LOL yep the entire plot was resolved with the off-screen murder of the cat-women of the Moon

Do you think they ran out of time while writing the script?

#Monsterdon

Stockholm syndrome for the win?

#monsterdon

The shots connected offscreen? what?

#monsterdon

"the best of the earth mongrels"

LMAO

#Monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon

Every single person in this movie makes the worst possible decision at all times, I just want them all stuck on the moon forever

#monsterdon

@jonny Clearly the latter, said the guy in the gold cave.

#monsterdon

"there comes a time when you can't find it in a book, I know that now!"

Just love how that line came out of nowhere to me, and makes no sense

#monsterdon

@Lazarou yeah, I can work with this. #Monsterdon
@floatybirb

I wonder what the people from PROJECT MOONBASE are up to right now

#Monsterdon

Ha! The unstoppable kissing urge foils them again.

#monsterdon

There's the wind-up. Here's the pitch. #monsterdon

@CactuarJoe dont forget the stupid but pretty wife

#monsterdon

Someone’s having a hissy fit

#monsterdon

wow weakest movie slap ever #Monsterdon

"I don't wanna rule the world!"

I want two point five children and a Chevrolet! #Monsterdon

When they remake this with CGI, I have no doubt there will be, like, those Doctor Strange spell symbol things coming out of their hands. I can SEE it, they're soooo goooood.

🙄

#monsterdon

What is it with the blond guy always wiping the back of his neck

#monsterdon

Doug can get killed, that's ok actually

#Monsterdon

There's a lot more weird sexual tension on the moon than you would think. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Earth guys are easy.

#monsterdon

Why are they Cat-Women? Is it the tight outfits?

He brought a gun, but what he really needed was a laser pointer. #Monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon

ugh you boys are gonna get toxoplasmosis if you keep this up

#monsterdon

I still don't see any cats or statues of cats, or mention of cats

#monsterdon

Are we sure this dance really was directed?

#monsterdon

Ah, yes, the traditional Catutsi of the Catwomen of the moon. A traditional dance whose history goes back centuries.

#monsterdon

"A Woman?! Take a Man's Job?! Is it the 1940s again oh we don't talk about that do we?"

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

Moustache will be killed because of greed.

Will they all have some fatal flaw? Lust? Gluttony?

"I like 'em stupid"

...may I introduce you to a mirror

#Monsterdon

@Lazarou Oh now that would be interesting

#Monsterdon

Whoa that was a tooth-chipping kiss

#monsterdon

Kip Kippering
Doug Dougington
Helen Helenson (canonically it's Salinger)

#monsterdon

"Don't worry, I won't slug her"

Why is that even an option?!

#monsterdon

I bet they named him Walt Walters so the actors could remember his name

#monsterdon

And then there's this guy with the gun, lounging insouciantly, eating crudely, just oozing patriarchy.

#monsterdon

So this is basically Avengers: Infinity War, but instead of Thanos *eliminating* half of the population, the Cat-Woman are trying to *arouse* half of the population

#Monsterdon

Okay, a coke as an example of good Earth things is acceptable

#monsterdon

that guy in the back has balls too big. that's why he's holding the gun.

#Monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon

If only the astronauts had a laser pointer…
#monsterdon

Can't decide if these guys are more horny or greedy

#monsterdon

He tosses the wrapper across the floor and the cat women have to hold themselves back from chasing it.
#monsterdon

But where are the cats though?

#monsterdon

Some women look good in spandex, but here we found one and filmed her from toe to head

#monsterdon

So let me get this straight... you've never seen a grown man naked? #monsterdon

I hope you enjoy the pickled Moon Spider eggs. #Monsterdon

It's actually reconstituted spider goo

#monsterdon

@SRLevine Well, Siamese cats also

#monsterdon

Something something temple cats

#monsterdon

Already the Moon women are making the Men dinner....

#monsterdon

why is there a music box playing?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

She's no Julie Newmar, but she's a feisty gal

#monsterdon the biggest horror of the 50s and 60s: men not having a use

we couldn't come up with cat women names?

#monsterdon

lol, I ready had no idea who WAS in command until this point

#monsterdon

FASTER, MOONYCAT - KILL, KILL!

#monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon #SonnyTufts #Thighbiter

She didn't meow ONCE during that attack, it's like her heart wasn't even in it

#monsterdon

@rallias @Princejvstin I bet it was. Scientists have known how to detect atmospheric composition through spectroscopy for a long time, pretty sure much earlier than the 1950's.

Not that any good filmmaker would let that stop them

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon I need to rest. Where’s my scratching post?

#monsterdon I don't have the Bingo card handy. Is "bowels of the moon" on there?

Wait, he can tell from how cold the ashes are that the fire wasn't lit in centuries?

Sure, that makes Sense. Nobody question it.

#Monsterdon

I wonder how many cartons of cigarettes you’d need to pack for this sort of expedition. #monsterdon

Yes, if you feel the ashes in an urn, you can estimate how many centuries it's been since the last fire.

#monsterdon

So it takes years, centuries for ashes to go cold. #monsterdon

Matte paintimgs by Matt™️ #monsterdon

Waaiitt....clouds on the Moon now?

And Lhasa by the looks of it?

I have questions

#monsterdon

Flirting IN SPAAAAACE is very awkward.
#Monsterdon #CatwomenoftheMoon

Is no one else going to scream? #Monsterdon

Does she scream awake every morning because she misses Kip?

She is truly the highest

#monsterdon

I'm thinking that, tactically, grabbing the spider and shoving her face into your abdomen is usually a bad idea?

Oh, no, it's fine, just some hysterical screaming.

I bet people have bingo on this one already, don't they?

#monsterdon

If the spider turns into a vampire suddenly like last week's mummy, I'm writing a strongly worded letter to the CEO of Monsterdon.

#monsterdon

@ranjit looks like the first alien encounter went.... well

#monsterdon

The prop so nice, they used it twice!

#monsterdon

This movie has already had:

-Product placement
-Moon Souvenirs
-Bottling moon air as a folk remedy

Yup, these astronauts are definitely a bunch of American shysters.

#monsterdon

MOON SPIDER!!!!! MOON SPIDER!!!!! MOON SPIDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #monsterdon

I already did the bit about meteors, so: DAYLIGHT ON THE MOON DOES NOT WORK LIKE THAT

#monsterdon

"where's there's Oxygen there's Life.." Pulls out a gun

Americans...

#monsterdon

look the one woman on board has been a known cat woman since the moment she told Alpha she was about to get there and every part of her behavior has been screaming "i am a cat woman taking the men to the cat woman lair" but the men just are not paying attention at all. i love how this is a plausible plot in the 50's #monsterdon

how are they even yelling to each other with no air to carry the sound

raising your voice isn't going to help

#monsterdon

I don't trust that Helen. Dames ain't supposed to be calling the shots on the moon!

#monsterdon

Trying to “do it by the book”, Kip *heroically* fights the urge to make puns about Uranus #Monsterdon

I love imagining these actors just sauntering around the sound stage filming this.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

Silly cigarettes - my favorite kind

Their discussion of "dark side" does give "there was a science consultant" vibes, since they're concerned about a lack of mapping. (I'm behind a bit from a call)

#monsterdon

@YsengrinWolf And meteorites make noise. There sure is a lot of atmosphere on this moon. Yet, they need to wear space helmets.

#monsterdon

Helen knows WAY too much about the 'dark' side of the moon.

#monsterdon

hahahah what bullshit

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon If you squint just right, you can see an asshole on the Earth.

#Monsterdon there’s no life on the moon, but the matte painter. He’s been busy.

so hold up this mission had no plan about where on the moon they were going to land or what they were going to do there to the point where they made an audible call right before they were landing to go around the entire thing and land on the dark side of the moon ???? what are they supposed to be doing here again ????? #monsterdon

I love these dumbasses all scheming on how to get rich off being astronauts, who cares about visiting the fucking moon! Secure that bag

#Monsterdon

"That's one small step for… oh screw it, I'm going for a walk"

#monsterdon

i betcha those metal hammocks are sold for thousands as "mid-century glamping beds"

#Monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon

It being the 50s these space suit costumes are probably made of asbestos and radium

#monsterdon

@Sorl And what with Helen also saying "Alpha, we're on our way" and knowing about this valley on the dark side ... she's some kind of sleeper agent, right? Either programmed (hypnotised) or voluntary? #Monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon

Space hysteria - that's a woman thing right

#monsterdon

#monsterdon "Every man a tiger" is a phrase I will not be using from now on

The view screen is pretty advanced for its time. it's a large flat screen in 1953.

#monsterdon

TBF, if the engine is running all the time they'd have pseudo-gravity so well done there. Not that they've really explained that.

Are the Helen and Kip an item?

#monsterdon
