heh heh heh, the machine said "ball in play"
There's 2 on tubi. Are we doing the 87 min one or the 110 min one? #monsterdon
all you had to do was promise not to do a Bride of Frankenstein thing, pendejo.
Devil Hands From Mars #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959
If this operation is a success maybe they can advance to removing Christopher Lee's failed mustache transplant #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959
"I came here for one single reason! To chew gum and to.... No, wait, that's two."
I bet I could do the operation!
to those who watched the director's cut of "End of the World"
We salute you π«‘ #monsterdon
mebbe you should... write down how to do the operation?
Ludwig: "I haven't been too well and it's affected my memory" if only there were some way I could cheat death #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959
@strangefour Ask your doctor if Zindar is right for you. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
yeah dude I'd totally rather hang with Ludvig than with naked Nancy Reagan upstairs....
"It could not be" I'm married to Death and I'd hate to cheat #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959
Oh Shit is that guy Blight? #Monsterdon2 #monsterdon
Hey, the director's cut is over now! I'm not sure what they cut out, but the version I watched certainly makes you yearn for the planetary explosion.
Thank you for hosting @Taweret, and sorry I opened the wrong version. Have a great week everyone!
This is going to be one of those times when the second feature is much better than the first, isn't it? #Monsterdon2 #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath
Uh-oh, George looked into the Ark of The Covenant #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959
@kshernandez that's usually how that deal goes π¬
Man Who Cheated Death appears to be a radio drama? It's all black screen, some Monty Python "AAAaaugh" and "(metal clinking)".
Is the camera on? Do they plan on having pictures in their moving picture?
OH Rue Morgue that seems familiar.
β¦ lot of nothing happening. Smoke a bit more.
@holly Or, as is the case with Hitchhikers Guide, the beginning of the book/movie.
You know, going to his planet doesn't sound so bad. Then again, the fact that he's destroying ours sort of belies the whole non-destructive angle.
Movie night on the Hail Mary:
Rocky: "Bad. Bad. Bad. No wonder creepy man blow up Earth."
Grace: "..."
i liked the old computers, anyway.
thanks @Taweret for hosting! and thanks to everyone participating for making that somewhat bearable, lots of great snark!
"I left the sketches in my other continent" #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959
@floatybirb @pineheap That would've been a wild ride. LOL
@brooke I did the miru steam this turn. I usually do Tubi but the commercials out me so far behind everyone else that my toots were out of sync #Monsterdon
From the trailer this one is nothing but Wilhelm screams
Anyway now that there's nunthing left of earth we may as well join this movie in being launched into space
Good job as always team, and thanks again to @Taweret for hosting!
Death: "Only that one time, and only because it was my first time playing Monopoly" #Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath1959
@ottaross ah, I missed that! At least that solves the mystery of why I was so badly out of sync. And I needed that mystery because the movie just was not holding my attention.
@pngwen @apLundell #monsterdon
same, I was watching the long Tubi version and all the comments were like 15 minutes ahead so I switched to miru.miyaku
Man, they must have spent the entire budget on this one car explosion. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon well i guess that's the large earth disruption
@huronbikes They got a deal on "night film" #justguessing #monsterdon
I think I figured it out: this is a cautionary tale about dealing with people addicted to crystal. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon ok so they got the emergency speed thing anyway
i have no idea why anything that's happened has happened in this movie
Man, they must have saved so much money shooting most of this movie at night #monsterdon
"Hey boss: who'd ya get to do sound for dis movie?"
"Some dude I met at a bar last night. Says his name is 'Sam' or some shit."
"We can't put that in the credits."
"Fine, call him Sam Shaw Enterprises. Whatever."
OK I'm gonna go workshop Better Version of This Movie in my head while doing the dishes and going for a late night walk. Back later.
Well, I got my docker app running, so there's that. Thanks End of the World 1977. You really restored my faith in old movies right at the end there. Cheers, y'all. Stay salty till next time.
And then they fucked off to AN ALIEN PLANET, leacing the entire rest of humanity to DIE for being like too gross or something!
So wow, that was... a movie. Damn. The 70s, amirite? Good night, #monsterdon, give thanks to @Taweret for hosting, and see y'all next week!
This movie could have been a 15-second special effect with nun of the filler
Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! Let us recover our mental faculties with... I don't even know what the double feature is but, like, pretty much anything else will do it
The End of the World 0/10 would not end the world again. the credits were exactly as exciting as the movie.
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
welp the whole earth exploded because of our diseases and that we'd just poison everyone else anyway.
Thanks @Taweret for hosting, @JoeWynne for trivia, @cherizilla for making sure we had access to bingo (even if hard mode mega card didn't resolve to any bingos at all), but most of all, thank you #Monsterdonians for making it fun (and for calculating the speed of light on request)
See ya next time!
Poochie's planet died on the way back to his home #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
if boom man means man making things go boom then he's the only person on this film who earned their paycheque
@klu9 Damn it's true. #Monsterdon
I think if like 4-5 more things had happened in this movie, it could've been very entertaining. I'm not saying it would've been good, but I definitely would've dozed off less.
Worst gender reveal ever.
#monsterdon
@klu9 ah for some reason i assumed the cloning happened a lot longer ago lol #monsterdon
why did none of those nuns smack them with rulers? that was so inappriopriate
#monsterdon #endoftheworld (as we know it)
That movie ate the ass out of a dead rhinoceros. It is still leagues better than our last film.
Thanks @Taweret and everyone else for destroying the Earth with nuns and velocity fields and crystals.
And there's a chunk of the earth flying by. A chunk with the water and the land still together...
@cd0 If thatβs what happens, I donβt think theyβd have a problem. They seemed to get along pretty well.
Complete gravitational disruption of a planet is a very wasteful way to destroy it....
Note the absence of words like "Starring" or "Featuring" before the names in these credits #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
ty for joining, everyone!!
Did. Did they hope for a sequel. Because that is not getting-a-sequel quality.
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
Turns out the Earth's mantle is made of glitter and the aliens blew us up for being too gay. #Monsterdon
The only good thing is this movie was prototype stargate command #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
10/10 earth explosion. No notes
#Monsterdon
#monsterdon YES WE DID IT
EARTH π EARTH π EARTH π EARTH π
@Taweret ope, there she goes #monsterdon
Marvin finally gets his clear view of Venus
And Carrie Fischer gives everyone a medal!! #monsterdon
Yep, the trailer spoiled it
Yeah, finally a movie that lives up to the title!
Glitter Planet Explosion! Finally!
#monsterdon
SO, the story is "idiot scientist helps aliens destroy the Earth?"
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
It's sooo noisy in space.
HA HA HA THE EARTH EXPLODED LIKE A CAKE WITH A GUY JUMPING OUT OF IT XD XD XD #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Be funny if it was all a McGuffinβ¦
Honestly if the world were falling to pieces and I, a naturally inquisitive scientist, was offered the opportunity to travel to another planet with the person who, apparently, is my cherished life partner, I would take it.
Whispering to date while watching The End of the World when The End of the World appears on screen: βThatβs The End of the World.β
Weβre sorry but the gateway can support only one person at a time.
........MULTIBALLLLLLL
Plot twist, this is just a prank the aliens are playing on them
#Monsterdon
#monsterdon how much generic disaster footage can we afford? Enough to pad out the end of the movie?
@davesdogmaggie
Take me to your leader.
Before leaving the last priest tells Andrew that he and Sylvia would make good citizens of their planet, because his talents are used for destruction on Earth (note: we never saw this) and his talents would be used to build on their planet.
Then a baking soda volcano goes off and Andrew and Sylvia decide to listlessly amble around the control room as the world dies on TV.
"Tell me it's not happening Andrew."
It's not, this is a movie. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon "As a Professor of signal interception I have a certain set of skills. Skills that make me very dangerous to people like you (bored security guards)"
That was a pretty crappy transportation special effect. Star Trek did that better ten years before this.
For some reason, all this disaster footage is just making me sleepier....
That globe spinning the wrong way is making me uncomfortable.
I mean, itβd be a no-brainer for me. Thereβs no need to βgo down with the ship.β It doesnβt seem these aliens are the ones who caused the destruction.
Did you folks want to evacuate Earth or #Monsterdon
That seems to have worked. We're back on to the volcano scene. Not sure how that's relevant.
We get a SINGLE 1 second shot of a bad alien mock up for the monster π½
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
"On our planet, we use them to build. Except when we're on YOUR planet, in which case, fuck yeah, we're blowing shit up."
Are his talents being used for destruction? He works at NASA, right?
(Though I swear I saw a sign that said Rocketdyne)
Professor, you might as well join them. Earth is being destroyed, and the gateway is right there in front of you.
#monsterdon Nun's playing geo tagging now?
that lava is from another movie as well...
@Newpa_Hasai thank you that's consistent with the dude's estimate!
