Stanley may have inadvertently ruined Stanford’s chance to go to his dream school, but to be forever condemned even by his entire hometown? That’s too far. His parents should’ve just sent him to some reformatory school if they think he really needed to be straightened up, because they did more than abandon him. And what about Stanford? Maybe that Backupsmore University isn’t the best, but I thought his incredible potential meant he would qualify anywhere, unless some other schools caught wind of the incident. And if he was righteous, he wouldn’t stop thinking about his family along the way with his studies, regardless of how busy he is, unless deep down he knew what his parents did was too far. Besides, Stanley admitting his mistakes wouldn’t change anything, not just because it’s been so many years, so it isn’t any wonder he called Stanford selfish, Stanley can’t be called selfish if he genuinely did care about his brother in spite of the mistake.

You know, looking back Stanfords argument doesn't hold as much weight as it used to. Was losing his dream school a major blow yes......Kinda of. However, think about it, it's not like it really stopped him. He still earned like 12 doctorates, graduated earlier than any normal person could, got an ass ton of money to study the stuff he wanted and probably made enough discoveries and inventions that just from the patents alone he'd be the richest man on the planet. Not even counting the number of awards he'd win, I mean the guy built an interdimensional portal for crying out loud. Meanwhile Stanley, because his dad booted him out, basically became a giant wreck. Being banned in numerous states, getting arrested, having no money, no family or friends and basically being everything his family thought he would be in the end. Does Ford have some justification to be mad yes, but of the two of them Stanley definitely has the high ground here.

I theorize that Shermy is the older brother by 6 years by the way and that the baby in A Tale of Two Stans was Dipper and Mabel's father. The older than six years has no evidence I admit, but it was the only way to put the baby at around half a year old that wasn't incredibly awkward.

I really like this fight. The way it’s portrayed isn’t about who’s the wrong and who’s right. It’s about who’s more justified, which is the conclusion each individual watcher can have, whether they are the same or differ. Some stand with Stanford, because of how he never obtained the apology from Stanley about his mess up that ruined Ford’s chances at getting into a great school (though he admittedly was able to achieve success due to his intellect). Then there’s Stan who just wanted to stay with his brother, and a single mistake quite literally damaged their relationship and ruined his life. And when the time came to reconnect, he was essentially told to take a hike and never come again. Honestly, both sides have compelling arguments, and that just makes watching them fight all the more interesting.
@michaelgualtieri651

While I agree both the brothers have their own justifiable reasons for being mad at one another, I think Ford was more in the wrong majority of it. Was it bad that Ford lost his chances to go to his dream school? Yes, of course. And sure if he really thought Stanley sabotaged him I get he'd be mad at first. But he never gave his brother really a chance to tell his side if the story. Sure, Stanley immediately mentioning the treasure hunting may have not been the smartest move, but he didn't deserved to get kicked out of the house. Plus, Ford's life still turned out pretty well up until meeting Bill. He still went to college, graduated with multiple doctorates, got God knows how much cash to study whatever wanted, and potentially could've became the most successful person on Earth. Meanwhile, Stanley was banned from numerous states in the US, was sent to prison multiple times, and had more enemies than friends or family to rely for help. So basically what I'm saying is while Ford had justifiable reasons for being mad at Stan, he should've gotten over it before meeting him 10 years later. And the fact Ford was still pissed at him after spending 30 years of his own life trying to get his brother back? Petty and ungrateful.

Zarina A113 I don't think it was the fact that he lost out of his dream school, as he puts it, but the implications of his brother betraying him (which is what he sees it as from his point of view) that caused him to still feel a sense of resentment. If you think about it, Stanley was the only friend Stanford had. When Stanley broke his perpetual motion machine project (probably), Stanford saw it as selfish of Stanley. He always viewed Stanley as a person that would support him in whatever he endeavoured, but his trust was broken when he finds out Stanley has broken his project, which is admittedly selfish on Stanley's part. I think it's just that, the broken trust that continues to cause Stanford to feel betrayal and some resentment because/towards his brother. Just my take on it though.
@22Tesla

True point, and Stan didn't exactly make his case any better. He didn't tell Ford he'd broken it, he wasn't remorseful hearing his twin had been denied entry into his dream school (trying to put a spin on it saying that this would mean treasure hunting for them), and he refers to it as a mistake. That just sounded weird! If I was Stan, I'd call it an accident, not a mistake. It sounds like he's saying, "It was a mistake that I broke his machine on purpose." While he was mad at what it would mean being left behind, he certainly didn't intend to break Ford's machine. If he had, he'd have smashed the machine, not just pounded the table. And he's horrified at what he did the second it breaks showing it was an accident. Zarina A113 true but it just shows how even a perfect character isn't perfect. Ford has an insane intellect but he's no where near perfect. Shows how even a genius isn't perfect as we all believe them to be. They are people, like us. With flaws.

I enjoy both venture bros and Gravity Falls, and I feel they both have a similar premise with different takes on family and adventure. ( plus the argument between Hank and Dean at the end of season 7 is pretty cut and dry if you watch all of the episodes, one feels rejected by their father and the other feels rejection from everyone but their father)

I think the reason Stanford is still a little salty isn’t that Stanley ruined his machine. It’s that Stanley didn’t apologize and instead brought up treasure hunting. I mean, if my sibling ruined something that cost me something huge, then didn’t even apologize, I’d be kinda pissed too. That’s just my take on it

You've nailed it, trust me, it's not your take exclusively, many people think like that too. The problem isn't even the project or college itself, it's the fact that Stan betrayed Ford: he might not have destroyed the project on purpose, that's true, but sneaking inside the school at night to "yell at a project and hitting it", then cover his tracks and not telling him anything, and once confronted about it, shrugging it off, not apologizing or even showing any sign of guilt and telling him to do with him what HE wanted from the start with a huge happy smile, those are not accidents. To Ford, it felt like Stan had sabotaged him only because he couldn't handle the thought of Ford doing something different than they both did as kids and not having him there to rely on anymore, so when Stan does all of this to Ford, costing him his dreams and not even showing a pitch of remorse over it, showing happiness instead, felt to Ford like a huge betrayal, not just destroying his dreams, but the only stable relationship Ford ever had in his life. Of course Ford is pissed and resentful at Stan over this. Pitty that most people just think Ford is being petty and throwing a fit over nothing.

Despite his many flaws, I do feel for Stan in this. He's spent years making terrible life choices that drove him further and further down, and when he thinks he's getting a chance to reconcile with his estranged twin brother, it's only because Ford wants him to do something for him. It's because Ford is extending his trust to Stan, sure, but he doesn't seem to get how Stan would realistically react to this. The real rift is because they grew up into two different people and couldn't overcome those differences. Then Ford gets trapped in another dimension and Stan spends the next 30 years desperately trying to find a way to rescue him. It's a really compelling sibling tragedy and you really get invested in how they'll progress from here.

He literally just told Stan that his research could potentially destroy the world, but when Stan tried to burn the journal, Ford stopped him saying his research was too important, highlighting his narcissism as he prioritized his work over the entire world. Plus he could have just copied all the journals without the portal blueprints and destroyed the originals, showing Ford’s shortsightedness.

I wanted to say other thing, but I am just going to rant: It is easy to see Dipper and Ford as "the rationals" and Mabel and Stan as "the emotionals", and although that is true, that is a very, VERY shallow explanation. People shit on Mabel for almost causing the end of the world to a sickening degree. They call her inmature and selfish. Even when everything turned out fine, people hate Mabel and that angers me so much. Stan almost caused the end of the world, TWICE, because all he wanted was to reconect with his brother. And guess what, everything turned out fine, yet nobody gives him any shit for that. Ford was very self centered and selfish. Yes, Stan ruined his school project and his school opportunities at the time, but his life? He is in front of a machine thag defies reality, goes beyond the current science, something so uncomprehensible that the word that defines it is "weird". He didn't make sense out of the weird, as science does; he took a word that we use only to point out what we don't understand and made it an object of study. He didn't clarify the weird, he outright studied and comprehended "weirdness" as a thing in itself. He vanished his brother, the person who loved him the most, from his "now ruined life" and yet Ford life was completely fine. Meanwhile Stan lived as a fugitive. He traveled around the world, not as a success, but out of necessity, out of survival. Yet, he survived however he could, emphasis on COULD. His talents were not as obvious and evident as his brother's, but he survived. Ford was discovering and getting close to what he realized was an existencial treat to the universe, but he was living, not surviving. Stan became a masterful lier, trickster and deciver, but that was his talent. It is not obviously virtuous, but eventually he could do good with it. He saved the universe because he was a better lier, deciever and trickster than Bill Cipher. Ford could not do that with all the inteligence he had, and probably wouldn't have gone along with Stan's plan of switching clothes. And this was not in any scene, but I can easily picture Ford giving in Stan's plan as the only hope saying "I trust you". (I am getting very upset over a children show, dear god) Now, Dipper obviously is smarter, way smarter than Mabel. He is a genius ffs. But he was also being selfish with the whole Ford being his mentor thing. Yes, it was his dream, just as Ford also had a dream that he couldn't see how he could accomplish after the Stan debacle. And yet, even if he (Ford) didn't realized it, he was living it. Come on guys, Dipper could do the same for his life without Mabel, and he knew it. But, you know why Ford didn't know that his dream became truth, and started to get closer to a nightmare? Because he didn't have Stan to tell him so, because he sure as hell would have seen that, and would have made Ford know it. Yes, Mabel was inside a pocket dimension where she had a "cooler Dipper". And yes, that is the most hurtful thing she could have done to Dipper. But you bet your ass that Stanley would have done the same in their youth. Does it justify it? No, that is a dick move, but he would have done it because he was inmature and in a lot of pain, since the person he cared about the most just told him to f' off forever. You remember that scene, at the final battle, when Stan and Ford are trapped in that pyramid prison while Bill is chasing Dipper and Mabel? Ford laments that the two of them couldn't have the connection that Dipper and Mabel have. Stan says "They're kids. They don't know any better". And you know? He is right! They were kids, they loved each other and would do anything for each other. But that was almost not the case. Cracks started to appear the day Mabel "out of selfishness started the Weirdmageddon". The dynamic between Stan and Ford is the same dynamic Dipper and Mabel would have had if Bill had had more patience. They would have grown appart, they would have hurt each other, and THEN Bill would have won. I don't know if that is the conclusion of that GF video essay about Bill's Fatal mistake. I haven't watched it, but if it is, I swear this was not intentional. What I really wanted to get across is that Mabel doesn't deserve a fraction of all the hate she gets. Stan is a reflection of her, and Ford is a reflection of Dipper, and neither of them get any hate even when all their actions are equal in weight and final consequenses. I always felt that Mabel was unfairly hated but never could tell why. But this isolated scene made it finally click and gosh I got so angry over hate towards a fictional character, I need to sleep.

I didn't know if he was dead or alive in some distant galaxy, but I knew his journal must have the answer to getting him back. Somehow. 2:40
