BUBO AS HIMSELF??

#Monsterdon

or perhaps it will make a very mediocre movie!

Thanks @Taweret and the #monsterdon throng

Yes, definitely meeting our mendacity quota as a species.

#Monsterdon

The tide IMMEDIATELY washes the head onto the shore

#monsterdon

Monster navel!! ...he was birthed??

#Monsterdon

RICOOOOOOOOOLA

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

just noticed Neptune. he weirdly looks like that dude from Inside The Actors’ Studio

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

@nev both; the snake lady can be creepy AND hot. #Monsterdon

@JoeWynne In the book and comic book he uses the shield as a discus and decapitates her with it. That would've been awesome to pull off with stop motion! #Monsterdon

JFC how many body parts is this guy going to just start dragging around with him. Anyone have any magical feet? Cursed elbows?

#Monsterdon

it is nice that Medusa found LOUD, ACCESSIBLE ARROWS. #monsterdon

#monsterdon Wow, Medusa's temple is really a wreck up close.

I wonder how it got so old and weathered.

Just gonna be a bunch of taunting Frenchmen on that island

#monsterdon

@ricci Fool! Perseus toots as he pleases!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon The Eye is made by SAMSUNG! Just don’t let it go too long without an update. Good luck finding the USB-C port too, bucko…

#monsterdon I see we've found the lunch ladies of DOOM.

@diazona It's disorienting being so much better than #StarCrash! We needed a mediocre transition movie. This one is genuinely good!

#monsterdon

Zeus is just way too generous as a DM :/ #Monsterdon

"Give him your pet. Your beloved pet that you raised from a chick. SELL ME YOUR CHILDREN!" #Monsterdon

Bubo the owl! LFG

#monsterdon

"Tis a long and perilous journey!"

C'mon, let me go back and face the peril! #Monsterdon

Oh man, just like Stella Star in Starcrash. #Monsterdon

Well maybe your ambassadors would have come back if your representatives weren't so delicious. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#Monsterdon

Talk about losing your head in a rage, hyuk hyuk hyuk!

#Monsterdon

It is bad news when your goddess's head falls off?

#Monsterdon

@JoeWynne @srol oh come on now you're literally asking for it

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

This film's kind of a reverse Beauty and the Beast huh. #Monsterdon

Wardrobe gave up, Perseus is just wearing a pillowcase in this scene.

#monsterdon

still blows my mind that Harry Hamlin was almost a baby in this movie

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

Do you WANT invisible gators?!?! Because THAT’S how you get invisible gators!
#monsterdon

Pegasus when asked to come back to this spooky-ass swamp.

#Monsterdon

The unnecessarily stop-motioned Calibos 😂

#Monsterdon

Aaaaahhhh I see. It's her rejected horse-killing ex-fiancé. In a dry ice swamp.

#Monsterdon

monsterfucker roll call!

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans #monsterdong

God this is so bizarre but for once I probably can't blame the filmmakers I have to blame ancient Greeks

#Monsterdon

Why is Pegasus galloping while flying? Is that like when you hold up a cat in mid-air and they try to run away from you but end up just wiggling their paws around?

#monsterdon

...The WATER doesn't turn invisible? #Monsterdon

"Pegasus!"

"Look, it has the cutie mark of Zeus on its butt!"

#monsterdon

TRI-STAR!!! #Monsterdon

@MatthewTitus88 Meanwhile, Burgess Meredith, Maggie Smith, and Laurence Oliver can act, even when they have no idea what’s going on.

#Monsterdon

*princess Andromeda's astral projection walks in a daze towards a golden cage barely the size of a telephone booth, sits down inside of it, and is borne aloft to parts unknown by a giant turkey vulture or roc or some such*

Still more leg room in that rig than on Air Canada flights though

#monsterdon

Harry Hamlin is doing his best. I can actually see him trying to act, but he has no idea what's going on here. He is in so far over his head. #monsterdon

So, she’s getting in the cage, but she’s not really getting in the cage because she’s asleep in the bed.

Meanwhile, Perseus is just standing there, invisible and gawking, like an idiot.

#Monsterdon

I could watch this vulture all day :D #Monsterdon

That's how every woman sleeps at night, little known fact

#Monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

So a man has to solve a riddle to marry the princess and if he doesn't he dies?

Now he's going to sing Nessun Dorma?

#monsterdon #clashofthetitans

Perseus is really letting his sole exposed nipple (SEP) lead his stride. #monsterdon

@paco @goinfawr #monsterdon

OMFG that's got to be a reaction meme.

Would you question a talking shield? #monsterdon #clashofthetitans

Okay sure maybe the helmet will make him invisible but then the Nazgul will know where he is

#Monsterdon

I like Zeus's little clay dolls.

If I was a god I'd get a sand-table with little figures too. #monsterdon

Yeah, that sword slices through solid molded styrofoam #Monsterdon

It's official, Maggie Smith (Thetis) is the original Blahaj! :blobhaj_innocent:

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Ammon! He broke his glasses, now he's got all the time in the world to read, but no way to ... read... ;)

I don't remember Zeus' divine powers being so arts-and-crafts based. #monsterdon

Zeus: Murder's wrong.

Also Zeus: Lol watch me drown this city, it's hilarious

#Monsterdon

Styrofoam stonemasonry! A long lost art.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon I'm glad that the story of my conception (probably) didn't involve a golden shower.

I need that background for my home office zooms #monsterdon

"Does it matter?"

Yeah, it's just ONE kid. Who cares, right?

Hera gets off the airplane wearing a coat that says I DON'T CARE DO U on the back >_> #Monsterdon

Marty B is more enthralling than #Monsterdon sorry folks.

A bird got stuck in the WinAmp visualizer again. #monsterdon

Wait who put Monty Python and the Holy Grail in the VCR?

#Monsterdon #ClashoftheTitans

AND SIR LAURENCE OLIVIER!

No, seriously this time. #Monsterdon

Nobody puts baby in the corner #monsterdon #clashofthetitans

THEIR BLOOD IS NOT ON OUR HANDS #monsterdon

#ClashOfTheTitans shows us that it's okay to watch a decent movie for #Monsterdon.

The slow pace of the creepy scenes worked great. The combat with Medusa was especially taut. But the whole movie was that slow, even in exposition scenes. It seemed to take forever for Perseus to get his gear together. And the movie came to a dead halt every time we visited Zeus's executive suite.

It was lovely to see so much Harryhausen stop motion. The giant scorpions were great. Bubo the Owl was very cute. But I think some things could have been a puppet (Charon), or a just a guy in heavy makeup and appliances (Calibos).

Finally, I applaud all the big name actors for taking the material seriously and giving us their best, with only a wee bit of scenery chewing.

Thanks everyone for selecting this, and thanks @Taweret for hosting!

@jadebees well, you know, a bunch of 'em burnt out already

cheap ancient greek light bulbs just don't last

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

@littlemiao The worst news about this movie

#Monsterdon

@nazokiyoubinbou Did you get the OwlPhone 13 with USB-C? I still have use a LightningOwl cable.
#monsterdon

@Terencio @jmjm @ohiofi lol okay I could get behind a confused Perseus meme template

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonMemes

@diazona @SnoopJ @jmjm @ohiofi Yay-ti’s nipple is closing the gap.

#Monsterdon

@diazona Oh good to know

He keeps the pegasus, doesn't he

#Monsterdon

And another #monsterdon comes to an end.

Gods were petty, heroes were not particularly adept, and Greek mythology was paraphrased.

Till next time!

Thank you all who participated, and as always thanks to @Taweret for hosting.

That's a wrap! Thanks as always to @Taweret for setting things in motion!
#monsterdon

This poet hasn’t once uttered one line of poetry during the entire film.

#Monsterdon

"And what if those heroes made Social Networks and watched bad movies together!?!" #monsterdon

and the Kraken got fucked off into the sea

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

the Kraken cracked

#monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

I'm confused about just how Medusa's head works, Perseus can look at it after she is dead but it still works on the kraken?

#Monsterdon

Chekhov’s gorgon head #monsterdon

*Perseus struggles with the knot he tied in his magical red cloak to contain the vileness of Medusa's head concealed within*

Just cut it! Cut it! Cut the knot!

oh no wait, different myth, sorry

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

The kraken: also great. Want to see it fight godzilla

#Monsterdon

HOW IS THAT A KRAKEN 😠

THAT IS A HUMANOID, A MONSTER FROM THE BLACK LAGOON...SEA!!

#Monsterdon

Godzilla! Er, Kraken! #monsterdon

this krakenhonk could have been an email

#monsterdon

I remember this sequence SO SO MUCH and I would replay it using the head of an old doll with my friends #monsterdon #clashofthetitans

#monsterdon Riiiicollllaaaaaa!

bubo is IP68-rated

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Finally, side-prick gets the skewer. See ya, wrinkly jerkface. LOL. Poor flying horses…

well now you've done it, Perseus, you've made all the OTHER gods mad. #monsterdon

Go on, turn the sun to stone

#Monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

i wonder how calibos is doing

#monsterdon

Perseus! Use bombs wisely! Do a barrel roll!

#monsterdon

The moment I've been waiting for. #Monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

This week's #Monsterdon pick (which I'm not watching tonight) is a movie I remember seeing in the theatre as a child? I didn't understand it at all at the time and was kind of freaked out by it then, so I've never really given it another try.

Per Wikipedia: The pupper's name was Dioskilos. #RIPDioskilos #Monsterdon #ClashOfTheTitans

Guy has a Pink Floyd pig on his shield. What a boss

#monsterdon

@CactuarJoe If I’ve learned anything, it’s that the gods punish people by deforming them, and then others fear them and try to kill them.

Everyone is awful.
