Rick’s solution isn’t to buy more storage. That’s a Jerry move. Rick’s solution is to re-encode reality itself. For the uninitiated, FFmpeg is the Swiss Army chainsaw of multimedia processing. It is the ultimate tool for converting, streaming, and destroying video files. It is powerful, ugly, and unforgiving—exactly like Rick.
"Rickmancing the Stone" (S03E08) is often remembered for two things: the post-divorce chaos of Rick and Jerry living together, and the brutal, Mad Max-esque post-apocalyptic fantasy world Summer gets lost in.
Rick encoded The Dark Knight on veryslow because he hates Jerry and loves efficiency. You should too. Final note: No, FFmpeg does not actually appear in S03E08. But after reading this, you’ll swear it was there all along.
The command? ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libx265 -crf 18 -preset veryslow output.mkv .
Here is the command Rick used:
While Summer is learning to stab people with bottle caps and Morty is getting his arm stuck in a Mad Max trap, Rick is staring at a 4K Blu-ray rip of The Dark Knight (his guilty pleasure). The file is 65GB. His Plex server is lagging. Beth is complaining about buffering.
He slams the laptop lid shut. The encode fails. He doesn’t care. He’ll do it again on placebo preset just to prove he can. Rick and Morty is a show about nihilism, intelligence, and the futility of effort. FFmpeg is a tool about hyper-specificity, control, and obsessive perfectionism.
