Will some fashion designer PLEASE bring back the matching shirt & scarf
#monsterdon
Ok but sheโs badass - I wish I had this no fucks to give contemptuous energy
#monsterdon
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang has got NOTHING on this beauty
#monsterdon
Shit that red haired chick can sure swim!
Lost olympic dreams right there
#monsterdon
โSheโs become beautifulโ
Hey Iโm right here in the room jeez
#monsterdon
Ah finally the phallus appears
#monsterdon
Who me? I have no idea how that happened. I was just standing here minding my own business
#monsterdon
This beatnik dude isnโt very nice
#monsterdon
You can't end the movie without someone fucking off into the sea, it's a vital part of the genre. #Monsterdon
we are at the traditional "how on earth can this movie end in 2 minutes" point #monsterdon
Sea monster shooting lasers & destroying shit?
Yeah, I can do that, but I call it bug spray
if YOUR city is a scale model instead of stock footageโฆyouโre in danger #monsterdon
โDonโt wander around, got itโ
#monsterdon
thanks to @Taweret for hosting another very fun edition of #Monsterdon
this one had it all- evil beatniks, scaly frog men, a swiss army knife super-submarine, perhaps the lamest kaiju ever, and OUR GODDESS, the first ever E-Girl Empress, who fucked off into the sea rather than endure a world without MU
And they lived happily ever after. Well, unless you were one of the poor victims in Venice #monsterdon
That one made so little sense in the best kind of way. Thanks again everyone! #monsterdon #atragon
no one can ever accuse Honda of dragging out an ending
well, everything is exploding and on fire, the end! thanks all for another fun #monsterdon & to @Taweret for hosting!
holy crap, that was amazing! i think i want to fuck off into the sea now! #monsterdon
The End. Denouement is for chumps. #monsterdon #atragon
Mu Queen is Hard Core. #monsterdon #atragon
This time it's the Empress who fucks off into the sea for the ending. #Monsterdon
great job, boys, we've destroyed an entire civilization! time to go home~ #monsterdon
Well, I can see why they decided not to name the movie "Manda" #monsterdon
I meanโฆyouโre still absolutely killing them. You understand that right. That would 100% kill you #monsterdon
Now we see where most of the budget was spent. #monsterdon #atragon
sorry, whenever i see the nose of the sub, i keep thinking "ribbed for her pleasure" #monsterdon
@SarahKite "I believe that.... I believe that..." #monsterdon
like spraying a cat with a water bottle #monsterdon
Irwin Allen to the white phone. Irwin Allen to the white phone please. #monsterdon #atragon #electrifiedhull
wait. does their empire have a literal heart?
Manda is the skinniest kaiju #monsterdon
Haku! No! Bad dragon! BAD DRAGON! #monsterdon
The shape of water: cephalapods #monsterdon
Watertight suits aren't going to help you without oxygen tanks, I'm just sayin' #monsterdon
...Yeah they spent all the money on that city collapse didn't they XD #monsterdon
being on team laser snake is so on brand for hazmat suit gang #monsterdon
sea monster shooting lasers? cities collapsing? now we're cooking with gas
Mu's not f**king around. Stern letter to follow. #monsterdon #atragon
Oh my GOD what a beautiful model destruction shot
Did they just somehow drop the whole city model several feet? Amazing
fuck yeah
That. Rocked. #monsterdon #atragon
ahโฆthe witching hour #monsterdon
That's quite a lot of nice city models you got there. Shame if something happened to them. #monsterdon #atragon
It's about time. This sub better kick some serious Mu butt. #monsterdon #atragon
@moira
Dir.: Put everything we know about Russia in the model!
Crew: Done!
trying to hit the high points #monsterdon
They are REALLY pissed off about this hover-sub, huh? #Monsterdon
surely, we will be safe on the ship from the *checks notes* sea monster controlled by sea people
@joewynne @Taweret Also misdirection, getting everyone to think that it was the creature named "Atragon" #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe If there's a model of the place where you're standing, it's time to relocate. #Monsterdon
THEY'RE NOT BIRDS #monsterdon
Oops, we went into model mode, I think you guys are all toast #monsterdon
It's a 'scale' model.. get it? #monsterdon #atragon
Manda. finally
That's what it's all aboooout! #monsterdon #atragon
their religion seems to involve a lot of cardio
@SarahKite I'm going to guess we are okay unless our name is Nik? #ChecksNotes #monsterdon
@Taweret It's like that old song "bleue by mu!๐ถ" #DivesUnderTable #monsterdon
i also flash blue when shaken
@SarahKite Big fan of the "reporter" also having this. #Monsterdon
@CactuarJoe ubermarine? #monsterdon
I'm just saying, if a submarine FLIES, then in what way is it Sub Marine? The Gotenko is, what, an uppermarine? Topmarine? Shame they're Japanese, if they were French it could be a Surmarine and we'd all be satisfied. #monsterdon
allow me to explain how we fooled the Mu empire in front of the guy who is obviously from Mu
@SarahKite Oh I thought she'd been badly injured? #confused #monsterdon
"There's still one thing I still don't understand" One thing!? #monsterdon #atragon
@SarahKite We could have used that last week with That Dress #monsterdon
"I was just off in the trees doing human stuff!" #Monsterdon
Suck it world! Japan is taking it's sub and going home! #monsterdon #atragon
As long-lost family reunions go that was not ๐ฏ #monsterdon
So, he stole a submarine during WW2 and now he's basically Captain Nemo?
One more mode of transportation and I'm gonna plotz. At this stage I fully expect them to board the Tilt-A-Whirl next. #monsterdon
#monsterdon Skipper!!
This "reporter" is my new favorite character. #Monsterdon
Aw hell, it's Japanese Gilligan D: #monsterdon
@Louisa I hate it when mom and dad threaten to pull over the submarine #monsterdon
The Mu Empire's most deadly weapon -- Alka-Seltzer D: #monsterdon
Just once I'd like to make an exit like that.
mu empire educational reel! #monsterdon
#monsterdon Sadly Donovan never made a song about Mu.
@ryan Frank Ocean? #monsterdon
I'm Japanese in the 60s, yes, I am trying to work myself to death! #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe And Manda froze because they fell in with a bad crowd, not because of pollution or radiation or anything #monsterdon
I'm hoping this hypothetical film would end with some kind of realization on his part that the Mu represent a cycle of imperialism, hatred, and war that he contributed to thoughtlessly. Maybe he blows the sub up at the end, determined to end that cycle now that he's decided to try actually living in the present. Something like that anyway. #monsterdon
Like, imagine this guy confronted by a daughter he abandoned in order to hole up in the jungle, a daughter who represents everything Japan has become in the years after the war. She's modern, she's not afraid to tell him he's wrong, he has *no clue* how to deal with her.
Like, in his most sentimental moments maybe he imagined his daughter growing up, marrying a military man like himself, becoming a Proper Traditional Wife. But she's a secretary, a self-supporting woman! How dare! #monsterdon
Mu-shielding is a thing! #monsterdon
@paco Plus according to their brag reel the Mu empire is bigger than China, this must have been bad for some tiny little corner of it #monsterdon
@socketwench I prefer to believe she survived to become Boy George #monsterdon
Atragon now joins the likes of The Head That Wouldn't Die and The Screaming Skull in the pantheon of movies I desperately want to see re-made by a competent crew.
Seriously, though, The Last Man Out Of The Jungle forced to play the opposite role he experienced in the last days of the war? He has to choose between saving a country he views as an illegitimate mockery of his homeland and watching that home burn a second time? This is good shit! #monsterdon
@cheribaker I would have thought if you fired that underwater you'd just end up with an icicle on the front of your sub, but I guess not #monsterdon
@yatsu Plenty to explore there. Maybe there is hope with sequel mania now in Hollywood.
@Taweret thanks for hosting! #monsterdon
@moira @trixter maybe it was the pretend prequils we met along the way?! ๐ฅน #monsterdon
@paco Maybe they had protection... WAT? #monsterdon
@otheorange_tag @trixter no, no, it was thunderball #monsterdon
@Taweret Thanks as always for hosting! #monsterdon #atragon
@trixter So this was "The Shape of Water" then? #monsterdon
