#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

thank you monsterdonians, y'all make #Monsterdon's awful so awesome.

also, how are her stockings not all run up and with holes?!?! that's the real magic technology of this sci-fi 2024.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

the woman doesn't talk because they didn't have the budget to cover her union fees.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

The number of #monsterdon watchers (#monsterdonians?) ragging on that one line contradicting general relativity is just... 🥹 They should have sent a poet.

Markova leading the revolution of freaks and geeks against the infertile techbro inbreds. that's what am talking about.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

#monsterdon You just can't beat the warm, rich sound quality of those human-sized vacuum tubes. Modern transistor tubes can't compare.

@paco

This is #monsterdon

We should have awards for:
Most Stock footage
Worst Plot
Best in Theremin
Worst in Misogyny

LMAO the friggin' doctor lit the guy's cigarette and he blew smoke on his face. this is so on brand for a MIC movie.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

i knew Dr. Markova reminded me of someone

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

this movie, in 1960, is totally describing the possible destruction of the ozone layer, the only successful worldwide environmental rescue and regeneration campaign 🤔

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

it's really funny in these sci-fi worlds there are no people that aren't even close to the paperbag test.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

And let me tell you, things are FUCKED

#monsterdon

The #Oscars and #Monsterdon are getting all mashed up in my TL, and speaking as someone who is watching neither of them, it improves the former greatly

our mans has what looks like a motion tracking suit like he's gonna play Gollum in space

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

Well I guess due to the lack of Light Speed travel to Mars and 'cosmic pandemics' we avoided that timeline.

Perhaps if the legion of Scientists warning the world of Climate Change had just concocted some crazy story of Time Travel and used a cheap ring as evidence, the world wouldn't be burning now?

#monsterdon

If there's one thing I've learned tonight it's that triangular architecture is not meant for bipeds like us.

#monsterdon

we've gonna from triangles to a Pentagon

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

oh, so deaf-mute chick was the only one with a womb. well... that's not convenient.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

it's cute how he thinks he can stop the MIC's nepobaby techbros from fucking shit up in 2024

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

LOL in this colorized version the car looks a very LGBTQIsh lavender

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

This ending is really dragging, making Lord of the Rings look tight.

#monsterdon

those kitten heels bother me. they totally do not come off her dead feet.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

Oh my, Spacetime does not work like that, even if you've got a guy speaking with a German accent

#monsterdon

that bed looked the one i saw in that brothel turned hotel in Madrid that i stayed with my ex when we traveled there back in the 1990s.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

switch the roles and tell me the granddaughter picking the prisoner for some future boning isn't problematic 🤨

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

oh, so the guy with the Texan accent is the one advocating for torture. that totally checks out. #Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

Looks like they're due for another "Infrastructure Week." #Monsterdon

Not the USAF piano!
#monsterdon

Hilarious, man says the world is doomed and only he knows how to avoid it.
Everyone believes him and starts acting on it.

The Whiteness....

#monsterdon

so they didn't have a budget for music either; until the final scene... and then they kill the babe too. the producers of this movie were totally accountants.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

"None of this is real, it's all an illusion"

Actually there is a lot of that going around in our 2024.....

#monsterdon

certain mathematical conditions yet here you are still using chalk and a board

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

you would have thought aliens would've figured out the clickety-clackety problem of kitten heels.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

the world is like right of out of Flash Gordon comics book.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

uh-oh, that's what happens when you tell someone may the lord be with you. you just made the man loose his soul.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

#monsterdon "We know the X-80 can make 5,000mph. Up there, at 500,000, in the thin air... who knows?"

You can calculate that, you know.

@diazona @trixter @Taweret@octodon.social Planet of the Apes, surely?
#monsterdon

“Gentlemen, we've got a lot to think about.”

I’ll bet that's a direct quote from the writer's room when told they had to turn over the unfinished script because shooting was starting in five minutes.

#monsterdon #beyondthetimebarrier

#Monsterdon “the jealousy of a she-devil…” #preview

So, uh, I guess we won't know if the plague triangles can be defeated #monsterdon

They had access to idle military equipment, and they totally wrote the script around it

#monsterdon

it's like a whole race of Carlos El Hechizado; but slightly better looking

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

Message from the future: DO NOT MAKE TRIANGULAR BUILDINGS

#monsterdon

@lorgonumputz What is Δv? and other questions this movie doesn't ask #monsterdon

Wow this got dark fast

#monsterdon

@neia @jonny Doggonit this is too accurate even in our timeline

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

David Zaslav totally executive produced this movie before he was born.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

"Don't mind me, just talking my corpse for a walk lads, just let me through..."

#monsterdon

NOOOOOOOO!
Markova, martyr of the freaks and geeks revolution. long live Markova.

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

The fight scenes in this are an art form

#monsterdon

#monsterdon These theremin/slide-whistle elevator sound effects are _killing_ me.

Oh sure, go play with the telepath who can read all the plans your conspirators have just been plotting

#monsterdon

@blogdiva Endless examples abound, but my all-time favorite pre-Derrick Bell, all-white sci-fi flick is probably When Worlds Collide (1951). Favorite because it had known actors and a real budget.

It had the whitest shipful of "selected by lottery" survivors I have seen before or since. The fix was totally in!

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

She's the only fertile woman?
So many questions...

#monsterdon

2024 had plague... 🤔
#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

Mother looks like an undercover store security guard

#monsterdon

"Three turns of the Earth....that is three days"

Amazing future calendar! Condescension!

#monsterdon

Mutants......or Antivaxxers?!

#monsterdon

Uh-oh, they've locked him in with the Blue Man Group

#monsterdon

that old guy's eyebrows are almost as long as his mullet

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

"the mutants"

There's always mutants in these things, in real life the radiation doesn't give you powers, it just gives you cancer. In 2024 everything gives you cancer.

#monsterdon

LOL he's encased in glass like one of the aliens in Independence Day

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

Cameras watch everything, well they got that right.

#monsterdon

Oh shit - a 2024 city!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Man, you know that feeling when you step away for a second and while you're up the whole office leaves for lunch without telling you? Brutal.

did this guy just passive-aggressively call the other fat? and i thought salty aunts were the only ones to pull that shit

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

@gnomon Yeah I was pleased so many people caught on to that 😁

#Monsterdon

we never found out where airplane two went

i want to know where airplane two went

i want to know about transporter clone airplane

#monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

final impression: you could edit that down into a 24 minute twilight zone episode and still keep all the special effects, eye lust and wacky science. #monsterdon

"Gentlemen, we have a lot to think about." THE END. Where's our seascape ending? Where was the ocean in ALL of this? #Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

i think the whole movie was worth the ending whooooooooooooooo sound #monsterdon

You know what, for pulpy schlock, that was a lot of fun! It was oddly ambitious in parts, which made for a good counterpoint to the nonsensical plot and vaguely foreign accents. #monsterdon

Well that was a strange film

Great commentary though!

#monsterdon

Gentlemen, we've got a lot to think about.

#Monsterdon

"we have got a lot to think about" (space noises) (roll credits)
STRONG ENDING THATS A WRAP #monsterdon

"oooo a FUTURE ring.......he's telling the truth!"

#monsterdon

WAIT that door's a DIAMOND

HERETIC DOOR

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

Oh jet planes can fly in Space now, ok.....

#monsterdon

wait WUT

#monsterdon

Oh dear, this got SO violent so fast. Not bloody/gory, but a whole lot of mob violence. #Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

#monsterdon These fight scenes during the escape/chase are... surprisingly kinetic?

Get over it man, she'll disappear once you went through the time vortex or what have you....and even if she got back she'd have to deal with the terribly Ableist 60s

#monsterdon

She's got kinda of an evil Princess Leia vibe going on.
Oh hey. So she's the Magneto. TO ME MY MUTANTS!
#Monsterdon #BeyondTime

yeah, take the girl back with you, infect the entire 1960s with this plague, no problem. #monsterdon

There's enough room in this suit for the both of us!

#monsterdon

They had *one guard* at the mutant prison?

#Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

So if he leaves without fertilizing her, and he fails to convince normal-time people to ... (not sure what) , then everybody loses right?

#monsterdon

"The Archives"

You mean the Mute Princess's photo drawer?

What an odd place this is.

#monsterdon

So the reason Trirene wears those skimpy skirts and fetching sleeveless tops is to show she's not mutated, fully capable of having kids to re-populate the world. Are the scientists / engineers being honest with the pilot or playing their own game? With each other? A lot of interesting angles with all these different parties. Also, this is one of the most math-y sci-fi movies I've seen (orbital mechanics, physics, escape velocity, flight angle, etc.). #Monsterdon #BeyondTheTimeBarrier

"TIME is not effected by the law of gravity!"

Heh, ye— hm

#Monsterdon

Every time cube is a time pyramid rotated 45 degrees. #monsterdon

>Mentions relativity

>Clearly implies that absolute reference frames exist

#monsterdon

"time is not affected by the laws of gravity"

🤦

#Monsterdon

You may be able to boink our way out of the plague?

#monsterdon

"A FIFTH dimension?!"

"By the 1970s we were travelling at the speed of light"

Whoa, let's slow down there, do you guys understand what that means?

#monsterdon

Naughty naughty thoughts

#monsterdon

This mute princess with mood swings was giving her rebuttal to the State Of the Union a few days ago

#monsterdon

"Please do not harm our special princess"

Saunters into her bedroom......

#monsterdon

Dick beard is such a good actor, I feel his conflict, look at him rub his hands....

#monsterdon
