ok, the rock song from the first one was much better than the fast-food jingle
#monsterdon

"you'll pat your tummy etc"
i don't believe i will.
#monsterdon

omg they’re doing it #monsterdon #HungryHeifer

YES THE SONG

#monsterdon #critters2

Now, sheriff is an elected position, so this is just a symbolic gesture and you'll be ousted within the week, but y'know

#Monsterdon

Another #Monsterdon is in the can! This time with the first sequel of the year!

Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!

Tonight's feature, #Critters2TheMainCourse, from 1988, returned us to a world where fuzzy fur balls with a bristling complement of teeth and porcupine darts have a huge appetite for everything, causing all manner of mayhem and madness. We also had:

Yeah Charlie, sell the star and get new teeth
#monsterdon

this music, haha

#monsterdon

And Critters 2 goes down in Monsterdon lore as one of the better ones. Which raises the question: Critters 3? Good night!

Hey little buddies come gather round...

#monsterdon
#Critters2

Anyone else wanna go get burgers?

Thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon

This soundtrack is a major downgrade from the last one

#monsterdon

"""country jingle"""
... i...
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Grover's Bend WAS REAL.

This was pretty good special effects for the 1980s. Genuinely well done. #monsterdon

wait

Grover's Bend IS A REAL PLACE?!

#monsterdon

Wow. Movie didn't just end.

#monsterdon

Grover’s Bend is a real place?

#Monsterdon #Critters2TheMainCourse

I wonder if this is the "Critters town" like Forks WA and Twilight #monsterdon #critters2

Wait ... Grover's Bend is real?

#Monsterdon #Critters2TheMainCourse

So we come to the end of another #Monsterdon. As always, we extend our gratitude to @Taweret for hosting. Thanks to all you posters and lurkers for contributing. And remember #Monsterdoners: This town can kiss my ass.

They also have a BAR in town! You can get your BEER on draft! #Monsterdon #critters2themaincourse

ah yes, the old west "whoever has the badge is the sheriff" law #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👾 👾 👽 👽 🚀 🚀🍽️ 🍽️😱 😱

Pretty sure that's how they do Sheriff succession

Don't get too excited Charlie. Even if it did work that way, he's not even the sheriff. #monsterdon

I think he still needs to be elected…

#monsterdon

Farewell, Grover's Armpit or whatever you are called

#monsterdon

There's ten minutes left. Is it gonna be all credits? The Critters are dead.
Ugg is saying good bye.
#Monsterdon #Critters2

#Monsterdon A star is born!

Yeah this is something you keep to yourself unless drugs are involved. #monsterdon

Does the sheriff''s job come with a dental plan?

There's Power in a union!
#Monsterdon

"I'm a sheriff!"

-- Charlie

#Monsterdon

Awkward third person smile there from Harv. #Monsterdon #Critters2

I lost track of how many negatives that was. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👾 👾 👽 👽 🚀 🚀🍽️ 🍽️😱 😱

Something terrible happened to Megan's barrette couldn't they have fixed that for her?

"say listen, what just happened here?" is probably the best summary of this movie. #monsterdon

Oh look, the insurance delivery the new ship.
#monsterdon

I miss when #films were just 80 minutes...
#Critters2 #monsterdon

THANK YOU @Taweret ; Queen of #monsterdon, fedi MVP, and absolute legend.

He's got to be the director's nephew! #monsterdon

This was Hi-Tech CG of the day I guess. That's what that scene was about.

#monsterdon

It’s an Easter miracle!
#monsterdon #critters2

Bounty hunters have a great vehicle insurance program! #Monsterdon

AND HERE IT IS, THE JIFFY POP 3! #monsterdon

RAMMING SPEED!
Bounty hunter ship really could use some guns.
#Monsterdon #Critters2

They could both be Charlie I suppose, it's not like they're going to have a hard time distinguishing between each other

#Monsterdon

this just keeps getting more awkward huh 🥴

#monsterdon

charlie you can't abandon charlie like that

#monsterdon #Critters2

#Monsterdon He bigenerated!

No drone shots back then...

#Monsterdon

Yike, lower the gamma on that composited-in spaceship

#Monsterdon

hah: back when it took Actual Effort to make an actor interact with themselves…

80s
#monsterdon

Question answered.

#Monsterdon

At least the day was not saved by carob.

#monsterdon

I wish I was inside a big critter ball rolling it through town.
#Monsterdon #Critters2

look they were waiting the WHOLE FILM for this practical effect, okay? #monsterdon

When they tried to replicate this scene on "Mythbusters"' "Critsbusters" episode, they had to add a whole mess of C4 to get the same explosion.

#monsterdon

about time AAA got here

#monsterdon #Critters2

#Monsterdon now charlie is his own best friend <3

Hell. to. the fuck. yes. #monsterdon

Oh booooo #letcharliestaydead #monsterdon

That two-charlie matte job is a little crusty.

#monsterdon #critters2

AND THEN THERE WERE TWO CHARLIES #monsterdon

Turns out the real monster was the carob.

#Monsterdon

So, who's gonna explain to Ug that instantly transforming into Charlie is inappropriate. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👾 👾 👽 👽 🚀 🚀🍽️ 🍽️😱 😱

CHARLIE

WHAT A HORRIBLE MATTE

#Monsterdon #Critters2

Ghoulies when? #monsterdon

Update: never mind

#Monsterdon

This totally is not a brick of weed. It's cake. #Monsterdon

this romance is so not believable lol

#monsterdon

he doesn't want to haul your ass cherrif

at least not all the way to alaska

#monsterdon #Critters2

WAS I RIGHT OR WHAT?

#monsterdon

Spinach-cashew…cake?

#Monsterdon #Critters2TheMainCourse

I was trying to figure out which of the two was being green-screened; but I think it was both xD
#Critters2 #monsterdon

But Ugg and Lee don't have a ship anymore

#Monsterdon

Big ball keep on turnin
Polar Burger keep on burnin
Rollin
Rollin
Rollin lots of critters
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👾 👾 👽 👽 🚀 🚀🍽️ 🍽️😱 😱

Wait but does Ug taking the form of Charlie redeem Charlie or is it just an homage ?

I'll be honest, one of the highlights for me of this movie is the old cars. :)

#Monsterdon #Critters2

Ug moves to florida and opens a gator ranch. #Monsterdon #Critters2

"I'll never be that hungry, Nana."

#monsterdon #critters2

Just lost my fedi-chick virginity.
#unrelated
#Monsterdon

Yeah this movie was definitely better than the first, and the first was fun

#Monsterdon

So, does Ug just live on earth now?

#Monsterdon

@Taweret

You thought the first big explosion was the end, but no, a giant CriteBall rolls out and an even LARGER explosion is needed!!

#Monsterdon

Now Ug is permanently stranded on earth. I smell spin off... #Monsterdon #Critters2

Goodness gracious great balls of Krites.
#Monsterdon #Critters2

I guess the spaceship counts? 🥴

#monsterdon

Nana making sure you never get hungry.
(just not the way she intended xD)
#Critters2 #monsterdon

Because this was before the advent of smartphones, nobody got video of the Spaceship landing in broad daylight.

Did they just leave Human Charlie on Earth for losing the ship?

He'll be back on the bottle then...

#Monsterdon

They can just put him back together again… right? RIGHT?!

#critters2 #monsterdon

#monsterdon #Critters2

did…did he just strand Ugg on earth…?

#monsterdon

aw, sorry Charlie... ya did good. #monsterdon

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA oh my god, I didn't see that coming. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👾 👾 👽 👽 🚀 🚀🍽️ 🍽️😱 😱

CHARLIE ftw!

Alas poor Critter Ball. You were too pure for this world. #Monsterdon #Critters2

hmm did they blow up a car yet?

#monsterdon

I just realized, what they were trying to do to those poor critters was exactly the same horror out of "Come and See"

#Monsterdon

Rubbing is racing folks

#Monsterdon

Someone should have told Charlie how to drive. #Monsterdon #Critters2
