“Where did you find this guy?”

“He’s from France.”

I half-laughed. This movie has broken me.

#Monsterdon

Okay so we run through the mall which is also a stadium and get to a broadcast booth, then we pass a persuasion check to get the news network guy to broadcast their feed so they can tell the world "Oh Fuck Dinosaurs That Are Also Born Pregnant Like Tribbles OH FUCK! Blow up this building plz. We will die heroic deaths to save humanity from the tribble dinosaurs."

#monsterdon

@Taweret there are still like 17 more product placements to do #godzilla1998 #monsterdon

Nobody likes you, Madison Square Garden. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

"He's from France"

he hides that cone head well.

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1989

Oh my god she got her big break and redeemed herself in his eyes too somehow I think?

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

God, they even did the Raptors Coming Through the Windows thing. Is there any part of this movie they DIDN'T steal from a better film? #Monsterdon

Were the F-18 models recycled from ID4 or not?

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

#monsterdon looks like yea, my bike meeting was the better choice :P

"I want you to blow up Madison Square Garden!"
@uptownsongclub "At least Kevin Dunn got that for his acting reel"

#monsterdon

They were waiting to break the windows until he broke it first, like a game of Hearts. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

I guess it would've been too complicated to cut in some of that footage of the babies.

(Is it bad as well that I thought 'yeah, they definitely didn't consider the part where there are still people in the building and potentially close by'?)

BLOCKBUSTER #godzilla1998 #monsterdon

Heads coming through windows like fucking Dino Hunt

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

#Monsterdon 🦖 🌇 🦶 😱

Rather than blowing up Madison Square Garden I vote you cut your losses and blow up the rest of this movie

#monsterdon

They're all wise guys.

They're Good Zillas.

"They're very strong, they're agile and they're looking for food."

And that's why you always make sure to give craft services to Cirque de Soleil acrobats

#Monsterdon

The party was over soon as the movie started, fam...

#monsterdon

"I want you to blow up Madison Square Garden" had VERY different vibes in 1998 #godzilla1998 #monsterdon

oh its an Emmerich film so we have to blow up a landmark because that's the only trick he knows

#monsterdon

@wohali shoot me now

#Monsterdon

Kiss him, you fool #Monsterdon

"Regardless of what happens to us, this movie must end eventually..."
#monsterdon

Fuck off Audrey

#Monsterdon

This is sooo not the time for a sweet romantic moment 🤦‍♀️

#Monsterdon

Mr Emmrich, your movie doesn't need to go on like this. Making a movie longer does not make up for the lack of quality. #monsterdon

"this building is like a park to them; it's become... jurassic"

#Godzilla #Godzilla1998 #Monsterdon

how can this possibly go on for another half an hour? tell me the runtime includes like 12 minutes of credits or something

#monsterdon

"If the military is listening, you need to destroy them before they can fuck off into the sea." #monsterdon

They're born pregnant like tribbles.

#Monsterdon

Over nine feet tall!!! OMG, I forgot how much taller than me these babies are. :blobfoxshocked: #Godzilla #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

welp. always wanted to nuke NYC from orbit.

#monsterdon

lol @ "obviously these creatures will take over the World if we don't destroy them all"

Did a teenager write this?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon hey you fucking radioactive earthworm expert, the Godzillas will die off in the winter! No problem

@pngwen you wanna buy a rolex? #NotThoseKindOfFences #monsterdon

Time to drop a Davy Crockett on Madison Square Garden.

But I've been saying that for decades.

#monsterdon #Godzilla1998

Broderick is just making shit up now. Those are a lot of assumptions.

#Monsterdon

"monsters are going to eat you"
*john williams-ass majestic french horns*

#monsterdon

"Born pregnant"

Cold Blooded Tribbles #Monsterdon

Instead of showing a boring interview, you could show the baby dinosaurs in Madison Square Gardens

(Those aren’t baby Godzillai, and you can’t convince me they are) #Monsterdon

This scene is way out of place considering a few minutes ago they were running for their lives.

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1989

These reptiles are born pregnant.

That's how they make men irrelevant. #Monsterdon

Born pregnant!? They made Godzilla a fucking tribble!? #Monsterdon #Godzilla98 #GINO

hhhhgh

how is there still a half hour left

#Monsterdon

I just want to replace all this dialogue with Charlie Brown adult womp-womp-womp noises

#monsterdon #FakeZilla #Godzilla1998

Get Hicks!

I'm not Hicks, I'm Husdon! He's Hicks!

#Monsterdon

Oh yeah, the payphones were Sprint too

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

whoever it was that said this is just a Simpsons ep gone wild is far wiser than i #godzilla1998 #monsterdon

I like how we get the triumphant music as we learn how fucked they are, very nice

#monsterdon

@Lazarou I think she might have said "Intranet" instead of "Internet" (an "Intranet" being a sort of mini-internet that a business might use for internal communications.

#monsterdon

“We have to get to the other side of the city so we can power up the fences.” That’s the next part, right? #Monsterdon

She put her hair back so her boss will remember the time she convinced him to hire her #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

What? No electrocution plan?

STILL 30 MINUTES LEFT!!!

#monsterdon

No need to sound urgent or anything, right?

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

and somehow the dude using both hands to take off his glasses in that scene is the least realistic thing yet.

#monsterdon

RangerS you fucking idiots

#monsterdon

she put her hair back to indicate that this is the end of her character arc of wanting to be a real journalist, you see

#Monsterdon

@klu9 Godzilla lounging on a beach in Tahiti, earning 20%. #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

this movie just keeps going huh

#monsterdon

Ed wearing the 3rd beret of the movie. Magnificent.

#Monsterdon

HOLY FUCK, I genuinely forgot that they ACTUALLY do a goddamned broadcast. LMFAOOOOO #Godzilla #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

@log

They were after the bearer bonds the whole time.

#Monsterdon

RIP Sprint #Monsterdon

Oh no those monsters have Sprint! We won't be able to contain them with that kind of national coverage. #Monsterdon

Ah ah ah! You didn’t say the magic word. #Monsterdon

@Louisa nostalgia for when nobody knew what an internet was hitting pretty hard all of a sudden

#monsterdon

I like how this movie kind of acknowledges that their "Godzilla can hide inside a building" idea was ridiculous so they had to pull out the small Godzillas.

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

@yatsu re no the answer #monsterdon

Sprint lol #godzilla1998 #monsterdon

I wonder what happened to the big practical effect baby godzilla heads? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

I think she meant intranet (ie internal internet, not really a thing anymore I think)

I could understand this now, I am told it's pretty easy to get a live stream going even from your phone, but I feel like in 1998 it would have been a lot more complicated?

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Are we jamming some Die Hard into the end of this, now, movie? Sure, why not? #Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

@Taweret C'est vrai pour moi aussi!

#Monsterdon

@cinebox

About three fiddy, same as in town

#Monsterdon

The network is on an internet!!!

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

#monsterdon pretty sure she said "the network is on an internet", oh 1998

So in this movie Godjira is a marine iguana. I just looked up baby marine iguanas and they are ADORABLE. These babies are... not. #monsterdon

Nice nod with the Alien Queen toy on the monitor.

#monsterdon #godzilla1998

The network is on an internet? Which one?
#Monsterdon

oh

now _this_ is Pure Johnny Mnemonic

#monsterdon

an INTERNET? #Monsterdon

Maybe Ferris should sing to them...

#Monsterdon

love da Rangers baybee? #monsterdon

no cameras, no one can know what the french have done #Monsterdon

"The network is on an internet"

OK, now this movie has crossed my threshold for disbelief. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🦖 🌇 🦶 😱

don't run from predators. It triggers their prey drive.

Instead, CUDDLE THEM.

That triggers their snoozle drive!

I dub this part of the Godzilla (1998) movie, "Dinosaurs in a Mall".

#monsterdon

so if broderick is gonna end up with blondie, does that mean jean reno and hank azaria are going on a date when this movie ends?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon so the French equivalent of Navy Seals just got picked off one by one even though they had machine guns, but Ferris Bueller can kick a Godzilla in the head and get away

"I know how we can get a message to the outside!" Yeah, lemme do a broadcast real quick. Lol #Godzilla1998 #Monsterdon #Godzilla

🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️

⁉️ TRIVIAZILLA 🏙️💥🦖

In the U.S. the box office was less-than-expected, but this film still made more money worldwide than any other American movie based on a foreign film, holding the record until years later.

#Godzilla1998

Did you see the respectful way those bebezillas handled that mop bucket? They respect labor. #Monsterdon

the difference between me watching this movie now vs years ago is I understand the jean Reno french lines without needing the subtitles

les dialogues ne sont pas drôles, mais je les comprends

#monsterdon

"i know how we can get a message to the outside!"

she just starts yelling really loud

#Godzilla #Godzilla1998 #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Do iguanas eat popcorn? It's a vegetable, I guess.

Whoof, that CGI is *rough* with the reflections issues.

I too design drop ceilings so that, if a section falls, it damages the electrical systems

#Monsterdon #Godzilla1998

it's weird to watch this and think about how good pretty much everything in _jurassic park_ still looks after like three decades.

#monsterdon

they're loose. I mean, they're all over the place #Monsterdon

The Godzillaraptor who got kicked by Dr. Worm will never live it down

#Monsterdon
