Schoolgirl: "Wait, where are you going?" and segue...is she in the fighter jet?!

#Monsterdon

“I want to join the SDF and fight the monster”–I expected maybe some militarism but not a recruitment pitch. #monsterdon

I don't believe a word you're saying but we need to give these imaginary creatures a name as first order of business

#Monsterdon #Gamera #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Wait, what the hell just happened?! Did Gamera just use a smoke screen then turn into a spinning top UFO and fly away? Is this a thing? (This is my first exposure to this Kaiju)

#Monsterdon

Makes me miss my old Montero. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

I'd rather be Giant Turtle Patrol than Bird Specialist. #monsterdon

"cranes don't eat people, people eat people!" #monsterdon

the little mitsubishi that could #monsterdon

OMG PAJERO #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

#Monsterdon The (not) birds are awakening from bullet- induced slumber!

“Cranes don’t eat people” is an urban myth stay away from cranes #Monsterdon

The Self Defense Force was still flying Phantoms in 1995? How could they afford the fuel? Or the parts? #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

Umm....do you know the survival rate of military personnel attacking kaiju? #Monsterdon

Real planes? WTH Gamera? Couldn't afford any models? #monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

"Cranes don't eat people!"
Well. Not usually, anyway.

These writers have definitely seen "Jurassic Park".

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon That scaffolding never had a chance.

Gamera stalking through the cloud of dust is a great visual.

I'm getting ready for Gamera to be the baby daddy to the GAOS.

#monsterdon

I've seen things that look like that amulet on the Adam & Eve web site.

Just sayin.

#GameraGOTU
#Monsterdon

Here comes "We gotta save em' We'll be RICH!" Plot #monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

"All of them are females."

"How can you tell? Did you ask? Do you suddenly speak Gyaos?"

#monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

#Monsterdon #CoffeeWatch WE HAVE COFFEE SIGN!!!!!

Now for the monster speculation portion of our movie. #Monsterdon

What is this table?
#Monsterdon
Cranes don't eat people.

Gamera is just an invention by Big Comma to sell more commas,

#Monsterdon #Gamera #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse #BigComma

Not to do more Ace Attorney references, but he needs to take a class from Phoenix Wright on how to slam your hands on a table properly. #Monsterdon

damn, this movie is getting me hungry, and not cause the birds food.
#monsterdon

I mean yeah maybe the monster is just tired! #monsterdon

But I have come to court her with this watermelon!

#Monsterdon

Gamera is responsible for unaffordable home mortgage rates too probably #monsterdon

Imagine the board of directors having a meeting in the middle of your open floor office and you have to sit there and look busy the whole time
#Monsterdon

they gave this dude a voice actor who is talking like Betty in Kung Pow and i feel bad for him #monsterdon

thats some good looking meat #monsterdon

finally gave up on insisting they aren't birds #monsterdon

COFFEE TIME!

#monsterdon

The porgy is too damn high!

#monsterdon

i like this room starting to rotate faster and faster any moment

#monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Gamera is Norse? Who was the skald of the sköld turtle?
#Monsterdon #GameraGuardian

ok but who is pigtails girl, what's her deal

#monsterdon

Watermelon S&M lingerie. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

#Monsterdon A watermelon isn't exactly the best way to a girl's heart, White Shirt. Maybe ... try something else?

@lytta He sure seems to think he does! #monsterdon

#monsterdon Overall I would say I prefer Gamera over Godzilla, Godzilla is more goofy with dancing and Gamera has spaceship powers lmao. But in the end they're booth good in comparison.

Why did he bring only one Watermelon? We all know watermelons are single person fruit

#Monsterdon

Warm and glowing usually means radioactive. #Monsterdon

What do you mean she's gone? I spent $300 on this watermelon! #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

@diazona you must capture the commas. #monsterdon

i got my watermelon all dressed up just for you and you said nothing #monsterdon

Just walking home with a watermelon in a net, as one does. #Monsterdon

Odo? #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

It's glowing, now she can unlock her dad's psyche-locks. #Monsterdon #thisonesjustfortheaceattorneyfans

Orichalcum? That's from that Zelda game, right?

#Monsterdon

I didn't notice until just now how much time people spend in kaiju movies pointing at stuff

#monsterdon

I think Pluto commercial breaks are longer than the ones on Tubi. Not feeling the love #monsterdon

ok, nobody expects a giant flying ufo turtle thing who does a dick shaped hole on a baseball field.
#monsterdon

...is that a normal way to carry a watermelon? #monsterdon

they really couldn't not think it was humans that made it. No other way something could exist ever.

#monsterdon

Oh those Atlantians!
#Monsterdon

@Configures oh maybe. i confess i had to type a joke into the internet, so i looked away. (^_^) #monsterdon

#Monsterdon “We can’t do anything without authorization, even in a situation as ridiculous as this!” Yeah, well, welcome to the military.

@arrjay wait hold up was there a regex somewhere that I missed

#Monsterdon

....does Yonemori just live with them now #monsterdon

This portion of tonight's movie is brought by our sponsor, Turtle Wax #Monsterdon

At least they didn't call it freaking unobtanium. #monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

@paco Look at them cute googly eyes. Like Kermit's demon cousin.
#Monsterdon #GameraGuardian

those trinkets are made of a totally new kind of metal we have never seen before, guess it's fine to just hand em out as prizes for knowing how to read #Monsterdon

Gamera mst have a big feud with this birds. It sure don't like them
#monsterdon

Translates to: "All employees must wash hands before returning"

#monsterdon
#Gamer:GaurianOfTheUniverse

@paco The strongest shape. The strongest negative space. #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

The metal bars look as if they were shaved with a six-blade razor #monsterdon

OMG it's the rocket powered turtle shell
#Monsterdon #Gamera #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

not watching gamera but I am in spirit. did you know it's the favorite movie series of arale from Dr. slump?? #Monsterdon

What do you serve for a Monster Stomping Thru Your Town party? #Monsterdon

Yeah, leave the dome alone, Gamera! What did the dome ever do to you?

#monsterdon

Gamera is going to cause people to go nuts and hoard toilet paper, just you watch #monsterdon

the "monster impact on ordinary citizen life" is...a thing #monsterdon

i have one of those spinning newspapers in my profile. i must have watched the subbed version last time we did it #monsterdon https://sunny.garden/@forestine/110013430595483627

"i'm stress eating"

#monsterdon

Yeah the 1990s were tough on Japan with all that Kaiju-driven inflation and all #Monsterdon

...Okay that looks good. #Monsterdon

Oh, oh, the "House of Representatives" will be right on that.

#Monsterdon

Have you tried hitting him? #monsterdon #gameraguardianoftheuniverse

alright who gave the monsters a sawzall #monsterdon

Wow the birdies' dematerialization breath was even nice enough to polish the cut ends of the cage bars

#Monsterdon

Kaijuflation, they call it.

#Monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Gamera is part frisbee #monsterdon

miss the 90’s when everyone went outside to watch tv together #Monsterdon

it's 2025, and the only new data LLM-based AIs can train on now is each new #monsterdon session

corporations all end up having different godzilla spin-offs as mascots that act as their online help/chat and search engine, due to the sheer amount of discourse being scraped from the monsterdon hashtag on mastodon

github copilot now only autocompletes with various screams of GODZILLAAAAAAAA!!!! and MOTHRAAAAAAAA!!!!

google now asks you "did you mean godzilla?" with every search

The real monster was that kid all along. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Meanwhile, Gamera sees your three 15 meter not-birds and raises you a Hell-turtle.

You will believe a turtle can fly.
#Monsterdon #GameraGuardian

For some reason I was thinking of Gamera the Brave when I made the bingo card. Ha! Well, we'll see how it all shakes out. Turtle tropes being somewhat universal.

#Monsterdon

does this movie not take place in the rest of the godzilla universe where japan has been responding to godzillas and shit with a military for like the entire time since WWII and for all known history? #monsterdon

the spinning newspaper headline that stops on the diagonal is the best part of the movie #monsterdon

Manufacturing consent. When the bill is ratified, the news anchor says, as if there is no doubt.

#Monsterdon #GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

Thrust to weight ratio indicates he must be using a hydrogen nuclear rocket engine, nothing else would work..

#Monsterdon
#GameraGuardianOfTheUniverse

@jonny gamera has two flying modes (at least?). not sure why #monsterdon

not impressed tbh, that's how i leave a party too

#Monsterdon #GameraGOTU

This fancy new 1995 Gamera can really spin up the RPMs!

#monsterdon
#Gamer:GaurianOfTheUniverse

if we attack the monster it could set a bad precedent, by nate silver #monsterdon

Whoa! Flashing light content warning, sheesh
