"they have monsters where we are" yeah, we can see you there on the screen. #Monsterdon

It's just like Jurassic Park. #Monsterdon

Why is there no time delay from the moon, like in 2001? #monsterdon

oh so _that's_ where I left all those zero-point magnets

#monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

"There is food in abundance here, and the monsters are free to eat as much of it as they please."

Including EACH OTHER.

#Monsterdon

"The monsters won't frighten you when they're small like this..."
"Nothing frightens me."
What a badass #monsterdon

They go WAY sci-fi for this one. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

smokin’ that red #monsterdon

the monsters are free to eat as many dolphins as they please

#monsterdon

I was hoping it would be this

#Monsterdon

They're confined with spritzers? Must be spraying scented Febreeze :/ #Monsterdon

TETSUOOOOO
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters #Akira

The magnetic walls look just like wifi! #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

@joewynne cheaper than Jurassic Park, that's for sure

#Monsterdon

It’s a Who’s Who of Monsters. Only the most notable get to live on this island. #Monsterdon

oh wow, long distance call!
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

note to self: make a gif out of Gojira being like "fuck this I'm out" #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Rodan ("What is Love?" starts playing)

*humming the Jurassic Park theme* #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

A command center manned by DEVO! #monsterdon

what a job, put on the yellow jumpsuit and stare at those ugly mugs all day long. #Monsterdon

i want a dedicated TV PHONE ROOM
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Ooh, do we get to see Godzilla doing radio calisthenics?

#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

"contained within scientific walls"

#Monsterdon

So they have a kaiju-sized electric fence, is that what they're telling us here? #Monsterdon

Mothras all "WHO FARTED" #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

Welcome to Mutual of Osaka's Wild Kingdom of Monsters!

#monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Rodin? Like the artist? #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

McdonaldLand is more creepy and uninviting than MonsterLand TBH #Monsterdon

Invisible magnetic force screen, sure, why not

#Monsterdon

aw, not the dolphins! #monsterdon

The Incredibles looks different
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Did a poop just amble by?

#monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Awww, at least it's a humane special monster prison island #monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

and gorosaurus was also there

#monsterdon

wahh my partner is running remote dnd in the other room so this is going to take awhile. here i thought i had the movie several days ago #Monsterdon

That's Rodan after the facelift. #Monsterdon

How did they get the monsters to agree to stay on the island? Especially the flying ones? #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

Rodan just smacking into that magnetic force screen like a sparrow into a plate glass window. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Why? What does fish farming have to do with space, notorious for not having water?

#monsterdon

I've only been to Monsterland, I've never been to Monster World, much less Monster Paris.

#monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

"the flying creature can go short distances before being stopped by the fake scenery, truman show style"
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Monsterland! I want to go there! Kaiju Roll Call!! #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

This Godzilla is the "friendly neighborhood" variety, I see, given how he's popping out and waving to the helicopter.

#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

I don’t care how sophisticated or realistic modern sfx is or ever becomes, nothing will thrill me more than the old, practical effects of this era of science fiction. #Monsterdon

Anguirus my beloved #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon the #Max version of #DestroyAllMonsters is dubbed - so I'm gonna be slow as hell when trying to keep up with the #LiveToots.

"And since they just saved us from the Triffids, we know they're legit!" #Monsterdon

What...what #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

"New forms of fish are being artificially evolved"
Pretty sure those were just dolphins, but okay. #monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

This opening theme is a banger #monsterdon

gotta front-load the credits so you can smash-cut the ending #monsterdon

Nice to start off with miniatures, but I also love a classy opening credits sequence. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

MONSTER LAND. WHAT COULD GO WRONG?! #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

HIM BIG TAIL SPLASH IN WATER
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Monsterland..Come for the monsters, stay for the great savings #Monsterdon

Rodan looks like Sam The Eagle if you don't pay too much attention to the color

#Monsterdon

Geez ... this movie will take place just two years after the events of Escape From New York ... that's like, forever from now ...
.
#Monsterdon
#DestroyAllMonsters

Mothra, known to hate the color red, just can't stand it. #Monsterdon

guess i'll watch both versions, on two screens, lol #monsterdon

"it's too red, i need to go away!" - mothra
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

The titles give off strong drive-in movie vibes

#Monsterdon

(whoops, just your regular reminder to mute me or #Monsterdon for the next couple hours if you don't want kaiju movie livetooting)

Gorosaurus??
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

I like the sparkly 3-D kanji #monsterdon

The credits are stylin', I"ll give 'em that! :D Very jaunty theme tune as well. #Monsterdon

GODZILLA VS IRREGULAR POLYGONS #Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe until the moon explodes, but that's a story for another anime. #Monsterdon

Honda? I love his cars! #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

So is this the Godzilla movie where everyone is a marionette? #Monsterdon

The year is 1999. #monsterdon

@Taweret I think they had a decent budget for this one. By kaiju standards anyway. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

*partying like it's 1999* #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

You can tell this isn't one of Elon's rockets because the launch pad didn't get destroyed.

#monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Man, people really thought 1999 was going to be a LOT more futuristic than it turned out to be. The collapse of the space race really kicked us in the jimmy didn't it. #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters

"Spacecraft leave for the moon on a daily schedule"

Twice on Sundays. #Monsterdon

neat rocket ship
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

@WhiskeySailor same, we're twinsies!

That rocket is dooooope. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

In the distant future of the 1990s...
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

Glitter titles not screwing around. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters

#Monsterdon
