this film teeters on greatness. there's decent acting and everything. It just.... phones in specific parts (esp. the FBI/CIA/etc) that are pretty ridiculous
Is that Ryan Gosling's dad as the douchie polo shirt dude? #monsterdon
The NYPD has teams of flamethrower operators?
Drugs are bad #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero yeah, no, you aren't going to trick ME into watc... nuthin! #Monsterdon
@brooke I thought the geiger-counter-sounder was just like the motion-tracker in Aliens, as wellβ¦
#Monsterdon first time I spotted the door braces
@Newpa_Hasai incident reports for this skip do in fact include an MTF going down. #monsterdon
Should have brought shot guns, it saved some of the platoon in Aliens.

They're fine
I'm sorry, every time I hear the name Bosch all I can think is "that's a dishwasher!".

i'm pretty sure you can't put any more gas in the sewer than is already there
#Monsterdon ooh this is great it's like the initial fight in aliens :D
Flaming CHUDS incoming
Man. I bet they were *delicious.* #Monsterdon
@trixter Probably one of those terrible Taster's Choice coffees with hazelnut.

"They're coming out of the walls!"
"Where's the sarge?! Where's the sarge!"
*alien screams
the cops are outfitted with belts of ammo for their flamethrowers #monsterdon
Rock beats scissors, flametheower beats camera.
We have implied coffee! I assume that's what would be offered in a styrofoam cup here.
NYPD needs flame-throws, because, um, chuds?
#monsterdon
Uh oh. Are we gonna have a βget them out of there!β moment when they all get attacked? #monsterdon
ACAB includes Bosch

#Monsterdon Wilson! Benson! George! Henry! Itβs a twister! Itβs a twister!
"My man has a flamer thrower" is quite the flex. #Monsterdon #CHUD
NYPD has too big of a budget.
#Monsterdon
He brought a camera to a flame thrower fight.
why are the literal ski boots with "Scott" still on them main characters in this movie #monsterdon
Wow, even the cops still cared about the formality of classified materials. In theory.
we'll do it myyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
#monsterdon holy shit I love the radiation suits!
ok, I found that camera-focus-switch to display the creature reflected in the faceplate to be pretty slick

#monsterdon C.H.U.D. is a government acronym?
Speaking as a veteran: that tracks.
SEE ACH YOU DEE!
#Monsterdon #CHUD
The fuck? How is eating a coin a show of dominance?
Eating the quarter from a payphone is the WEIRDEST MOVE EVER.
scared away from the payphone by beta test Mr. Smith from the Matrix #monsterdon
#Monsterdon *staring contest*
I hope that dude in the Izod shirt gets some kind of disease for swallowing a quarter.
I love that the agent is wearing LaCoste
#monsterdon We can't use this car in the movie! It's got a logo on it that's not cleared!
No problem, slap a phone-number magnet over it.
