Topic: the "central finite curve" and Plato's forms
Anonymous A started this discussion 8 years ago#67,139
here's a new theory that just hit me and i think you may enjoy it. this sprouted from the recent post about roiland's interview and his statement about the central finite curve and the "iterations" away from the central finite curve, and i've managed to run a bit of plato's philosophy into it to make it beliveable.
for those of you who don't know, plato's theory of forms states that nothing we see is "real", but mearly a shadow of the "real" thing from the so-called "realm of forms". so your chair is not a chair, but merely a shadow of the arch-chair from the realm of forms, and so is every chair and every other object.
so here's my theory-every dimension in rick and morty is basically a permutation of every possible form, filling out every possible timeline with given forms. so let's say that on the central finite curve, every form "fits" it's place in the world, so a chair in every universe of the central finite curve takes the form of THE chair, the table in every universe of the central finite curve takes the form of THE table (im using capitalized "the" to emphasize objects from the realm of forms).
so what about "iterations" mentioned in the show? those are basically when an object takes another form. so we've seen a universe where a human takes the form of THE pizza, and phones take the forms of condiments etc, there's also the blender dimension in which every object takes the form of THE blender. we haven't seen anything from the simple rick's universe, but it's fairly possible that because we didn't see enough of that universe maybe just a few (60?) obscure forms are swapped.

The central finite curve is the segment of reality that contains universes from dimensions where events lead to there being a rick and most other things common to his life such as beths and mortys.

I was actually just about to type this exact post out. What are the odds???
