So, they will send a defective frankestein to conquer mars? No wonder this is a military project
#monsterdon
the freezing is diegetic!!! holy fuckin shit!!! what are they even doing! #monsterdon
colonel, why are you suddenly a still shot?
"Free food? Let's all forget the freezeup."
Colonel? #monsterdon
He was chosen by A.I.! #Monsterdon
marking 8:20ish for the amazing grimace for later clipping
#monsterdon A vacuum tube for a brain? That tracks..
How was I chosen as astronaut? I think they used ChatGPT.
Colonel Frank is TOTALLY NOT AN ANDROID OR ANYTHING oh shit the Colonel's glitching GET THE ROBOT OUT OF THE ROOM wait did we say robot? NOBODY WRITE DOWN THAT WE SAID ROBOT
#monsterdon (sorry these are coming so far apart, my phone is taking forever to upload these pictures!)
"I've never heard of you, explain that!"
Uh, you're an idiot?
#monsterdon
Freeze frame on the smile. That's so natural looking. FORESHADOWING
WTF is up with that smile?!
somebody reboot the colonel #monsterdon
colonel needs rebooting
"I make it a rule to never question the decisions of my superiors" says a script written not too very long after Nuremberg
ALIEN
It is! A very young James Karen! Poltergeist, Return of the Living Dead, and Frankenstein vs. The Space Monster. And of course,The Boy Who Loved Trolls. What a career!
#Monsterdon ah the Trump position. "I've never even heard of you."
Uh oh Frankie locked up
That smile is going on for way too long. Did my screen freeze?
"Colonel how did you get picked for this project?"
"Princess prefers brunettes with super creepy grins, so I answered the call"
"Are there more experienced astronauts available?"
"No, I defeated them all in ritual NASA combat to attain my position."
freeze frame on Col. Don Draper
HAH! His name is FRANK!. #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster
Awkward…
#monsterdon
Oh god, he was *picked by AI* he's gonna turn out to be a pickle salesman they nabbed from Omaha D: #Monsterdon
So AI chose this bro. Wow, this mission's already down the tubes. #monsterdon
This press conference would be better with some coffee. #Monsterdon #CoffeeWatch #frankensteinmeetsthespacemonster1965
Oh, right, we ceded all responsibility for the decision to a computer, so it must be right.
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster
Oh, so ChatGPT chose this guy. Seems legit.
"Why were you selected for this mission?"
"IDK they asked ChatGPT or something"
@cocaine_owlbear Oh my god, you're right. We didn't get to see a long, slow parking sequence!
How will we even survive this?
#Monsterdon lol, he literally blew a capacitor.
Nat? How do you explain it? Nat? NAT?!
@combatwombat He knows when you are sleeping, he knows when you're awake. #monsterdon
Now I want to get the kind of car where I can get horizontal blinds for the back window. #Monsterdon
Computers cannot err.
this must be the smallest NASA press conference
#monsterdon
Yeah that scene where he's talking to the princess looks promising...
🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️
Lou Cutell played Dr. Nadir here AND Dr. Cooperman a proctologist on Seinfeld (bought The Assman license plate).
wow that's a leap
usually spurious signals are coming from the microwave and you're going straight to ALIENS?
#monsterdon I make it a rule never to question my superiors..
@Taweret Smug aliens are a theme with us :D #Monsterdon
@Taweret We're replacing the Domme Momme from Mars?
Mars? In an era when Gemini was just entering service?
I like how in the exterior shots of the car you don't see four people in the rear seat #monsterdon
So groovy! #Monsterdon (And a fun mix in with this afternoon’s bingeing of For All Mankind.)
@Taweret that guy fucks #monsterdon
Holy crap! It's James Karen!
It is a room full of my grandfathers
Driver: Don't make me stop this car. That's the twelfth time you've asked. We'll get there when we get there. #Monsterdon #frankensteinmeetsthespacemonster1965
At this exact moment I would like nothing more that 49 million miles completely alone. #monsterdon
The subtitle for the movie: Frank Goes To Mars
Colonel Frank Saunders, who came to us straight out of that Twilight Zone episode about the guy freaking out in an isolation capsule. #Monsterdon
This movie didn't have the budget or the courage for Mr. B Natural, so they only had NAT-B.
…And the Kentucky Fried Chicken guy???
Someone tell Bat Boy (the one found in the cave) that his Dad is on the way from space to pick him up.
BOY WONDER HERE TO PUT THE "ASS" IN ASTRONAUT. #monsterdon
Bongo drum drive in a very non-military Lincoln Continental -- all 5 minutes of it
#Monsterdon NatB, or B Natural?
At least the driving scene was better than Birdemic. 😁
Frank Saunders looks like an alien himself!
#Monsterdon 🇵🇷 🧟♂️☄️ 🌌 👾 😱
"I'm in good physical condition and I haven't had time to get superstitious" <-- we all wish we could say this
#Monsterdon The algorithym chose you? Are you dating the programmer?
Ok this guy is played by John Lovitz in the remake
“I’m hanging up. They just walked in!”
In today’s movies, they wouldn’t say anything at all. They’d just hang up.
How many establishing shots do we need? #Monsterdon
I kinda like her jacket....
Ramada-ass press conference
#monsterdon It's like winning a claw game. LOL
They could've held this press conference in that car's back seat. #Monsterdon
Doing a cut from the car interior to the exterior, then immediately back to the interior for an "are we there yet?" This is a family vacation movie, isn't it?
#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster
this base has less security than most campgrounds I've ever stayed at
#Monsterdon In our tiny press conference, we will announce that things are on schedule, to go to Mars! Colonel is ready to goooooo! All data was fed into a computer, and I was the most likely candidate...ummm....isn't that AI...
Movie does a montage scene. Cuts.
Me: Yay we're finally there.
Movie: Hah! Juked! "How much longer? Maybe five minutes."
And back to long montage. Even longer this time. Still going. Still going...
The surf rock driving music. #monsterdon
@nev I was thinking Gershwin, but that works too
@hollie She didn't waste any time. #monsterdon
"Mousetrap" maybe not the best restaurant name. #monsterdon
This movie has a fun soundtrack at least #Monsterdon
Oh heck, a call from my mom delayed me by about 5 minutes. Guess I'll have to skip this opening section of... what the hell am I watching? Space sperm? #Monsterdon
Are... They gonna show the whole five minutes? #monsterdon
Soundtrack by Man or Astro-Man?, that's great :D #Monsterdon
Space coast, ghost to ghost
HOW BIG WERE CARS BACK THEN!?
they get into clown outfits before climbing out.
So why can no one sit in the front seat?
"5 minutes" And we're going to have to watch all 5 of them. #Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster
Aliens & Generals, which is not a bad name for a free-to-play game
Oops, technical difficulties so am joining #Monsterdon a few minutes late
“How you doing, Ms. Grant?”
All she does it smiles, and that tells you everything you need to know.
"...why couldn't someone sit in the front?"
B+ evil laugh, respect
#Monsterdon this traveling music is everything
burgers and beer in a drive-up restaurant, america was great
