@Terencio lol yeah fair

though as long as we're wishing for things, I would have preferred losing the video to losing the audio

Flying Groucho Mark disguise?

Why are those blimps making helicopter noises?

They put more thought into transportation than Pacific Rim or Reptilian. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #blimp

"Sir, you've changed. You're not the suave septuagenarian hanging around models in your dressing gown that I first wanted to work for!"

Jusstahp yer cryin', it's a Gappa the times

"Sir, we've located the auto-boats. They've settled on a small island."

..What's their status?

"They've.. They've painted themselves brown, sir."

.........................😤

#Monsterdon
#monsterdondoublefeature

We commissioned four auto-boats for Gappa. They were never seen again.

I hope they're happy, wherever they are.

#Monsterdon

Stop anthropomorphising the Gappa.

"It's alright. This gentleman always walks around grabbing a little boy in blackface."

Pfft Dr McDonald from America. Because Dr Pepper was busy consulting with Mr Pibb.

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Before Japans earthquake building codes. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature #gappa

This is the least emotional emotional scene I've ever seen.

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

I'd rather not get into this right before we Gappa

#Monsterdon

Weapons don't hurt Gappa... you know what this problem needs? More weapons

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

If a 90+mm tank shell isn't doing squat to these guys, your high explosive rockets on your planes aren't likely to.

Also, they can scramble tanks to the location faster than planes?

I am so here for the mini destruction. ​:blobfoxcheer:​​:blobpopcorn:​

It's impossible to figure out where they will attack next? They're like 200 feet tall. You can see exactly where they are.

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

Gappas can fly faster than jet aircraft?

Are they propelled by intestinal gases caused by eating large amounts of toxic face-paint with their islanders?

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Gappa, the tri-but-not-succeed-phibian.

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

BTW respect to the camera work with the Gappas rampaging across the island, that was actually pretty good

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

"We should tell the newspapers for scientific reasons."

What about telling, well, ya know, scientists for science reasons?

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

I think it's a reptile, but everyone in the English dub thinks it's a reptle.

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

Do non-commercial vessels go through Customs?

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

"Hey, can't you make this go any faster?'

Dude just stands there nodding.

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

@paco What there's no such thing 😂

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

I feel like the people behind At The Eath's Core "found" these monster costumes abandoned in a warehouse and realized they'd just found a way to halve their budget #Monsterdon

Look, an uncharted cave on a geologically unstable island. Let's go explore it!

#Monsterdon2 #monsterdon #GAPPA #MonsterMiru

@mdhughes That statue does NOT look just like the ones on Easter Island! This explorer is ignorant and doesn't even know it. #monsterdon
#monsterdondoublefeature
#gappathetriphibianmonster1967

One statue down, three totem poles in the village fitted with shock-absorbers to prevent that self-same.

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

so many bananas

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

@Lazarou maybe, but, like, *any* Japanese people, not just the specific ones who came the first time? 🤷

Either way it probably turns into something interesting, I'm here for it

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

@Lazarou So cute, like a pelican! #monsterdon

"Gappa fly. And swim. And walk. Gappa triple threat."

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

I hope we find out why Gappa is so interested in having Japanese people come back to the island

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Wait a minute. This dude has a reel-to-reel recorder? On a table. Where is the electricity coming from? The dancers?

"Well, the extreme seismic activity caused by a live volcano shouldn't prove problematic to any construction plans for a giant-and-remote holiday resort-cum-theme park."

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Poor sherpa got the job of carrying this dude's double-sized mattress up the mountain. They call him Captain Glamping because he camps in the field with his mattress.

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

Good thing they all remembered their standard explorer short shorts

With binoculars, you can see an island with an erupting volcano. But without the binoculars, it's just empty ocean. Those are some intergalactic megabinoculars.

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

Already several times more has happened in this movie than the entire last one

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Jurassic Park but with Playboy Bunnies?

Sold.

The title theme to GAPPA compels dancing badly.

finished watching Gappa, the Triphibian Monster 🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑
Big budget kaiju movie full of tropes, but maybe originated some of them?

"I'm sorry, I ruined both your ambitions..."
"... Oh, you're going to make it up to us alright. Playmate Island is back on, and we need a new star attraction.
You'll earn us back every cent."

I realized there hadn't been any dialogue for a while so I looked up and now they can all fly and you've now got three problems circling your city?

"Papa, they're so happy"
"That's just them expelling lake-water from their ocular cavities before flight, you ignorant child.
You were already told the monsters don't have human emotions.
Because why would they? They're not remotely human."

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

My English dub just suddenly forgot to dub, got the daughter's lines in Japanese

#Monsterdon #MonsterMiru

@combatwombat unclear but I have just been using Gappa for any/all of them

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Are they just all called Gappa? Or just the mom. Gappa, Gappo & Gappino. #monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

This same story from the kaiju's perspective would make a different but also pretty neat movie

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

I'm not crying you're crying oh no the beak rub! #Monsterdon

#GappaTheTriphibianMonster1967

We get a poignant closing Gappa theme too?

One wonders why the parent Gappas went on a rampage around Tokyo etc. if their goal was really to find their baby

(not that I'm complaining, when the result is this movie)

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

These Gappa have big "What's This I See" energy

#Monsterdon
#monsterdondoublefeature

"Unfortunately, the first few weeks of socialisation are crucial for the Gappa species.
On meeting up with their offspring, they were unable to recognise it as their own, and pecked it to death as a competitor's child, as their species is wont to do."

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Oh, the tiny helicopters are towing the blimps and the giant monster baby.

#Monsterdon2 #MonsterMiru #GAPPA #Monsterdon

At least I don't worry about the safety of the dude in the rubber suit with all the pyrotechnics going off.

#monsterdon #monsterdondoublefeature

@crowbriarhexe A load of chinooks and a load of ropes, we established that a few weeks back?

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #Gappa

Ah yes, rocket propelled blimps, how else would you transport a Gappa?? #Monsterdon
