@floatybirb Do they have BDE while they are yeeted through space and then become the GOAT and obtain rizz?

“Geese, I adore. Chickens, I detest” #Monsterdon

@strangefour A militia of the local bunnies

#monsterdon

Cavor all like "it's not fair! there was time now! there was time!" #monsterdon

They made it! And now they die of a lack of oxygen. Or freeze to death. Or those killer bugs that live in moon rocks.
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

thank the gods radiation isn't real

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

"Good news everybody, we rolled a 20 on our D20!" #monsterdon

Nothing like 3 sardines after a trip outside of Earth's gravity. #Monsterdon #firstmeninthemoon

Holy bloomers! We're getting some good up-skirt shots now

#monsterdon

@Taweret well at least now after that rolling, all the chamber pots have been emptied

#monsterdon

🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️

Amazingly, NASA used footage of this movie to help illustrate how to land on the moon (for a time).

#FirstMenInTheMoon

@Lazarou Clearly it's right next to the sink he was shaving in? #monsterdon

Everyone climb into the sex swings for the moon landing.

#monsterdon

I am looking forward to the musical stage version of this film featuring songs about boot sales and domestic life on spacecraft.

#Monsterdon

"What other man would go all the way to the moon for you?"

Rewriting history as it happens

#Monsterdon

Again, @MagicIsTheCause: "This guy is the inspiration for Gonzo." #monsterdon

More like crash positions
#monsterdon

Cavor thought of everything, except how to land.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

That was a dramatic landing

#Monsterdon

STRANGE OBJECT IMAGED IN THE IMPERIAL VORTEX

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

The chickens flapping about in the craft is the best scene so far.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

"geese i adore, chickens i detest"

is the tagline for the movie

#monsterdon

Geese = good birds
Chickens = the devil's wild fowl
#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

He likes geese and hates chickens? This man truly is a mad scientist. #Monsterdon

I'm not a scientist or engineer by any stretch of the imagination . . . but I think I can say with some confidence that I could design a better spaceship than Joseph Cavor. #monsterdon

Geese, I adore. Chickens, I detest.

Love a good goose egg omelette for breakfast.

#monsterdon

ah how charming to be locked in a pod filled with the smell of sardines, live chickens and chamber pots

#Monsterdon

How expensive are space eggs?

#monsterdon

@cargot_robbie Frankly, that invention I'd back.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

"Eggs? In this Moon economy?"

#Monsterdon

He invented a ball that shoots people straight into the Sun? I have some thoughts #Monsterdon

"Is _that_ where all the poop smell's been coming from?!"

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

if opening a blind over a window is enough to throw you wildly off-course, that sounds like a design flaw, not user error #monsterdon

“I *knew* I should’ve taken a left turn at Venus!”

#monsterdon

Set the controls for the heart of the sun.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

#Monsterdon how.... how do any of these trajectories work

"No, not Venus!"

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

yeah the distance from the earth to the moon is basically the same as the distance from the earth to the sun #monsterdon

I think they got the wrong kind of gas in those canisters…

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

@Lazarou because calculations
#Monsterdon

@blogdiva The geese didn't even care

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

"My mother impressed upon me the importance of avoiding women".

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon it seems quite a coincidence that these guys land at the exact place that the future rocket boys land at

He gave up a woman who could drive for a trip to the moon. Smh. #Monsterdon #firstmeninthemoon

I wanted space geese :(

#Monsterdon

what is guiding the sphere?

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

how do they navigate? do they scrape paint? #monsterdon

Rope chairs for the moon launch #Monsterdon

I miss the solemn dignity of Wallace and Gromit's motivations.

#monsterdon

Tweed for the moon launch. Bold choice. #monsterdon

"Liberty! Liberty!"

Yeah the geese are escaping their creditors, too. #Monsterdon

This movie is why pilot checklists were invented

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Feeling sorry for this American lady getting ripped off by British clowns....

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 🌔🕷️ 🕷️ 😱

Get 'em, Kate. Put 'em in jail for fraud!

#Monsterdon yes Kate. Stay at the cottage. Next to the exploding furnace. Embrace the hot rumbling metal. Oh look! It’s shearing into thousands of glowing chunks of steel. Oopsie it just sliced her in half! If you don’t come with me right this moment I’ll bleed everywhere! Flop plop plop.

Yeah, my mom warned me about women leaving the greenhouse doors open, too.

????

#Monsterdon

Shotgun goes off to humorous effect in 5 4 3 2

#monsterdon

@cs in case this is f'srs: oh my no, the victorians were mad for vibrant colour. garish as all hell. their dyes weren't the best so it faded.

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

His mother told him to never get married?

#Monsterdon #FirstMenintheMoon

I only vaguely remember the original book, but the movie seems to be adapting at least the opening chapters fairly well, but

I don't remember the original book being this goofy.

#Monsterdon #TheFirstMenInTheMoon

so, she brings him supplies so he can leave, and then gives him the ultimatum that if he leaves, she's dumping him. actually the first sensible thing anyone's done all movie. #monsterdon

Oh, Kate. Walk away, ffs.

#Monsterdon

Doedeca-moon-agon.

#monsterdon

Did I miss the explanation for why the greenhouse has to be maintained at exactly 122 degrees Fahrenheit?

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon low-poly sphere

#monsterdon

Are those his battle geese?

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

Ritalin could've saved this film. #Monsterdon

@Taweret Lemme guess... the geese will fall into the anti-gravity paint, while on the moon, THEN become the monster. #monsterdon

Humanity went astray when we stopped letting crazed old coots in three-piece woolen suits be in charge of science.

#monsterdon

Haha, “lunatic expedition” #Monsterdon

First gun in the moon

#monsterdon

@MagicIsTheCause just said Lionel Jeffries reminds her of Ray from Schitt's Creek and now I can't not see it. #monsterdon

“Yes, ‘lunatic’ is just the word!”

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

the geese saw that launch so now they're going on strike for higher wages

#monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

Holy velvet! The interior on that capsule is crazy posh

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

ok, that's not a stupid way to carry a gun

Uh oh, she's let the madness infect her.

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

All y’all discussing the practicality or not of anti-grav paint on the soles of boots, I 🫶 you all so much #Monsterdon

Gun safety skills on display

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

I see gun safety was top of the list on this expedition. #Monsterdon

How long does the paint take to dry?!
#monsterdon

It is a truth universally acknowledged that a mad scientist with a plan to defeat gravity is in need of a Gibbs

#Monsterdon

Stupid girls always crying and wanting to get married while I'm trying to go on cool adventures with a mad scientist in his flying machine

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Oh, even better. Now it's red.

Amazing. Why have I never watched this film before? This is great.

It's chock-full of {moribund '60s studio} awfulness.

#monsterdon

When will Dick Van Dyke show up, singing "Chitty-chitty Bang-bang?"

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon1964

#Monsterdon Yes babycakes! They’re lunatics! Headed to Luna. Just like that. It’s adorable because it winks at the fourth wall so coquettishly.

"They're divers on the Moon / they carry a harpoon" #Monsterdon

this movie plays on the well know trope of how all men want is to invest in boots and go to the moon instead of getting a wife #monsterdon

"IF this batch goes well, we'll start coating the sphere tonight!"

FORESHADOWING!

#Monsterdon

"You see dear, I'm a massive fraud." #Monsterdon

Yes the only thing to worry about on the moon is oxygen

#Monsterdon #FirstMenInTheMoon

No, please, you really don't have to explain
#monsterdon

This is basically a much less compelling version of Welles "The Time Machine". #monsterdon

not a sphere #monsterdon

Goose on the ship! Goose on the ship! #Monsterdon

From personal experience—we had one near the faculty lunchroom at work—attack geese would be monstrously effective. #monsterdon

dang this guy invented rapid unscheduled disassembly for space craft too
#monsterdon
