My memory is fuzzy since the last time I rewatched the first two doctors in the original series was some years ago (never did like the first two. The third was kind of ok though) but I'm pretty sure they did indeed successfully take the story from the actual TV show itself and convert it into a really crappy movie.

At least the previous movie was, as far as I know, actually an original story? Or at least it did better with what it had if not!

I don't even think this one was meant to be original. I think they really meant to just rehash the story from the series, but with a different Doctor and in color but crappier effects (somehow!)

#Monsterdon

And Ian loses his competence, thereby returning the universe to its proper order.

#Monsterdon #DoctorWho1965

Ian is thinking this is the last Bumble date he's going on #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDalek

Got any lambas bread? or magic rope? maybe a sword that detects Orcs? No? #Monsterdon #DrWhoandtheDaleks1965

push the button, frank

#monsterdon #WeHaveDrWhoAtHome

I appreciate how Barbara wrangles dem Dalek eye stalks

// nice capes from the party peeps

#Monsterdon

Doctor Who keeps slippers in the TARDIS

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoDaleks1965

now that The Doctor's got his good comfy slippers, go home!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Not our clarinets and slide-whistles!!!!

That was silly. Also, am I supposed to feel slightly bad for the Daleks?

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

Jesus Christ thank God it's over

#Monsterdon

oo, fashionable cloaks! thank you VERY kindly.

#monsterdon

If someone asked me what this film was about, I would not be able to say. Thanks, friends. :) #Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks 👽🎥🍿

That was a quick wrap up #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDalek

I feel like watching him beat them up is like sending in your hero units to beat up a bunch of starcraft SCVs...
#Monsterdon #DrWho #DrWhoAndTheDaleks1965

This is definitely that game where you have to kill all the Daleks by tricking them into running into each other, or sonic screwdrivering a 1 space radius from yourself. #Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

it's great how the 50th anniversary special ended with the same trick

#Monsterdon

Ah, I see people who watched the shortened Internet Archive version are finishing now

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

Ian finally putting his slapstick skills to good use

#Monsterdon

We want you to take these, to remember us. They are from a place you have never heard of.... Lidl.

#monsterdon

Ok, that was somehow worse than I expected #monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

When in Rome?

#Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

i am fearing for the wellbeing of those lava lamps.

#monsterdon

That poor set. Someone worked really hard on that. #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

#monsterdon for all the people who mentioned Austin Powers I think this might have inspired the "steamroller" scene:

at last the fracas we were promised in the trailer! oh it's over

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon that little freak out at the end was unnecessary

Ok, Ian. Fall on the console and stop the countdown.

#Monsterdon

Let's hide behind the lava lamps for safety! #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDalek

ahhh, _there's_ a plunger

#monsterdon #WeHaveDrWhoAtHome

This movie would have had just as much life to it if it was an email!

#monsterdon

Plot twist: the capes are radioactive #monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

Damn, foiled on a flat floor

#Monsterdon

Oh. They figured out lassos already. Huh. #Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks

I'm beginning to think Daleks invented Zoom.

#Monsterdon

"STAY WHERE YOU ARE!"

"No, thanks!"

"YOU CAN NOT GET AWAY"

"Yes I can, clearly."

#Monsterdon #DoctorWho1965

Well, this maybe is an insult to all th whovians, but Dr Who is really much better nowadays

#monsterdon
#drwhoandthedaleks

i'm gonna admit a near-total ignorance of the lore on this one, but you'd think a species that rolls around 100% of the time would go for higher clearance and faster rolling action.

#monsterdon

The slowest moving elevator ever. I thought for a moment it was standing still, waiting for the Dalek
#monsterdon

Actually in some parts of London he could get away wearing a cape like that, maybe even meet Jimi Hendrix

#Monsterdon

@Taweret

For the booty.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I wonder what actual Romulans are doing right now

@akamran Ian has had like 2 clever moments in this film.

#Monsterdon

I bet it would take Rambo like 5 minutes to wipe out the robot city.

#monsterdon

why do you have buttons on a dalek spaceship anyway?
WE WILL EXPLAIN LATER!

#monsterdon

Their eyestalks are flaccid.

#Monsterdon

another dramatic dumbwaiter escape

#Monsterdon

Oh good, there are still people alive on this planet then, an improvement on the Moon...

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon that was pretty clever of Ian

#monsterdon

BEGIN THE COUNT DOWN

OKAY

...

NOW?

BEGIN NOW

OKAY

...

SEVEN THOUSAND THIRTY

SEVEN THOUSAND TWENTY-NINE

@arrjay I know right

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

@Lazarou

I believe they prefer to be called "mobility scooter patriots"

#Monsterdon

Doctor why are you behind the little girl.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

67.. 67.5.. 67.235..

Well they outmatched those two darleks pretty easily....

#MOnsterdon

I'm guessing at least half the budget went into that fully working fake elevator #monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

@srol they must be sad they are grey when their world is so colorful.

#monsterdon

"Fools! We can take them by surprise!"

But they keep saying their plans in a slow out loud voice they are the most unsurprising beings in the universe.

#Monsterdon

See the Thals are actually an allegory of the Tories.

I don't know who Tories are, I just thought that sounded clever.
#monsterdon

Using the crystals to mess with their defences, it's like how protestors in Taiwan shone laser pointers at cops which nobody should study for other potential application

#Monsterdon

“No, Antodus! No!”

“It’s okay. I'm only 3 feet above the ground.”

#Monsterdon

they really didn't properly think out this rope thing

#monsterdon

“Short wave light radiations” make some awesome reflection effects #Monsterdon

Wait what why

#Monsterdon

oh nevermind, he didn't even die.

#monsterdon

frank!

#WrongMovie #monsterdon

I see how the Daleks got themselves in to this bind, w/ their profligate energy use for dramatic revelations #Monsterdon

So many grey men have died lol

#monsterdon

ah yes have more than one dalek speak at once. that makes them more understandable

#monsterdon

“Fool of a Took! This is a serious journey, not a hobbit walking-party. Throw yourself in next time, and then you will be no further nuisance.” #monsterdon

Never tie off to Ian.

#Monsterdon

Ravers flashing their phones. #Monsterdon

I love everyone over-analyzing Dr. Who. The budget for sets was $-1. One episode is filmed in a warehouse that has room dividers made of bed sheets or gauze they probably swiped from clothes lines around London.

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

#Monsterdon🌌⏳🛸👨‍⚕️⁉️🤖🏯😱

wut

#monsterdon

"i want to go home"

"no, i want to expose the children to nuclear war"

okay having the dalek count down from 100 is funny

I loled

#monsterdon

Just let this guy stay behind. He's clearly going through some things right now

#monsterdon

catching ropes on my bare chest #monsterdon

See you always want your water SUPPLY pipes to run straight UPhill at a treacherous angle along a precipitous drop.

Great water SUPPLY
#monsterdon

I feel like the more likely outcome of that would be that they both fall into the canyon

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

@floatybirb They can't do any of that because the Daleks have surrounded them with electronics.

#monsterdon

that knot looks loose

#Monsterdon

daleks hate cellphone lights

#monsterdon

It's One Punch Thal to the rescue! #Monsterdon

I find it sort of funny that the Daleks haven't actually shot anyone yet. At least not that I saw. (They froze someone for some reason, but no death ray.) Or maybe I blinked and missed it?

#Monsterdon

Throw some gravel out there, it's just a leap of faith, Indiana knew this part. #Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

@ohiofi something please #monsterdon #drwhoandthedaleks

https://mastodon.social/@ohiofi/116117738223099456

For a fab boy he’s very punchy.

#Monsterdon

strong eye makeup game, tho

#monsterdon

That rockfall must have been a bricklayer in a previous life

#Monsterdon #DrWhoAndTheDaleks

The Dr undid a lifetime of pacifism for this whole culture. That's definitely a violation of the prime directive. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

I can't wait to see them climb down.

it kinda looks like they're holding up smart phones

#Monsterdon

Wow a composite shot that wasn't strictly needed for the plot. Fun #monsterdon

“I have no memory of this place” #monsterdon

Looks like she's holding a giant doobie! #Monsterdon #DoctorWhoAndTheDaleks 👽🎥🍿

@JoeWynne I think Cushing could have been a good Doctor. The problem with this is the character, story, and lore are all wrong.

#Monsterdon

Man, they're really avoiding Exterminate like the plague!
