LOOK AT THIS SHIT IT'S 1955 GODDAMN

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

Oh, I've worked out how to get VLC to stream the movie I grabbed off Internet Archive to the TV while still keeping my laptop usable to chat along.

Right... er... where are we in the movie so I can catch up?

#Monsterdon

@ranjit I loved the eclipse! #monsterdon

Hot in herre #monsterdon

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

With my newfound burgeoning skills in Audacity, I think I could create a funky soundtrack like this…one day. 🙂

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet1956 #Audacity

Always get such a headache after going into the *GREEN MACHINE* #monsterdon

Flying in spaceships always involves far more men grunting than you'd expect. #Monsterdon

Inverse Batman pole!

#Monsterdon

Classic early scifi: lots of annoying noises, for no reason, all the time

#Monsterdon

Sure, the ship looks like a frisbee. But more importantly, it inspired this toy #ApocryphalHistory #Monsterdon

"Warm in here, skipper. Mind if I.. slip into something more comfortable?"

#monsterdon

ok this set rocks and the costumes too

#monsterdon

I want one static title card telling me if it's gonna be a Star Wars or a Star Trek, and that's the only exposition anyone needs or deserves

#monsterdon

Observing with amusement the few who are belatedly realizing this is the rare Actually Good Monsterdon Movie

#Monsterdon

Eek, that's a lot of high pitched noise.

#Monsterdon

Ooo, neat green stuff :D #Monsterdon

Those hairdryers are set way too high. The disintegrated them! #Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#Monsterdon 🪐 🚫 👽 👩‍🚀 👨‍🚀 😱

apparently getting transsubstantiated is taxing

#Monsterdon aww the flight deck has a rave mode but they're all in protective stasis fields or somethin

#Monsterdon Why is the ship farting?

Is the evil Leslie Neilson the one with a goatee?

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

I will not be taking any shots at the film's score #monsterdon

Checking in for #monsterdon! This is one of my father's favorite movies, but given how you all felt about the last of those we watched (Mysterious Island) i'm kind of worried. 😅

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

#monsterdon
" men and women on rocketships my a$$".
Ain't no women on that ship.

It's a good sign when your spaceship screams at you, right?

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

Official Raves on the starship!

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

DC station, we're about to electrocute an elephant for Mr. Edison! #Monsterdon

In 1956 they thought it would take 100+ years to reach the moon? Huh

#Monsterdon

If you're thinking I've seen those uniforms before, those uniforms have been hand-me-down to various other productions. #monsterdon

I do not like the screechy noise tho

#Monsterdon

They're turning into pickles. #Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

inertial dampers are GO

#monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

The narrator gives me the impression that Marvin the Martian will show up in a few minutes, with DUCK DODGERS IN THE TWENTY-FOURTH AND A HALF CENTURY!!!

#Monsterdon

You know it's not easy to poop in space, why are the uniforms onesies?

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet

Oh no, did we accidentally pick a good movie? Somebody put _work_ into these costumes and sets, and the focus pulling is suspiciously competent!

#monsterdon

Eesh, another film where all the guys have the same haircut. :/ #Monsterdon

He just used a SONIC SCREWDRIVER as a Microphone!

#Monsterdon

That big acrylic globe is what fidget spinners looked like in the 1950s #monsterdon

To boldly go where ...oh wrong franchise.
#Monsterdon

I actually started the movie on time for once. Still not sure what's going on, but seeing as that's my usual with movies...

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I have the Blu-Ray of this so I may be off from others, we'll see

I'm going to #Monsterdon shortly. Starting a couple of minutes late because this Columbo is one of the 90 minute ones instead of 75.

I’ve heard of this film before, but don’t think I’ve seen it before. Looking forward to it—I think.

#Monsterdon #ForbiddenPlanet1956

#Monsterdon man, I thought they'd never show the title card!

Leslie Nielson? So lots of dry humor and fart noises?
