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 don't like the mustache. But it's not bad. His haircut feels more off. It's too stern and slick. But that fit is killer. Really shows off his figure.
#Monsterdon #TheManWhoCouldCheatDeath
"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.
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
Cool idea poorly implemented.
#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.
@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¦
COMMENCE PRIMARY IGNITION
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.
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.
Pretty obvious choice to be honest
I don't think integrity is noticeable in disaster footage
"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
This movie likes its volcanoes
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."
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?
@Newpa_Hasai thank you that's consistent with the dude's estimate!
#Monsterdon πβͺοΈπ°ββοΈποΈπ π½οΈπ π±
"On Earth, your talents are used for destruction."
Which is why we're destroying you. #Monsterdon
Why isnβt stock footage on my bingo board tonight? #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
Edit to fix isnβt
Ah the classic explosive tsunami
Oh hey things happen #monsterdon
And now here's some footage from films that had a budget. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
anyway welcome to the Natural Disasters Stock Footage Festival
New Nun-B-Gone, leaves behind nothing but the fresh scent of pine! #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
Godzilla is coming ashore! #Monsterdon
beam the nuns up, Scotty!
#monsterdon
#endoftheworld1977
@CactuarJoe
I have expected this since Catholic elementary school.
This is what happens when aliens only watch FOX news. #Monsterdon
radio transmissions are space diseases? πΌ
#Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld1977
Earth is emitting diseases and contaminating the universe
Through space
"They're contaminating the universe" Okay, that kind of tracks. #Monsterdon #EndOfTheWorld
Ruh roh! Network troubles! Remember everything until we get the feed back.
