Two moons!
I was starting to wonder if this was Dr. Moreau in space, but itβs starting to seem more like Dr. Doolittle in space.
Kitty!
Ah space sailors. #monsterdon
This version of Bringing up Baby is pretty damn good!
Honestly, Altair is an unlikely place for indigenous life. Too short a lifespan, I think.
I'd love to be able to pet a tiger. #monsterdon
Planet of Giant Purple Broccoli
Doe! A deer!
Okay, but where did the deer and the tiger come from? Di the Bellerophon bring them from Earth?
An actual wolf whistle, great work 1956. #monsterdon
How Robby can make coffee with those T-Rex arms is an engineering marvel #Monsterdon
The Krell took a load of animals from Earth to be their pets, but what did they do with the belligerent and horny man-apes?
BAMBI⦠IN⦠SPAAAAAAAACE!
#monsterdon Bringing up Baby on Altair..
Why are there earth animals?!
girl you blew the whistle you better got some goddamn leafs for us to chomp #monsterdon
"SPACE DEER!"
The Forbidden Kitty!
50s toxic masculinity is probably the most heckle-able part of this movie. It gets worse.
"How lucky I am, all three of you..."
Oh, she's poly, that's gonna come in handy. #Monsterdon
I like that Robbie looks lke a full analog robot
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon okay. Even if you're heterosexual there was nothing stopping you from having women on your team and like pairing up or something??????
She's only 19 and has never known a man
robot coffee! #monsterdon
Anne Francis alert!
Leslie rightfully suspicious. you're Morbin' charms won't work on me, sucker. #monsterdon
Oh. Of course he has a beautiful daughter.
"charming feminine touches" thanks 1956
We got this bingo square, for sure.
How many of us here would like to live like that, with a robot doing all the work, alien secrets to hide from Leslie Neilson...
"Succumbed to some dark, mysterious force" he says wearing a dark and mysterious outfit.
We shall take our space Nescafe on the linnae.
The Laws of Robotics in action. For the first time on film?
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
Coffee is served! (Fiddlesticks, I should have prepared a bingo sheet.)
sounding the interplanetary coffee klaxons #monsterdon
Love how those shutters come down
Christ, these SFX are good
What kind of dinner host pulls these tricks on their hosts though?
Tormenting his robot as well, dude ain't right....
@moira Bond villian lair vibes from this guy. "I built this place to be away from humanity... but I do love a conversation pit." #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon I hope Robby DOES topple the house because these people suck
mm, Morb already treating people(-shaped robots) like things. Villain. #monsterdon
theres no way it cooks with those hands
Once the cook discovered he couldn't shag the robot, he wasn't interested. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon If that IS stalin they have to watch out because I hear he throws sick watch parties where you get drunk and watch movies until he passes out drunk just like you're in a Frat House (in the USSR)
Morb gone whack by hisself
Morbius with that 'Thin Steven Seagal' look....
So how yall liking serious mode Leslie Neilson?
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
Coming from a time of actual (supposedly) robot cars, I understand the sailor's unease....
#Monsterdon πͺ π« π½ π©βπ π¨βπ π±
Robbie made them wear their seat belts at a time when US cars weren't even required to have them?
#Monsterdon "It promotes Rust" - typical programmer on mastodon, I see.
He sounds a little bit like Forrest Gump.
That's cute that they didn't want to assume race or gender. The future is bright.
they/them robot ftw
Leslie Nielsen, in his first comedic role!
#monsterdon
Tuskin Raiders!
I like how he makes a mechanical cash register sound when he talks
#Monsterdon NO it's H.E.R.B.I.E.!!!!
SUB- TONGUES
I hope in the real future we get robot servants who look like that
it's TREMORS #monsterdon
Space suits not required, apparently
@blue As far as I know (which admittedly isn't much) bosun is sort of an abbreviation for boatswain? Which is a naval rank, though I'm not sure what job it represents.
This is the movie that made Robby a star. #monsterdon
wow, even little bits of dust blowing around? this movie had some skills i guess. #monsterdon
Whoa, is that Oscar Goldman on the crew?
I really appreciate the model shots, and I love a good matte painting background! Excellent landing sequence.
#Monsterdon πͺ π« π½ π©βπ π¨βπ π±
Leslie Neilson's hair is the shiniest hair
Morbius has all the catgirls to himself down there, and doesn't want to share.
Satisfying 'clicks' from those old work surfaces, no silly touchscreens
He did warn them from the startβ¦! #Monsterdon
Bitch, we're landing. This isn't a space request.
Morbinβ time #monsterdon
Short movie. Dr Morbius says everything's fine, time to go home. #Monsterdon
It's Morbin time!
JJ Abrams commanding?? and morbius!?
Oops, got engrossed in viddy games, probably won't make #Monsterdon this week. >.>;
comparing this to the other 50s space movies we've done, there's a surprising lack of lying down in office furniture #monsterdon
Your 'lord' didn't make those worlds fucko....
I think the bullfrogs in the pond that borders my apartment are trying to flirt with this soundtrack
Ooh. Pretty shot of the ship over the corona. Nice! #Monsterdon
Scientist, where is our promised discovery of a hyper-drive?
#Monsterdon Warm in here? IT'S THE HUMIDITY
ok this set rocks and the costumes too
No replicator tech, just that dumbass cook. #monsterdon
Oh yeah, get ready for the soundtrack gang. This one is a doozy.
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
#Monsterdon what is the obsession with Direct Current????????
Eesh, another film where all the guys have the same haircut. :/ #Monsterdon
They're all clones of the same white guy!
A flying saucer with a breakfast nook has terrific sales appeal, particularly in the midcentury era.
"Electronic Tonalities"
by Louis and Bebe Barron
Couldn't even call it music!
Weeee, love these optimistic visions of the future....wish they didn't phrase it as "conquest and colonisation" thought!
Est ist VERBOTTEN!
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
Electronic film score is on! #monsterdon
Spaaaaaccceeee Tooooonnneeeesss!
Forbidden Planet (1956) now live on https://miru.miyaku.media #monsterdon

@jonny don't worry, there is a lot of stuff about it that has aged a bit poorly, like the age gap #Monsterdon
5..4..3..2..1 GOGOGO!
