Are they uploading him to the internet? #Monsterdon
Pride Godzilla! #Monsterdon
Where's the Flux Capacitor?
Additional #Monsterdon Takes:
I want to see biologists have to classify three headed giant kaijus into existing clades.
The scary UFO has an interesting glowing sandwich design. its sort of like a Cylon basestar with a glowy center bit.
Today's #Monsterdon starts in the futuristic year 2004, where a tiny submarine is inspecting disused Dungeons and Dragons miniatures beneath the ocean.
Before being minted by Ral Partha, some ominous voices inform us that these miniatures were once a terrifying CGI ROYAL ROBEAST!
Then a UFO travels back to the 90s for some reason; probably to either drop off a monster or admire early web design trends. The music tells us that this is a scary UFO.
Bad English dubbing over bad English acting. This is choice. #GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon the acting in this is just excellent
did they hire like, every single english speaker they could find for this movie? #monsterdon
Little known fact, Godzilla started out as a trained and certified lumberjack. #Monsterdon
Miss Emmy and the Android M11? Hmm a robot man. HMMM.
(Terminator 2 came out the year before.)
"He's a robot"
"But he looks just like a man."
No he looks just like Arnold Rimmer.
#Monsterdon
"Get 'em? That was plan? GET 'EM?!" #monsterdon
Getting a late start on #Monsterdon because I can't ever start or finish a monster movie within the agreed upon time frame.
Excited about the godzillas though.
All of time and space and their plan was to land in a war zone?
They should just go to Victorian London like a normal time traveler. #monsterdon
...major speilberg? is this an actual reference? #monsterdon
Major Spielberg! LOL!
Back in WW2, officers would routinely stand on deck and provide exposition.
#monsterdon
#monsterdon SPEILBERG??? ZING!
Tom Baker's gonna come screaming outta that effect at any second >_> #Monsterdon
"...time warp"
"It's just a jump to the left..."
They're going to pass Tom Baker going in the other direction. #GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
"They sense our feelings through microwave impulses!"
We invented an animal that microwaves your brain so that it can tell how terrified you are right before your grey matter boils! They're so cute! #Monsterdon
so this is a Doctor Who story? #Monsterdon
#monsterdon LET'S DO THE TIME WARP AGAIN!
I love it when this happens. It's one of my favorite parts of #monsterdon
A #Monsterdon bingo :D
#Monsterdon I snap my fingers when I'm right too
Now he doesn't HAVE to write the book! What a time saver!
Yep, that's yer problem right therr.
That's a jinyouwine Godziller, that's whatcher dealin wit.
"...I'm Wilson. This is my brother Wilson, and my other brother Wilson."
Is it supposed to be surprising that Godzilla might be a dinosaur? Nobody thought of that?
That is one advanced air fryer, yep #monsterdon
Starting #monsterdon late on 1.5x speed again :/ Pretty timely starting out with that submersible scene. Anyway, see you all at 9:30 when I drop out of warp!
jesus lady you could kill a man with that remote #monsterdon
#monsterdon anti-nuclear bacteria sounds useful.
it went wild, okay? three martinis in and suddenly he was a completely different dinosaur! #monsterdon
opening with a submarine because #monsterdon is nothing if not topical
"...wait a second, that's not the Titanic"
He's been snacking on minisubs I'm pretty sure #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Okay so maybe my Godzilla Grip (TM) prediction was wrong and the plan was to just drop him somewhere... like the angels dropping people at the end of Dogma?
However, that plan was partly foiled by dinosaur lasers and now an Undead Godzilla will return?
#Monsterdon I'm not totally sure why future girl Emi likes the Shirtless Writer Guy, especially since he's Disappointingly Shirted most of the time. Seems to be a Forced Romance Subplot.
Special #monsterdon post-lude browsing whosampled
Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah was famously sampled at length in MF Doom's Beef Rapp (RIP):
https://youtu.be/NcHrGCcXU74
and layer in his whole sideproject King Geedorah
https://youtu.be/6u-JL-nNgJo
and that gets picked up and combined with other ppl sampling from cartoons like CZARFACE, who later did two albums with doom, eg.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pUl67orRImg
and also you can't hear the godzilla theme without hearing Simon Says (when then itself gets sampled everywhere):
https://youtu.be/T7Fy5w2klbg
anyway i just couldn't not hear it the whole way through that movie lmao
#Monsterdon for largely unclear reasons, the JSDF appears to have those lasers that the Galactic Republic's Clone Army had on the battle of Geonosis and is using them to try to shoot at Godzilla.
@apLundell My God, what greatness did I just miss? #MonsterDon
#Monsterdon among all the radiation that Godzilla ate was a radioactive alka seltzer table that created lots of foam.
Goodnight Godziller fans.
#Monsterdon
Godzilla nap time.
NAP TIME OVER!!
#GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
@Taweret Destroya is probably my favorite. Just a perfect storm of Kaiju. #GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
Here's a thought: next time you kill Godzilla, deposit the body in, like, the Gobi desert, or Death Valley, or the Sahara, or the driest, remotest part of Australia's outback you can find.
Just sayin'!
I’m curious. What is #monsterdon?
I’m seeing posts about monster movies - is the aim to rewatch old monster films together and comment? Because that sounds fun.
Ghidorah, "Oh no. Not again."
#GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
@strangefour Fifteen yards and loss of down #monsterdon
that one is for sure in my top five godzilla movies along with gojira, shin godzilla, final wars and godzilla vs destoroyah
Lovely to see a movie with good old practical effects (for the most part), including that fabulous gold lamé King Ghidorah #monsterdon
#Monsterdon this script was possibly written as part of a philosophy class final exam that asked students to write an ethical dilemma using several interconnected trolley problems, which naturally escalated to include androids, UFOs and Godzilla.
ending with a very George Lucas "was flirty but we're family" revelation
Thanks for another delightful #Monsterdon @Taweret
BEHOLD! MECHA KING GHIDORAH!!
Only a decade or so after the idea was first conceived.
#GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
No kings were harmed in the making of this movie. #Monsterdon
@moira Maybe it's up to Gamera #monsterdon
Good game everybody, see you next week. Thanks again @Taweret for running as always! #monsterdon
I can see that this was a polarizing movie, so let's all take a deep breath before we toot anything we're going to regret #monsterdon
have a nice week, everybody. remember to carry the spirit of this movie with you into the work week. do whatever the hell you want and let the editing department do with it what they will! #monsterdon
Wow that's easily my favorite godzilla movie yet.
My Review: 5/5
"what"
Who could’ve predicted he had a fiery breath? #monsterdon
You know, I'm sick of these movies having all the fun. It's MY turn to fuck off into the sea. >_> #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon It is revealed that Japan being destroyed was a lie, and future japan actually BUYS WHOLE CONTINENTS. This outcome doesn't sound all that great to me either.
I'd probably be okay with Japan buying Antarctica or something, but not Africa or South America. A lot of people like live there and probably don't want to be a Japanese colony.
Another amazing #Monsterdon in the can!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
This one had a little bit of everything.
* Time traveling megalomaniacs.
* A robot powered by Apple's new M-11 chip.
* Furry little future critters that turn into a giant monster.
* Masers!
* Hangry Godzilla.
* Not one, but two evacuations.
* Mecha King Ghidorah!
* Godzilla clamping action!
You can't keep a good kaiju down! Thanks again everyone! That one was bonkers fun! Thanks @Taweret for hosting! #GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
Godziller had a wakeup timer set #monsterdon
@KanaMauna It's not a real claw prize game because prizes were actually clawed. #monsterdon
That was super fun! G'night everybody! :blobcat_party: #Monsterdon
The staring contest between a businessman and Godzilla.
Man loses even though Godzilla blinked first.
#GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
How long do I have to pose for these credits? #Monsterdon
Emi just knowingly hitting on her ancestor this whole movie. #monsterdon
so basically godzilla automatically fucks off into the sea on contact with salt water, okay #Monsterdon
LAST MINUTE INCEST!?!?! #Monsterdon
"Distant ancestor...? Then that means... I'm gonna get laid!" #Monsterdon
So Mecha Ghidorah has a trailer hitch, big deal? #Monsterdon
King Mechaghidorah #monsterdon
Into the sea! #Monsterdon
@apLundell but data shows Ghidorahs can survive wing damage! #monsterdon
No seatbelts in the 23rd century - definitely the Star Trek universe #monsterdon
#Monsterdon at 50:23 Shirtful Writer Guy again reverts to his prior state of Shirtless Writer Guy.
@brion
Sequals!
Too bad they didn't armor the wings. The very weak point Godziller exploited last time! #monsterdon
Bio-Ghidorah and Robo-Ghidorah both seem to have mild antigravity powers, not enough to hover but they fall very slowly #monsterdon
#Monsterdon Not exactly impressed with "We'll give you plans to make a new Japan". Like, I dunno, it seems people live in the Old Japan now; like can you just lead Ghidorah out over the sea?
Also not impressed with the lady who brought an invasive genetically engineered species to the past.
Maximum carnage + Godzilla theme == Sweet Spot. #GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
@aburka @Kinetograph @Taweret Men have to ruin everything #monsterdon
Oh that shot looks familiar.
It's maser time! And the suit actor falling into a hold and almost dying. So they left it in the film. As stunt work goes that's how ya do it.
#Monsterdon
@moira wait hold up that was also the building the emi just blew up #monsterdon
she's looking for the [SWORD] button #monsterdon
@Zerofactorial Even has cup holders. #GodzillavsKingGhidorah #Monsterdon
@Zerofactorial @Kinetograph @Taweret they, like, *almost* talked to each other when they made the plan to bring Ghidorah back from the future, but there was also a man in the convo #monsterdon #bechdeltest
I can't get past how much Mecha Ghidorah's pilot housing looks like a Power Rangers thing. #Monsterdon
@Zerofactorial and symmetry continues to be preserved. they should've given king gidorah shoulder pads to emphasise it. #monsterdon
