As court cases go, the State of Georgia v Denver Fenton Allen may be one of the most insane legal proceedings in history. After all, it’s not every day a defendant repeatedly tells a judge “go fuck yourself” and “suck my dick”.
The team at Rick and Morty caught wind of this insanity and did their own re-creation for San Diego Comic-Con back in July, featuring Morty as the Judge and Rick as the world’s most vulgar defendant. After fan-postings of the animatic went viral, Adult Swim released an official version of the film shown at SDCC.
Now some fans have decided to do an even better version. Using Toonboom Harmony 14, YouTuber tiarawhy took the black and white animatic and animated it in full colour. It took two months of work, but it looks just great:
Justin Roiland, who is the voice of both Rick and Morty, does a bang-up job with his line reading. And the extra animations really add to what is already a truly laugh out loud experience. (The entire court transcript is truly a thing of beauty, truly.)

Very cool. The lip-syncing could’ve been a tad better, but even so, that is some impressive commitment to delivering.
I still can’t believe this actually happened in real life, utterly insane.
You cant? Happens over here a fair bit.
You’re only about a month late, it’s all good.
Actually the video is new. Yes, the voice actors saying the lines is old, but a fan went and animated the entire thing and only just finished it.
I had no idea they were reading off a real transcript when i first saw that a few months ago. Fucking hilarious.
Just checked out the transcript for the first time… this is real?!
Sooo… I’m guessing the Trial went Badly?
