This film is too good for the likes of us

@strangefour@retro.pizza Because annelid experts are also reptile experts!

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Dr Topless, the worm guy #Monsterdon

It took a French guy speaking English, a language he didn't know, to get him to answer.

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Title drop? By way of mistranslation by a Frenchman.
#Monsterdon #Gino

@saucerlost HOW DID YOU KNOW #monsterdon

#monsterdon There we go! We have TITULAR.

wow this white guy's japanese is kinda rough
#monsterdon

@Lazarou

Glenn Morshower... but with hair!

#Monsterdon

What sort of helicopter was that? I don't think it was a CH-47 and definitely wasn't an Mi-8

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Hey! Did you guys like that mispronouncing the Greek last name joke?

I hope you did!

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Ummm. Russians working for who now?

#monsterdon

this was definitely made when the X-Files was cool huh

#monsterdon

preettttty sure I had zero fucking idea what Chernobyl was as a kid when I saw this 🥴

#monsterdon

Oh god, he's got an Unrequited Relationship -_-;

The Formula -_-; #Monsterdon

FLYING BANANA #monsterdon

I need worms for my garden....

#Monsterdon

I miss the Japanese actors already

#Monsterdon

Ferris Bueller is not having a good day off.

#Monsterdon

oh look it's the Asian Guys in every movie between like 1988 and 2018

#monsterdon

Why is the egg oval-shaped if Godzilla is supposed to be a marine iguana in this movie? Lizard eggs are round. Only bird and dinosaur eggs are oval-shaped 😤 #Monsterdon

just cheerily drivin' to the nuclear test site

#monsterdon

Submarine radar sound was the original ASMR

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

@SRLevine I'm pretty sure "Arrrghhhh!" doesn't need translation.
#monsterdon

lol, what did that one guy do to Godzilla?!

#Monsterdon

Matthew Broderick how did you let them make you sing "singing in the rain" in the rain

#monsterdon

Godzilla HATES sumo

#Monsterdon

@bunnyhero @MatthewTitus88 don't forget the GODZILLA VANILLA™️ Ice Scream! :blobtonguewink: #Monsterdon

@Lazarou As opposed to Godzilla Dril, who would face Godzilla and walk backwards into Hell. #Monsterdon

If all of the Japanese films I've seen have taught me anything, the pixelated thing approaching theme is a giant penis. #monsterdon

loose knives? on _my_ good ship?!

#monsterdon

Who said Chef wasn't the most dangerous position for a ship's crew?

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

#Monsterdon 🦖 🌇 🦶 😱

I too would enjoy some ramen.

There is a bingo card available!

@cd0 Stage name. 😃
#monsterdon

Now I want noodles...

#Monsterdon

Maybe a better title for the movie should be Igunanadon's Revenge?
#Monsterdon #Gino

I’m being watched by Dogzilla and she wants my cheese.

#Monsterdon

Weird, Tubi gave me “content unavailable” for Godzilla…

#Monsterdon

Oh, right. Emmerich.

As we all know, his last serious film was Stargate four years earlier.

ID4 leaned heavily into bombast, but was a directorial achievement (if utterly corny).

And his next film?

Yeah.

Strap in!

#monsterdon #godzilla1998

@kcarr2015 I think they died :( #MOnsterdon

meanwhile in "we can't afford the Alien license"

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

So there were lizards at Bikini Atoll and end of exposition? #Monsterdon

FYI
The collective noun for a group of lizards is a lounge.
#Monsterdon #godzilla1998

*cheers stock nuclear weapon footage

#Monsterdon

The lizards are watching a mushroom cloud. I’m sure nothing bad will happen to them #Monsterdon

NOOOO, NOT IGUANAOPOLIS #Monsterdon

@strangefour actually the cupholder is better than the movie

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

There’s all the Simpsons folks! #Monsterdon

do iguanas and montior lizards live in the same place? #monsterdon

Iguana from the Black Lagoon

Oh, no, sorry, Godzilla

#monsterdon

NGL, I love the grainy sepia toned vibe

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998 so in the news recently there had been France doing the last of their nuclear tests in the Pacific, and that's why this remake decides to blame the nukes on the French because you'll think "i, an intellectual, have heard of France on the news"

probably one of the last things to be offered on dvd, vhs, and laserdisc (according to the ad miru played)

#monsterdon

SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER OPENING!

THEY REALLY THOUGHT THIS SHIT WAS GONNA FLY

#Monsterdon

Mooooovie in the hole!

#monsterdon #godzilla1998

Oh how I miss the TriStar pegasus 😢

#monsterdon

💡 TURN DOWN YOUR LIGHTS 💡

(where applicable)

#Monsterdon

RIP Daigoro
#Monsterdon #DaigorovsGoliath

Just tell em ya uncle works for Nintendo, baka!

#monsterdon #WrongGodzilla

Thanks @Taweret A fine good time with a very bad film. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Mouth spotted so not a moomin.
Thank gods
#Monsterdon

If a typical #monsterdon clocks in at 90 minutes, then this 139-minute monsterdon-a-thon was 1.54 monsterdons.

And a big apology to #monsterdon for fondly remembering #minilla out loud, that's my sign to stop posting XD

Daigoro Kaiju, loyal wingman

#monsterdon #WrongGodzilla

Now it's a hungry lamb. Trust me I hand raised one.
#Monsterdon

wat kinda critter is Daigoro supposed to be anyways?

#monsterdon #WrongGodzilla

#monsterdon omfg this double feature, what if chitty chitty bang bang was a velomobile. It's pretty cheesy but I would watch a Ghibli anime based on the source material

edit: is Diagoro a Moomin?

@apLundell If they can throw out lawyers involved in litigation against the venue, they could *probably* catch a daikaiju. At least check their ticket. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

In the distant future of 1972, Japanese towns turn to kaiju in place of mascots...

#Monsterdon #DaigorovsGoliath

@strangefour the perfect followup #monsterdon

Kick uncle please
#Monsterdon

Good luck Daigaro. I guess
#Monsterdon

this MFer is like a One Punch Man C-level Hero

#monsterdon #WrongGodzilla

@msh @Taweret I would also like a little Jet Jaguar, as a treat. #Monsterdon

This is a film that tells you in advance exactly how seriously you should take it!

#Monsterdon #DaigorovsGoliath

"A Desperate Monster Tussle: in Jello!"

#Monsterdon

Awww shy bowels. Poor kaiju.
#Monsterdon

Thanks @gfzoda for watching that ridiculous movie with me, and providing one or two of my livetoots #Monsterdon

Why are they starving Daigoro? The poor bean!

#Monsterdon #DaigorovsGoliath

Daigoro ain't trying to hear about budget constraints!

#Monsterdon

Anyway, great job team, this is Alpha Control celebrating another movie launched into space.

Thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting!

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

That drawing looked like a hippocatamus
#Monsterdon

Around 23:00 someone knocked on my door. Just about when I was watching the bridge scene in #Gocailla1989. When I went to look no one was there.

I'm slightly concerned.

If y'all don't hear from me tomorrow, keep an eye on the news I guess. o.O

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon
Reminds me of how in Godzilla final wars the American Godzilla was on for like 5 minutes before getting squished.

How it should be.

Nipples Batman and Chin Godzilla #Monsterdon

@starkraving666 "Clearly visible", i mean.. #monsterdon #godzilla1998

This music makes me goosebumpy
#Monsterdon

I kinda wanna do final wars just for the scene where Godzilla kicks Zilla into the syndey opera house

#monsterdon

You would have thought they'd shoot at least one beacon into the thing.
#monsterdon

@xoagray literal hearts maybe

screenwriters', director's, producer's

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

RE: https://retro.pizza/@CactuarJoe/115880173328696756

I need a shower. #Monsterdon

The release of Dreyer's Godzilla Vanilla ice cream was forced to be postponed until May 20 due to the design of TriStar's Godzilla, which was intended to be left ambiguous up until the release of the film, being clearly visible on the packaging. #monsterdon #godzilla1998

What in the claymation??? Thank you, @miru , this is a great chaser!!!

#Monsterdon

and now some weird Wallflowers "Heroes" remix.

Please stop

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

@Taweret

It's all downhill from here...

#Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie LOL yeah, leave um something to ponder. #monsterdon #Gozilla1998 #WrongGodzilla 🦖🦎

@Taweret Maybe we should just watch Matango again so we can remember what joy feels like
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Thanks for hosting, @Taweret , @Cherizilla , @JoeWynne , @paco , and all #monstersdonians .. you can exit to a perversion of Led Zeppelin's Kashmir now..

@Taweret enthusiastically

_good_
