What happened?
Idk, the dial hit red. That's usually a bad thing, right?
#monsterdon

And this folks is why you do not operate smelting furnaces in your house.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

This movie is more comic relief than actual story.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

If he's gonna spend the whole film shouting like that I'm gonna take my headphones off. #Monsterdon

Gibbs needs to join a union #Monsterdon

Is there a plot? I am struggling with grasping one.
#Monsterdon

@trixter Atleast we haven't misidentified any animals... yet.
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

If this guy had access to carbon fiber... #monsterdon

Anyone calling a goose "quite harmless" has never tangled with a goose!

#Monsterdon

Okay, that antigravity explosion was some legit model work.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 🌔🕷️ 🕷️ 😱

I too want interiors of padded velvet with silken ropes

This Cavorite works by being so dense as to be absolutely ungovernable #monsterdon

@_L1vY_ EXACTLY!

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

More comfortable than a futon! #monsterdon

Now THAT'S how you build the interior of a space craft. #Monsterdon #TheFirstMenInTheMoon

The Sphere? Michael Creighton won't write that for DECADES

#Monsterdon

I miss the days when a mad scientist could do nuclear experiments at his cottage and everyone just laughed it off. #Monsterdon #firstmeninthemoon

#Monsterdon ok if this sphere were a myst puzzle i'd spend a few hours on it

A-HAW-HAW #Monsterdon

It looks bigger on the inside...

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#Monsterdon

so... that's not a sphere

unless I failed geometry or something

It's all really quite exciting isn't it? Huh HAW!

...

Not really no sorry #Monsterdon

bigger on the inside!

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 🌔🕷️ 🕷️ 😱

furnace fx

this is what happens when you don't pay your workers properly. #monsterdon

THE MANOR HOUSE IS BEING KRULLED INTO SPACE!
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

This science is dubious even by Monsterdon standards.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#monsterdon This mad scientist is amazing.

Life goals right here.

"How quickly will we have to be rotating?" "Oh, we'll be well short of the forces needed for toothpasting, I assure you."

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Aaaaaaaaaand boom. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon wait how does blocking the cavorite paint with a regular metal stop gravity from being absorbed/reflected/whatever by the cavorite? gravity goes through blinds

omg, they broke into some geese home!? #monsterdon

@LingLass Real Estate Cinematic Universe

#Monsterdon

Mad scientist has attack geese guarding his Cavorite dodecahedron. Names them after Greek philosophers.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

@forestine I was thinking, if the paste actually blocks gravity rather than opposing gravity, they would stop working as soon as you stop being upright

#Monsterdon

@ricci Right?! A major shared plot point. #Monsterdon

Here it is, covered in goose poop.

#monsterdon

Open and close the blinds to repel gravity... Sure. Whatever. Very scientific.
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

#monsterdon Yes!

Amazing.

Including gold? For making boots? #Monsterdon #firstmeninthemoon

i, for one, am glad for all this dithering. it's given me time to get home lol #monsterdon

It's a beautiful day in a very slow movie and you're a terrible goose. #Monsterdon #TheFirstMenInTheMoon

"They're quite harmless" he says as it looked like it was about to jump at them
#Monsterdon

Shit's on fire, but I reckon we should head to the pub, guv'nor.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon The theory that the moon is made of metal-studded fruitcake is intriguing. I hope those blokes dashing off to the pub don't ruin the work.

Ruining things should be done by a horrible goose, no?

This feels Wellsian. Need just a bit of info on how they plan on having enough air.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

I BUILT THIS SHIP... IN FRIENDSHIP...

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 🌔🕷️ 🕷️ 😱

THESE GEESE BETTER BE CREDITED

no way this dude just has a fuckin spaceship in his greenhouse

#monsterdon

@moira@mastodon.murkworks.net Not yet we aren't.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

The geese know a shitbag when they see one!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon he leaves the door to the greenhouse open??

Could geese and swans survive in a constant 123F?

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

GUARD GEESE

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

sure leave the door open why not

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

@ricci @blogdiva all movies are actually about real estate! we learned this from dracular #monsterdon

"You got the boot from puttin' boots in the boot." #Monsterdon #TheFirstMenInTheMoon

Why are there geese in the green house/ lunar module room?
THE SPHERE
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

It is a lovely day in the greenhouse/spaceship launchpad and you are a horrible goose. #Monsterdon

Welcome to Pegasus Garden.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Yeah, sure he'll clean up... Just like I will...

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

oh so he's Dr Doolittle too.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

Do you get the feeling that Cavor is the sort to think he could breathe 20 leagues under the sea by just having a garden hose long enough, hooked to a snorkle?

#monsterdon

@blogdiva Guess the monster is capitalism. #monsterdon

Will he explain?
#Monsterdon

Off to the pub! #Monsterdon #firstmeninthemoon

#Monsterdon

You know, I think I’ve read this book. Except the protagonists were younger and American.

And spent less time talking about real estate.

we're whalers on the moon

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Like silicon!

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

@blogdiva It's about risky speculation #monsterdon

@blogdiva maybe the real monster was the real estate transactions we made along the way

#Monsterdon

Cavor spends most of his time saying, "I'll explain," but he never explains.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

oh please even in old timesly victorian britain they could see the moon well enough to know there wasn't a bunch of gold nuggets lying around #monsterdon

@GramrgednAngel Yeah I was thinking the same. I saw some toots about mansplaining before it happened (I'm a couple minutes behind) but I did not see it materialize...

#Monsterdon

this is not a sphere
#monsterdon

@blogdiva everything is about real estate

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Minerals? Oh, well, THAT's interesting to an English imperialist. #Monsterdon

Now LISTEN.

This is turning into straight-up Mary Poppins at this point. Break out the terrible Cockney accents and dance numbers.

#Monsterdon

antigravity boots would just flip you upside down onto the ground #Monsterdon

Was there really no better place to put the furnace? Does there need to be a huge pile of coal in the living room? Is this supposed to show how Eccentric™️ he is?

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

the moon is exceptionally high in minerals, vitamins, and fiber

#monsterdon

This is the origin story for SpaceX #monsterdon

So... the moon... is like... a fruitcake?

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 🌔🕷️ 🕷️ 😱

I think we've found a way to monetize those boer boots

#Monsterdon Gibbs is criminally negligent and profoundly stupid. He has to die. Soon.

This man is a grifter. Run, Kate!

#Monsterdon

if the floating laughing uncle or whatever from Mary Poppins is in this movie, I Quit

#monsterdon

This guy has a boots obsession.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Time for the British to invade the moon and plunder it's resourced. Jolly good show old chap.
*sigh*
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

Anyone read Danny Dunn And the Antigravity Paint?
#Monsterdon

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Dunn_and_the_Anti-Gravity_Paint

Let's hear it for the Brit crazy old geezers #monsterdon

I want to get married, but my fiancé (30M) keeps stringing me (25F) along because of his financial problems and ill thought-out business schemes. Is this a bad idea? (self.relationships)

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon *boots*! chekov's boot scam

@anarchademic @Terencio Yeah a bunch of people mentioned that when we watched it!

I can see why

#Monsterdon

finally we are going to the pub

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 🌔🕷️ 🕷️ 😱

these halpers are awfully sooty

obsessed with the boots

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

#Monsterdon

Have a heart, folks. Bedford said he wasn't a scientist, so his explanation of gravity is just a layman's phrasing. He's not explaining to the scientist, but he's indicating he grasps the concept.

Just like we do.

Now watch the movie. Eat your popcorn.

Whoever gave her those fantastic style tips neglected to include Scientist Boyfriend Red Flags
