Tony! You and I managed to pass through the same object!
[Excerpt from The Linda Project, Redacted file 18.9-B]
"oh this is so embarrassing, I've got my hand stuck in solid metal again...."
*in a fit of jealousy, Scott breaks into Tony's locker at the lab and attempts to replicate his methodology for jamming a pencil through a solid block of metal. He succeeds! Too well! His hand is stuck through the block!*
Scott has just revolutionized the crime of raiding the cookie jar
lol, ever been so high your hand passed through an object?
And then getting stuck, I was terrified of that sort of thing as a child for some reason, 'teleporting' always carried an element of fear.
I'd take the shuttle, like Dr McCoy.
I appreciate the intense jazz breaks where I know it's safe to look away and toot
wow, the soundtrack kinda matches the events on-screen, for once
@cargot_robbie Unsure if we can call it a "sub"plot at this point given that nothing else seems to be happening
I hope Scott gets to be the 4-D man. That'd be at least a bit of intrigue.
The job comes with a swell axe! #Monsterdon
threesome in the 4th dimension
#Monsterdon
ya kno, if they cut all the dialogue and just played the Jazz, this'd be a better movie...
romantic drama π₯±
I tried "Willing" my grant proposals but it didn't work.

@SnoopJ Put a layer around super kamiokande and count the neutrinos?
Nice. The actress playing the promiscuous lab assistant won the 1955 Miss America pageant and later replaced Julie Newmar as Catwoman in the theatrical film Batman (1966).

less romance, more Superscience please.
You can really hear that rain
I don't know that I'm going to be able to put up with this music, y'all. Many and heavy are the sins for which you must answer, Carmichael.
Thanks, @cherizilla.
This is what we did before the Internet
Apparently he thinks walking thru walls is the only way out of the closet...
@bunnyhero Amway brand Burt Reynolds isn't without some charm/charisma. #monsterdon
#monsterdon Why does anyone wear ties if they aren't properly set? They're just there to be a hazard in front of a console paper shredder. Yum yum silk and neck yumβ¦
"Scott, remember the Demon Core...Scott!"
They are working on next generation Brylcreem. #monsterdon
I have the square βThe Hero is an Assβ on my #MonsterdonBingo card, and we're only 8 minutes into the film, but Iβm going to mark it off. Iβve seen all I need to see; heβs an ass.
You can tell the white guys apart because of their jackets

"From now on I'm going to try the caveman approach."
"And I'll try the French Revolution approach."
"What's the French Revolution approach?"
"It involves beheading you. Now get out of my office."
No request to see ID. Just the word of a white man who says heβs Dr. Nelsonβs brother is good enough for the security guard.
It's stupid and a bunch of 'screnplay science' but I'm more into it than I should be. #monsterdon
Rod Serling told someone "no" and they went and made a whole movie, didn't they
This is a hep, happenin' intro to the 1959 flick baby. I'm diggin' it.
@CactuarJoe Huh, I thought there was one scene near the beginning where somebody mentioned Scott and Linda being a couple (and having been so for a while), in such a way that if either of them thought otherwise it would have been mentioned π€·
Plus there was that conversation in the middle where Tony and Linda talk about this being the second time he "steals" one of Scott's girlfriends
I thought the reason she was shocked at Scott's proposal was that, at that point, she knew that Scott knew she was going after Tony and she either expected Scott to realize their relationship was over, or had actually broken up with him (offscreen).
But yeah if Scott and Linda were not together in the beginning then that all looks very different
Every vote counts.
Should β4-D Manβ be renamed βThe Corganite Maneuverβ?
@diazona Oh heck! Very good to know!
i find it really funny how the one thing that can bring most moderately large instances to their knees for extended periods of time is b-movies
That's right, they totally ditched the discount Rod Serling narrator from the start of the movie.
His contract ran out quicker than I expected.
@Violinknitter Linda saved the day! #Monsterdon
@diazona I love it so much. They don't make 'em like that very often. Apparently I took for granted the way it actually fits with the narrative
This is what I watch #Monsterdon to see. Badly paced, interesting sci-fi concepts with cool sound effects. And some surprising character switches. And cool jazz. Thanks @Taweret, @Cherizilla and @JoeWynne for another great flick.
@bryanhowell this is one of those "silent films" that are all the rage these days
ersatz Rod Serling for the intro VO
All of this movie is told in voiceover. Nobody's lips move.
@strangefour I've felt like doing that at some social situations #Monsterdon
Update: She killed him
Having the woman save the day is cool.
One has to ask, if Tony hadn't Jolene'd his brother Scott, would he have turned into the monster he did?
I think Tony is the culprit here. He couldn't hold back his babe-winning ways.
intermission, featuring dying geese
I liked it. I might have loved it. I'm ready for Son of 4D Man
Well, that's how it goes daddio
my dons have been thoroughly monstered. my monsters have been thoroughly donned? done? thoroughly done? anyways, bad movie was bad
That was actually pretty good. I would watch this again! Thank you for hosting @Taweret , and thank you for the wonderful watch party #Monsterdon. Have a great week everyone!
Weird, but as these go, pretty decent. Entertaining. Thanks #monsterdon ers. Take care. See ya soon.

Obligatory Femme Fatale
so has someone been trying to get a transporter lock on this guy for like the last 20 minutes because that's what it sounds like
#Monsterdon Brother Tony reminds me of a young William Shatner
lol, this is like fighting over the CD tray
Canβt say Iβm going to mourn Roy overmuch. #Monsterdon
how many times can you point at the drum section and go "do it like tss, t-t-tss, t-t-tss again" #monsterdon
Some of the acting in this is actually pretty good.
Tony this is a dumb idea. Yeah he can walk through walls but just... go around the things he goes through. He's not going through the Great Wall of China. Just play zone defense.
Tony once again dealing with the crushing weight of his *checking notes* sex appeal is what it says here π€¨
Majorie, when a stranger is telling you to get lost and not have anything to do with them, let them be a stranger and get lost.
@CactuarJoe It's just taking them a while to phase it out. #monsterdon

if he makes her age, will she get taller?
I thought for a second the bartender was the same as the security guard, but no apparently they found two different extremely gangly white guys. #monsterdon
@SnoopJ If they just will their bullets hard enough to interact with him....
@bryanhowell his shoes stay 3D. it hurts like shit but it's worth it
β¦the 2D man orders a plate of beer
"Sam, champagne⦠and brandy. Make it a brandagne. And bring the bottle."
For some reason my copy of this film had no sound during the 'bar floozy' scene
Scene: drinking solemnly at the bar after killing two people.
Soundtrack: πΊπΊπΊ
Crud, sound cuts out. It comes back, tho -_- #Monsterdon
@SnoopJ Reg has been caught in a stream for 45 minutes now...
@bunnyhero You're watching Wall-e? ( well sorta) #monsterdon
once it became a crime movie it's like the production team went all "thank fuck, we know how to do this" and now it kinda works.
Nah. Netflix would insist I finish the first season on a cliffhanger, then cancel it.
"no....err....officer....that sounds absurd......paper in metal? I have to go now...."
I wish we could have seen the heist, tho :(
I'm going to upload the script for this movie to AO3 I swear. I'm gonna get a movie deal out of it and make this movie as horny as the writers clearly intended π€£β¨
I mean by his very nature, 'jails can not hold him'

@flowerpot Yes! How did you know?

#monsterdon He's not aging, he's flocked, like a christmas tree.
Say what you will about the movie but I must have this soundtrack.
How he can will himself into a rotoscoped visual effect shot. #monsterdon
