cocktails *after* the press conference, of course, how gauche of me to assume otherwise

#monsterdon

Guys, THIS is why Data couldn't use the emotion chip until the movie :/ #Monsterdon

Ooh that was unsettling, very good #Monsterdon

At least he died happy

#monsterdon

Oops, he froze, somebody reboot him. #monsterdon

Brain in a Jarhead?

#Monsterdon

Install a better colonel

#monsterdon

@Taweret

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

:harold:

#Monsterdon

That was unexpected.... and not completely in a bad way! #monsterdon

Fugue state general

#Monsterdon

Oh no, is he a robot!??

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

I made it in time to see the close-up of the frozen officer who never questions orders!! 🤨

#Monsterdon

I guess this is what you call a....

GENERAL PROTECTION FAULT?!

😂

#monsterdon

So, they will send a defective frankestein to conquer mars? No wonder this is a military project
#monsterdon

colonel, why are you suddenly a still shot?

#Monsterdon

"Free food? Let's all forget the freezeup."

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

Colonel? #monsterdon

He was chosen by A.I.! #Monsterdon

marking 8:20ish for the amazing grimace for later clipping

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon A vacuum tube for a brain? That tracks..

How was I chosen as astronaut? I think they used ChatGPT.

#monsterdon

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

#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

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

colonel needs rebooting

#monsterdon

"I make it a rule to never question the decisions of my superiors" says a script written not too very long after Nuremberg

#monsterdon

somebody reboot the colonel #monsterdon

ALIEN

#monsterdon

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

#Monsterdon ah the Trump position. "I've never even heard of you."

That smile is going on for way too long. Did my screen freeze?

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster1965

Uh oh Frankie locked up

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

"Colonel how did you get picked for this project?"

"Princess prefers brunettes with super creepy grins, so I answered the call"

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

"Are there more experienced astronauts available?"

"No, I defeated them all in ritual NASA combat to attain my position."

#Monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

freeze frame on Col. Don Draper

#monsterdon

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.

#Monsterdon

"Why were you selected for this mission?"
"IDK they asked ChatGPT or something"

#Monsterdon

@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

#Monsterdon lol, he literally blew a capacitor.

Nat? How do you explain it? Nat? NAT?!

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

@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.

#Monsterdon

this must be the smallest NASA press conference
#monsterdon

wow that's a leap

usually spurious signals are coming from the microwave and you're going straight to ALIENS?

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

#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?

#Monsterdon

Mars? In an era when Gemini was just entering service?

#Monsterdon

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!

#Monsterdon

It is a room full of my grandfathers

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster1965

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

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpacemonster

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.

#Monsterdon
#FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

…And the Kentucky Fried Chicken guy???

#Monsterdon

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

#Monsterdon NatB, or B Natural?

At least the driving scene was better than Birdemic. 😁

#Monsterdon

Frank Saunders looks like an alien himself!

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster1965

#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?

“I’m hanging up. They just walked in!”

In today’s movies, they wouldn’t say anything at all. They’d just hang up.

#Monsterdon

How many establishing shots do we need? #Monsterdon

I kinda like her jacket....

#monsterdon

Ramada-ass press conference

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon It's like winning a claw game. LOL

A NEW MAN?!

A NEW MAN!

#monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

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

"The latest story is that there's going to be a NEW MAN!"

:transgender_flag:

#monsterdon

this base has less security than most campgrounds I've ever stayed at

#monsterdon

#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...

#monsterdon

@hollie She didn't waste any time. #monsterdon

@nev I was thinking Gershwin, but that works too

#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

#Monsterdon #FrankensteinMeetsTheSpaceMonster

HOW BIG WERE CARS BACK THEN!?
