Jet Jaguar has such an awful face #Monsterdon

This kid is really the hero of the film. #Monsterdon

why is oscar wilde here tho?

#monsterdon

that's the biggest game of Operation i've ever seen!

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

they're dropping a kid and his older brother in the ocean for like $1000k??? damn, that's some cheap stooging right there. #monsterdon

@gnomon He knows these things from living in a geology lab #monsterdon

so megalon appears to be an electric/bug type. that does put godzilla as a dragon/water type at a disadvantage but jet jaguar is a steel/electric typs so...

#monsterdon

"Brother"

Yeah sure pal, if that's what you want to think

#monsterdon

100,000 yen adjusted for inflation is about $1,500 USD.

#Monsterdon

@sean I'm convinced he was made as some kind of sex robot.

#Monsterdon

I like Jet Jaguar's theme song. #Monsterdon

Right, back to the robot antics. I love the trope of “Oh, it took us years to make a robot that walks by itself without falling over, but now it should only take a few hours to make it fly, too”. #monsterdon

And Jet Jag-u-ar fucks off into the sky.

#Monsterdon

Mega mega Meglon! Um wake up. Dude. It's after noon. You gotta get outta bed honey. It's time to rise up and destroy our enemies.
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

"We're in some sort of metal box!"

My god, those bastards mean to turn a handle and force us to spring out of the hatch! #Monsterdon

Why are his ears spatulas, tho'?

#monsterdon

y'all are cracking me up. i am cackling so much rn 🤣 🤣 🤣 #monsterdon

Whenever one of the kaiju wake up the first thing they want to do is dance

#monsterdon
#GodzillaVsMegalon

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT FOLEY ON HIS HEAD HITTING THE GROUND. WHAT. IT SOUNDED LIKE A TIN OF COFFEE.

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

bug/psychic type
#MONSTERDON

The underwater people are pissed off about the brightly colored paddle boats I'm pretty sure #monsterdon

That's how bugs fly, right? Straight up without flapping their wings?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon this is the plot of aquaman

Do you want giant drill roaches? Because that's how you get giant drill roaches. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Seatopia sounds like an extremely unsuccessful Fruitopia spinoff. #Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Seatopia has some fancy duds. #monsterdon #GodzillavsMegalon

This is how I get up in the morning too. #Monsterdon

“After 3 million years of peace, we have to fight. We don’t want to, but the humans give us no choice, since they built nuclear weapons.”

Maybe you could have spent the last 500,000 years ensuring humans didn’t build nuclear weapons.

#Monsterdon

the cone hat dancing is hypnotizing #monsterdon

See what you did?
Seatopia has been pushed too far. #monsterdon

Megalon GET UP YOU BUM!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon White leggings and boots after Labor Day? How gauche.

He's a bit hairy for a sea creature

#monsterdon

Declaring war to bring about peace, typical fascist dictator tbh #monsterdon

We have fashion! And interpretive dance!
#Monsterdon
#godzillavsmegalon

If I was tripping on acid, and a gay man, this is the trip I’d take. #Monsterdon

Looks like a guy who was rejected from 1970s porn tryouts. #monsterdon

♪To war!~ To war!~ Seatopia's going to war!~♫ #Monsterdon

#monsterdon
Who is Japanese Jimmy Fallon talking to? Easter Island? Wacky dancers?
What is going on?

This is exactly how I would envision a place called "Seatopia"

#monsterdon

"Awaken Megalon" he said to his penis

#monsterdon

We pray to you, O Holy Ikea Lamp #Monsterdon

What is with the interior design? Floating boxes, chains, ships wheels as I dunno coat racks, you name it #monsterdon #GodzillavsMegalon

Aw man, not liturgical dance :/ #Monsterdon

@Infoseepage At least the Jaguar part matches its uncanny catlike grace #monsterdon

Dude WHAT is even going on in this movie it just keeps escalating lmao #monsterdon

What even is with Seatopia's costumes?

#monsterdon

I'm assuming these must be non-lethal weapons or this movie just took a WILD twist #monsterdon

Tiny motorcycle, no helmet, no adult supervision - Japan as depicted in 1973 was a running-with-scissors society in many ways.

#Monsterdon

Oh wow, interpretative dance as well!

#monsterdon

Jet Jaguar! Evasive maneuvers!

...Jet Jaguar takes one step to the left

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon was that scene the jenesis of jet jaguar

OH GOD did that kid on the mini bike just get doored by the villains!? He just can't catch a break in this film, damn!

You know, I always wondered why he was called Jet Jaguar. Now I know why: they decided to call it Jet Jaguar. #monsterdon

@blogdiva also the statues are probably not 3 million years old!

#monsterdon

goddamn drivers always dooring cyclists and speeding off

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Tracking in deep sea sand makes it sound like they were attacked by human sized kaiju.

#monsterdon

EUREKA!

WE"VE CREATED A ROBOT THAT CAN DO THE ROBOT.

SCIENCE IS COMPLETE!

#monsterdon

"I'll call him Jet Jaguar!"

You will? ...Why? #Monsterdon

@strangefour Hm. Well, the movie does exhibit a certain malaise. #Monsterdon

🗿🗿🗿🗿 #monsterdon

They built a robot. In the "geology lab". As you do.😂

I love this movie

#Monsterdon

Mecha Jimmy Carter is complete!
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Only in Japan does a motorcycle get that miniaturized

#monsterdon

So that’s where they keep all the Hondas. #Monsterdon

Oh, good. They found Jet Jaguar's head.

#monsterdon

Is this going to be “iron man but instead of knockoff Elon musk it’s a Japanese gay dad” because that sounds pretty good actually #monsterdon

Subtitles say

"Geology lab"

with the sarcasm quotes

#Monsterdon

this is no EARTH vicks cough drops!

#monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

This kid’s voice is breaking me up #monsterdon

Okay, it’s a gay family home, not a villain’s lair. Don’t sniff or eat the powder. #monsterdon

Meanwhile, groovy flute car chase.

"...looks like sand"
"but tastes like paprika!"

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Weird interior design choice. Just dangling cubes with pictures of cars on them.

#monsterdon

Only the Olds will recognize that that car is REALLY WonderBug. #monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Dude, your DANGER light is on. Shouldn't you, like check something? Or is that just a novelty danger light? #monsterdon

Loving the “Chekov’s headless robot”, though. #monsterdon

the 70s in japan were so 80s

#Monsterdon

They stole Jet Jaguar's head?

#monsterdon
#GodzillaVsMegalon

"Oh, I'll go off chasing the bad guys and you stay home and play with sand.....again"

#monsterdon

The fashion, the fish bicycle thing, the car, the brightly-colored pocket doors, the weird hanging photo blocks… this is a 1970s that I apparently missed. #monsterdon

Why didn’t Chitty Chitty Bang Bang get proper billing in this film? #monsterdon

🦖 #MONSTERDON 🎞️

🚨 LOOKOUT 🚨

👀 Note when the red sand is being tested by scientists.

Look for a sign that says "Honda Labs". It is a tribute to Ishiro Honda, the director of the *good* Godzilla films.

#GodzillaVsMegalon

This bachelor pad is the most hilarious 70s brutalist nonsense.
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

#Monsterdon I absolutely love the way a chop to the back immediately disables someone and renders them unconscious. Imagine my disappointment as a child when it did not work on my siblings or cousins.

They escaped in the foley van! After them! #Monsterdon

I'd kick his ass for wearing that outfit, too. #monsterdon

there is just a kind of '70s grooviness about this one that i can't resist #Monsterdon

"...why is your arcade full of henchmen?"
"No idea, but one of them left a lego!"

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

Excellent vehicles so far.

#monsterdon

@Lazarou The monster here is intolerance #monsterdon

Meanwhile the 3rd Doctor is running after these two, trying to get his car back...

#monsterdon

@Lazarou I'm going to see if I can maintain the belief that same-gender pairing is the norm in this timestream, not the exception #monsterdon

#monsterdon Do they ever explain whose kid that is?

Does he belong to one of the scientists? Or does he just hang out with them?

low tide? #monsterdon

@Bluedepth I think that's a real thing - liquefaction - but it would probably be giving the filmmakers too much credit to assume they put it in intentionally

#Monsterdon

they are really spending on fx on this first 10 minutes! thisis going to be a good kaiju movie
#monsterdon

Somebody flushed the lake ...

#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

#Monsterdon how convenient that the child's two dads were carrying the lightest rope ever

This is a lot of exploding water for the total lack of a monster popping up out of it

#Monsterdon

ROOOOOOOOOOOXAAAAANNE~
You don't have to put on the red light ~
#Monsterdon #GodzillaVsMegalon

aw, RIP dolphin paddle boat. #monsterdon
