I have high hopes that the only person in this movie with a goatee will turn out to be a good guy.
Welcome to Fantasy Island #Monsterdon
"To me, sir, that question is meaningless"
Robot is a nonbinary icon? :heart_nb:
#monsterdon
βGrimly determined to be of serviceβ
Thatβs, like, half of my church experience right there
Thank goodness the car had seats for exactly the number of people they wanted to take.
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
I bet Morbius totally digs alt-jazz. #Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
of course a guy called Morbius dresses all in black
You can really see where Star Trek took a lot of set design. #Monsterdon
its morbin time
Uhh... so why did they send a PHILOLOGIST to an unexplored planet?!? #Monsterdon
Something is fishy about this room... #Monsterdon
@mmezabet I believe Robby was the robot's direct inspiration #monsterdon
@gnomon The only binary it recognizes is binary code.
@squeakypancakes for once, the #Monsterdon folks have the less horrifying side of the dealβ¦
"Is it a male or a female?"
"In my case, sir, the question is irrelevant."
Mood, Robby. Mood.
That cook is really hard up.
Purple plants? I'm in.
They only speak huite #monsterdon
This futuristic robot can play up to 4 records per hour
Iβm beginning to think the soda jerk wandered in from another sound stage and didnβt realize he was in the wrong movie #Monsterdon
Gender means nothing to me, enter me gentlethems! #Monsterdon
1956 they fastened seat belts!? What a change from 1970s! #monsterdon
Here he is folks, the biggest star in this movie. Drink him in! #Monsterdon #RobbieTheRobot
It wasn't the audio effects. Leslie Nielson farted on the cart.
Cue the nerdy robot jokes!!!
He's so realistic he even farts
#monsterdon
(If you were watching this with me, you'd have to listen to me do the little star trek whistle everytime someone says bosun) #monsterdon
Wait, is this the same robot from Lost In Space?? "Danger, Will Robinson!" and whatnot??
Theyβve got a whole lot of those talking wands about. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon did⦠did the ship's cook ask if the robot had a penis just now?
This came out the same year as "Radar Men on the Moon." Like, you could have seen that and this movie in the same theater in the same year. These effects were eye popping. #Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
"Passengers will please fasten their seat belts," you barbarians
Robby: I must remind you that I am *not* a slot machine. Please do not attempt to put coins in any of my slots. Thank you. #Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
Ngl Robby is kind of cute
All those languages must be really useful on that planet π€ #Monsterdon
Can you talk like you're from Brooklyn ? #monsterdon
We came here to find survivors and we found one and he says there's danger on the surface but instead of asking him anything about it we decided to go in blind #monsterdon
Watching those guys come off the ship I was waiting to hear "hut hut hut hut"
This electronic, pre-theremin, soundtrack is amazing!
Ah, non-binary robot. Cool. Cool. Must use fuzzy logic.
R O B B Y !!!!
Soda jerk wants to know if he can fuck the robot.
#Monsterdon robby the robot is officially non-binary
same, robbie, same
Is Robby the Robot nonbinary?
I have never in my life seen a robot walk so much like a person in a suit with zero visibility #Monsterdon
I want one of those hats. #monsterdon
Is that robot being asymmetrical yet having a "face" meant to be weirdly eerie? Because it is.
Traveling 16 light years, but I'm bummed because there's no pool halls. #monsterdon #forbiddenplanet
Robert Kinoshita's magnum opus: Robby
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
βRight on the noseβ sir the ship is a circle #monsterdon
i am monitored for training and quality control
#Monsterdon I've always wondered if there was basically just like one standard robot shell that everyone used and then modified individually for these things.
@Lazarou Techbros don't understand that this is what people actually want.
The sausage fest crewing this ship might be a reason why Captain Pike's Number One is a woman.
And Robbie makes his debut! :).
#Monsterdon
Love Robbie's entrance. So dramatic with the dust.
oh it's this robit, the one who you see sometimes as a cardboard cutout or figurine in places that are pandering to boomers
So many pulp sci-fi book covers were inspired by the one mat painting #Monsterdon
I wonder what it was about saucers that fly which made the science half of sci-fi thought they were any kind of a good idea for space travel.
Iβm disappointed modern robots donβt look like they do in these old films #Monsterdon
"Do NOT Google-search on 'sub-tongues.'
Oh I know this guy. He is so famous. #monsterdon
Oh man, now THERE's a prop I've seen in a dozen sci fi movies and series :D That car was definitely in The Twilight Zone. #Monsterdon
I kinda hate watching #monsterdon on Tubi, I don't get to do screenshots. π₯Ί
why does the cart have two big giant contact lenses?
The sky -- Is it blue or is it green!
EXTERMINATE
EXTERMINATE
#monsterdon
More like Robby the Adding Machine... #Monsterdon
@Copperplate ROBBY IS A GOOD ROBOT YOU TAKE THAT FILTHY LIE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!
I think Altair should be visible tonight if it's clear. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon πͺ π« π½ π©βπ π¨βπ π±
Awww, there's Robbie!
"If you do not speak eng-lish.. Please press 1." #monsterdon
"...what's this dust coming?"
"Oh, that's just Immorten Joe."
Oh neat, this planet has Speedy Gonzales. #Monsterdon
Why does the dust make so much noise?
sandworm! #monsterdon
Enter Robby #monsterdon
#Monsterdon roadrunner?
Thankfully if they encounter any enemies they can blast T-shirts at them at long-range. #monsterdon
Graboids?!
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
#Monsterdon #CoffeeWatch asks: will Dr. Morbius serve coffee like a civilized man? #ForbiddenPlanet
Honestly, these visual effects are legit #Monsterdon
they disembark to find the powerwash simulator guy waiting to hose down their craft #monsterdon
Nice FX! #monsterdon
Okay, seriously, the SFX here are so much better than, e. g., Cecil B. De Mille's The Ten Commandments, which came out the same year!
@Taweret nobody is resisting "morbin' time" but what does it mean!??
@srol Or if they were in the south, they'd say "Ya can't git there from here. You gotta go someplace else, first."
#monsterdon
Morbius comes up "YOU CAN'T PARK HERE"
It's the Tasmanian Devil!
okay, but damn how big is this landing party? #monsterdon
Kinda wish they had asked why Dr. Morbius was so touchy.
Love artificial gravity that can be turned off without causing all the crewmen to float in the air. #Monsterdon
Robbie!
Afflack.
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet
Okay. I think I see the Disney touch in the landing repulser ray or whatever.
the great thing about having watched so many bad 50s space movies is that you can really appreciate the quality of the visuals in this one
