lol, the Thaals really are quite vain...

No houses, but makeup, plenty of time for that.

#Monsterdon

He needed a slap though

#Monsterdon

We just have to climb this Tor book cover

#Monsterdon

I can’t help but laugh every time the Daleks speak. It’s just so funny!

When the robot uprising happens, I won’t be able to stop giggling.

#monsterdon #DrWhoandTheDaleks

uh, who puts their face directly into a mist covered body of water? effing Ian does... 🫩

#Monsterdon

@faoluin #monsterdon

Maybe a bog witch will show up. They're usually a lot of fun...

I get the feeling this is going to turn into Logan's Run at any moment.

#Monsterdon

Swamp water is famously good for a bath.

#Monsterdon

No maria on that moon.

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

bingoooooo

#monsterdon #WeHaveDrWhoAtHome

"The swamp is full of mutations!"

The swamp is full of bubbling oatmeal.

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoDaleks1965

Now we’re into the “Lord of the Rings” extended map pointing sequence.

#DrWhoAndTheDaleks
#Monsterdon

Those two definitely killed and et the other three

#Monsterdon

that pizza delivery was a little over the top

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

"The bomb will explode in one hour?"
"What part of immediately do you not understand!?"

#Monsterdon

In the Tardis, the puny humans are like "fuck we forgot our mercury gadget, maybe the thals will help us find it.

Then the Daleks have another evil conference and are like "we duplicated the Thal drug but we can't use it. Let's just nuke the planet more so the thals die and we'll keep wandering around in our pepper pots forever." and they seem to think that's a good plan.

#monsterdon

"I'll stick me 'ead in this alien swamp, see what happens..."

#Monsterdon

Wait was it the dude who was RIGHT who got fire extinguishered. Man british authors are dicks. #monsterdon

"The swamp's full of mutations!"

Ableist!

#Monsterdon

@jonny Another example is they are designed in a variety of festive colors

#monsterdon

Dalek gets a bad trip off the Thal's dankest weed. This means war.
#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

lol, that swamp sounds mental

#Monsterdon

I need to start seeing if I can dig up DVDs for some of these through my library. The Tubi ads are killing me. It’s not the ads so much as how far behind the hashtag conversation I am falling.

#monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

that's the power of Thal!

#monsterdon

While the horns play their hornest music, a Thal wanders into the control room where the lego bricks of food are stacked up, then the Daleks kill him with their fire extinguishers, but the rest of the Thals run away, then thank the Doctor for warning them, so, um... huh.

#monsterdon

@jonny It is hilarious that you think that is the main indicator of Dalek implausibility.

#monsterdon

I like how the music decides to max out the dramatic horns while the camera just zooms around the Dalek computer room and shows you the cool map that looks cool but means nothing to the audience.

#monsterdon

Heartbreaking that all those Thals will never get to taste the Four Goops #monsterdon

WE-CAUGHT-JOHN-INMAN

#Monsterdon

@socketwench "If we forget that, then are we even Thaals?" #Monsterdon

How are the Daleks and the humans and the Thals even managing to communicate in this? Is there a universal translator in the Dalek shell? Do the Thals have a telepathic translation ability? Is the language on Dalek planet English, just by coincidence?

#monsterdon

oh wait nevermind Ian escaped offscreen. False alarm.

#monsterdon

we could've just had the thalls explain the plot but that would have meant giving the daleks less than 800 lines of dialogue so

#monsterdon

That's what you get for trusting fascists.

#Monsterdon

Ian is a houdini

#Monsterdon

@yatsu Susan is the only key member here #Monsterdon

YAAAAAAY THEY KILLED IAN

#monsterdon #WeHaveDrWhoAtHome

Elevator floor mismatch. Rumba fail! #Monsterdon

@aburka This film does make a pretty compelling case for Universal Design. #Monsterdon

"Leave me! There's no time to get this whole contraption in there!"

Or, uhm... you could just open it back up and climb back out... You know, it's the reverse of what you did when you climbed in and shut it?

#Monsterdon

Nobody answered suzie when she asked if it's dead.

THEY JUST MURDERED A DALEK YALL
#monsterdon sterdon

Look, I don’t want to nitpick but why does Ian sound Daleky inside the Dalek? #Monsterdon

wait, Dr. Who is grandfather to both Suzy and Barbara?!

#Monsterdon

Roy Castle sweating like an ex-prince there...

#Monsterdon

EVERYTHING IS FINE HERE. HOW ARE YOU? #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

Like an amazon delivery driver the drivers of the Darleks on set would often take a piss bottle...

#Monsterdon

Susan & Barbara are a dynamic duo!

#Monsterdon

Ziggy Sanddust?

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

#monsterdon We are gullible af. The blue eye shadow is also a mild sedative.

what's for lunch? handful of ****

#Monsterdon

Ok, now they're punching out individual syllables and not even whole words.

#Monsterdon

Thals are giving Barbarella vibes. Now I wish Barbarella was here.

#monsterdon #DrWhoandTheDaleks

I love that the Daleks are bumpercars

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon The daleks are bumper cars!

...you've been walking on live wires this whole time?

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

lol, that hand was covered in shit

#Monsterdon

We shall bring you to our lava lamp desk of letter writing.

#monsterdon

I hope the Daleks have a song at some point

#Monsterdon

Susan stole their pen!

#monsterdon #DrWhoandTheDaleks

I haven't felt this way since the Star Wars Holiday Special, for which the decision was made to have the majority of dialogue in un-subtitled Wookie

#Monsterdon

thinking Susan is Gen X so this makes a lot of sense

#Monsterdon

the sound is so strange in the copy I'm watching. kinda like an echo but only on some sound effects

wonder if it's a transcoding issue

#Monsterdon

Some vertical hold issues on those TVs. #Monsterdon

Susan runs through the swamp, being chased by a purple blob, so she hides in the Tardis. Then a gay elf walks in and introduces himself as Elador or Elrond or something.

The gay elf is like "sry i didn't mean to be scary i'm a 'Thal' I left use those drugs but forgot to give you the instruction sheet, so I'll do that now" and then he infodumps and says that the gay elves fought the daleks in the past.

#monsterdon

Those monsters! The Daleks are going to violate the pharmaceutical patents!

#Monsterdon

Suzie was again given drugs. I thought this was a family film. #monsterdon

DID-THAT-GOLD-GUY-GO-OFF-ON-HIS-SAPIEST-SHIT-AGAIN

#Monsterdon

I'm so glad they gave the daleks pages and pages of dialogue its not tedious at all

#monsterdon

@jsadow @yatsu

*Lots* of planets have an England

#Monsterdon

@steggy Nice!

#monsterdon

I would not trust "FOOD AND WA-TER" served to me in that tone...

#Monsterdon

It’s a glam rock guy!

#Monsterdon

@jonny she would fit perfectly within the Dalek Suit!
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks And Susan leaves on her own.

@mason I just realized when I was a kid I never wondered why robots spoke so slowly.

#monsterdon

Give the child more drugs, and tell them to hide them....yes...this is fine...

#Monsterdon

@ottaross this movie was a cash-in on the popularity of the show, and a remake of its second serial, which is the one everybody loved because of the Daleks
This is outside the continuity, and pretty weakly connected to it. #Monsterdon

Do they ever put a lock on the Tardis?

The Thaal looks like they could be out partying in 2026 tbh

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Little Susie, you're sterile now. So this foolishness will end with us.

Waiting for Techmoan to pop in and start explaining the Dalek stereo

#Monsterdon

Daleks, known for their fastidious embrace of OSHA standards.

#monsterdon #doctorWhoAndTheDaleks1966

A random Dalek appears you and gives you an infodump. Is this awesome?

#monsterdon

Oh geez. I remember the first movie was very clear on being colorful with the Daleks and all, but wow someone went nuts with this one — even throwing in technicolor wall decorations...

They really really wanted to scream "hey! At least this is in color!"

#Monsterdon

While arresting them, the Dalek's stole the Doctor's time machine gadget, then threw them in a closet with an eyestalk to spy on them.

Two of the Dalek's have an evil conference while spying and are like "yo we are daleks in this continuity we live in these pepper pots because of radiation. how are these puny humans we captured still alive? also they have a spaceship or something we should steal it."

#monsterdon

I guess they evolved the Doctor Who premise since this movie? The Doctor has grandkids?

So he's not a Timelord from Gallifrey in this version?

#Monsterdon

I'm just burnin' doin' the nuetronic dance

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Daleks are terrible at narrating audio books.

#monsterdon Ian is a giant pussy... Meee'row…

@ohiofi it gets the hose again #monsterdon #drwhoandthedaleks

https://mastodon.social/@ohiofi/116117566456703603

so these robots don't have robots?

#monsterdon

Give the Daleks more lines

#Monsterdon

Watch your hands Cushing!

#monsterdon

TBF these things are terrifying to children...

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Fiddling with controls you don't understand. Amusing.

#monsterdon 🎶 hey hey we're the daleks, and ppl say we dalek around

I do kind of appreciate the color scheme of Dalek City, it explains a lot of the rage and hostility.

OH SHIT IT'S THE MALL COP ROBOTS

#monsterdon

I'm kind of liking this bumbling exploratory sequence with the angry doors and nonsense rooms.

#monsterdon

All the cameras are ogling at the elder female, trying to determine if she's wearing bikini underwear

#monsterdon

The monster levels are low so far.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon It's a badonkadonk door.
