MR P LOVES YOU
#monsterdon #DeathRace2000
#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000 i love calamity jane's bedazzled helmet
boobs #monsterdon #deathrace2000
the thing about this movie is that you don't really need any plot or exposition because the plot is "death race" and the movie happens to be named "death race" #monsterdon
This might be an authoritarian hell-hole, but at least it's got circuses!
#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000
@brooke what is it with the midwest & nazisβ¦
"The fertile field of minority privilege" - that's exactly where the golden key gets you
I could barely tell this #Monsterdon was supposed to be in the future except for the fabulous matte painting background
I mean seeing as Reagan won in 80 the USA collapse in 79 makes a lot of sense
#monsterdon
Hey, I like his platform. Is he running in the midterms? #Monsterdon
I distrust monochromatic suits in movies
Except in The Matrix where it's awesome
It's a good thing this movie has no modern parallels in reality.
We have smoking!
The background, futuristic city mattes are pretty cool.
Half these cars look like barely-modded Stingrays, don't they?
But wait. How are the Nazis part of this society? That's weirder to me than the guy w/ prosthetic limb upgrades. #Monsterdon
pit stops? wimps

Roger Corman and Robert Thom wrote the initial scripts that Director Paul Bartel called "unshootable."
Even Corman called his version "kind of vile." Charles Griffith rewrote it with more satire and camp.
Thus, the film we see today is an unusual race between political satire and brutal violence.
New York has transparent transit tubes like New New York #monsterdon
Also, glad to hear the National Anthem played by my kid nephew on a Moogβ¦.and theyβre off!
OMG. Stallone.

"Hey, can you do a Howard Cosell voice?"
#monsterdon #DeathRace2000
#monsterdon lol less of a matte painting and more of a matte courtroom sketch
Simone Griffeth as Annie Smith is giving Julie Hagerty in Airplane!
Kramer?
"the world crash of '79" that's a year early for reagan's election
Frankenstein, Rocky, and John Kreese. Who will win? #Monsterdon
I can't believe it's not The Fortress of Solitude
...the fertile field of minority privilege?!
They don't make guys like this announcer anymore
Or, more specifically, they don't make the drugs he is on a cocktail of
And now on to the trippy part of the film. #DeathRace2000 #Monsterdon
Hoooboy. Talk about some bad synths there for the president's background music. Wowee....
It's Immortan Joe! #monsterdon #DeathRace2000
That announcerβs teeth have jaundice.
ARE BAD PRESIDENTS ALWAYS ORANGE????
Didn't I see this scene in Idiocracy? #Monsterdon

"Death Race: When someone tries to race you, not because of who you are, but for different reasons altogether!"
"That's a nice matte job," I said, lying.
#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000 the matte paintings of the city are amazing
It's a nice matte shot but that suspended train did _not_ work
"creamed and reamed" -this movie
Just watched First Blood on Friday. All he wanted was lunch......#monsterdon
Ah, that is exactly what NYC looks like!
#monsterdon
Frankenstein drives an alligator car because....
...
...
...logic? Uh I guess? Or something
and, cosplaying with Vector's car from Sonic Racing, it's Frankenstein!
So as someone who loves silly innuendo with friends and after two sips of someone else's drink at game night is nothing but bad puns and "that's what she said" jokes, I'm super annoyed that they're mixing my brand of terrible humor with Nazis, like knock that off you asshats, you're making me look bad
@tuckerm it's actually partial face paralysis (for real)
Half a faceβ¦and half the car bisected by that dinosaur spineβ¦ #monsterdon #DeathRace2000
The green car has teef.
#Monsterdon
I seem to remember "The Caves of Androzani" being better, and....not played by David Carradine.
Godzilla car?
Okay, that car with teeth is hilarious! #Monsterdon
Why is the announcer dressed like he's hosting Wild Kingdom?
#monsterdon #DeathRace2000
Hal a face and half a chest and all the guts in the world!!
OK, Machine Gun Joe looks just a bit familar. :D
Ugh. Stallone.
Let's hope he doesn't have any more speaking parts.
#Monsterdon
..."Creamed and reamed"? #Monsterdon
Mario Kart with stereotypes.
Frankenstein sounds like he really loves what he does #Monsterdon here.
This announcer is giving it his all and more
#monsterdon "i packed you a medical kit and some Gatorade for the race"
Creamed and reamed, you say #monsterdon
Ooh, cyborgs are good!
#Monsterdon #DeathRace2000
Yes. This man's outstretched arms are definitely the thing stopping all those reporters from getting to the driver.
#monsterdon
well, Joe Viturbo is a _terrible_ shot, apparently
I see Stallone was making that face before Rocky. TIL.
Shouldnβt that be Frankensteinβs Monster The Indestructible? #monsterdon #DeathRace2000
Adrian!!! #Monsterdon
Sylvester Stallone, five years old. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Adrian!
That shot got him the role in Rambo
Machine Gun Joe invented the concept of getting ratioed
Rambo, First Gear
normalize "welcome welcome welcome welcome welcome" as a chant for real #monsterdon
actually it's Frankenstein's navigator, Frankenstein was actually the-- #monsterdon
#monsterdon convenient that plucked brows and frosted eyeshadow came back in the 90s eh
EEEYYYYYY IT'S STALLONE
How does Sylvester Stallone drive at night with those Thompsons⦠#monsterdon #DeathRace2000
giant hood-mounted knife
the...bayonet-mobile is A CHOICE
i mean i really don't see much difference from reality #monsterdon #deathrace2000
F's in the audience
"Loved by thousands hated by millions" great line. #Monsterdon #DeathRace2000
Itβs like a tableau of famous faces from the 80s, just on the verge of figuring out how to act! #Monsterdon
So it's like if NASCAR and pro wrestling had a baby. #monsterdon
Loved by thousands, hated by millions!
#monsterdon #deathrace2000
LOVED BY THOUSANDS HATED BY MILLIONS #monsterdon #DeathRace2000
that was a rough first 5 minutes to miss, the intro in this movie rules #monsterdon
Absolutely NO desire to do #monsterdon :P ROAD??? Stallone??? Cars????
@nev Just wait until Thomasina Paine
But does Frankenstein have a little cooling rod gizmo in the side of his head like Scorpius from Farscape?
