#monsterdon Not crazy, just ... selling a sham-wow.

What was the point of falling down the stairs? If only the pencil had gone through his temple...

#monsterdon

Aww, you broke the poor kid's heart!

OC-Cult powers

#monsterdon

Listen, daddio!!

Only the heppest of hep-cats could discover Cargonite!

"I was sore from all the penetration" #monsterdon

So what ELSE did you ask the genie for? #Monsterdon

"Something happened to my equipment then there was a fire..." sure sure...
#monsterdon #4dman1959

One, that is a book, gift-wrapped in reflective wrapping paper. And two, you cut that pencil in half and glued it to the block. #Monsterdon #4DMan1959

Alchemy! Rebar! Pencils! #Monsterdon

You drilled a hole in metal then crammed a pencil in.
All your science grants should be given to pandas.
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959 random slapstick? wtf ok

Well, she's psychic ,he can melt metals together... are they going to open up an ESP-powered tank factory for McDonald Douglas or Grumman?

#monsterdon

these fuckers are absolutely gonna let emile lizardo out of the 8th dimension and there's no buckaroo banzai in this universe to save them

#monsterdon #4Dman1959

oh now Tony's on psychic track too

#monsterdon

#monsterdon this was the original Dick van Dyke Show opening, but audiences found it too alarming when he fell down the stairs and entered the 4th dimension

"I did with my magical mind penetration powers!" #monsterdon

The clock was showing midnight when this scene started. It's still showing midnight.

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959

You did hwat?
I hwilled it!
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon👨 ⬆️ ↔️ 🔄 ⏲️ 🧱 👨 😱

Tony, I was sore too.

Was his fall supposed to be funny? Was that ad lib?
(yawn)
#Monsterdon

pencil mingling with steel

#monsterdon

Oops! Desktop fusion
#Monsterdon #4DMan

ATOMIC FIELDS

ATOMIC FORCE FIELDS!

#monsterdon

Proper record keeping would have prevented all this...

#monsterdon
#4Dman1959

Comedy pratfall set to a wacky soundtrack? What is this mad science movie even?
#Monsterdon #4Dman

But what about kalkite? #Monsterdon #4dman1959

#monsterdon You just want to fiddle in the dark naked and afraid. You little bizzznotch…

the pen(cil) is stronger than the carconite

#monsterdon #4Dman1959

this is too scientific for me to tell
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Tonight we watched an old film about a man who was obsessed with penetrating things.

Yep. That's penetration all right.
#Monsterdon

Forget having them talk about something other than a man, will we even see a second woman in the movie at all?

#Monsterdon

That tumble was a good set up! #Monsterdon

That was pretty close to a Batman transition sting #monsterdon

I don't mean just lead and gold, *hat and cane* I mean a bona fide certified genuine cargonite!

#Monsterdon

Heavy Smoking Queer

I've known a few of those

Dear fuck scott, if the 4th Dimension doesn't kill you, smoking will!

#Monsterdon

@SnoopJ I didn't see it, but maybe there was a blink and you miss it before the fire?

#Monsterdon #4Dman1959

Um, the Paris Conservatory is a music school. They usually produce things like Berlioz and Saint-Saëns, not lead fused with gold #Monsterdon

"What if I could penetrate your cargonite" ... yeah, this copy is running a bit longer than some of y'all

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959

Jazz music and a dick van dyke pratfall? #monsterdon

“I could penetrate it with a small piece of wood.”

Size isn’t important, Tony. #monsterdon

He went all Dick Van Dyke there #Monsterdon

another classic case of LLM psychosis

#Monsterdon

"I've done it," he said. You know, like a liar.

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959

Damn, Scott smokes like a chimney.
#monsterdon
#4dman1959

Tony seems like he can penetrate a lot with a small piece of wood. #monsterdon #4dman1959

"That trick was old in 1860, bro."

#monsterdon #4Dman1959

He’s really into penetrating things.

#Monsterdon

This was sci-fi back then. What if metals with extraordinary properties! Like adamantine in Dwarf Fortress! #Monsterdon #4DMan1959

did he actually do it previously, or was that a just-off-camera event? I was in-and-out for a bit

Edit: oh okay, "4 years ago"

#Monsterdon

Speeding up solid diffusion probably has a number of useful applications in materials science.

#Monsterdon #4Dman1959

They should Penetrate the point of this movie script....

#monsterdon

"...what if I could penetrate it with a small piece of wood"
snickers

#Monsterdon #4DMan

What would you say if I told you I could cut a tin can with it? #Monsterdon #4Dman

#monsterdon stop saying penetrate

There is nothing I can not penetrate!
#monsterdon

We still have over 1 hour left in this movie.
#Monsterdon

This movie does not deserve this soundtrack

#Monsterdon

Little loose but I'll take this bingo

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959 #MonsterdonBingo

Probably 10 takes, 10 cigarettes *hack* #monsterdon

This movie is wackier than I expected. #Monsterdon #4DMan1959

Heavy jewelry for everyone! #Monsterdon

Were they at the European museum or…?

#monsterdon #4Dman1959

someone get the bigus dickus meme out #monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie Scottgardon was right there. #Monsterdon #4DMan1959 🎥🍿

THRILL as a whiny argument between unappealing brothers EXPLODES across the silver screen! Oh, and something sciency happens too. I guess. #Monsterdon

@old_angry_queer "Practice, practice, practice!"

#monsterdon #4Dman1959

Oh impenetrable 🙄 #Monsterdon #4DMan

Tony is a bit of a fire bug always wanting to blow something up or set something on fire. #monsterdon #4dman1959

Tony is now finally prepared for his sales pitch.

#monsterdon

"You just want to fool around with your theories like a 16th century alchemist." Honestly, same.

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959

Spock, what do you think about penetrating Cargonite?

#monsterdon

The world's first DEPENDABLE metal. Cause you can't count on those other metals

#Monsterdon #4DMan

Is Cargonite love proof though?

#monsterdon
#4DMan

@moira how do you know?

#monsterdon

Impenetrable metal? I'm pretty sure the Swedes have already created plenty of heavy metal that's already impenetrable. 🤘

#monsterdon #4dman

Oh dang, I *DO* know him! In my grimy evangelical past, I grew up watching Billy Graham Evangelistic Association films [sic], and Carmichael scored twenty of those films! #Monsterdon

"i'm going to penetrate your cargonite"

#monsterdon

i imagine having to leave before you burst out laughing at an authority figure's incompetence was an experience many women had in 1959.

#monsterdon #4DMan1959

Cargonite's description (or lack thereof) is making me think of mystery boxes

#Monsterdon #4Dman1959

I paid for everything, so in a *way*, I am solely responsible for everything that happens here. #Monsterdon #4DMan1959

Why is her badge all up her neck like that?
#monsterdon
#4dman1959

Tony, stop saying penetrate. #Monsterdon

IT CAN BE PENETRATED

ASK ME HOW I KNOW

#monsterdon #4Dman1959

Hey! There's actually an area where smoking was prohibited!

#monsterdon

Come on, when is this going to switch to 4d? I bought a special 4d TV from eBay just for this!
#Monsterdon

ducking out of the press interview after being named is...

not gonna get you any opportunities to be asked questions, Scott.

#monsterdon

“Will this rare thing you just manufactured in a single lab setting be able to replace a readily available resource for which we already have extensive infrastructure?”

#Monsterdon

Tony looks a little like Robert Sean Leonard.

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959

#monsterdon
#4Dman1959
Carbomite, as in maneuvers?

#monsterdon What will be the uses for Cargonite?

Could we freeze Han Solo in it?

@xerozohar Ohhhhhhhh. That makes...sense?

#monsterdon #4DMan1959

@Taweret Yeah, seems a strange backdrop in a film full of gainfully employed folks. #Monsterdon #4DMan1959 🎥🍿

GODDAMMIT JUST BE A MUSICAL ALREADY YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO!!!

#Monsterdon

@LuluHelle unclear if anyone in this movie is thinking at all

#Monsterdon #4DMan1959

"This is the world's most advanced coffee cake! LOOOK at the cinnamon! LOOOK at the glazing!"

#4dMan1959 #Monsterdon

@Taweret Not beatnik music because the band is too big and the vibe is too commercial.

#monsterdon

And thus Cargonite, the new radioactive Wonder Bread. #monsterdon

#monsterdon Tony came out of the metal closet. LOL
