@apLundell that does explain those Ewok movies....

#Monsterdon

i was entertained and i liked at least three of the characters. #critt3rs is not the worst thing i've watched for #monsterdon

@paco Exactly
#monsterdon

Boy, if you did not stay for those credits…
#Monsterdon

hard to believe that was less than 90 minutes long. thanks #monsterdon folks and thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#monsterdon It's a shame the Ewok movies are only on Disney. They'd be great for #monsterdon

its like how godfather 2 is better than 1 but then godfather 3 is a letdown

the Critters movies are just like the godfather is what I'm saying

#monsterdon

I wasn't even really paying attention for parts 👀

#monsterdonBingo #Monsterdon #Critters3

"Dad, you're useless" #monsterdon

how did they make our nasty little evil muppets so boring

you monsters

#monsterdon #critt3rs

Please, no.
#monsterdon

No matter how bad the film is I do love my Crits
#monsterdon

The ending to the movie is interspersed in the credits? Haven't seen that before!

Thanks for the fun time, everyone. And congrats, bingo winners!

Goodnight, Monster people.

#monsterdon

"Absoluetly no Critters were harmed in the making of this movie."

#Monsterdon #Critters3

#monsterdon UG! in at the last possible second! Here to show us the POWER OF THE NIIIIGHT

I feel ya Charlie this movie had me yellin' Ug a lot too

#Monsterdon

Oh look, it’s Brother Dusk.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

This movie just fucked off into part 4. Without any explanation...

@CactuarJoe

Critterpussy

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon This was so much a "We've still got some left over props, how cheaply can we make a movie?"

Kind of like the Ewok movies.

"Power of the Night" ass triflin' space bureaucrat

#Monsterdon

Well that was a lot of fun! Thank you for hosting, @Taweret. I hope everyone has a great week as we look forward to the next #Monsterdon!

Sequel bait. I guess now we must vote for Critters 4. #monsterdon #damn

the council says no critter total genocide... fair i guess

#monsterdon

The Critters series floundered a bit from Critters 4 through 8, before going in a new direction for Critters 9, which was REALLY good, and had a very different design for the crites, too.

#Monsterdon

This whole Charlie sequence is just them realizing their movie was too short, right

#Monsterdon

Monsterdon. Just because there is a sequel doesn't me we have to watch it. We could watch Leprechaun instead or something.
#Monsterdon #Critters3

There is more plot going on in the credits than there was the whole movie,
#Monsterdon

Help me obi wan critobi #Monsterdon

This is kinda a dirty trick to get us to watch all the credits…

#Monsterdon #Critt3rs

#monsterdon

Lazlo had a hell of an agent.

Oh no, his Simon activated

#Monsterdon

@allanb I guess they didn't have quarantines until 1997

#Monsterdon #Critters3

Another #Monsterdon is in the can!

Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!

Tonight's feature, #Critters3, from 1991, marks the second return of our favorite extra terrestrial hungry hungry furballs. Highlights were in short supply, but we did have,

lol, called it, ....that's Politics Charlie....you can't fight Coruscant/Trantor or whatever it is....

#Monsterdon

@jivens Ok. Ever notice that when someone digs a hole in a movie it’s perfect? The corners are 90 degrees, the walls plumb and true, and the hole is like 6 feet deep and they did it all by hand with just a shovel and it only took a couple hours? Yeah, no fucking way. #Monsterdon

Oh good. A setup for Critters 4.

Look, guys, this was surprisingly fun, but enough is enough…

#Monsterdon #Critt3rs

@yatsu Yeah. but the upside is that at least it is over

#monsterdon

Thank you so much for enduring Critters 3 with me, #monsterdon !

As always a big thank you to @Taweret for coordinating, and extra thanks for @cherizilla for the bingo and @JoeWynne for the trivia!

Hope to see y'all next week for ABSOLUTELY NOT CRITTERS 4. Don't let @Taweret hoodwink you!

I've come close to a #MonsterdonBingo tonight, but the #crites were uncharacteristically dumb this time around! Oh well, maybe in Critters 4! #Monsterdon

Well they did it. They made the movie #Monsterdon

So you were bitten and stung by filthy aliens and not going into quarantine?

#monsterdon

@ohiofi We don't get a lot of those in Monsterdon!

#monsterdon #critters3

is that Charlie's space job calling them?

Will that Pop Singer Bounty Hunter be coming back in No 4

I like how this end credits sequence is just more movie really

#MOnsterdon

yeah if there's one thing paramedics do it's definitely stop moving patients so they can make small talk

#monsterdon #critt3rs

@allanb That'll leave a mark? #Monsterdon

relocation fee? what is this, the USSR?

#monsterdon

We see Weird Forest Guy snooping in the basement, laser submachine gun at the ready, and then credits start rolling as he spots something. Like he snoops around, then points his gun at something then credits play for a bit. Then he snoops around more. then it freezes and we get more credits.

It's like that game where a cat freezes and unfreezes when a camera is pointed at it, only when the cat freezes there are credits.

#monsterdon

So, Leo DiCaprio regrets making this movie.

And… why? It's stupid, but he was a kid and it's actually kinda fun.

#Monsterdon #Critt3rs

Still a better two parter finale than Harry Potter....

#Monsterdon

@ohiofi In #Monsterdon ? NEVER

#Monsterdon #Critters3

i have to go, son

i've got two outstanding warrants and that's before last night's shenanigans

#monsterdon #critt3rs

Right in that brief window where Leo could hit on a girl that age and NOT be a creep.

#monsterdon #critters3

@gnomon movie physics is just different

#Monsterdon #Critters3

lol, sequel hook....

I mean, 3 and 4 were filmed at the same time so why not?

#Monsterdon

It is the next day and the press is interviewing everyone involved in this arson / alien invasion. The daughter and Joshua agree to go on a date. The weird forest guy says bye to the son. The dad decides to switch his job from "railroad guy" to "phone company guy".

Then Joshua's mom appears and offers the family a relocation fee so they can stay somewhere while their apartment is rebuilt.

#monsterdon

Charlie you BROKE THE CAMPER SHELL!

#monsterdon

i wonder how the shapeshifting aliens are doing

#monsterdon

the critters franchise lost its soul with this movie

#monsterdon

Really not a surprise that there are a few loose screws in this movie

literally and otherwise

#Monsterdon #Critters3

thinking about that time in School when everyone had those 90s 'curtains'

What is it with Marcia and the 'phone company', is it drugs?

#MOnsterdon

@jonny @holly It actually says it's an "American science fiction comedy horror direct-to-video film" which has got to be the most qualifiers I've ever seen on a movie.

#Monsterdon

Leo looking very "Titanic scamp" there....

#Monsterdon

oh dear tension is trying to build so hard
#monsterdon

They're aliens from the planet Explodium 9.
#monsterdon

I wonder what that dad was doing

#monsterdon #critters3

They must live in Kitty Genovese’s old neighborhood.

Too soon?

#Monsterdon

There are still something like 18 minutes of runtime left in this movie. Let's all pray for a #3ritters katamari. This could still get good.

#monsterdon

Is... is that a bean gun?

#monsterdon #critters3

Nobody questions the logic of firing off explosive ordnance in a tiny crawlspace

#Monsterdon #Critters3

"Fuck your RV!"

#Monsterdon

industrial district sleeps tonight.

#monsterdon

Well there went the budget

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #critt3rs i'm so glad the old lady got a good kill in with the giant cleaver

Critters in a Die Hard isn't the worst idea for a sequel, but like the building should be filled with rowdy teens we want to see eaten or something.
I guess Critters movies don't have the biggest body counts (outside of the Crites) but this just feels padded with far too many characters.
#Monsterdon #Critters3

as everyone's noted there are so many lost comedic moments in this. it just needed a single workshop

#monsterdon

This is also how I deal with feral cats, just get a blanket over them and... ideally put them in a carrier.

#monsterdon #critters3

Here we go 🫧🫧🫧

#Monsterdon

Has no one bothered to learn the Critters language? This could all just be a misunderstanding #Monsterdon

@msh
IDK, I've been in some interesting maintenance spaces.

But I have to say, meeting even ordinary critters in them with constricted movement is among my bigger fears.

#Monsterdon

I think the Marcia thing with her flailing on the end of a cord is supposedly comical?

#monsterdon

This building has been on a fire for a *very* long time now...

#monsterdon #critt3rs

#Monsterdon Is it just me or did this really slow down?

Before cell phones we all had to hang out of windows and use our body weight to swing ourselves toward pay phone booths

#Monsterdon #Critters3

You got little hands, reach under the mower and pull that stick out. #Monsterdon #Critters3

oofff, granny is skilled with the blade...

#Monsterdon

Hi #monsterdon what type of Critters 3 character are you?

I wanted to add more options but I can only put four things on a poll.

It's nice that falling 2 stories and having her whole body weight pull on her leg didn't, you know, rip her leg out of its socket or anything. Didnt' even hurt.
#monsterdon

Blackie is a soprano. #Monsterdon #CrittersCrittersCritters #Critt3rs

saved! by the previous movie!

#monsterdon

Kill crites. #Monsterdon #Critt3rs

oh it's THE CRITE ALARM

okaaaaay

#monsterdon

#monsterdon FOUR puppets!

A lot of bum-steer tension building scenes in this one
#monsterdon

okay they have names apparently

#monsterdon #critt3rs

This critter was clearly an opera singer back on its home planet

#Monsterdon #Critters3

Cute rodent alert!

#Monsterdon

@Lazarou @klu9 I've heard of software bugs, but this is ridiculous! #Monsterdon

@klu9 @Lazarou Angry Critters

People would eat it up
