Are we finally meeting the child protagonist promised by the opening score? #monsterdon

He wants him to eat his sandwich outside so the bear can get him. #monsterdon

Large bnuuy. Is it a lunar one?

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

Robert you stay close now.

Not close enough.

#monsterdon

oh child go out and play in the open garden where the bear is totally not. Mummy loves you, she says whilst basting the wee one in honey
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon This bear is circle-strafing! We're boned!

You Urus Euripidus trousers you Urus a menda deeze trousers. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

Oh my gosh that's a cute bear! But not for pats, unfortunately.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

#Monsterdon 🐻 🧸 🐻‍❄️ 🐻 💞 😱

Bunny???

Oh no, not a bunny AND a blond tot!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Will the bear kill the cute kid or his mom. Oh. Looks like maybe both.

NUGGETS

#monsterdon #Grizzly1976

bunny!

#Monsterdon

oh that's bear bait, right there.

#monsterdon

I do want that Only You Can Prevent Forest Fire bear desk top figure TBH
#monsterdon

Dang! They can pull focus! Maybe the only time in this movie, too. #monsterdon

Oh, the war comments. Amen. #monsterdon.

If that bear was alive now it'd be full of PFAS #Monsterdon

Will it be the boy, the rabbit, or the mom?
My bet. All three!
#Monsterdon

Smokey the Bear statuette on the desk. Class.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

oh hey did he finally get drunk
#monsterdon

Funny seeing this juxtaposed against Teddy attacking a watchtower

#BearFeed #Monsterdon

@diazona It's worth a try.
#Monsterdon

We're only an hour in? This a lotta movie.

#Monsterdon #Grissly1976

Up yaws!

… with JAWS.

#Monsterdon

"Up yours"

Oo sick burn.
#Monsterdon

Macho postering tops catching killer bears.

Just crushed? Not even eaten by the bear? #Monsterdon

This guy really tried to go for a freaking Oscar. I hope "Up... yours" was in his highlight reel. #monsterdon

I want them to see the fine clean job we’re doing at the RFK department of h- I mean forest management office

#monsterdon
#Grizzly

@amyfou Only GenX can see that. And we are dying over here! 🤣
#monsterdon

🐻🩸 TRIVIA BEAR 🐻😱

"Teddy," the Kodiak bear used for filming did get little grumpy because production ran into quality hibernation time.

Worse, they tempted him with large fish to do trick, then only gave him a small fish as a reward. He figured out this ruse and once moved in a blur for 30 feet toward the camera, stood up and grabbed the big fish off a pole.

Don't mess with Teddy.

#Grizzly

@SordidAmok To be fair, a WW2 rifle is as old in 1976 as a G-36 is in 2025.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

"nice dark brown plastic offices" it's the 70s, all right #monsterdon

#monsterdon I want to show them the clean, capable job we're capable of. YOU'RE KIDDING!!

how is his hand blonde AND greasy?
#Monsterdon

Feeling for a pulse with leather gloves on

#monsterdon

see, it was a dark brown plastic office in the 70s, because everything was brown...

#monsterdon

Me at work next year: "Well you just lost your office because because when I finish with you there won't be anyone there to shake your sweaty, bloody hand!"

#Monsterdon

I also don't care if you get the grizzly tbf

#Monsterdon

We don’t need to close the beach. Let’s get more people in the theater of murderation #monsterdon

Maybe you can send the reporters out to catch the bear

#Monsterdon

Uh oh!! #monsterdon #CanIPetDatDawg

More reporters than animals? I take it he's not counting insects.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

That was so Naked Gun. “That man was a hero. Send flowers to his bitches and hoes” #Monsterdon

Coca-Cola ad there
#monsterdon

Need a FBI profiler to profile the bear. #Monsterdon

Coca-Cola: For Highly Intelligent Beasts #monsterdon

Coke product placement.

#monsterdon

Weird pet peeve of mine: it makes me crazy when people point to things with their pinkies for like no reason.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

scotty trying to be brad pitt over here with the constant sandwich.

#monsterdon

Great, *psychic* prehistoric grizzly.

#monsterdon #grizzly1976

Maximum Ursinedrive

#monsterdon

Dude: Is there anything I can do?
Kelly: No, he had a family.

What was this guy going to do, posthumously marry him??

#Monsterdon

I don't know if it's because I saw so much 70s TV in reruns in the 80s or what, but a lot of bad 70s movies feel like TV to me

#Monsterdon

@Configures I would tell you why I would ask that question except Mastodon posts are very discoverable.

#monsterdon

A herd of Grizzlys?

#Monsterdon #Grissly1976

Kid and his rabbit are getting eaten, aren't they. #monsterdon

Trivia: the grizzly is being played by a Kodiak bear named Teddy (who was actually 11 ft. tall) #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

I figure he has a base of operations, somehwere around here. #Monsterdon

ooff, that child was savaged!

and now the subtitles are out of whack, that's how savage!

#Monsterdon

Scotty eating sandwich joke never gets old

#monsterdon
#Grizzly

OH COME ON, that dude was obviously breathing. #Monsterdon

@CardboardRobot "Okay, I guess."

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

Denim guy is disappointed that he didn’t get to see bear vore

#monsterdon

this tower segment originally came from the cartoon, so you couldn't shoot or bite anyone directly, you had to have something fall down on them instead.

#monsterdon #Grizzly1976

bears can totally climb trees. the bear did that to compromise enemy intel lines and send a message that infrastructure attacks are on the table #monsterdon

Dude! Now is not the time to pee!

#monsterdon #grizzly1976

So… the bear knew exactly which 2x4 to knock out to take down the tower

I didn't realize bears got architecture degrees. I learned something new today.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

I am a professional so I'm going to feel for this guy's pulse in the wrong place. With gloves on. #monsterdon

What’s that old saying again? “How can you tell what sort of bear is chasing you? Climb up into a ranger tower. If it’s a black bear, it’ll walk awal. If it’s a brown bear, it’ll climb the ladder. If it’s a grizzly, it’ll knock the whole tower down.” #monsterdon

"I hear you have a pic a nic basket!"
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🐻 🧸 🐻‍❄️ 🐻 💞 😱

I sure hope that was as fun for Teddy as it looked like it was fun for Teddy

The rabbit is in league with the bear

#Monsterdon

YES!
Man: 0
Grizzly: (I lost count.)
#Monsterdon

@Lazarou nope. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976 bear has levelled up in: FALLING DAMAGE

Think the tower collapsing killed the ranger. He didn't get et.

#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

I went to get chips and missed the theremin.

Look man, if a bear can take down your whole lookout post, it was gonna fail dangerously in the near future anyway

#Monsterdon

OMG IS BEHR.
#monsterdon

once again, soaked in high-pressure blood

#monsterdon

Bear 5.5, people .5

* 1 point split for the bear cub.

#monsterdon

BONK BONK ON THE HEAD

#monsterdon #Grizzly1976

That’s right, drop the gun.

#monsterdon

The flimsy construction of that tower is disturbing the government cutbacks have to stop #Monsterdon

Best scene so far. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

dood smells like a laaaady
#Monsterdon

They just jumped the bear.

#Monsterdon

That blonde child is monster bait, and the mother knows it...

#Monsterdon

hahahah hahah
#monsterdon

#monsterdon All he said was "It's the grizzly", but luckily they knew what he meant.

It's a grizzly earthquake.
#Monsterdon

I hope the bear had a blast
#monsterdon

Maybe they shouldn't have made the tower out of balsa wood. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976

was that Wilhelm in the mix?

#monsterdon

“How do you think this bear thing is being handled?”

#monsterdon
#Grizzly

Fire tower made of bullshit #monsterdon

go bear go!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon The ability to smell like a bear! What a terrible superpower.

Hold on Tom!

Narrator: Tom in fact, did not hold on.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

One ranger down.
That "blood" is not...
