It's not easy doing all that in a suit, is it?

#monsterdon

All the drama and thrills of a Swedish sauna. #Monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon

#Monsterdon the captains sphincter is so tight that you can hear a high pitched whine coming from his ass as he walks.

oooo, Nuclear drive shenanigans!

lol, really don't think that cloth suit is going to cut it.

He's going a Spock

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

At least one of these men will die. I'm voting for Greasy McMoustache

"Install that package, private!"

"I'm trying sir, but there's no pip."

#monsterdon #python

he'll only need 59 seconds. if we're lucky, he won't make it. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon first attempt to herorically sacrifice self at 9 minutes in

"There's no pip! I'm afraid I'm out of business!"

My new phrase in response to any situation I feel incapable of handling.

#monsterdon

@Bluedepth "lunacy"

I see what you did there

#Monsterdon

Wow, they really took their time answering that call.

#Monsterdon

*DRAMATIC SPACE ROCKER ROTATING MUSIC

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

I almost did a spit take at the rocket turning in space

your red alert alarm sounds like a clown squeezing its nose

#monsterdon

bwip bwip bwip bwip bwip

"Something's embedded in our rear section"

😏 😏 😏

#monsterdon

Who's penetrating who now, science boy? #Monsterdon

METEORS DO NOT WORK LIKE THAT

#monsterdon

@apLundell@octodon.social Space: Where everyone can hear you scream
#monsterdon

looking at this spaceship makes me feel like I could probably make my own spaceship

#monsterdon

You can tell they're in space because of all the whooshing noise. #monsterdon

Did Delphi Oil Company sponsor this?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

Why is he shouting into the mic?

"Strangest feeling all this has happened before..."

She's a Cylon

#monsterdon

Guess they've got a torch ship.

#monsterdon

#CatWomenOfTheMoon starts with a starfield and a dude monologue-ing about cosmic mysteries, which is how I would ideally start a thread about exoplanets. We then see a Moon Rocket taking off; it looks kind of like a football on the outside, but with fins.

In the inside, there's some corrugated metal walls and some booping electronics. The crew (two dudes and a girl) are laying down on mattress bunk chairs, presumably because they are under high gravity acceleration.

#monsterdon

Is she going to get up and start making coffee for everyone? Is it one of _those_ movies? #Monsterdon #CatWomenOfTheMoon

#Monsterdon pacing makes me think that this might have been a show that Rod Serling enjoyed as a teenager.

everyone sleeping on the job smh #monsterdon

h-HEY THIS IS THE SET OF what the fuck was it MOON BASE WHATEVER THE FUCK #Monsterdon

Why don't modern space ships have recliners?
#monsterdon

It's a discount Rod Serling intro here…

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Lunacy! LOL! Okay we’re here!

You know, it's only now that I look at the Tubi title card that I'm starting to appreciate the bonkers ride we're in for #Monsterdon

Y'know the Claymation effect would be a pretty decent way to convey "on the moon" if you don't want to bother to simulate reduced gravity

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Oh no, we're penned in by these clumsy shambling rock monsters!

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

couldn't even be bothered to _weed_ before shooting this thing

amazing

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

The rocket's brakes sound like constipated whales

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Everyone has guns for Reasons

#monsterdon

see now this is some Radar Men moonscape

looking for the Moon Car now

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

@moira Yeah, the Heinlein, Sprague and Asimov designed ones we cooler.

#monsterdon

At least they have air tanks now.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

in the like 2 years since the original movie, we have changed the aesthetic of space from "weird ass sphereical helmets" to "just air force helmets" #monsterdon

Are the levers numbered out of order?

#monsterdon

Way more convenient spacesuits.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon #DoubleFeature

I sure hope someone brought cigarettes again

#monsterdon

it's nice of the cat women to have built a German missile launch site on the moon for them

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

Every space mission in the 50's simply had to have one fight among the crew

They build it into the mission plan and everything

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@hanabananana67 We watch a movie ~Saturday~ SUNDAY 8 PM CT, run by @Taweret , and live toot.

#Monsterdon

omfg the main professor guy was the one that was infected by the cat-women, and that's why he's been building the illegal rocket this whole time #monsterdon

Hmm, this time it's the MAN that has suspicious knowledge WHAT A TWIST

#monsterdon

@hanabananana67 Muahaha! MUAHAHA!!!! It’s alive! ALIVE I tell you!!!!! #Monsterdon is the mind bending HORROR created by the Dark Servants of Planet Mordgrebdt!
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
Catthulhu is PLEASED!!!!!

maybe this is the time when the cat-women make contact with helen 2.0 to give her super powers to guide them safely to the cat-woman temple #monsterdon

Oh for fuck's sake

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Guessing that Gary is going to be the one easily duped by the catwomen by the promise of riches/etc. once they're on the surface

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Slipstick calculations!

#monsterdon

@jonny i’ve been away from the timeline and had to skip #monsterdon tonight so when i saw these toots i immediately assumed it was talking about elon

and the 50s scientist with the penetration again

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

@Newpa_Hasai @ricci OMG this is fantastic

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@Newpa_Hasai @diazona thank you for this important information on this blessed day

#monsterdon

WOW OKAY they actually went to the work to put an actual V2 onto a starfield?!

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

Someone remarked last week that we should have a gallery of the best #monsterdon hats. And I think these space helmets get an honorable mention. They've got some real interesting design.

@SnoopJ i think it actually works great in colour though. i love the cat women in Missile to the Moon, they have blue skin #Monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai Also, the captain is armed with a Luger. I did Nazi that coming.

#monsterdon

I guess back then you could just launch anytime you felt like it. None of that fancy NASA calculating crap.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

Cool model earth, but I'd want to check as to if that was reused from Project Moonbase

#monsterdon

Cut to... V-2 stock footage?

#monsterdon

Hmm, so, knowing that your rocket ship is getting activated, has someone in it, and has smoke wafting out the bottom... clearly the smart thing to do is walk right under the engine

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

That guy who built the ship also solved the gravity problem.

#MissleToTheMoon #Monsterdon Double Feature

Oh good we still have seatbelts on the office chairs, all is right with the world

#monsterdon

#monsterdon So, I'm suggesting Manos: Hands Of Fate. It does have monsters - an evil guy with powers and a satyr, though you wouldn't necessarily know he's a satyr. It's also an amazingly terrible movie. Incredibly bad. You haven't seen anything this bad. And kind of cursed.

going to the moon requires absolutely no training or expertise of any kind and could be done by a single person but it's just inconvenient #monsterdon

I need to get some "Astro" switches for my desk.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon #DoubleFeature

#MissileToTheMoon trivia: "The giant spider prop was originally built for Tarantula (1955)."

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048696 looks pretty good for a later #monsterdon @Taweret ?

Everything leads back to spiders, as it should.

A model of the actual rocket on his desk gives some von Braun vibes.

#monsterdon

i am having a really hard time thinking about where i would land on this because on the one hand you absolutely shouldnt trust the guy who threatens to take you to the moon at gunpoint in his homemade rocket but also how often are you going to get to go to the moon on a handmade pirate rocket #Monsterdon

"If you don't do what I say, I'll shoot you with this gun!"

*immediately puts gun away and turns his back*

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

If the strange man offering to take you "to the moon" tells you to go undress, it might not be bitcoin

Or, it could still be

#monsterdon

I was so naive, back then, an hour ago.

But how was I supposed to know the movie would turn stupid 15 minutes in?

#monsterdon

"Up where?" "7-up! You're drinking it!"

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

If a strange man offers to take you "to the moon" he just might be trying to sell you bitcoin

#monsterdon

Guessing that we won't make it to the Moon by the 20 minute mark, here.

I appreciate the setup, but there *is* such a thing as overdoing it.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

I resent the lack of evil lesbian subtext in this knockoff

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

@Newpa_Hasai Ooh that sounds interesting (though not during the movie, I would have to turn my brain on first)

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@diazona Unironically, there's a discussion to be had about how there was an expectation that space ships would be roomier than they actually are.

#monsterdon

holy shit is this about to be a nonconsensual missile to the moon #monsterdon

A rocket to the moon. Just standing in a field of grass. You just need to climb up a small ladder.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

That's the face of a man who just found himself some test subjects, I think.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

I'm relieved that this is not a faithful remake. The original deserves no faith.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@jonny Still more professional than the bozos from the first one

#monsterdon

The _airlock_ is made of _pegboard_.

I do not think they understand what _airlocks_ are for

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

please please please let the protagonists be these two bozos accidentally launching the rocket to the moon #monsterdon

@SnoopJ Yay, tubi, I guess

#monsterdon

#monsterdon ROUND TWO! Missile To the Moon!

That's a nice model(?)

#monsterdon

DIRK

DIRK ... HARDSHANK?

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

This is a shocking amount of terrestrial setup, considering how abruptly the first movie began.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

so are we getting a for-profit space travel lobbying subplot here or what is this #monsterdon

ngl, like this light fixture

ngl, hilarious that one of the bulbs is burned out

ngl, hilarious that none of these people are the brightest bulbs in the movie

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

...gas generator? Are those actual (rough) diagrams of liquid fuel rocket engiens?

#monsterdon

@diazona @hollie @moira @ricci

I'm game. Christmas time is coming. Or "Life Day" or whatever probably...?

#Monsterdon
