Perhaps Jet Jaguar can be controlled with more egalitarian commands

#GodzillaVsMegalon
#monsterdon

...they would be dead in that metal box. #monsterdon

@Taweret zombie kid and zombie husband

never made that sequel tho'

too grim

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Megalon is by far the most human-in-a-suit Godzilla monster I've seen, and almost twenty years into the franchise too. I'm impressed.

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

I see they have different physics in 197x Japan #monsterdon

The container toss is pure cinema.
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

How much head trauma has this kid had in 1 day?

#Monsterdon

like that fall was not survivable. they're dead

#monsterdon

It's just a scratch. They'll walk it off.
#Monsterdon
#godzillavsmegalon

Every time Megalon makes an appearance I keep being surprised ee isn't a giant shark.

That's what I get for misreading the movie's title as Godzilla vs. Megalodon I guess...

#Monsterdon

Mwahaha #Monsterdon

Right now the little robot fella is just irritating Megalon, I hope nothing wildly implausible happens to even things out.....

#monsterdon

@ricci But we we're still going to dump this container into the dam like he paid us to -- deal's a deal!

#Monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow #physics #GodzillaVsMegalon
#monsterdon

They really said "so yeah we got this whole pool filled on the set we're just going to dump it all on the back of you and push you across the sound stage"

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMagalon

I ... what? #monsterdon

If only he had hands instead of drills, he could have just grabbed the truck.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon F never equals ma in Kaiju movies.

Dam fine cup of Megalon. Dam fine.
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

HOME RUN! Seatopia are up 3-2

#Monsterdon

WAT #monsterdon

There is NO WAY those two would still be alive. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

I think they spent their entire budget on that dam collapse. Really well done.

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

oh no. they died

#monsterdon

Oh my goodness that poor actor in the megalon suit

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMagalon

sir, just turn the car on and drive away. -- uh, whoops. #monsterdon

Sweet toss by the bug!
Sweet freedom!
#Monsterdon

I can relate to the guys inside the metal box trying to understand what the hell is happening outside

#GodzillaVsMegalon
#monsterdon

@rberlim they don't want to throw the exception, while in the container? #NerdSnort #Monsterdon

so much floating concrete!

#monsterdon

Megalon's not the brightest beetle on the tree. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Megalon is clearly weak to Water-type attacks. #Monsterdon

Oh man those two would be paste inside that shipping container when it landed

#Monsterdon

finally, kaiju doing stuff and models getting wrecked

#monsterdon

They did the water effects pretty well in this, and that's genuinely hard. Waters and miniatures are just nightmares.

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

What's Megalon even *doing*!?

(Is he....is he peeing in there?)

#monsterdon

Giant Bug is all CANNONBALL!! Into the water

#Monsterdon

He should have driven the car up those stairs.

#Monsterdon

EAT LIBERTY #monsterdon #GodzillavsMegalon #HellDivers2

Hooray, Megalon smash!

#Monsterdon

Awesome dam miniature. Surely nothing bad will happe—

#Monsterdon

convenient that Jinkawa-san known how to operate the truck. #monsterdon

And it seemed like the home video license was lost or something cause it got released by dozens of different companies on VHS over decades.
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Did I miss a beat while I was trying to remember "freakin it sensitive style" why are they dumping this child and his emotional support adult in the lake again? #monsterdon

what the hell, they are still throwing the cointainer? Why???
#monsterdon

While I was cooking, I had the English dub on because I could understand what was going on (at least inasmuch as the English dialogue usually rewrites the events at least a little)

Then switched over to the sub once I could put eyes on the screen. What a difference, unsurprisingly.

The actress who voices Rokuro in particular does some *wild* acting in the English dub.

#Monsterdon

listen, dude has a better fit that you, you better do what he says. #monsterdon

#monsterdon The Seatopians are just going to yeet Goro and his bro off a bridge, crate and all‽

Oh, no, apparently not, because: Megalon. Interrupting. Rude.

Megalon dambuster cannonball, I guess? #monsterdon

Looking forward to all of this miniature military equipment imploding and/or exploding - just ploding, in general

#monsterdon

Oh. Dam. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Megalon: "Hey, you, over there! Got any extra paper?"

#monsterdon

There's always time for a quick bath.

#Monsterdon

It's a giant bug taking a bath!

#Monsterdon

"...we seem to have misplaced your Pod..."

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Megalon was the kaiju movie I saw the most as a kid. It was just on TV ALL THE TIME. Atleast once a month it seemed it was on some Saturday monster movie show with or without Elvira hosting.
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Oh my god, they killed the guy throwing him out of the truck!
#monsterdon

@diazona @RamenCatholic Referring to the truck pinup poster I think #monsterdon

#monsterdon Monster! May I have a ride please?

Oh good, they're bringing the masers out right away. I thought they were going to try using purely conventional weapons on a giant monster yet again.

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

#GerryAnderson would at least have some atomic-powered rescue rockets

F A B!

#Monsterdon

@Louisa got some really good wwaaaaahh on the way down too!

#monsterdon

Those two guys just threw that man away like garbage. #Monsterdon

Great so far. I haven't been posting since I was putting the finishing touches¹ on some pasta.

Soundtrack continues to deliver and I'm back to attention just in time for the obligatory HUTHUTHUTHUT JSDF sequence. Surely the masers will do the trick *this* time.

¹ doing almost the entire recipe including most of the prep

#Monsterdon

and now the container goes off after him, i guess. #monsterdon

Oh that definitely killed him :turtleFallIntoHole:

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMagalon

Jet Jaguar and Megalon are having a showdown on who is the more annoying flyer #monsterdon

Seatopia did not send it's best and brightest for it's above ground operation. That dude in the container truck was flat dumb. #monsterdon

@DinosaurRobo but are they the special masers the _____ masers?! #Monsterdon

@BsCreativeLife Rumour is Seatopia is full of seamen

#Monsterdon

meanwhile, in a better movie

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

at least we know these drivers are good at throwing things out of trucks #monsterdon

Japan Defence Force has better theme music than Megalon. Unfair! #monsterdon

haven't we watched excatly this same evacuation on our last Godzilla movie?
#monsterdon

@trixter Touché #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Chop to the back! Taht's right! Stupid Shakespeare hair villains.

Sayonnara, sucker. Too bad he doesn't explode a Pinto #Monsterdon

#monsterdon lofi beats to roll toy tanks to. We did another Godzilla movie that did that didn't we (TripHop military rollout in a 60's film)?

Damn that had to hurt
#monsterdon

Megalon lands, IMMEDIATELY CALLS FOR A DANCE OFF #monsterdon #GodzillavsMegalon

Whoa, what's with this power guitar industrial beat going on here. Good one for freakin it in the club sensitive style. #monsterdon

Woot! We have ✅ Masers ⚡️⚡️⚡️

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonBingo

bwahahahahahahah rasputin! oh no! RIP bwahahaha

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon *meanwhile*, the robot and the kaiju finally meet

There are a LOT of pistol-whippings in this movie. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon Oh, 1960s Rasputin didn't expect that roll down the hill!

Yes! Sweet ass miniatures. #Monsterdon

Ugh, #roku technical problems. Just joined. What'd I miss?

#Monsterdon

@RamenCatholic uhh are we watching the same movie? 😅

#Monsterdon

"and now, we return to Herbie's Great Adventure..." #monsterdon #godzillavsmegalon

I knew Honda motorcycles of the period were sturdy, but this is ridiculous. #monsterdon #GodzillavsMegalon

MASERS!

Ooh, bringing in the masers early. I’m sure they’ll be effective.

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

@ramsey Its purpose was to provide a chase scene.

#Monsterdon

@Taweret They probably couldn't get a license for Yakkety Sax #monsterdon

That poster in the cab of the truck is keeping our #Monsterdon boobies ratio in the positive.

(amazing miniatures tho, srsly cool) #monsterdon

Well, there's one less seaman
#Monsterdon

They managed to sneak in some nudity on the back wall of the truck cab! #Monsterdon

Oh boy my favorite part, imminent scale model destruction 😁

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMagalon

I like the beetle #monsterdon
