they're making that science fictiony creature noise #monsterdon
Gravity is lower OUTSIDE the capsule, because...of the...anti-gravity paste? Which should also be repelling the craft from the moon surface? Except that it... oh, never mind. π΅βπ«
Ah yes, a moon creature standing there ominously with a staff of some sort... lets approach it.
#Monsterdon
mmmm blue cheese rivers
#monsterdon
That matte scene wasnβt too bad except the dark border. What is up with that? #Monsterdon
@Taweret of course there is air down there the moon is a big balloon with a little crust on it kinda like this piΓ±atas we made in Art class when we were like 7 years old #Monsterdon
First non-human character! Actor inside is thinking "hurry up and get the shot, I'm dying in here"
Elbows up!
I'm starting to hope the old guy gets killed. I guess it was inevitable
"I don't know, but it has a hockey stick"
Eat them! #Monsterdon
So the moon if filled with tiny bad dressed ant people
#monsterdon
"Hi, moon creatures. We come... in peace?"
@steggy It's only a model.
#monsterdon
I'm starting to get a this isn't a cave we flew up a huge alien ass vibe.
@ranjit You joke, but I'd watch a movie featuring a bunch of alchemists turning lead into gold and somehow also making rockets.
Oh noes! Not first?
Finally a monster! #Monsterdon
@helianthropy nope. They have bare hands coming out of their "air-tight" space suits. #Monsterdon
Selunites! #Monsterdon
SELENITES EVERYWHERE NOOOO
they dug too greedily and too deep
you know what shades of blue they discovered
Love it when we get a caption that just says "(SQUELCHING)".
Dang that helmet rolled a long way.
I'm mostly concerned about their hands getting frostbite.
@jonny@neuromatch.social She's got chickens to keep her company.
#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon
This was clearly made before people understood how space works XD
#Monsterdon Cat women living under the moon? Preposterous.
why are they trying to be sneaky this dude has zero volume control the whole moon already knows you're both there
@jadebees It was not
look you seem to be fine without gloves, just hold your breath and run, you'll make it back to the capsule no problem
Oh cool! A big old pegmatite cave!
Forbidden Planet vibes
Moon Crystals! The music tells us this is exotic.
Mother Horta incoming?
@ricci It appears to be inflamed #monsterdon
For it's day, these are pretty sophisticated special effects. Shame they were wasted on such a silly plot. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon π¨βπ π¨βπ π©βπ π ππ·οΈ π·οΈ π±
the crackpot isn't la la laing anymore, I guess things got serious
For the time, the effects don't suck.
I'm shocked. This is Monsterdon, isn't it?
It sure is lucky that every movie about the moon finds out there's actually an atmosphere/subterranean air/ cave oxygen, isn't it
This is unrealistic. No graffiti.
ooooooooh dear
that's not horta
that's that thing from Dragon's Domain
WE HAVE OUR MONSTER
@Zerofactorial and it is gaseous
ROCKCLIMBING!!
Why must we always bee cursed with long scenes of rockclimbing?
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon
Remeber that Indiana farmboy who was fingered by fate? Whatever happened to him?
oooo is that the cheddar cheese core of the moon?
They forgot they only weigh 1/6th their normal weight
If only it was, like, 1/6th gravity on the moon while they climb down, eh? eh?
they have discovered the rectum of the moon #monsterdon
Why not just use the stairs to your left instead of rappelling down?
#Monsterdon "subterranean atmosphere" how convenient it's not all venting out through the hole you punched in the ceiling
ooooh it's not mysterons, it's horta
@jonny I guess now why know why it's just the first men
Well, we already knew (patriarchy), but now we Know
#Monsterdon π¨βπ π¨βπ π©βπ π ππ·οΈ π·οΈ π±
I guess the moon is basically room temp so that's nice
This is the first Monsterdon movie where I've actually been happy to see we have 43 minutes left
@Taweret@timeloop.cafe Gloves weren't invented until the Edwardian period.
#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon
At long long last, we're IN the moon. #Monsterdon #TheFirstMenInTheMoon
Oooh. A subterranean atmosphere. That's a thing.
Our hero meets the Moon Men and tries to sell the cottage to THEM, too. #Monsterdon
@Taweret One hour in THIS A HAPPENING!
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon
@Taweret I'm sure it's fine, hands don't need to breathe.
@amyfou they have to touch helmets. Giggity. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon π¨βπ π¨βπ π©βπ π ππ·οΈ π·οΈ π±
ruh roh
We can has monsters now?
That's not how you unstick a man, I've read the literature #Monsterdon
Bare hands on the moon.
Sure, why not?
~43 minutes left of the movie, and I'm rooting for death of everyone but the chickens. #Monsterdon
here we go. now we're in the moon. and i can go ahead and forget 100% of the entire first hour of the movie because it is now completely irrelevant #monsterdon
HELLO MOON
the moon is made of bubble wrap!
"Take a letter like a good girl, Kate."
He's gone, just let him go. Just let him go, it's better this way. #Monsterdon
They just fell through some poor lunarian's sun roof... I hope they are insured.
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon
Reminds me of that Bond movie with the hollow volcano....
Moon's haunted.
do they not have gloves?
They're going to cram her in there with the chickens?
We're in the mooooooooooonnnnnn!
Uhoh they fell into the Lunar Sphincter #Monsterdon
We have a hatch!
Katy Perry was more dignified after her space flight than this guy #Monsterdon
I rewound because I didn't catch how Cavor corrected course, and now the video is looping with the ship heading towards the Sun.
@amyfou Similar to the way I can hear their footsteps. #Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon
Kate: #monsterdon
"Cavor! Cavor! They have bestagons here!"
what
#monsterdon
I think I heard a Moonquake!
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon
I like how the new moon capsule from 196x landed feet away from where the 1899 capsule did.
The Moon of Incredible Coincidence
I guess "First Stooges in the Moon" would have given away too much of the plot in the title. #monsterdon
Sure hop the moon people follow Hawai'i example with Cap Cook
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon π¨βπ π¨βπ π©βπ π ππ·οΈ π·οΈ π±
how do they hear each other talk from diving suit to diving suit tho
Flight time for 250k miles was how long?
So shouldn't we be touching helmets to hear all this?
I can't decide if this movie thinks sound travels through space or not
i mean it may look like people are joking about the colonialism part but they literally claimed the moon for queen victoria #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon π΅ i claim the moon and the moon claims me π΅
