omg that little paddleboat is adorable.

#monsterdon

Oh no! Not the soda!

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

I would shove this child in the sea to ride the dolphin jetski #monsterdon

OMG! I want that paddle boat! #Monsterdon

Godzilla vs pointier katakana kaiju!
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Keep paddling!

He'll be here in about an hour.

#Monsterdon

fuck yeah weird dolphin boat #monsterdon

#Monsterdon personally if i were arranging north pacific nuclear tests i would relocate them to the south pacific specifically to avoid disturbing monster island

Any else longing for the refined dignity that was Scootypuff Jr.?

#monsterdon

holy hell, that suit! A+++ #monsterdon

@flowerpot Sounds about right!

#Monsterdon

Oh Daddy, I love this jam.🎶
#Monsterdon
#godzillavsmegalon

I'm actually watching #monsterdon tonight.
I haven't watched this since the early 90s when someone gave me a bootleg review tape.

We call this boat design "Puke Master VI" #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

@diazona yeah I fast-forwarded through the credits (assuming those were just credits) #monsterdon

70s movie soundtracks were built different. Looking forward to more of this, I hope

#Monsterdon

Less than 5 minutes in and we already have the best transportation invented by mankind

#monsterdon

That thing barely functions as a mode of transport

#Monsterdon

4/5 this explosion has a beat you can dance to. #monsterdon

I mean don't you always go to the beach with your life-rope gun?

#monsterdon

oh god the paddleboat :/ #Monsterdon

those paddle thing always look like fun but they are not

#monsterdon

If Kaiju Western was a music genre ...

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

@Julie
Yes. 😺

I think it's both--anything you want to say about the movie goes!
#monsterdon

oh yeah, the music. F yeah.

#monsterdon

did i just see a credit for Robot Dunham??? #monsterdon

this really is the AM radio mix of this theme music isn't it

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Not quite sure to make of the opening title music - seems like it can't decide between early 70s garage rock/bubblegum pop vs. Souza march?

#monsterdon

Love this jaunty countryside cycling music we're getting over the images of the fury of nature. #monsterdon

Unfortunately, the nuke they were intending to test was replaced with fireworks #monsterdon

#monsterdon "MUSIC BY RIICHIRO MANABE" hmmm good effort I suppose

Okay, the no subbing of on-screen text thing gets a little annoying when we hit a long stretch of what I can only assume are the credits. #monsterdon

Dolphin boat!!
#Monsterdon

Godzilla has been growing fat cotton on far away Monster Island.
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

@Julie

YES!

#Monsterdon

@Julie Eh, whatever you're feeling in the moment. #Monsterdon

It's a Summer Megalon of Love tonight on #monsterdon

#monsterdon Lots if stuff blowing up on my TV. Cut to kid on a floatie.

What's the turtle-dog's name again? I want to say Guillaume

#Monsterdon

Awww yeah.. Hit me with that acid jazz guitar. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

#Monsterdon #godzillavsmegalon
lotta booms

This film goes straight away to the kaiju, not even a full minute in. #Monsterdon

Sunny beach music! OF DESTRUCTION! #Monsterdon

Asuka Island, get in the robot!

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

So who wants to critique the "nuclear" explosion?

It doesn't look right, but I'm not a weapons expert...

#Monsterdon

The Aleutians are an American chain of islands that are part of Alaska. They're the only part of the US to have been invaded by Axis powers during WWII.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon i love that monster island legitimately exists in-universe and is named that

Very nuclear

#monsterdon

So. Many. Explosions. #monsterdon

"...can you make the disaster faster?"
"Well, we can speed up the tape, but that will..."
"Yeah, yeah, do that!"

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Okay my first #Monsterdon ! I have no idea what is going on. Are we sarcastic or serious about this?

y'know criterion if this is the best you could do for sound i gotta have some words with your audio people

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

It just started and I'm already confused.
#Monsterdon

Sparklers! Yay!

#Monsterdon

Godzilla just standing there yelling at the earthquake like that helps #Monsterdon

Godzilla over acting. #Monsterdon

This is your brain on climate change

#Monsterdon

That’s not a nice way to treat an island. Gojira and friends are ticked. #monsterdon

Taco Tuesday on Monster Island. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

WHOA *multiple* monster sightings in the first minute

I like this already

#Monsterdon

Watching the sub here - because I haven't watched these films subbed before and I'm trying to brush up on my Japanese.

But I'll miss the extra cheese!

#monsterdon

We've got Toho movie sign!
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

I guess monsters don't like loud noises...

#monsterdon
#GodzillaVsMegalon

Aaaand we’re off! As is sometimes the case, the subtitles aren’t subtitling on-screen text, so I assume that was just production logo stuff. Now we’re testing nuclear weapons on Monster Island, which is, honestly, a name that should have set off warning signs. #monsterdon

We did it. We released the monsters. It was us.

#GodzillaVsMegalon
#monsterdon

Rodan cameo. Saweet. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon OK first of all, gasoline explosions do not look at all like nuclear explosions,,,

JESUS YOU CLOWNS WHO TOOTED IN HERE?

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

I think I may have accidentally turned on the classic Monty Python sketch "How Not To Be Seen." #monsterdon

#Monsterdon and we have dinosaur Muppets

#monsterdon is the Toho jingle music a new one for this movie? I thought we were gonna get House of Pain for a second...

I mean - to me, that looks a lot like "above ground"

#Monsterdon

Less than a minute in and we've got giant explosion #1 #monsterdon

It's a bold move padding the film in the first five minutes. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Let's gooooooooo

#monsterdon

Explosions and landslides in the first 30 seconds, good sign

#monsterdon

And here's two unsuccessful encyclopedia salesmen. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

RIP that island

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon janus films, you two-faced bastard. i love you

"This is what happened!"

...So the underground nuclear test was a gasoline and fireworks explosion? #Monsterdon

@yatsu Everyone deserves a little #Monsterdon

Or a giant #Monsterdon as the case may be

That is NOT what happened. #Monsterdon

asuka fucking exploded #monsterdon

Why do I have to watch pre-roll ads on #max now? #monsterdon

@bunnyhero oh yeah. definitely. xD

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

I might post commentary on Godzilla vs Megalon in tonight’s #monsterdon
Might get wrapped up in the movie. Mute or follow the hashtag as it moves you.

(i am watching the subbed version, so stay tuned for confused typings (^_^) ) #monsterdon

i'm watching the dub #monsterdon

Ah, the mark of quality. #Monsterdon

Toho! Mercator Projection! Nuclear Testing! We're in for a good 'un tonight!

#monsterdon

WE HAVE TOHO SIGN

#monsterdon

Unusually shrill opening this time. #Monsterdon

Oh dang, this is Criterion Collection? #monsterdon

@nhgeek Same! I am eager

#Monsterdon

Toho! Let’s go! #Monsterdon

TOHO TIME #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon it begins...

The Toho logo is the cosmic opposite of American International. We got movie sign!!! #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon
