Scott acts like the guys in the physics lab who would walk into the accelerator during an experiment to adjust the target. #monsterdon
ALL HAIL HYPNOBOX
didnβt know Chris Parnell was in this movie #monsterdon
They're microwaving the popcorn for the movies that night.
Mmmm, sexy scientist. Can't get through the day without sexual harassment. #monsterdon
I think I know the trouble. I went to high school with your grandfather
What is this music, the Pink Panther in the 4th dimension?
That guard looks like he couldn't stop a determined Girl Scout with a crate of cookies.
#monsterdon This briefly skirted a XXX Gay Parody... aw, 1959... so repressed.
"Fine, I'll fuck off then...jfc...."
Dude, if smoke coming out of your computers makes you go to the 4th dimension, I've been in the 4th dimension many times.
#monsterdon
Naming a supporting character Mr Wells is the grandpa of 00s slashers where all the teen characters have names like Wes Hitchcock
I mean when has trying to press a chopstick into a sheet of metal NOT ended in fiery doom
#monsterdon "Oh no."
"Maybe the inventions we discovered were the friends we made along the way!"
"You're fired."

βοΈ 4D TRIVIA π₯Όπ§β’οΈ
πΈ This is the film debut of Lee Meriwether, Miss America 1955, playing Linda Davis, scientist in lab coat working for rogue scientist.
Soon she will appear on The Time Tunnel, as scientist Dr. Ann MacGregor - in a lab coat working for a rogue scientist.
But in this film will she perform the critical role of getting the coffee? Our Bingo cards want to know.
My first #monsterdon!
The fourth dimension is clearly the dimension of jazz. #Monsterdon
mr wells, my lab is on fire, could you CHILL.
@Bluedepth yassss
The Towering Inferno⦠of horn sections!! #Monsterdon
A man working with all the confidence of a mediocre white man. #monsterdon
The sign clearly said No Smoking.
I too enjoy some not very thematic music when I have to use a fire extinguisher!
(No, I've never lit a fire in the lab serious enough to need one.)
That's a prodigious magic smoke release.
Crank those knobs up to 11
#Monsterdon
#4DMan
Well that fire escalated quickly
#monsterdon I hate to be a bitch, but... uh, Pauli Exclusion Principle is kinda sitting over here in the corner going β1959 ya bitchβ¦β
Very realistic fire
So, the scientific way you pass one thing through another is simply by knowing it can be so?
Try upping the momentum differences between your materials, so pauli exclusion will allow smaller position distances
My oily rags and newspaper collection! NO! NOOOOOOO
a man a plan a canal panama #Monsterdon
Magnets how do they work?
This is how I felt last week trying to fix my computer
Props for a box with knobs on it labelled in sharpie, as is proper for electronics experimentation. #monsterdon
A man, a plan, Panama!
A man, a plan, panama man
"A man, a plan, a canal... Panama!"
Red square of paper taped to the wall?
I want a lab...
That into music is way too good for us.
and here i am without my 4-D glasses
Gotta get out my π 4D jazz hands π for this one
Great opening music.
Hey, is this that music where we get to do The Twist again?
This is a beatnik documentary. #monsterdon
Best intro music EVER
Zap, pow! Hep daddy-o!
You're listening to the smooth jazz of The 4-D Man Radio #monsterdon
So this is the Pink Panther short before the movie? #Monsterdon
I feel like weβre listening to the opening of the Pink Panther.
In C-O-L-O-R #monsterdon
Representing Lemmy, Mastodon's fediverse sibling, for #monsterdon !!!
A saucy jazz number to start!!
ZIP
POW
BASH
went the credits.
#monsterdon
Okay, got my 4D glasses ready!
#monsterdon
So if I put on 3-D glasses and did a lot of shrooms could I see 4-D? #monsterdon
Ok, #Monsterdon #MondayActionMovie #FridayThrillerClub #KungFuSat folks chime in!
4-D Man v Rambo
'Can your heart stand the _shocking_ facts about the case of M. Valdemar!?'
also doctor concrete or conkite or whatever offering him money sounded like evil captain kirk offering good universe spock money and whatever else he wants to get out of the brig
@Louisa thatβs who i was tagging as a sort of Dr. Spaceman era Chris Parnell #monsterdon
@davesdogmaggie I second it! #Monsterdon #4DMan1959 π₯πΏ
For those of you scrolling through your timeline, you're about to hit a big mass of Monsterdon postings about 4D Man (1959) and the second, Wrong Frogs feature.
Should you not wish to read through them, here's how to filter them out, at least on the web browser:
1) right click on the gears & open in a new tab
2) choose "Filters" then "Add New Filter"
3) give the filter a title, check all boxes under contexts, choose hide completely and put "#Monsterdon" in the keyword box.
4) Click on "Save New Filter"
... and you're done.
@davesdogmaggie I'd watch the crap outta that! #monsterdon
#monsterdon the lab tech who creeped on Linda at the beginning and then spilled the secrets looks like an actor and I can picture his face but can't remember where I've seen it, and it's killing me
Law & Order maybe?? Dang it
Motion to rename this movie βThe Corganite Maneuverβ.
@Louisa like that kind of makes Tony the real genius in the family (and got doted on or something for it) and Scott's competent and actually does the work but still feels inferior and frustrated and that'd be okay _except_ Dr. Cronkite or whatever keeps taking that away too, right? that makes some of what we see make more emotional sense to me anyway
@Louisa and then scott could at the end go to the boss and be like "i won't be drained anymore, i'm going to leave this lab and also this babe and go be undrainable" #monsterdon
@diazona 4D man could roofie a drink that had a thumb covering the bottle opening! I mean, with all those murders it definitely seems plausible. #Monsterdon #4DMan1959
@Louisa nobody ever commented on how there were two brothers where one could create impenetrable objects and one could penetrate anything and suspect they might be linked or anything. #monsterdon
@moira I thought it was for emergency delta-V on unplanned-untethered spacewalks. As might happen during the zero-G duel between protag and antag. #Monsterdon #4DMan1959
Our hero has fucked off into a wall, possibly to bleed to death from his obvious bullet wound? Unclear? Anyway. This one was my last one from home for a while, so I'm looking forward to having to scoot my phone under my office monitor stand when there's boobies. Goodnight #monsterdon, give thanks to @Taweret who makes the organizing happen, and see y'all next week!
@Terencio @strangefour I hear there's a vas deferense #monsterdon
So Jellyfin just goes from one film to the next. And thanks to alphabetic sorting it went from "4D Man" to Airplane (1978). And now that's what we're watching for a little while...
#monsterdon
I can't watch this new one, but 4D Man was fun. Thanks to all who make it happen.
@apLundell In my telling of the story, the wall he gets stuck in at the end is storing Cargonite.
That might be a total miss-read, but I think it's funny, so I'm sticking with it.
Especially when the minimum wage workers you get to clean it get superpowers...
@cd0 no one ever sees βitβ coming, whatever βitβ happens to be (Especially the ending). Thatβs the beauty and curse of #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #4DMan1959 and it just ends.
ok
well uh
don't kill people if you get stuck in your in the fourth dimension, kids!
Some after movie lobby music. #Monsterdon #4Dman
I guess it helps to make your movie under a major studio -- you get access to a good music department and a host of character actors.
Everything but someone who could punch up the script.
I did appreciate seeing character actor Guy Raymond though, a staple of my TV watching youth.
@overholt yeah I was going sayβafter killing 10 people, how do you bounce back from that π #monsterdon
thanks to all the #monsterdon hosts for a wonderful night at the movies #4dman1959 ! <3<3<3
That sure was some sort of moving picture thing with an interesting choice in music and some pretty bad acting. Rot{scope special effects were a surprise, a little better then we usually get on monsterdon
#Monsterdon #4DMan #MonsterdonBingo
That was a nutty one, so much zany music. Thanks @Taweret !
#Monsterdon
Wow, that really was something. What, I don't know, but something.
Thanks for making a boring movie with the most ill-conceived soundtrack maybe in history fun. Y'all are the real 4D folks, and the Owlbear loves you.
Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, and listen to better jazz.
Goodnight!
Well that had moments that were really good. The music is gonna be stuck in my head for days. But it was very slow to start. Most of the 4D effects that were camera tricks and not just green screen wear great.
If it wasn't for Linda at the end there I'd probably say this was the worst movie we've done this year. But it's just fine if mostly dull.
#Monsterdon #4Dman
@Taweret I assume he died inside the wall. The power probably stopped upon death because he brain signals stopped too... #Monsterdon #4DMan1959 π₯πΏ
βYou didnβt hurt me! Nothing can hurt me! You didnβt hurt me! Nothing can stop me now!β one can only assume an impressionable young lad named Trent Reznor got some of his first lyrical inspirations from watching this #Monsterdon
I enjoyed the jazz in this movie
But it really only ever had one mood, pretty much. Peppy mayhem
@jivens Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read #WrongJoke #monsterdon
@YsengrinWolf Yes, that's where I thougtht it was going somehow (I didn't expect her to kill him *with a gun*, though!) #Monsterdon #4DMan1959
That sure was a thing.
#monsterdon A QUESTION MARK!! fuck you movie lol
I can go a long time without hearing bongos again.
Thank you @Taweret and everyone for another
#Monsterdon
THE
FUCK
?
Nothing can hurt him! - except schtupping his brother
