#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

"You've no right to do this. It doesn't belong to you," said the Englishman.

#Monsterdon

Ah, I see they have a film library in Liquid Kingavision.

#monsterdon

Planet of the Jawas!

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

She’s giving their LLMs a bunch of data #Monsterdon

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

They're generating their power by shining sunlight on one of my Christmas ornaments. #Monsterdon

see, the moon guys are using solar power, they're better than you two bumbling fools. #monsterdon

Perpetual motion? That's just spiky vaseline #monsterdon

Okay the glowing starry crystal thing is cool

#Monsterdon

wait holy shit it actually is a sphere
#monsterdon

I want one of those big juicy crystals

#Monsterdon

Selenites have tools that fir Imperial nuts and bolts!

#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

They're getting their power from kanpeito!

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Perpetual motion is a lot easier with an outside energy source, yes

#Monsterdon

Observes thing for 2 seconds:

🦋 is this perpetual motion?

#Monsterdon

That's cool go roundy thing!

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

@neia ooze, the great and powerful

so this is where you got off to in your hot air balloon

i should've known, you old fraud

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

These mushrooms!! And the caterpillar! "A harmless vegetarian."

And more of these decorative, totally natural stalagmite crystals.

This is a pretty angry vegetarian.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Of course it's a caterpillar skeleton. This *is* a Harryhausen flick.

Yes the logical second thing to teach an alien who has no concept of human linguistic structure is "hundreds of thousands of miles away" 🤦

#Monsterdon

This is a cool movie but nobody but us ever got this far :)

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Dr. Caldor, how do you know that wasn’t their carbon dioxide scrubbers?

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

The secret Moon-tain Dew production facilities...

#monsterdon

Their bong technology is SUPER advanced. #monsterdon

mmmm fancy cheese core
#monsterdon

The sets have been absolutely capital the entire time

#monsterdon

@bunnyhero This is the kind of bullshit you usually only see in Halloween decor.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

sure

obviously

...

why

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

See, you know it's science if you have colourful liquids bubbling. But these aliens have more ADVANCED science because their containers are so much bigger than ours.
#monsterdon

Why Kate is suddenly all cozy with Caractacus is more than I can understand. He’s been legitimately awful to her until just five seconds ago #Monsterdon

The moon caterpillar is a nice touch. I didn't see that coming. #Monsterdon #firstmeninthemoon

@moira@mastodon.murkworks.net or possibly the Great and Powerful Ooze?

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#Monsterdon

I'm sure the big caterpillar only eats people who eat sardines.

#monsterdon Exoskeleton AND endoskeleton?

Wow, Moon life is advanced!

Please let there be moomaids in the moon aquarium

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

I can't wait to see the remake of this film with The Rock

#Monsterdon

It's a caterpillar skeleton!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

More fizzy lifting drink. A whole cave of it. #Monsterdon #TheFirstMenInTheMoon

#monsterdon

"This is our version of the Krell machines. Hope you like them."

#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

"...And here you see our Mtn Dew storage facilities..." #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 🌔🕷️ 🕷️ 😱

moon caterpillar skeleton is kinda sad. Poor moon caterpillar didn't deserve that.

(also, why does a caterpillar have a skeleton?)

Oxygen generators, okay.

#monsterdon

space caterpillars have exoskeletons AND endoskeletons #monsterdon

Even an herbivore will defend itself!

#Monsterdon

"It's absolutely imperial"... is a good? #Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

Going to start saying "absolutely imperial!"

actually no I'm not

#Monsterdon

moon piranhas are the best piranhas

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Who could have imagined the aliens would have recording devices

#Monsterdon

Hundreds of Beavers flashback!

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Must be an oxygen rich atmosphere with bugs that big around... careful your clothes don't catch fire!

#Monsterdon

Huh. Moon piranhas. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon also plus that the caterpillar has an endoskeleton

WAIT THAT BUG WAS A VERTEBRATE!?

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#DubNation I'm missing #Monsterdon for this, make it worth it!

#Monsterdon that was a fast skeletonization

they turned that cavern into a spirit halloween so fast it's still april

#Monsterdon

Wow, the piranhas of the moon

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

See? Caterpillars don't have exoskeletons. You were wrong this whole time

#Monsterdon

That's not an elephant gun, by the way. Nice old fowling piece, though

#monsterdon

caterpillar ... skeleton? #monsterdon

The bug was a vertabrate.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

Moon bugs know how to BBQ and *fast*.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

"It's absolutely Imperial!"

#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

aww poor space caterpillar, getting electrocuted for no good reason

#Monsterdon

@Taweret Maybe the best advice to newcomers is to advise them to start watching halfway through #monsterdon

"Boy. Girl. Yayti. Moon." #monsterdon

Alien: "When do they mate?"

#Monsterdon

maybe if you speak slowly and loudly enough. #monsterdon

"I wish they'd stay off the words with 'e's in them."

PAGING OULIPO.SOCIAL

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

I hope Kate ends up with one of the selenites #monsterdon

#Monsterdon

We get to see Kate without clothes! Of course, it's just bones ....

Selenites got more high tech stuff!

#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

I want one of these guys to be crushed in the door like the cyclops in Krull, which was a much better movie

#monsterdon

Space Mothra's gonna highly displeased #monsterdon
