#Monsterdon oh was this filmed in 3D? Who could've guessed?

close up batch shot of the diver as he swims over our faces
#Monsterdon

I bet that shot was thrilling for the ladies in 3D. #Monsterdon

3D swimming scenes demand more doppler effect for immersion.

#monsterdon #TheCreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

3D diver crotch

#monsterdon

Just keep swimming, just keep swimming

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon They're going to give the Jaguars STD's with all that smooching. Be careful if you start squeezing titties, they could suddenly pop. Airbags.

They forgot to mention the giant leaches. Sorry, scuba guy. #monsterdon

Damn. Those fish can really act.

#Monsterdon

lol, oh good...'underwater scenes'

#Monsterdon

Didn't peg the guy for a Jethro Tull fan. #Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

In the all the silt and tannin of the Amazon basin, they found the one clear patch of water. #Monsterdon

  TRIVIA FROM THE BLACK LAGOON

On staff at the Universal group scoring this movie: Henry Mancini (uncredited) .

#CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

#monsterdon "I'll get the auqalung." ah the Jethro Tull maneuver

All of this water is much clearer than I would have ever expected. #monsterdon

Hey, he changed into lighter colored shorts once he got into the water. #Monsterdon

@yatsu Nods, smiles, and slowly backs away.

#monsterdon

@wohali@timeloop.cafe I ate fibrous rocks, but they gave me mesothelioma :/

#Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

@diazona It can sense her ankles

#monsterdon

I know that's technically a spear gun but I say it's also a ✅ Harpoon

Close enough!

#Monsterdon

@steggy when combined with the "roll test"...

#Monsterdon

Haven't posted for the first 20 minutes, but I've been watching along.

This is great!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon oh the diving scene. and she's changed into a swimsuit

#monsterdon
Who eats rocks? I do, in a manner of speaking..

this guy does not know what eating is #monsterdon

"Who eats rocks?"

"I do! Lots of fiber."

#monsterdon

@kcarr2015 yup

#Monsterdon

Mark is a doink

#Monsterdon

"AQUALUNG!" he exclaims in Jazz

#Monsterdon

Ah yes, the "rock test" will prove everythibng.

#Monsterdon

Monster seems like a bit of a perv. 🤨

#Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

#Monsterdon 🌊 🔦🐸🐊🧜‍♂️ 😱

I'm happy to arrived at the Black Lagoon now I hope we can find a Creature!

Is anyone going to ask if it matters that it looks like all the other jungle stock footage we've seen so far? #monsterdon

afraid you won't die in these waters, maybe

#monsterdon #BlackLagoon1954

Having watched a lot of Time Team, this seems like a fairly well organized expedition. #monsterdon

#monsterdon
Chekov's speargun.

We can't stop here. It's Swamp Thing territory. #Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

what a world, what a world

#monsterdon #BlackLagoon1954

Ah, the boat captain is allowed to have a personality because he's ethnic

#Monsterdon

Julie A reminds me of Brooke S ...

#CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon_1954 #monsterdon

Boats in this #monsterdon rated by coolness:

1. the Rita (big boat, has steamship and sails, super awesome)
2. scuba diving motorboat (I call this one the "Butt Explorer")
3. regular rowboat (dinghy, towed by the Rita, still cool).

#monsterdon
The speargun, a positive weapon. What are you going to shoot at? My co-workers.

Skipper seems like a guy who would make love with a dead iguana

#monsterdon

Cupid's own speargun.

Now you're in love with a boatmast.

#monsterdon #creatureFromTheBlackLagoon

Her eyebrows are really making the film, for me

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon *randomly shoots spear gun at part of the boat for no reason* 'murica

Checkovs speargun
#monsterdon

“If there’s any chance of publicity, just try to keep him away.” Some things never change. #Monsterdon #creaturefromtheblacklagoon

I love harpoon guns! They're comfy and easy to shoot!

#Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

@amyfou Boat shoes would be best, but ballet flats are still far better than wearing high heels on the Amazon would have been! (see various dinosaur movies, etc.) #Monsterdon #CreaturefromtheBlackLagoon

#monsterdon We need to piss away the budget to earn a bigger budget next year! Someone fetch me coffee, and I'll just wave this lit cigarette all over and ignore it, because, product placement.

Lovely Rita Science Barge

#monsterdon
#CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

#monsterdon ooh a speargun!

#Monsterdon I kinda love our ship captain. Guy's got a great attitude. Has a real "ha-ha-ha they're all gonna die" vibe.

@SordidAmok I love the smell of Gillman in the morning. It smells like.. rotting tuna. #Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

A paradise? Why not Golden Lagoon? #monsterdon

wait, they've been dating 6 months, and her dad's already pestering them to get married? jesus, dad, back off.

#monsterdon

Dangerous to have an open flame anywhere near her hair #monsterdon

[ big cat growling ] #monsterdon

This captain is just a barrel of laughs. Everything kills us here, no one comes back from this lagoon there...just nonstop fun.

#monsterdon #creatureFromTheBlackLagoon

#monsterdon is this one of the sources for all them recent jungle river films?

@Vanalope more like spectating a golf game LOL

#monsterdon

@srol the color of DANGER (gray) #monsterdon

"I don't know, going into unexplored territory with a woman?"

The sixties are on their way, gentlemen, get ready

#Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

My boys call it the “Black Lagoon”

He said the it, he said the name of the movie!

#monsterdon

@OliviaVespera The territory called... equal rights and equal pay. Completely unexplored since the Devonian.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I want to be friends with the captain

THE BLACK LAGOON #monsterdon

wait what there are two young scientist guys? am i seeing double? it's just the same guy isn't it?
#monsterdon

"Going into unexplored territory with a woman."

"Oh, my territory's not *that* unexplored."

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon This isn't the best river in the world, this is just a tributary

The Captain character is wild, and I don’t mean that as a compliment #Monsterdon

I like the levelheaded short king

#Monsterdon

Half a title drop.
#Monsterdon #CreatureFromtheBlackLagoon

#Monsterdon 🌊 🔦🐸🐊🧜‍♂️ 😱

there's lots of 'what it means/takes to be a (good) scientist' talk on this expedition that's not how it really goes I don't think

"The chances of anything coming from ... here," are a million to one, he said...
#Monsterdon #CreaturefromtheBlackLagoon

I want some of whatever the skipper's drinkin' #Monsterdon #CreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

#monsterdon That's a lot of schist.

The way they describe amazon animals is so exaggerated. Imagine this people in Australia 😂
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon
Science is always taking the remote chance. Really... well, I keep learning things about science from this film..

"Dedication doesn't mean risking the lives of others. Other than your grad students."

#Monsterdon

WHy is her pith helmet shaped like a ball cap and more fashionable?
#Monsterdon #CreatureFromtheBlackLagoon

#monsterdon she looks like Jadzia Dax

"We have one problem. Going into unexplored territory with A WOMAN"

JESUS CHRIST SHUT THE FUCK UP

#monsterdon #TheCreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

@Taweret The creature has to wave that hand in the air so the enamel will dry #monsterdon

@nev staying still and doing nothing for a long time is also a top tier trait fs #monsterdon

Has he intentionally rolled his shirt sleeves up to that "perfect point" where the biceps dip inwards? That's hilariously vain.

#Monsterdon

There's that 1950's sexism, right on schedule

#Monsterdon

maybe the creature will do her a favor and eat that hat

#monsterdon

#monsterdon going into unexplored territory with A WOMAN

Where’s Kay? —She’s out by the claw. #Monsterdon

"Where does this stream end" something tells me it's the Pacific Ocean #monsterdon #creaturefromtheblacklagoon

Look, Niles, I don't really need to hear about your

#monsterdon #BlackLagoon1954

#Monsterdon guy runs a research institute and he thinks this is already a failure.

Eight days isn't exactly a lot of time for a paleontology dig, if you're looking for one specific thing.

#monsterdon #TheCreatureFromTheBlackLagoon

A lagoon at the end of it.

A “black” lagoon?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Oh here we go--pointy-bra-ed damsel soon to be in distress. Didn't see that one coming /s

Ya think African Queen Humphrey Bogart's gonna live long? #Monsterdon

Why don't you use dynamite
#monsterdon
