The truth will out

#Monsterdon

Oh they are tiny aliens. Little foot tall fuzzy dudes.
#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

#Monsterdon never disappoints

This might not be well advised... but oh! What a gesture!

#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

Yay pyromania and violence
#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

Why not poison the fish. Nice. 😐

#monsterdon

At least it's before the wedding?

#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

I am more invested in the relationship of the characters in this movie than last one. Involved in wanting them to break up.
#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

Holy shit....from LetterBoxd

"Christopher Walken gets an extraterrestrial anal probing and refuses to believe the little Grey's would play with his tight little butthole. After some therapy and hypnotism he realizes he actually is down to clown."

Am fuckin dying here!! #monsterdon

see? the cat knows he's a DOG

#monsterdon #WrongCommunion

This is just so joyful, it's healing something in me that Communion broke ​:beeperParty:​

#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

Oh wow, this is a musical? Ambitious!

#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

Okay, gotta make dinner.

#Monsterdon

An outdoor mall in the 80s? All the colors and neon. And already a way cooler truck than last movie.
#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

Pyramid energy! Perfection!

#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

oops, I was wrong. spoke waaay too soon.

there’s no hope.

#monsterdon #earthgirlsareeasy

That was, indeed, a movie. #Monsterdon #communion1989

oh gods we're not gonna have to watch these folks have sex, are we?

#monsterdon #WrongCommunion

Sorry I can't make the second movie, I don't have the energy after ... that.

#Monsterdon

I miss a fun animated title sequence.
#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy

@moira hmm... well, there was definitely "A single witness" at some point, wasn't there? And I counted the cabin security system keypad as an LED light board - admittedly a little loose but not inconceivable - so there'd be an argument for a bingo if anything in that movie qualifies as a slug, crab, or ray

#Monsterdon #Communion #EinaPlobe

That was certainly something. I’m actually speechless.

As always, thanks to @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for the bingo card, @JoeWynne for the drink recipe and trivia, @ryan for the live stream, @paco for data analysis at https://gallery.don.monster, @combatwombat for the replay, and all of you for making it awesome!

#Monsterdon

And "Star Wars Holiday Special" hologram TNA programming for dirty old alien men.

#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy #DoubleFeature

Rimmer with his Venusian telekinetic chopsticks.

#Monsterdon #EarthGirlsAreEasy #DoubleFeature

Strieber's _War Day_ was an interesting book. This, uh...

#Monsterdon

So he partied with the aliens and effed off to...the roof?

THE END

okaaaayyyy well THAT #Monsterdon was certainly a trip...with no destination...

...too much electric guitar and NO COWBELL WHATSOEVER...if there was COWVELL I could forgive the complete lack of plot.

Anyways the aliens were fun so there is that. thanks @Taweret for the out of the world experience!

This was actually fun y'all. Thanks, #Monsterdon friends.

🦖#MONSTERDON

I wonder what reality is up to

Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting!

Now off to watch the cannot-possibly-be-worse Earth Girls Are Easy double feature on @miru

#Monsterdon #Communion #EinaPlobe

#Monsterdon is sending ourselves to bed without supper for our decisions this week. 😂 Thanks for being so funny, gang! And thanks for hosting and trivia @Taweret @JoeWynne

Anyway, thanks @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for the bingo, @JoeWynne for trivia, @ryan for the stream, and everyone else for being such witty company!

Gonna watch "Weapon of Choice" now to cleanse my brain.

#Monsterdon

It had hats, probes, groups, ummm... dancing?

Yeah. great film. Let's never talk about it again.

Thanks to all who make this happen each week! See ya' next time,

#monsterdon

Based on a true story!

The nerve.

#monsterdon #Communion1989

No? We were robbed.

#Monsterdon #Communion1989

and the things he (real life strieber) and his wife decide together as they repair their lives.... also become foundational beliefs for real human beings who believe in aliens

#monsterdon

When was the communion, though? Did anything transubstantiate at all?

#Monsterdon

BASED ON A TRUE STORY LOL #monsterdon #communion

Literally the only good thing about this movie is that the cast includes a credit for "Praying Mantis Girl" #Monsterdon

I could be playing pokemon blue on mgba for almost 2 hours instead of this movie #monsterdon

OMG They specifically thanked the Whitney Museum of American art! So that was probably shot there! Those paintings were real!

#Monsterdon

What's with this guitar in the credits? What?

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989

Thank you #Monsterdon #Communion1989 crowd and @miru for making our part of it happen. It's been big, like a light!

I started with a headache, but it's gone now. Surprisingly.

#MonsterdoBingo was a little all over the place tonight #Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989

Peak #monsterdon watching today. Not whatever movie they're watching, which sounds like a trial of patience, but the watching of the tag, which is wonderful today.

So the answer was just to embrace the #visitors and write a book with them. The book is far better, I recommend it over the movie!

Thanks for the watch party #Monsterdon and thank you @Taweret for hosting!

Have a great week everyone!

Did I miss the “Dance Magic Dance” scene?

#communion #monsterdon

The reason they needed these credits at the end was just to give Clapton one more opportunity to solo.

#monsterdon

And then, instead of fucking off, they got fucked by a rectal probe.

Thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon

We have to endure a WHERE ARE THEY NOW SEQUENCE?

Oh wait, credits are rolling.

Thank something I don't know what any more.

#monsterdon #Communion1989

The blue guy actors are not credited, of course #monsterdon

Well that film was genuinely terrible.
It had zero idea of what tone to pick or of pacing.
It didn't even know what genre it wanted to be.

#Monsterdon #Communion

Another Sunday ends down at the old #monsterdon

I don't think that this movie was big, like a light. #Monsterdon #Communion1989

#monsterdon #communion1989
This is the end!
My only Friend!
The End!
(After having suffered through this)

So far from bingo today

#Monsterdon #Communion #EinaPlobe

so like

what was that?

why was that?

the answer to how was that is known. Not Good.

Goodnight Everybody!

#monsterdon

Thanks @Taweret for hosting. Boo to #Monsterdon for voting! 😛

#Monsterdon #Communion1989

changed my mind. i’m going to to take a bunch of zoloft instead.

#monsterdon #communion

That is the Guy Fawkes Mask Intergalactic Edition innit? #Monsterdon

Wow. Before this movie, I wanted to die. Now I want to die in a whole different way. Thanks #Monsterdon!

Well, that was, technically, a movie #Monsterdon

look bro if you are claiming that an extraterrestrial intelligence is fine with chatting with you and only you then you better cough up some new fuckin transistors or quantum suchandsuch and not some shitty autobiographical novel #monsterdon

And it ends with expositive subs because the author is shit.

#monsterdon #communion

that was a lousy movie for sucha god kid actor
#monsterdon

OMG FINALLY #monsterdon #communion1989

Making out at an art gallery. As one does. #Monsterdon #communion1989

#Monsterdon 🌌👽 🛸🫣 ⁉️ 👨‍⚕️ 😱

wait now where are they?

I will never again complain about a sudden ending.

#monsterdon

And they fucked off into, I dunno, MoMA? The New York Skyline? A foggy rooftop? Well wherever they went, I'm sure they fucked off.

Well that was… a movie. I dunno guys, it was too good to riff properly, too surreal to be comprehensible, not surreal enough to be interesting, and too dull to be scary. I'm just glad all y'all were here with me or I wouldn't have made it.

See ya' next week, and don't forget to vote tomorrow!

Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, get abducted by aliens and then write a book about it. Or play indie games. Either way.

Goodnight!

#Monsterdon #Communion1998

Wow a textual ending. The classiest of cheap endings. #Monsterdon

Whit Strieber would go on to become the Galactic Emperor.

Andy would go on to write a novel about an astrobiologist who wakes from a comma, far from Earth, with a probe up his butt, and a rock for a friend.

#Monsterdon

Hey, it's the opening scenes with the city and the towers. Hit replay.

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989

I hope this isn't one of those mobiüs movies

#monsterdon
#Communion

HE'S DIRECTLY LOOKING AT THE CAMERA AGAiN

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon, I missed so much... But I think I've got to the best bit of tonight's film. OK, thank you everyone.

Zenith? Nope. Nadir.

#Monsterdon

Putting white noise on in the background taken a bit literally there #monsterdon

Not the ending I was expecting. I thought:

Group therapy fight club

or

Group therapy orgy.

#Monsterdon #Communion 👽🛸

now he has mickey mouse hands why

#monsterdon #EinaPlobe

That's how it could have ended, but it really ended like this. ...

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiku #Communion1989

The last half-dozen scenes have been endings

#Monsterdon

Staaaaahp it!!! It huuuurts. 😂 #monsterdon

🦖#MONSTERDON Goodbye!

Tonight's feature really needed treatment by the ever-witty Real-Time Film Analysis Squad! Thank you everyone for the entertaining scroll.

❤️ And thank you @Taweret for all the hosting duties! Tonight's feature really got us thinking about how to re-use the little blue guys. My take: evil Oompa Loompas take over the Chocolate Factory.

🅱️ and thanks @cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite: "TMI".

IT KEEPS GOING #monsterdon #communion1989

and they fucked off into the EHHH???? they fucked off into that WWHAAAAT???? #monsterdon

Make the denouement end!

#Monsterdon

You know, aliens stuff usually can scare me, but this movie is really boring.
and what abut that alien party what was that?
#monsterdon
#communion1989

"And also you seem like maybe you're on just a little bit of cocaine right now?" #Monsterdon #Communion1989

just keep going back to that light spot in the forest and figuring out what they're up to idk they seem fine with chatting #monsterdon

And crawling. On the planets face.... #Monsterdon #Communion

i’m crying silently inside. like rn. this movie hurts.

#monsterdon #communion

and then we'll tell the story of THIS MOVIE in the BOOK and that'll be in the movie TOO and THEN we'll make a MOVIE that tells the story of the BOOK that's about the MOVIE that's about the BOOK and then we'll write a BOOK about the MOVIE that

#monsterdon #EinaPlobe

yeah kid, what *are* we doing

what are any of us really doing

#Monsterdon #Communion #EinaPlobe

Make the kid shut up. Don’t give him any lines.

#monsterdon #communion

"What are we doing?"

Nothing.

This movie in a nut shell. #Monsterdon

"What are we doing?"

"Nothing."

(stares back at movie)

#Monsterdon

"let's go back to bed"

wise suggestion, child.

#monsterdon #Communion1989

Was it big, like a light? #Monsterdon #Communion1989

Yes child, what are we doing
#monsterdon  

#Monsterdon 🌌👽 🛸🫣 ⁉️ 👨‍⚕️ 😱
