#monsterdon There's not enough Aquanet on this planet.
@floatybirb lol, oh they're in America then #Monsterdon
Aaaand Perilβ’ in five... Four... Three... #Monsterdon
EEEEEEEEEK AM STARTING LATE!
The dad, who is also Peter Cushing, then decides to show Ian his new invention, which is a literal Tardis, which is like a police themed phone box that is bigger on the inside than on the outside and also travels through time.
The smallest daughter helpfully explains that this is "science" and not magic. Then Ian's girlfriend, one of the older daughters wanders in and kisses him, knocking him over so that he knocks a level and teleports the Tardis to a swamp planet somewhere.
EX-TIME-ENATE!
That beehive is Marge Simpson-esque
"Come into my shed and smoke this weed...'Ian'....then you'll see some time travel"
"Anyone can understand science if they only put their minds to it!"
Yes, yes!
It might be hard for younger folk, and Americans especially, to understand how little prestige television had in 1960s Britainβdoing a film must have felt, for the writers and producer[s], like they were really moving up in the world, not like The Stage of course, but still.
I know Doctor Who openings are always a little weird, but this is just out of tune. #Monsterdon
AARU, isn't that the stereotypical Nixon noise from Futurama? #Monsterdon
oooo "Terry Nation"
Brit TV fans will know his legacy, he made Blakes 7 among other things
@strangefour #monsterdon #WrongDaleks
I believe large quantities of alcohol had something to do with it.
Though it would make a good #Monsterdon episode.
@diazona All British cinema can be traced back to the Asphyx. if you cross your eyes and ignore the facts.
#Monsterdon #TheFleshandTheFiends
Where is the soul? Can it be measured and dissected?
#Monsterdon #TheFleshandTheFiends
Big thanks to @Taweret for tonight's experience! We learned that some things are best left in black and white, so the money for colo(u)r can be spent on making a better things.
No smoking. No coffee. One non-human hand (foot?) (cephalopod limb?) protruding from under a shower curtain. Twinks from Planet X. Peter Cushing's contractual obligation? Far too much Dalek dialog ... but I'm beating a dead squid.
I can't say that I'm satisfied with this alternate timeline Doctor, but at least my vision processor has to regenerate depleted photochems for the next three hours, from all the oversaturated colors. 80% of the effects budget was just paint and color gels. #Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks
"The Academy of Dr Knox" sounds like the kinda place you go to learn how to do Real Estate.
Anyway, that's another movie launched into space, good job team, and thanks to @Taweret as always
@overholt and the woman Daleks wear less
@alicedotjpog the monsterdon movie tonight was an ancient dr who absolutely STOKED with critical lore elements
@Terencio oh no!
@funbreaker Yea. But it has nothing on last weeks "4D Man"
#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks1966 welp, that ended
There was no depth at all in the Dalek's security and it was their undoing.
Well that and being barely capable of even physically navigating
Right then. Back home we go. At some point in time.
THE END
Ironically the Doctor himself didn't even meaningfully contribute to the plot at all after building the TARDIS. The movie should've been called "Ian and the Fabulous Thals featuring The Daleks"
Anyways another #Monsterdon EX TER MIN ATE ED. Thanks @Taweret even Imitation Doctor is fun to watch!
Goodnight my sweet Daleks
#monsterdon
Thank god that's over.
Thanks @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for the bingo, @JoeWynne for trivia, @ryan for the stream, and everyone for suffering along every time they called Peter Cushing "Dr. Who."
Stay tuned for MORE CUSHING on https://miru.miyaku.media
MIRU . MIYAKU . MEDIA for the aftershow!!!!
okay, considering my first experience with Doctor Who was Tom Baker era, and that i have seen some truly awful DW, and that honestly i will watch the 1996 special at the drop of a hat, honestly that wasn't as bad as i thought it might be. silly? of course. made on like 2 british pounds and a length of rope? obviously. but actually bad? kinda not. maybe i'm too inured against bad Doctor Who.
It didn't work anyway #monsterdon
An AARU FING KIDDING ME PRODUCTION.
and they fucked off into the space-time continuum, good night!
I think I saw probably just about exactly the right amount of that movie
I had fun in spite of it all, but that was one of the more brutal slogs in recent memory.
#monsterdon
oh so this is where the doctor got the floor capes that he uses to kill the dalek in season 9
Thanks everyone for suffering through this - I have seen it too many times and feel nothing but disdain, but I hope you enjoyed it - the monster is the film itself!
Thanks @Taweret for hosting! #Monsterdon
oh, this is that comedy routine from the start again.
that's an ending.
let's collectively forget this one, #monsterdon
A planet of 50 foot tall Romans? They were clearly stepping over the Tardis.
Wait that ended mid sentence? Weird.
#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks
Now that you taught the Thals to fight you might want to lock the door of the TARDIS
Y'know, trust but verify
"I'm gonna sell mine on eBay!"
Take these shower curtains in remembrance of us!
IN RE-TRO-SPECT WE SHOULD NOT HAVE FAL-LEN FOR THE LOOK BE-HIND YOU TRICK
What did the Doctor actually do? Gets them in mortal danger by accident, then discovers mirrors for a useless distraction? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon bingo!!
ALL MY DALEKS, DEAD
Ian has FANGS
Daleks are clearly stupider even than Thals.
"Doctor, we are surrounded by film!" #monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks
Well, like last week's movie...that was coherent, competent and quite fun!
The Daleks main weaknesses: Walls and friendly fire. #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks
Calm down Ian....this is exactly what they say about over emotional men...
That's the ending?
Not even the Sea?
Do they ever get back
(Actually they do, for the sequel)
Dalek base: my decor goals for my home
TARDIS interior: my actual home
Okay rope sling into elevator shaft is 10 out of 10 the best way I've seen a Dalek destroyed in this movie so far π
#Monsterdon #DrWho #DrWhoAndTheDaleks1965
ICE creeps watching the Daleks and taking notes.
Actually in some parts of London he could get away wearing a cape like that, maybe even meet Jimi Hendrix
once again why is the TARDIS set so shit
It feels surreal that the Daleks' gas guns are so wildly destructive of them/electrical equipment, but only effective as stun weapons on humans/thals
Spray it, donβt just say it
Counting the mist-zap as 2+ deaths
Butlerian Jihad go!
lol, are they going to leave the planet completely dead? Have the Brits done it again?
oh it's the 'ol ventilation shaft trick!
@moira y'know a Dalek looks about the right size to hold a keg
why are we crouching while we run down the hallway? does the crouching help?
68 daleks of beer on the wall
68 daleks of beer
take one down
pass it around
67 dalek bottles of beer on the wall
Led Zepplin shot the cover to Houses of the Holy on this set.
It can count down from 100.. maybe it's smarter than ChatGPT after all.
While puny human group A is trying to destroy the pipes, the Doctor and most of the Thals are flashing mirrors at the Dalek city's ring cameras which confuses them and makes them mad, so they open the city mega-gate and tell everyone "do not move you are our prisoners!" and most of the Thals run away, so really this didn't seem like a great plan to me.
Missed #monsterdon but I did go see "Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie" and if you are Canadian or live in the Toronto area, seeing it is well worth your time.
NO! Switch places with Ian, THEN cut the rope!
@Taweret it's a good twist on a cliche, and offers free opportunity for escalation of stakes within a single sequence! fully endorsed
The world is a vampire
party peep is being dramatic
good job. drag the annoying colonialist along with you.
Why would you ever trust Ian to catch you?
fucking off into the chasm in 3... 2...
So the Daleks are vulnerable to bright blue lights. I'm not sure whether to laugh at them, or say "same"
just leave Whiney Thaal to die, he's given up....
@JoeWynne only 6% huh? I'm surprised, I thought that was one of the more likely options
Once we detonate the neutron bomb, we will celebrate with the neutron dance.
Neutron Dance https://share.google/d09iRAIgcFwaDfOsv
he's really starting to like this punching thing
climbing was only discovered in Britain in 1957 so that scene was actually really compelling at the time for most intra-national audiences
I'm not even sure what we're doing. the daleks probably explained it and I couldn't understand what they were saying
The cakes are the solution! wait what?
#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks
That matte painting looks like it came from a 80s metal album cover.
To be fair Barbara is carrying like two stone of beehive
These Daleks' dialogue is so off it's maddening. Like, "DETONATE" was right there, but no, you wrote "EXPLODE" >:( #monsterdon
He needed a slap though
We just have to climb this Tor book cover
I canβt help but laugh every time the Daleks speak. Itβs just so funny!
When the robot uprising happens, I wonβt be able to stop giggling.
