"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.

#Monsterdon

They only speak huite #monsterdon

This futuristic robot can play up to 4 records per hour

#Monsterdon

I’m beginning to think the soda jerk wandered in from another sound stage and didn’t 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.

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

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??

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

They’ve 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

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#Monsterdon I love how they have to know if the robot is a boy or a girl before they can follow it.

It's a ROBUT .WHO CARES.

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 🤔 #Monsterdon

Watching those guys come off the ship I was waiting to hear "hut hut hut hut"

#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

Can you talk like you're from Brooklyn ? #monsterdon

This electronic, pre-theremin, soundtrack is amazing!

#monsterdon
#ForbiddenPlanet

Ah, non-binary robot. Cool. Cool. Must use fuzzy logic.

#monsterdon #forbiddenPlanet

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

R O B B Y !!!!

Soda jerk wants to know if he can fuck the robot.

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#Monsterdon robby the robot is officially non-binary

this dude already trying to find out if the robot is fuckable. smh #monsterdon

same, robbie, same

#monsterdon #gender

Is Robby the Robot nonbinary?

#Monsterdon

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.

#Monsterdon

Traveling 16 light years, but I'm bummed because there's no pool halls. #monsterdon #forbiddenplanet

We get more super nice effects shots where the saucer lands and the crew descends via a stairway, then decide to gawk at the green sky and a dust devil. But the dust devil turns out to be a robot driving a goofy looking minimalist space car. He ambles out to meet them and bows congenially, announcing that he is a robot butler named Robby who has maxed out his duolingo score and will take them to meet the doctor via the silly car.

“Right on the nose” sir the ship is a circle #monsterdon

i am monitored for training and quality control

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#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.

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

The sausage fest crewing this ship might be a reason why Captain Pike's Number One is a woman.

#Monsterdon

And Robbie makes his debut! :).

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#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

#monsterdon

So many pulp sci-fi book covers were inspired by the one mat painting #Monsterdon

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

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.

I’m disappointed modern robots don’t look like they do in these old films #Monsterdon

"Do NOT Google-search on 'sub-tongues.'

#monsterdon

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. 🥺

why does the cart have two big giant contact lenses?

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#Monsterdon

The sky -- Is it blue or is it green!

#monsterdon The absolutely fantastic Robby the Robot, everyone..

EXTERMINATE

#monsterdon

More like Robby the Adding Machine... #Monsterdon

@Copperplate ROBBY IS A GOOD ROBOT YOU TAKE THAT FILTHY LIE OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

I think Altair should be visible tonight if it's clear. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🪐 🚫 👽 👩‍🚀 👨‍🚀 😱

Awww, there's Robbie!

Colloquial English will do fine.

"If you do not speak eng-lish.. Please press 1." #monsterdon

"...what's this dust coming?"
"Oh, that's just Immorten Joe."

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

Oh neat, this planet has Speedy Gonzales. #Monsterdon

Why does the dust make so much noise?

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

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

C’est l’heure de morbage

#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!

#Monsterdon

@Taweret nobody is resisting "morbin' time" but what does it mean!??

#monsterdon

@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

It's the Tasmanian Devil!

#monsterdon

Morbius comes up "YOU CAN'T PARK HERE"

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

okay, but damn how big is this landing party? #monsterdon

Kinda wish they had asked why Dr. Morbius was so touchy.

#Monsterdon

Love artificial gravity that can be turned off without causing all the crewmen to float in the air. #Monsterdon

Robbie!

#monsterdon
#ForbiddenPlanet

Afflack.
#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

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

#monsterdon

Okay. I think I see the Disney touch in the landing repulser ray or whatever.

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet1956

#Monsterdon
I wish I could get my client to keep the tag.

The astrogation console is awesome. I think they tried to copy this a bit on the bridge of the Enterprise, but it never looked this impressive!

Some of us dream of growing to love alien skies.....

#Monsterdon

They think there’s going to be survivors after TWENTY YEARS‽ #Monsterdon

@moira THIS PARKING SPOT RESERVED FOR

"I warn you... I beg you to reconsider" "ehhhh its probably no big deal let's not change course on our plan or even listen to the rest of his warning"
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

Who else is he talking to? The whole crew is there. #Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

@CactuarJoe Genuinely relatable.

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

I'm faving all of the "It's Morbin' time!" comments as a matter of policy.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon
Reverse polarity!!!

We're reversing polarity folks! Stand by! #Monsterdon

@TerryHancock @paco This is my first time seeing it. These shots look better than the updated CGI on the Blu-ray editions of Star Trek TOS.
