So the post #Monsterdon stream on @miru is like Grizzly 2 the Revenge and Charlie Sheen and George Clooney and Laura Dern just got et by a Big Bear and Kai Winn from Deep Space Nine is putting on a rock concert in the forest and it is the most WTF thing ever π€£
Wah! I was gonna say the first song sounded kinda interesting. Was trying to figure out what it was....
Well, that was...fun? Anyway, thanks for another fine evening of movie watching. See you all next week #Monsterdon
@apLundell And then also ended the film without doing anything with the hackneyed romance plot, making not just the scene with the reporter's father pointless, but the reporter HERSELF pointless!
LAYERS
@blueemu lol, how it was meant to be in the original novel.
Summary of Grizzly 1977
Gobs of people in plaid shirts and blue jeans.
No fishing, but counting boobs for girl in underwear in waterfall.
Girl pooping in woods instead of guy peeing in woods. I'll give it half a credit.
tiny cliff.
Ranger station,
Tent's destroyed.
White pickup truck.
Did miss back shot of girl running, but I'll count it as a bingo. What I didn't expect was the bear blowing up!
Great job #Monsterdon !
Store-brand Donald Sutherland
#monsterdon #grizzly2
@jonny yes me too
#monsterdon Sometimes conservation means exploding wildlife with military hardware. That's just the way things go. Could be a bear, a deer, or even your corrupt power-hungry boss. Just gotta enjoy it in the moment, knowing it's for the greater good.
i head out for two seconds and come back to bear carnage. Nice one film
#Monsterdon
If you'd like to know what a real killer bear story was like, and if you like reading Wikipedia pages, might I recommend https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sankebetsu_brown_bear_incident
(Warning for quite a few gruesome, real life bear killings from a hundred years ago including babies and the elderly)
@kcarr2015 It's a bearzooka.
#monsterdon
Moral of the story: #monsterdon
@kshernandez I mostly just feel exhausted & disappointed after an hour and a half of folksy determined rangers with strong jaws and bloody victims and a helicopter.
@diazona Grizzly 2: Electric Beargaloo?
#monsterdon
@miru
Oh my peas and carrots, they actually blew up the bear with a bazooka? π€¦ββοΈπ
@RamenCatholic That it sat in the can for almost forty years before being released should tell you something ...
#monsterdon The theme of this movie is that they had enough money to make a movie.
I'm left with mixed emotion after watching this film. #monsterdon #Grizzly1976
That was fun! Bad movies and good times. LOL!
Many thanks to @Taweret for setting all this stuff up!
#monsterdon "He's programmed like some kind of damn computer."
The B in IBM is for bear, didn't you know? This is because all computers are built on a bearnary code.
Silly idea for a better (maybe) movie: have most of it being 2-4 characters who are actively hunting the bear, and it's all about the difficulties in tracking, etc. With actual research on these things. And maybe a side on how this is different from being in Vietnam.
@diazona @miru LAURA DERN AND GEORGE CLOONEY?? #monsterdon
I have no further words for βGrizzlyβ except that it was technically a film.
#monsterdon
"Great shot, kid! That was one in a million. Now let's get out of here."
#monsterdon
@cainmark 30 to 50 wild supergrizzlies running across your yard
Haha Tubi is auto playing Snowbeast #monsterdon
#monsterdon That movie was horribilis!
That's like a door in the face. #monsterdon
Holy crap that ended abruptly. #monsterdon
does a bear shit IN THIS MOVIE?
And, like so many of its #monsterdon predecessors, Grizzly has no time for denouement. Sad harmonica over the credits is all you get.
And it justβ¦ends??
I should have stayed asleep and kept having weird nightmares about the toilet becoming detached and the bathroom flooding.
Anyway, point your browsers to https://miru.miyaku.media/ if you want to torture yourself with Grizzly 2!
the usual abrupt ending for #monsterdon fillums except no ocean to fuck off into
Thank you as always @Taweret !
If he's tired and scared, why does he need to come back out?
I think that wins most literal copy of existing movie for cash grab ever.
Scotty should have looked at the remains and been like, "Bears don't do this. Bears never had a lair like this. It's doing it for the pleasure." π¬
And now heβs 30 feet tall and can just swat them out of the sky? #Monsterdon
was really hoping they would have crashed the helicopter into the bear or something to blow it up, but sure, rocket launcher is also fine i guess
#monsterdon
Whew, this movie just lost me for big stretches. The premise made it sound more fun #Monsterdon
He did mention something about a rocket launcher before they landed, how they got one in the first place is open to questioning.
y'know if _I_ had a rocket launcher, some son of a bitch wou
annnnd ... roll credits to a harmonica
πππππ #Monsterdon
It's perfect just like that, roll credits. #Monsterdon
It was definitely a movie! That's now over!
Another #Monsterdon, in the bag.
Hope y'all had fun, too! I know I did!
YEAHHHHH!!
Bear explosion!!! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon A bazooka. Rangers used to have much better budgets and equipment..
(somber instrumental music)
I did not have "blow up the bear" on my bingo card.
(Bear chunks reform into bear)
Maybe they should have started with the grenade launcher?
This was the cheesiest death scene. But since the bear won, I'll allow it.
#Monsterdon
if this bear has also faked his own death for the gold i will poop my pants
The movie and this thread are over, as a sad tune plays us out. This is the end of a #monsterdon thread for Grizzly, a movie that is legally distinct from Jaws and I don't know why you would even bring that up.
That's a LAW, right?
I'm starting to realize where the idea for blowing up the whale came from.
#monsterdon Poor Scotty. He always smelled like peanut butter and cold cuts. All wildlife loved him. And in the end, they loved him too hard.
Okay, can someone help meβ¦
where the hell did the rocket launcher come from?
Next time lead with the bear bazooka. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976
I like how the bear just shrugs off gunfire #TeamMonster
He'll love him, and hug him, and name him George!
Dang. He squeezed the paint out of him
[lands helicopter dramatically]
what??? i-- what???
Blowed dat bear up real good
He has a rocket launcher?
Well Crap. Sorry, Scotty. You get to die twice.
Kelly keeps smiling at the most inopportune times.
This is another "Pad to feature length" film. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976
@Taweret the park manager was right the whole time and it was just a normal brown bear and a bunch of people with no survival instincts #monsterdon
Holy shit they blew up the bear. #monsterdon
If the bear chomps the helicopter before we end at least I can leave happy #TeamMonster
@msh He came back from the dead, just to turn around and get dead.
#monsterdon
Wait until that bear get 88mph and you will see serious shit
#monsterdon
A big furry computer probably running on MS-DOS. #Monsterdon
SUDDENLY, BONGOS
DO IT, BEAR. ATTACK THE HELICOPTER.
It's the Bearbot 3000! #Monsterdon
I can't tell, have we already seen this helicopter PoV shot?
#monsterdon Movie-prop moment: the walkie talkie Scotty was using looks like the same model of Motorola they used in the first Ghostbusters movie.
Welp my prophecy is busted. Scottie was supposed to save the main character. #fail #monsterdon
Scotty fails his roll to seduce the bear.
i want the bear to win against the helicopter.
#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976
A rocket launcher? That hardly seem sporting.
"and this has been Helicopter Talk, on NPR"
bear: "THE PARK IS MINE!!"
Well, there's that
WHAT
They had Scotty survive the mauling and wake up, just to get off-screen mauled again, to death??? WHAT THE FUCK
So⦠Scotty survived the first attack so he could⦠die literally one minute later.
β¦
What jackass wrote this?
Okay, let's be fair. The look on Scotty's face at the end of that scene was clearly love. He was at peace with the situation. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Holy shit they just Godfathered (bed scene) the one dry-look dude!
...and now he's being scratch buried like a loose stool
#Grizzly1976
This is the look of a man who read the script and knows that he has no more lines in it.
#monsterdon
Did Scotty dig himself out of a grave just to be put back in one, minutes later?
Scotty dies again
Iβm not sure what the point of that was
