Rick and Morty S06 E09 Full Length Reaction

After Rick brought the AI sword that he trained on movies I half expected the turn in the episode to be that Rick is an AI bot that learned how to be nicer from movies and then real Rick comes back and makes fun of Morty for buying it. 😁 I don't know why but the scene in the garage just made me have this uncanny feeling. A wrong feeling lol but eh still. Ah almost forgot...yes I definitely empathize with character a LOT...I cry happy tears I cry sad tears I cry excited tears but for some reason fear doesn't get me AT ALL...like I can deeply feel most things in movies sometimes even more than in real life because I can just let go and feel everything unlike in life where you have to hold it together to some degree in some situations or you die lol. But yeah I don't know, I do like watching horror and slasher movies but they don't scare me there's just some disconnect that won't let me suspend disbelief when it comes to fear. I'm the WORST person to bring into a haunted house type thing because I just walk through it in a bored manner...some stuff can startle me sure but that's not fear. We have a theme park here in Germany and years ago they had a haunted house where at the end like a bloody butcher guy with a running chainsaw comes running at you and all I can think in my head is "They're not allowed to touch us this is so stupid I hope I didn't ruin it for the other people". And honestly I probably didn't because they were still squealing like piglets the whole way through and ran from the chainsaw guy. I'm sad now I wanna be scared too :(

yeah he was one of the knights of the sun

I love hearing about your job mate, how are travelers this time of year? Like do you meet a lot of nice people going to see family for the holidays and stuff, or the exact opposite, just chaos and rudeness? I really feel like it could go either way with plane passengers! The service industry has been the latter 99% of the time, I have been cussed out an almost unusual amount recently😂 That’s great that you get time to go see the folks though, has it been a while since you last saw them?

It’s weird, I feel you on the “putting yourself in any characters shoes and feeling what they feel” because this episode kinda stressed me out too😅 and I cry almost anytime someone cries in tv or film etc. because I think I just instantly connect with that yk. But yeah, anyways when I was younger, especially in high school I was pressured by peers at sleepovers to watch a lot of movies like Saw and the Final Destination movies for example. I hated it but I think it desensitised me a little bit, there’s definitely a line though! There’s still some deaths from the saw movies that haunt me to this day, anything to do with being confined or burned or anything, like NOPE😂 I think a lot of it comes down to how the movie is made and certainly shot, like Saw isn’t very stylish in its execution (no pun intended) so I think it gives it a much more realistic and immersive experience, which is why some of it still sticks with me. Whereas I can watch, say that last part of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and not bat an eye, due to the comedic elements and the much lighter mood. I think that was a very long-winded way of me saying YES, I do relate to that, and my friends in high school kinda sucked😂

Just to start I really love your jumper, I feel like that’s my go-to phrase to end a message to someone so it just made me smile, also it’s just really cute with the flowers!🥹 Yeah I don’t even know what I wanna say about this episode, I’m glad that all of Morty’s body parts were still attached by the end of this one, none in particular I’d like to mention😂 I feel like the animators work so freaking hard these days, not that they haven’t always done, but this one was just so crazy and in so many different locations and had so many quick shots that probably took so long to put together. I really did think at one point Morty was just gonna shoot Rick for being a total imposter, like who was that guy?! He was so nice and considerate to Morty and his feelings in so many different instances, kinda freaky😂 I guess Rick really has been knocked down a peg or twelve these past couple of seasons, so maybe this actually is the start of a healthier relationship between the two? We can dream I guess! The quick cut to Morty sobbing over the prospect of losing his dick was so funny, that might’ve been my favourite part actually lol!

well, I'll save my commentary for next week about this episode lol. However gotta say love Daniel Radcliffe as a voice actor. He may always be Harry Potter first in my mind but he's done enough to distinguish himself. Sorry to go on a fan boy rant but he's damn good. The plot on it's own is sub par.

woo can't wait for the reaction to the finale
