What, your project would make people massive, isn't that a major issue if you want people to eat your giant food

#monsterdon #BegiiningOffTheEnd1957
THe only solution is we also must eat the giant food so that we are even larger than the locusts!!
Okay, I'm finally here. Fast forwarding through the giant tomato fondling to catch up. #Monsterdon
10 LARGE MEN! #monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
Technobabble as to why we have giant locusts.
Eisenhower in the bg. All I can think of now is that scene in Porkyβs.
You hysterical people and your cardigans!
#Monsterdon We should feed the giant tomatoes to a human, so they'd turn giant and be able to squish the locusts.
Um, didnβt you have a photographer in this movie? Maybe some photos would convince them? #Monsterdon
Hi Ike! #monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
#Monsterdon that sound was bugging me
#monsterdon They've been handled. They've been reloaded. At some point. They are rifles, like people have in their homes, you know, regular folk. **THANK YOU NRA** LOL
Seems they could turn the grasshoppers into that new promised nuclear food source.
These are the kinds of guns people keep in their homes. Unregistered. #Monsterdon
He saw ONE. How does he know the size range?
The sacrificial disabled character βΉοΈ #Monsterdon
HOLY SHIT IT'S AN ATOMIC BUG
#monsterdon
the kind of guns people keep in their home????
YOUβRE JUST LEAVING HIM THERE WITH THE GIANT BUG?!?!!??? #Monsterdon
"I'm a man, so you have to believe me," #Monsterdon
What's the over-under on that character having been deaf and mute so they wouldn't have to actually pay the actor for screaming?
I feel like you could have at least made a performative effort to save Frank
A guy who notices that the ground ought to be teeming with insects is a good one in my book.
I swear I heard "Enthamologist" and all I could imagine was some cross between an entomologist and an ophthalmologist.
Noooooooo! Not Frank!!!
Not even going to try to save him uh?
#monsterdon
HE"S BEEN GRASSHOPPED!
he lost his voice and hearing so it was impossible for him to run I guess
Jeffy Spaghetti that grasshopper is loud π
Frank didnt even get to do a death scream awwww π¦
#Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
Actor hamming it up β
(if only that was actually on my bingo card)
WHERE'S MY KEYS WHERE DID I LEAVE ME
oh shit it's not my car
Poor Frank.
#monsterdon What the hell was that? Hip checking to prevent rescue?!?
Audrey Aimes of national wire service, I've read a lot of your "stuff". I think she's meant to be Lee Miller, WWII photographer.
Big white guy is the director, the little scruffy mutant gets to do all the grunt work.
"This is a strawberry! These are tomatoes!" yes he's very sharp.
"Take Ms Aimes to Ludlow, I hope you have a strong stomach." Either he doesn't know she was in the war, or the food there is REALLY bad.
He picked a bad week to study vanishing insects.
get out the camera you idiots #monsterdon
that's one hell of a Lucky Cricket.
Thatβs the most cicada-like grasshopper sound Iβve ever heard
Deaf, mute and paralyzed
FRAAAAAAAANK #Monsterdon
Hey Frank, whats eating you?? #Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
GIANT GRASSHOPPER RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!
#monsterdon #BegiiningOffTheEnd1957
We have a giant insect Friend!!
"If you're a bug scientist why are you working with plants?"
Well you see so few scientists end up getting a job in the field they went to college for and...
#Monsterdon #BeginningoftheEnd
this movie abuses of dramatic soundtharck

#beginningoftheend1957
Omigosh it's so cuuuuuuute!
#Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
Hunky Scientist showing off his entomologist rizz #Monsterdon
It's so loud that the deaf guy can hear it. #Monsterdon
oh, uh, i think i'm worried about Assistant's safety.
Peter Graves majored in Tolkien Studies, he studies Ents #Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
BREET BREET BREET BREET INSERT ALERT INSERT ALERT
"practically down to the roots" is enough to tip over into marking the 'Terrible Dialog' squire on my bingo card. at least give me a performative trowel if you're gonna throw that in
Uh oh. Composite shot incoming. #monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
@peterries I approve of this
#monsterdon something hit these back walls from the inside. If you know what I mean
I thought we were going to get a critique of capitalism farm policy but alas (I joke, of course we weren't getting that)
#monsterdon
Some one shut off that grasshopper's car alarm.
Entomologist? oh he definitely did it
I ship the science guys

"No, that's nature's way, Audrey" <-- exactly as Phil Hartman would later impersonate Peter Graves in the pencil sketch.
#Monsterdon An entomologist? Well there's no way that'll be useful.
Finally here, and, wow(!), precredit sequence gave me:
- Flirtation,
- A Fun Time Interrupted, and
- Monster Attacks
#MonsterdonBingo #Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
they could've used real sign language #monsterdon
Nope, not wheat. In Illinois itβs corn or soy. #Monsterdon
Bet it was goats
"Deeper than _horses_ go? Damn, how does anyone surviv
Ah, that must be ASL for "Come here!" #monsterdon
oh sure blame the birbs
A million bushels of wheat ... gone without a trace. What could have done such a thing?
Here in Ludow, tragedy strikes. A sudden outbreak of stock stills from climate disasters...
"this is completely barren, except all the grass you can see at my feet"
#beginningoftheend
#monsterdon #grasshoppersvspostcards
These ruins would be more dramatic if there were also people frozen under the volcanic ash. Ah wait, wrong ruins.
"That's allotta h-wheat."
#Monsterdon #BeginningoftheEnd
Uh oh! Something ate all that grain!
A million bushels of wheat? That seems like a lot.
#monsterdon "Roger, roger, oveur, done.β
Never have I heard such dramatic music while looking at farm buildings mildly fallen over
I mean yeah, we've been exposed to massive amounts of radiation, but us scientists, we really live a sheltered life.
#monsterdon
Frank's lopsided expression is bothering my autism a bit. Uneven sensation around the eyes bugs me, and mirror neurons and all. Well, that's a "me" problem
#Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
The surfeit of oaks always gives the California away. #Monsterdon
Nothing is paved here. How is the car not dusty? #Monsterdon
You can't see it in black and white but the assistant is wearing a red shirt #Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
Yeah, and you saw what happened to _Ludlow_
Well the music seems to think something dramatic happened.
a couple of frames of still photographes π #Monsterdon #BeginningOfTheEnd
"yup, this is a bunch of corrugated metal. Now look at these unrelated photos of a destroyed warehouse"
#Monsterdon Very dramatic music for a destroyed grain warehouse we already knew was destroyed.
@RobynGoodfellow it's carrying all Β·threeΒ· of them, in the front seat! and they all have room to spare!
was he sitting very oddly in that car, or like... what was he resting his arm on?
Ha ha, they made Dr Pete ride straddling the transmission. #Monsterdon
Peter Graves as Hunky Scientist #Monsterdon
Frank totally cock blocked his boss.
#monsterdon every since I can remember...
I wanted to be a Bug Fella
"What did he say?"
"Oh, nothing."
