OK I'm legitimately curious in looking up the backstory for this, because the other copy i was looking at on archive.org has a comment that says the european version is "badly written," and this version is reconstructed from an AIP version????? #monsterdon
When I watch Toho films, I always like to imagine Ultraman sitting in his underwear eating chips, relieved that he has nothing to do with the franchise and therefore has no obligation to do anything about the ongoing kaiju disaster ... Great show tonight folks!

This was so much fun, thanks all!
OK whew that was a lot to take in
Dear neuromatchstodon and the rest of fedi that this reaches - you are about to come across a patch of timeline where there will be a lot of chatter that only makes sense if you read it in reverse while in a dream.
to clean up your timeline, please add a filter for "#monsterdon" by going to preferences > filters and selecting 'remove from public timelines' at least :) sorry it is a flood, it's a byproduct of some weird ux compromises.
I'm beginning to fear this movie will not deliver on the Destroy All Monsters promise with so many of them roaming about #monsterdon
Awesome show tonight folks! Here's one last shot of tonight's new art! Thanks for the fun and banter during an awesome kaiju film, and hope to draw some more art next time!

Close, but no bingo for me. Maybe next time! #Monsterdon
but FINE fine miniature work, the goofiest yellow space suits i've seen in quite some time, and the saddest, most humiliating beat down gidorah has ever received (i hope), so i guess it still gets a thumbs up from me. (^_^)-b #monsterdon
@moira they had fucked off into the sea, but to stage the shot the sea had to be on land because they could not wave goodbye if they were swimming. it is obvious. #monsterdon
THE END
Tonight on #Monsterdon we learned...uh...
I have no idea.
But MONSTERS! And ALIENS! and FIRE! and EXPLOSIONS!
Thanks for the delightfully pointless watch party event @Taweret !
I don’t even care that nothing made sense, all the model work was beautiful and now I want a toy or model kit of that spaceship. Goodnight, #Monsterdon !
THATS THE END!?
10/10
I am standing up and applauding.
they don't make em any better than that folks that is a testament to the ages. I am in awe.
#monsterdon
@brion your Kilaaks were so concerned with whether they could... they never stopped to think whether they should
there was like…one monster destroyed.
oh well.
thanks @Taweret for hosting another excellent #Monsterdon! 🐲 🐲 🐲
It's always nice to see Barugon, the Kaiju puppy. #Monsterdon
And we fuck off to an island in the sea #monsterdon
"and then they were all just friends now. the end. :3"
someone's 6 year old kid wrote this ending
I wish Nancy Archer from Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, and Glenn Manning from War of the Colossal Beast were a part of this Kaiju Royal Rumble!

@whknott The concept of a resolution is not really known in the world of #Monsterdon
Chekhov's Moon base rocket shuttle
Phoenix trynna crossover with a fuck you to copyright laws
@neia Not obvious plumbing is not obvious
i guess this place is a shelter now??
what happened to the yellow smoke hazards
Mothra and Spider are providing confetti! How festive.
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
mothra: 💦
spider: 💦
Baby Godzilla cheering, like, "Yay! Get 'em Dad!" And then he shoot a breath ring to help.
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
... and Godzilla mounts Ghidorah from the rear!
So... the aliens got the kaiju fighting each other so that they would destroy some woods in the middle of nowhere?
@yougenius haha i don't know what he smells like but here he is #Monsterdon
Godzilla is always so happy to fight or stomp something he does a little dance first. #Monsterdon
why is ghidorah here? how did? why? what's happening?
@Taweret 🤣 Oh yeah! Ole Whats-his-name! He's back!

The Kilaaks bring in a ringer, Vegas drops the spread to 1.5 #Monsterdon
LOL introducing King Ghidorah at the very end of the movie is bold
The kaiju sports announcer shtick is killing me
…why do we have a sports play by play guy lol #monsterdon
BARAGON! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!? #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
@socketwench
🤣 They really do look like tiny oven potatoes 🤣 #Monsterdon
glad to see the SDF is set up for giant-monster badminton
Me: finally Godzilla!!
Toho: LMAO, no!!
oh godzilla! we forgot about him! for a weirdly long time
@Taweret we brought our best angle grinders so we could steal even the alien technology that’s bolted down #monsterdon
WHAT ARE THEY DOING #monsterdon
the jaunty music ONLY plays when the laser is going, i think maybe it's part of the laser #Monsterdon
Oh hell yea, taking one of the masers off the ground car. I do love that the way you do that is by just running a grinder over the outside.
@Taweret NO. IDEA.
so we went to the moon and stole the aliens glitter rock and that will stop the kaiju? is that what's happening?
Dude. The aliens are totally stoned. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
Wait is that The Stuff (slightly fried) in the remnants of the base
I feel like they didn't so much write a script for this movie as assemble it out of leftover Fridge Poetry magnets. All the dialogue is "Look" and "On" and "There!" and "Stop!" #Monsterdon
You scared the little moon critters, now they’re hiding! #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
the moonmobile looks like one of those early snowmobiles #Monsterdon
quick, to the adorable little tank! #monsterdon
And that’s a wrap! Here’s my new Kilaak Queen art in celebration of this Monsterdon presentation of Destroy All Monsters! Thanks for watching it shape-up, and hope to do more live-draws during future Monsterdon screenings!

Can't someone find me a goddamn label maker for this lunar space ship!? #monsterdon
bros please fly the ship out of the fire tunnel #monsterdon
omg i love the toy moonmobile
We landed in the aliens gas grill. #Monsterdon
Stepping on a tank has got to be as unpleasant as stepping on a gnarly Lego piece #monsterdon
ROUND CAR READY!
SQUARE CAR STILL IN BETA!
TRIANGLE CAR STILL IN DEVELOPMENT AND DESTROYING TESLA!
Oh, they landed in the broiler. #Monsterdon
I mean, I have not seen anything like that since Tintin went to the moon. A tank! Sofa king cool.
Mmmmm, rotisserie rocket is my favourite snack #monsterdon
"Be sure and watch out for UFOs" doesn't quite have the punch of "KEEP WATCHING THE SKIES" does it? #Monsterdon
i love the cheesy moon set. i love it so much
Disappointed more machines aren't bright green with blue highlights.
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
Hell yea, show us the computing equipment. Gorgeous keyboard, and I'm never unhappy to see reel-to-reel shots or a panel of blinkenlights.
The guy with the green helmet with the green visor is a military bookkeeper. #Monsterdon
They're getting a dressing down from Mother Superior. Godzilla's gonna rap their knuckles with a ruler. #Monsterdon
Bridal party outfits were wild in 1999 #monsterdon #destroyallmonsters
...Yeah, those UFOs are pie tins. #Monsterdon
The silver lame aliens #Monsterdon
This is the part where the villain invites Bond into his secret fortress for dinner and starts monologuing
Oh wait wrong franchise
@msh @Taweret i am too distracted by the timeline, y'all are cracking me up 😹 #monsterdon
Watch out in those caves, an Octaman has been seen in these parts.
So they're taking down the big corporations and the military industrial complex? #TeamKaiju
@Taweret I kinda know what's happening but I have no idea at all *why* #Monsterdon
godzilla: "hey, you guys are hiking too! can i join you?... hey why are you all running away?" #monsterdon
okay godzilla chasing the army through the woods is something new
i honestly have no idea what's going on tho
Yay! Tank stomping!
TFW godzilla's in your landing zone #monsterdon
so the brown helmets: Honda or Kawasaki?
Trying to pay attention to a dubbed movie, the #Monsterdon posts, and my family group text (who are currently debating the ethical & practical use of #AI in #ASL #interpreting 🤯).

The model work in this one is just so, so good. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
@annathepiper The future is full of possibilities!!!
WAIT WAIT WAIT "go underground with your SPACE SHIP?" Pretty sure it's not built to do that...? #Monsterdon
military scoring some direct hits on some buildings #monsterdon
These laser guns have practically stormtrooper levels of accuracy
Destroy All Trivia
All Toho monsters were supposed to appear in this Grande Finale, but several could not appear because the costumes were too damaged from Ultra Man.
i say wrapping around the monorail counts as hugging
mothra says your subway is sub par. #Monsterdon
"yes, he is a very big threat, [names a bunch of cities to make the threat sound important]"
this writing is awesome
#Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
music to launch missles uselessly to
Manda please go back to the sea, you are so awkward on land. #Monsterdon #DestroyAllMonsters
Where is Monster Island in relation to Infant Island? #monsterdon
love curling up around the monorail
