bosses give the unions will be a pittance because there will literally be no money left.
TL;DR dumb Hollywood actors gettin' greedy and are about to destroy the industry they're trying to screw.
Based Unionist, I don't get how you can't support them if this is the case.
Because most unions suck. They take money out of your paycheck and don’t do shit for you.
Half-true, they still do lead to improved wages and working conditions if you're in them, but they're now just shells of their former selves, there is no militancy, no real left-wing politics, just preservation of some of the gains made through imperialism for an ever-smaller slice of the labour aristocracy.
Arguably their issue atm is with AI stuff, and it doesn't help when one of the things the companies tell SAG they intend to do as a compromise was to just scan the faces of background actors and reuse it whenever they feel like it in other movies.
>enjoy your commie mafias
inshallah
>commie
>mafia
pretty sure those are opposites but okay cool oxymoron. you probably one of those people that don't know the difference between liberal and leftist which are complete opposites
The last SAG AFTRA strike was lead by this man
Looks like a liberal homosexual, though I'm sure he's half okay, atleast back then they knew well enough to not be gungrabbers.
that's fine. Whatever happens, happens. At least the movie is complete and releasing soon.
>Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart
What does that even MEAN?
Most people go with something relating to Monstroso because he has a gorilla heart. Radiant meaning that it's coursing with life alluding to the fact that he's not dead.
Wide Whale feels like a replacement for Monstroso after they regretted killing him and they needed a business villain
Will be Monstroso but with Jonas' brain I think
What happened to Monstroso's brain that necessitates the swap? Who's pulling it off since as far as I know Jonas's brain is dead after the opening of Season 7
OSI just has his body so they use that and transplant Jonas in. He makes the most sense for the final antagonist, who is a mystery character but is proficient with tech. Maybe getting revived makes him straight up evil rather than partially.
Was it confirmed they had the body? last I saw it was dropped in the middle of nowhere and they confirmed they never found it
Monstroso is still MIA as of S7, it's safe to assume that there was nothing LEFT of him to find (and even if he survived the fall I imagine the Investors would make sure to finish him off), though with the new villain group there's no reason he couldn't still be alive in the shadows
It's a Baboon heart, I'm thinking Mantilla is Venture ancestor who has a rightful claim to the Sovereignty of the Guild, the Baboon's heart is probably some precious stone heirloom that's called such because it's as big as a baboon's heart and is proof of her legacy. Arch's whole goal appears to be eating the Guild's lunch in the most embarrassing way by making all their loser villains hot shit.
But this is based on absolutely nothing but what they've already said and my vague knowledge of pulp cliches
Refers to when some scientists used a babboon heart to replace a baby's dying heart
The operation was successful and the baby lived for 32 days which was longer than it would have without the transplant
This could refer to the fact that the show got cancelled but the movie will wrap things up in a way that will be a bit clunky but will be better instead of leaving this unresolved
It could also refer to Monstroso appearing in the movie seeing as he had a heart transplant with king goirillas heart and we never found his body
I don't believe that the film will be able to fully close the book on Venture Bros. I worry about how it will wrap things up.
The only notable baby in Venture Bros. is Rocket and he doesn't get much screen time. He might be/ is a venture though
What was the Order of The Triad doing for the last two seasons?
Is the Atlantean JW still alive?
JJ…
>local color
Billy's dad was a psychic villain with a big head that raped his mom. Billy's a rape baby, not a secret Venture.
Also, it could be a reference to Doctor Girlfriend being retconned trans for woke points.
The first season had Billy Quizzboy and Pete White talk about Doctor Girlfriend and the rumor that she's a MTF troony that, rather than having a standard "mutilate my dick to turn my wiener and balls into a giant wound that has to be dilated once a day to keep it from closing" troony, had his wiener and ball wholesale cut out and a dead female baboon's c**t surgically grafted into the opening wound, giving Girlfriend a real vegana (granted, a baboon's vegana) that would never require a lifetime of dilation and could pass inspection to ensure no one ever suspected that she was trans.
The troony shit got dropped and debunked in season two and later episodes as well (Dr Girlfriend's deep voice is 100% natural due to a lifetime of smoking and Phantom Limb explicitly stating that Girlfriend is 100% cis gendered and would have known if she was a troony, going so far as to electrocute Brock nearly to death for calling her a troony).
But given the current year shit, it's been speculated that they might retcon it back for woke points; especially since Doc Hammer is a known crossdresser IRL.
Orpheus and the Triad appeared in season seven. Orpheus would have appeared in season six but AS screwed Publick and Hammer over on the episode order so his season six appearance had to be moved to the season seven opener. And the fish guy got dropped because he was a one-note character.
Yeah I know a lot of that because of the DVD commentary but it doesn't provide an in universe explanation for what was going on.
Brainulo being Billy's dad is an explanation but I'd need details
They couldn't spell overtly it out because censors won't let them have a major supporting cast member be a rape baby. But it's all there in that we see Triple Threat under the thrall of Brainulo and the fact that one of the chief reasons WHY Billy's mom won't tell him she was a retired hero, was due to the fact that she would then have to tell him she retired from being a super-hero BECAUSE a villain mind controlled her to try and kill Team Venture and that while he had her under his control, said villain raped her and got her pregnant.
finding this out would probably be enough to send billy over the edge enough to actually kill St. Cloud. and yes, of course he'd be the one to tell Billy. they'd include at least five minutes of St. Cloud's atrocious laughter and traditional mocking buildup just to culminate in his own death.
You just can't resist injecting your culture war shit into everything, can you?
>Dr Girlfriend's deep voice is 100% natural due to a lifetime of smoking
doesn't that make it 100% unnatural? It'd be natural if it was the voice he/she was born with.
Ironically not being Sheila's natural voice helps debunk the troony argument
The name has this comic book/ pulp movie vibe like most of the Venture Bros episodes.
It can also by symbolic as in the Baboon Heart is the heart inside the Venture Family, and it’s radiance could imply the weirdness they’re always involved in.
That and the Rusty/Monarch clone theory meaning they’re linked by a strange mutated heart
What're Red Dragoon up to?
They're hanging out with the council in the trailer, but since it seems like Dr Girlfriend is gonna be branded a traitor and go on the run they'll probably be out of the spotlight for most of the film
I'm glad this show was cancelled. It's been on a steep decline ever since the Gargantua-2 special. The new york seasons were terrible
morons loved it for seeing some sort of instant character development and drama rather than fun
I mean that was also great too for the sense of some story man, there was fun too still.
I just hope there's no commentary on modern-day politics in the film.
I hope Rusty gets to produce his broadway show
How does Doc Hammer feel about Woody Allen?
I only want Monarch and Rusty to settle their differences
>It's funny, learning you're my brother, I'm a Venture and who you are when we just talk...like this has made me realize a lot about myself and who I am. And that I'm still the same person I was before finding all this out, and that is a person who fricking hates you.
>Gives him a dead leg and walks away
>See you ls, Venture!
>Kicks over a potted plant on the way out
>Smash to credits
>Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart
Why would you choose to watch previews of this film?
Is that still happening?
Next week moron
The worst thing it can do is to be inconsencuential and judging by the trailer I'm 50/50
Does no one have questions about The Venture Bros. that they want answers to? This thread seems mainly about off-topic
Honestly I think we've all reached a consensus that the only questions we all want answered are:
- What's the deal with Rusty/Monarch?
- What's the deal with the boys' mom?
- Why does Monarch hate Rusty?
- Who killed Jonas?
And we know the movie will resolve half of those, and anything further than those are just icing on the cake that realistically Doc and Jackson would never acknowledge.
They're brothers
Genuine mystery unless action-man is to believe in the coma
Specifically because he wouldn't share toys and it ingrained itself into his psyche
I think it's Bud Manstrong who pulled the lever opening up Gargantua 1 to space. He saw the Jonas Venture Blue morpho sextape and in a traumatized state tried to kill his former hero as a result.
Monarch's hatred is multi-tiered if you want to get down to it.... It's not one simple thing.
stole a toy from Monarch as a kid
's parents potentially killed by Jonas Sr
spreading rumors that Monarch was a homosexual in college due to his butterfly themed poetry
(because of his unconscious knowledge that Jonas killed his parents) wanting to arc Jonas but having to settle on his son Rusty, who Monarch slowly realizes is a huge fricking loser and nowhere near the he man science hero his dad was.
>What's the deal with Rusty/Monarch?
We'll definitely at least get an answer about the "fertility treatments" and whether its a cloning situation or just good ol' Jonas fricking his friends wife. I'd like more about Rusty being a clone as revealed by Ben's Helper, but if it doesn't come up again I'll just assume Rusty is the result of a series of backup Rusty's same as Dean and Hank.
>- What's the deal with the boys' mom?
Honestly I'm fine with she's a normal woman who got sick of Rusty's shit as any woman probably would. There's the does she/doesn't she know about the clones, the original boys still being alive with her, did she leave after the first time they dies and all that but those are more fun what ifs than open questions that need to be closed.
>- Why does Monarch hate Rusty?
I'd be ok with just him just subconsciously remembering childhood at the Venture compound and knowing somethings wrong but not knowing what or how to cope with it so he just projects it all into hatred.
>- Who killed Jonas?
I'd say this is the major one that actually needs to be answered, along with
>What is up with Scare Bear?
>What is up with Scare Bear?
They threw explicit time travel into the weather machine episode so I can imagine him being a mute currently existing character who traveled back in time.
Will we see any explanation of the doc x billy time travel adventures? It could've been a segment unseen from Escape to The House of mummies but the Malcolm name drop implies that this Rusty already knows about his relationship with The Monarch
>>What is up with Scare Bear?
>They threw explicit time travel into the weather machine episode so I can imagine him being a mute currently existing character who traveled back in time.
Yeah that's about what I expect. I kind of expected the whole movie to be time travel-centric as a way of explaining everything, but the trailer doesn't give me that vibe at all.
>Will we see any explanation of the doc x billy time travel adventures?
They said they were planning on it in S8 but that might have to be scrapped now
>Who killed Jonas?
Jonas+BM and their struggles is the most interesting part for me and they’ve been dripfeeding their story.
Both thinking they’ve been betrayed by their best friend and now they’re both horrific abominations barely clinging to life.
Really hoping the movie has decent answers and a conclusion for them.
>in less than a week.
the frick
The most pressing question for me is whether I should buy the Complete Collection box set.
I'd like to own them all physically but a 12 disk dvd box set is pretty far from ideal
Are they really not going to release it on blu-ray? I don't even expect 720p season one I just want a reasonable amount of disks with all the bonus features they can cram in there.
You should buy it since it's a repackaging of the existing sets (the bulk of which are OOP) and have all of bonus features and no missing episodes like the Aqua Teen set.
And it's not on Blu-Ray because seasons 1-2 were made in standard definition and Adult Swim refused to front the money to upgrade them to HD.
Honestly I'm not, and I bought the ATHF one. That one (despite missing Shake Like Me) is the only way to own the post-name change episodes physically.
All of VB exists on DVD or Blu Ray so it's really cheap of Adult Swim to just slap out another DVD box for something that already exists in a better format.
Are any characters going to have real ending arcs with the film?
What's 24s life going to look like?
24 will continue to hench for Monarch until he dies. If Monarch and Dr Girlfriend have kids, he'll be their live-in nanny/bodyguard ala Brock. If Monarch dies, he'll probably continue henching for Dr Girlfriend, become a solo villain and arc whoever killed Monarch, or be "retired" to a leadership position in the Guild where he trains future Guild henchmen.
>24
Probably still dead, morons
hey it got you to post didn't it?
That's a good, if short ,concept Monarch and Dr.Girlfriend raising kids who are cousins to the rest of the Venture family and have interactions with them. 24 as bodyguard ala Brock is where it really shines
>post yfw the movie ends with Rusty and Monarch being forced to do the "Go Team Venture" pose
My biggest fear is anyone spoiling me the movie when I go searching for the MEGA the day the movie is released
Because of people discussing the trailers and the clips released I'm still getting spoiled either way.
I don't even want to know the runtime before I drop in
I really can't accept that this is the end, bros.
Who would win in an arch-off between the Monarch and the Monarch?
Holy shit, I haven't heard of this guy before. He should totally usurp the Royal Flush Gang, or set up some chess-themed villainous organization.
Holy SHIT this dude has a kid who tried to go up against Batman using his father's equipment and then confessed to Batman that he really wanted to be a hero instead. Why wasn't this capitalized on? Why didn't we get THAT instead of Jason Todd or Tim Drake?
Anyone know when the athf movie released/leaked?
The official premiere is 10PM PST at SDCC this Thursday so can we presume they won't drop it on streaming till midnight PST
in house digital release almost never leaks
Amazon digital says the movie will be available midnight on thursday so who nose.
Thursday 9PM PDT according to amazon digital.
ATHF's new movie leaked early, tho I think the physical copies are street dated for a couple days after so it doesnt accidentally get delivered early or fall off a truck or something.
