@brooke The frequency at which PhD's have to say "not that type of doctor" is surprisingly high...
Oh hat. I thought he was going to buy HALF of Texas.
Grandpa's chicken is my favorite character so far #monsterdon
#monsterdon Is that turtle ok?
OK what is it with this kid and Texas
A boy and his secret alien slug from the mysterious rocket. For sale to the old zoologist, cheap! #Monsterdon #20MillionMilesToEarth
And your grandson will be a masculine son!
Oh, the kid's MERCENARY, not Gamera-raising, I can respect that. #Monsterdon
Mmmmm - inedible clams!
@yatsu Ounces and tons work that way so why not, let's just blindly assume all units are as malleable 😛
A doctor of people with hurts. I guess that's how he's asking if she's a real doctor or some fucking PhD in bronze age textiles or something. #monsterdon #20millionmilestoearth
it's a literally-a a Mario! #Monsterdon
@randy_s _drop and run_ xD
#Monsterdon The moustache and hat. He's Mario, right?
Boy that kid is a hella bargainer. #Monsterdon
Space mortadella #monsterdon
Uh oh. Opened up their space aspic. There's probably like, olives and pickles in there or something. #Monsterdon #20MillionMilesToEarth
... or just open it right away. Yep. Weird slimy slug? Take *that* home instead! #monsterdon
Nice fleshlight, kid #monsterdon #20millionmilestoearth
I will name this sea larvae George. I will love him, and hug him ...
SPACE PICKLE #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Do NOT eat the worm! That was not tequila, kid!
Oh ick. That's one *gooey* egg :/ #Monsterdon
Oh yeah. That's some ✅ emphatic gesturing. Quality gesturing.
a small kilometer. as opposed to a big kilometer? i mean, i am an american, but i don't think that's how kilometers work, right? (^^) #monsterdon
Seniooooooorrrrrr... crappé. I see.
Turns out, the monster this whole time was... the doctor with a house on wheels.
Sealed cylinder with 'USAF PROJECT' stencilled on it? A splendid and perfectly safe find - better take it home, I imagine! #monsterdon
Aw hell, Pepe's gonna try to Gamera this bitch, kid that's a *serious gamble* in a film like this :/ #Monsterdon
Ah, Pepe, always finding the, eh, howyousay, drowning-a victims #monsterdon
ok the presence of not-comically accented italians indicates that this is in fact a sicilian stereotype thing #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Gestures. Mark in on the bingo card
@Zerofactorial there was an alien? I think? #monsterdon
Kid finds the biggest pneumatic tube ever!
Kid, didn't your father ever tell you not to handle sample containers? #Monsterdon
@aburka Was there a monster already? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Okay, #Monsterdoners: we are 12 minutes in - and NO COFFEE! I'm not sure what to make of this.
@Zerofactorial plus, wrong movie! #monsterdon
So that tiny fishing village is on that giant map of the world? #Monsterdon
Usually we get paid for the fish we catch
20000 leagues under the sea doesn't refer to depth you beribboned doof, it's the distance travelled by Captain Nemo #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Map of the world with tiny fishing villages. Nice.
The Doctor? UNIT has Americans?
Lol, your giant earth map clearly has absolutely nothing marked where you pointed out the clearly labeled "tiny fishing village named Jerra". #monsterdon #20millionmilestoearth
yabettertellemtorolluptheenunciationtapeandputitinadrawer #monsterdon
I like how the general needed someone to point out where Sicily is on the map. #monsterdon
#monsterdon 20k leagues under the sea? Wrong Film there Admiral Macbook Pro
Okay, so the Sicilians didn’t know about Texas to establish why they also wouldn’t know about America’s giant interplanetary rocket.
"there it is right there."
but sir, that map is so small and the ship is so big?
#monsterdon
That is a really odd choice of map projection isn't it?
@Configures That's too realistic, movie logic dictates anything realistic doesn't happen
"...you're saying they're sleeping with the fishes?"
Nice shots of the craft. I like the aesthetic. Very impressive for 1957.
@trixter And what about all the grenades and rocket launchers!? #Monsterdon #20MillionMilesToEarth
20000 leagues under the sea #monsterdon #20MillionMilesToEarth
The ship sleeps with the fishes. #Monsterdon
Wow, these guys need to go back to telemetry school
At the center of our solar system is a large fire bell... #Monsterdon
"Best we can figure, she crashed somewhere right here..." he said, waving vaguely in the general direction of the map. Presumably this means the ship did in fact crash on Earth somewhere?
Man, MacIntosh is downright elfin. Look at those ears! #Monsterdon
Rocket ship that big sinking underwater right by the fishing boat would have created a vortex that sucked the fishing boat down too, right? #Monsterdon #20MillionMilesToEarth
The pentagon has the neatest toys #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Sir, stop playing with your toys.
Why is there an old timey fire alarm bell #monsterdon #20millionmilestoearth
"She's splashed in right here." That's what she said! #monsterdon #20millionmilestoearth
@Taweret Very different style from that other Italian #monsterdon film with the high fashion and bubbling lava. Must be the difference between Sicily and Milan
one of the side effects of hiring actors of a nation to play characters from another nation that speaks a totally different language is awful and hilarious fake accents
we're italian over here. so we're catholic.mamma mia. hey, fuggetaboutit
There had to be more than two men in there! There must have at least been a woman to serve them coffee! #Monsterdon
Ah yes, A.D. MacIntosh, I bet he's mealy and tasteless too. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon My science fair project is going to win first prize!
Hey, guys, I'm really going to try to do this #monsterdon Bingo tonight, so if you guys could just reduce your tootstream by half...
There it goes! He got out in the nick of time! #Monsterdon
"I Crashed in a helmet saying USAF, in an actual rocket doing air forcey thing"
1950s VA: "your disability is not service related"
#Monsterdon Now it sinks?! Now? What was holding it up before?
Hey that long shot's actually not a bad processed shot, good job guys #Monsterdon
@jonny ahhh yes thanks I am noticing the audio issues myself
Downloading the good version now so I can swap
@socketwench load-bearing corpses, very important in spaceflight
careful kid, you're about to beat that poor a-man upside the head with the oar. #monsterdon
Starship animation by Terry Gilliam. #Monsterdon
hey, we're italian over here. we pulla the people from the spaceship. fuggetaboutit
Why's the kid gotta do all the rowing?
row! row! row your boat! #monsterdon
Ship's collapsing like they just beat Ridley. Better get out before the timer ends. #Monsterdon
@diazona that one just had really bitcrushed audio and slightly blurry transcode artifacts, but it's better than the third one which is squashed to 4:3 #monsterdon
"...where we're going, you won't need helmets"
Where do they put the fish in those tiny boats? #Monsterdon
Once again, the sci fi spaceship set is just the interior of a power plant. Sigh. #monsterdon #20millionmilestoearth
I lost my pilot!! I lost my ship!! Johnny has his pilot! Johnny has his ship! you want I should take my heartbreak, put it away and forget???
#monsterdon
well, let's face it, Americans are about as odd as aliens, especially in Europe. #monsterdon
@apLundell nah they're quite rationally staying out of range of the nitrogen tetroxide fumes https://www.popularmechanics.com/space/rockets/a33498696/private-boats-invade-spacex-splashdown-zone-risks/ #monsterdon
Now they're getting somewhere, they've made it to the boiler room of the spaceship #monsterdon
@moira Maybe we reverse-engineered rivets and telephones from an earlier crashed spaceship
#monsterdon Wait, they're human?
oh wait not even joking okay n/m
Oh jeez, it's the inside of the spaceship from The Creeping Terror D: #Monsterdon
