Oh Gamera, there are easier ways to make an omelette. #Monsterdon

@msh calling gamera camera as one of those low effort insults like calling trump a big cheetoh #monsterdon

@Taweret @apLundell Evacuating the cities just means they're capitulating to what the monsters want, too. It isn't right to reward them that way #monsterdon

We're gonna need a really big frying pan. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

you _missed_, Gamera! #monsterdon

gamera: "i lived, bitch!" #monsterdon

*your magic comma has been sufficiently charged*

#Monsterdon

Tokyo's just one big Gaos omelette now. #monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

The models, I just adore them
#Monsterdon

I swear my wake up call was for 100 years from now. Let me sleep!

#Monsterdon

I just really wanna see Gamera on the Diet building, so I can point out how Gamera is On A Diet. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

ot sure if Gauss eating a few people is worse than the destruction Gamera causes #monsterdon

some of these miniatures are pretty good

and some are reeeal uncanny valley weird

#monsterdon

@LingLass #Monsterdon 🎶

Camera knows how to make an entrance #Monsterdon

here's johnny! #monsterdon

In order to save Tokyo from Gyaos, Gamera must first destroy Tokyo. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

Smash those eggs!

#monsterdon

"Hide in this cardboard box!" #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

They should take Gamura to the vet and get those teeth trimmed. Poor thing.

#monsterdon

“I’d like to take you out in a monster-free city” is a pick-up line going into rotation #Monsterdon

"Someday, I'll show you around a monster-free Tokyo." #Monsterdon

"monster free city" matches the emotional pitch of "car free city" and tbh accurate #monsterdon

"He's here." #monsterdon

Well, when you find a monster-free city, you let me know, honey. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

Y'know, it has to be said that The Ancients basically turned Asagi into a weapons system component here. #Monsterdon

the sunset shot is so good, they should have put another ten or fifteen seconds of it in there, just really sergio leone that shit #MONSTERDON

@jonny well that's after chomping on a bunch of people and trains and whatnot so I think it's fair

#Monsterdon

and a father's love reawakens Gamera. #monsterdon

“Sweetie, you’d tell your dad if you became a priestess psychically bonded to a prehistoric monster, right?” #monsterdon

"I'd like to take you out in a monster-free city"

"I'd like to take you out anywhere, just give me the opportunity."

#monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Thank you, this has been your hourly Kaiju Traffic update. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Gamera looking at the hailstorm of missiles like, “Ooh yeah, I had an itch right there.”

Was that a fucking Mary Poppins poster on the back of her door lmao #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

@lytta @SnoopJ I don’t think they had names, though, which is sometimes part of the test. #monsterdon

@OldRustBucket

...the baseball game will be rescheduled...

@Taweret

#GameraGOTU
#Monsterdon

this feels like "action! action! action!" and then they kinda forgot how they were gonna wrap up the last 30m #monsterdon

Cue environmental destruction montage and exposition just to beat the moral home and leave no room for doubt.

#Monsterdon

BTW so much for not attacking within the city

#Monsterdon

"Those missils will pursue them anywhere."

"We missed!"

"Second Salvo incoming surely these won't miss" 🗼

#Monsterdon #Gamera #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Ancient Atlantians: "What you mean Gyaos is ruining the world? We gave you Gamera!"
A different Atlantian: "They made Gamera Illegal."
The first one: "They made Gamera illegal? But we left them a note!"
#monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

Thanks for making a nest for the vampire pteradon guys. Gjaos really appreciates it.
#Monsterdon #GameraGuardian

You've gotta evacuate. That's why we closed all the roads.

#Monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

So everyone had "giant monster nests on Tokyo Tower" on their bingo cards, right?

#Monsterdon

@Crazypedia #Monsterdon Digestive tracks?

Gyaos just wants to nap & eat, is that really so wrong
#Monsterdon #GameraGOTU

i mean it's one button

[BRWANG]

#monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Oh no. There goes Tokyo…#Monsterdon

Wide open space leaves you vulnerable to monster birds another reason "stroads" are terrible for cities #Monsterdon

@apLundell i can remember when they tried to evacuate just a portion of the houston metro area for hurricane ike. and yeah, you're not evacuating tokyo. it would be actually impossible logistically

#monsterdon

Dow Jones is the go-to index in Japan? huh

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Yup, the video from the missle is a takeoff from the missle attacks in Iraq

#Monsterdon Ok, we now have Gamera in hot pursuit of the Gyro not-birds. So now we shoot missiles at Gamera, because letting your enemies fight each other is … uh… 🤷‍♀️

Never mind the psychic link thing, the important thing is that Asagi and Nagamine have to have a scene together #monsterdon

Love Love LOVE the silhouette shot. So great. #monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

@SnoopJ there was one scene where one of the women in the army said something to a full room that the protagonist scientist woman was in, and there may have been some conspiratorial muttering in the school scene ?/? #monsterdon

And now here's Kenji with the local sports news. #Monsterdon

@apLundell you'd think they would learn from hurricanes (i.e. basically air kaiju)

#Monsterdon

Ok I'm not usually bothered by sounds, but the wet eating/growing sounds with the bird thing now was a bit much.

#Monsterdon

And now this Neon Genesis Evangelion shot of the ruins of Tokyo Tower. #Monsterdon

@SnoopJ two girls at the beginning of the movie in the aquarium talking about kaiju and Atlantis, I think #monsterdon

here we go, the sunset shot, beautiful

#monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

oh damn, stock footage, this movie means business #monsterdon

Oh no, a full ground stop! #monsterdon

The climate activism is working!!!!#monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

@jepyang agreed

#monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

@OldRustBucket Fun fact: this is how gyoza were invented

#Monsterdon

News summary: we gonna die! #monsterdon

I can't remember if we've gotten a Bechdel pass, though. I'm guessing we have not.

Edit: we did, the girls in the aquarium if nothing else. And the girls in school just before Asagi-chan peaced out were talking about… I honestly forget, but it wasn't some dude.

#Monsterdon

"A national treasure destroyed, and we didn't even touch it."

Oh this is gonna come out of my paycheck, I just know it. #Monsterdon

@plaidtron3000 #Monsterdon Noted for future.

We just rebuild that from the last kaiju attack!!! #Monsterdon

Jeez, I'm only now getting to the chromosome scene. Thanks Pluto for those long add breaks #monsterdon

All kaiju you know that trains are good for the digestive tracts :trainpats: :godzilla:

#Monsterdon #Gamera #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

@plaidtron3000 @aprilfollies Same, and I always try to leave the torrent seeding throughout #Monsterdon itself to help support other torrenters

@davesdogmaggie I am also the Walkman #Monsterdon
#GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

You know, for 1995, Nagamine-san is a shockingly humane depiction of a competent woman that nobody is listening to.

Like, no overwrought emotional moments (even when textually she is at her limit emotionally!), no accusations of hysteria, etc.

#Monsterdon

@Ayyyydrew yeah like 15 years before or so

#monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Kaiju have VERY strong feelings about the Tokyo Tower
#Monsterdon

how do you evacuate 20 million people?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I'm actually surprised that Gamera didn't as much attention as Godzilla. It's really good.

The cabinet minister that voted for vampire pterodons that eat peopel's faces found out people's faces were being eaten by vampire pteradons? Oh no!
#Monsterdon #GameraGuardian

the military guys keep acting frustrated that they are not allowed to attack stuff in the city and well i mean i think we know why #monsterdon

@OldRustBucket Imagine how awkward it is for their parents; like, showing their kids how to roll out a kaiju condom over a skyscraper.
#Monsterdon #AfterDark

ope, sorry tokyo tower, you know the drill. #monsterdon

Oh, this was probably before Tokyo Skytree was made, isn't it

f for Tokyo tower
#monsterdon

Next up the Diet building. If they go by the book. #monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

This Walkman is me. #Monsterdon

lmao gyaos sure showed you how to use missiles

#Monsterdon

TOKYO TOWER! <sickosyes.jpg> #monsterdon

#Monsterdon “Gamera saved us all.” At the cost of some infrastructure.

Whoops, yeah. There we go. Sorry buddy, it's pretty much a requirement in these movies. #Monsterdon

more CGI missiles! stat! #monsterdon

WE MISSED IT!!?? It's roughly the size of Tokyo Tower and you MISSED IT!? Oh hey. Speaking of Tokyo Tower. There it goes. #monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

@aprilfollies I torrent the content a few hours before the show specifically to avoid this problem. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

"... [it] might work"

"Will that work?"

like, seriously, what do you expect as an answer to that question

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Well climate change is another issue in the mix here.

Yeah those safety lights you installed in urban areas sure worked when they're turned off huh

#Monsterdon #Gamera #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

SPLORK #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

@jonny ya, that's good times #monsterdon
