iirc they ran out of money and weren't even able to make it look the way they intended. Like they planned for it to have a 5th face or wanted to do full bodies or something like that but they couldn't get it done
They didn't bother to check what the mountain was made of. The answer was granite.
They thought they knew what it was made of, but took their assumptions for granite
Are you saying granite? It's granted, with a D. Take things for granted. Did you actually think it was... Jesus Christ Rick, what are you a boulder, a rock person? How long have you been saying that wrong?
What, you can erase my memories?
It's a common rock pun, saying granite instead of granted.
From my understanding, they didn't do the planned 5th head because of structural integrity issues with the stone. But yeah there's probably something to that lack of funds situation as well.
