The one guy's voice is so much like a Hanna Barbera actor it's distracting me. And it was in some bear-related cartoon. Can't remember. Driving me nuts. #Monsterdon
honestly, if this movie were all 1970's brand Uplifting Orchestrations and Shots of Nature, i'd be here for it. every time these three guys get on screen and start shouting at each other, i wanna change the channel.
A good rule of thumb in the horror genre is that if someone says they'll do something in a definitive way, that person is about to die #Monsterdon
Is the bear going up that tiny ladder?
Herd of grizzlies?
Now we've got our Quint USS Indianapolis story from the dipshit pilot, but how could anything ever compare? Yet they always try

more drama
#monsterdon
So this really is just lazy plagiarism of Jaws. Like even more so than I expected.
#monsterdon
@kshernandez I'd at least call the bear guy at the zoo. #monsterdon
And he turned around and there was a claw stuck in the car door. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976
This guy has a special potent poison, but it won't penetrate the shark's, er uh bear's hide. So, do we get a bear cage and try to shove it in his mouth?
#monsterdon
"Let tell you story bout a man named Jed. Poor mountaineer barely kept his family fed. "#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976
Oh god, this is going to be the USS Indianapolis story from Jaws but bad
#monsterdon
that actor was so hungry he ate half of his last line
#Monsterdon
Guy, other guy, and third guy
I wonder what the grizzly is up to
I do like how the bear is bigger each time described.
The Park Rangers meet the rangers and decide that the Murder Bear is a boy because only male bears will eat other bears, like the poor bear cub. They draft the hunters as sidekicks to give them extra redshirts when they meet the bear again.
Ranger Bear assigns Ranger Horse to go spawn camp in a tower. Ranger Horse dislikes this because he doesn't want to miss the Bear War, even if watching a tower is still serving in the Bear War.
@nev another great catch on the waterfall, i wonder what it takes to get a waterfall spot, being able to have a plate on the rock seems like a status symbol
Grizzly is a BOY bear that's why it only eats girls that's HARD SCIENCE #Monsterdon
"you're not gonna be left out of anything"
except awards season. sorry about your acting career, sir.
Will these men bond over a bear/WWII story?
"He could be listening to us right now."
"He could be hearing all our plans! We should start speaking in code!"
"You know any code we could use, Joe?"
"Well, no..."
"This is why they don't pay you the big bucks."
#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976
Seriously though this WOULD be a lot better if Kelly was Dick Miller.
Ha! Yeah that's what black bear cubs are like. Just sniffing around your ankles, waiting for an ear scratch.
We know it's a he from the distinctive third line of drag marks. #monsterdon
the bear may be listening to you right now
but it's ok, I don't think they understand English.
Spy Bear
#monsterdon
"he could be listening to us right now"
surely the bear has better movies to watch.
yes, messing with a bear cub is the best idea
i'm sure mom will love that you use it as bait
Selfish prick portrayed as maverick with a heart of gold was a standard trope in the 70s
Can't believe no one on the feed made an "Exit, pursued by a bear" joke yet!
(I can believe the movie characters aren't that educated, and also none of them watched the bear chase that guy)
Last week we had malarkey, now we've got a maverick on our hands.
@trixter @caban4 @Crazypedia I thought the same #Monsterdon
that's probably why he got away!
I make this forest a part of me. Soon, I will make it a part of YOU. (apologies to The Running Man) #monsterdon
"It's not *your* forest, Kelly"
It's *DeForest* Kelly :blobcheeky: #Monsterdon
Dang. He got away
MAVRIII--oh shit, wait, I already made that joke #Monsterdon
Guy: running through dense forest
Bear: running through open field
Guy: running through dense forest
Bear: running through open field
Guy: running through dense forest
Bear: running through open field
What is this guy so worried about? The bear is nowhere near him!
#BREAKING: a bear has caught a salmon. I repeat, a bear has caught a salmon.
Meanwhile in the 70s, a bunch of guys are arguing about the metaphysics of bears.
They should lure the bear into the hotel with horny humans then trap the bear inside and set fire to the hotel, all the while laughing at the old dude who loves his hotel
the rare ghostbusters tree pole slide #monsterdon
For a man-eating bear, he's really shown a penchant for the ladies so far.
Maybe this dude will break the pattern?
Another scene of men shouting at each other...how did ANYTHING get done in those days?
This production clearly had to rent the bear outfit by the hour. #monsterdon
"we promise this is not two people walking in a bear-bottom suit"
Oh I'm pretty sure I saw a marshmallow being toasted in that campfire scene, which means I have bingo!
Ah yes, a mob of armed, drunk rednecks
They're really working us up to cheer when the park supervisor gets his just desserts.
The staff is probably stuffing his jacket with cold-cuts already.
Oh boy unruly local yokel bear hunting posse. #Monsterdon
@SordidAmok Oh did your family send you to camp corpse-a-lot in the summer, too?
does the bear have powers? is that why it keeps getting POV shots like a Dr who monster?
#Monsterdon it's horrible to say this, but I wish both the lovers have been attacked, because then I'd have bingo.
I know the bear has killed three women but I'd still trust the bear over these hunters....
Not sure if the tent lady doing her makeup was bear attacked or doing an exorcist thing.
So, that bear has several levels in rogue, right?
"Show's over, go back to your campsites"???? You expect these kids to sleep now? #Monsterdon
@MatthewTitus88 #Grizzly was a very close second. Very close.
I was 7 in 1976, and we sure did love group singalongs
"Because you're crying like a big baby you can ride in the ambulance out of shame, so the children don't see you"
The 70s were harsh
#Monsterdon 🐻 🧸 🐻❄️ 🐻 💞 😱
BINGO !!
"we need some jaws music, but in a very not-copyright-violation way" #monsterdon
Pleistocene Park?
@cocaine_owlbear I'd like a rant on how big bears should be, and if extinct ones were more like modern brown bears or polar bears in diet
It's not a grizzly 😒
Oh, it is 😏
I'm telling ya, it can't be 😒
And I'm telling YOU, it's a grizzly 😏
This scene had been going on for at least 45 minutes
Sing louder kids, gotta make sure the flesh-eating bear hears you #Monsterdon
they're not carnivores. even I know that
Gah TUBI AD.
#monsterdon
meanwhile on bear feed, the bears are just shoveling an entire river of salmon in their mouths. eating the whole woods is what they are supposed to do
https://youtu.be/73-EekdVVU8
and due to the drag pattern, we know his bear c*ck is 3 feet long #monsterdon
They are using the children as bait...
#monsterdon Migratory and straight, check and check... wait... eating... nevermind.
...So this takes place in a universe where the grizzly bear is extinct? #Monsterdon
might be our baby
shoot it!
#monsterdon
Double denim chopper pilot, very 70s
If they have to land every time he sees something this is gonna be a long flight. #Monsterdon
...the bear likes women 😬
I'm waiting for the scene where the bear takes the helicopter out of the air.
#Monsterdon #Grizzly1976 i wonder what the helicopter's doi--HEYYYY LOOK WHO'S BACK
#monsterdon Skinny dipping, with a man-eating bear in the area that you are looking for. Where do we start, basic training, park ranger training, perhapos OSHA!?!? Ah well, that's done. This moves quick. I like the blood in the waterfall and the river, that's clever!
@Configures I thought there were a few hours, or maybe even a day between when Ranger Horse was horsing around and when Ranger Horse traded his horse for a jeep.
1970s - all the ladies are always dropping the threads and jumping in the water.
Time to test my theory about toplessness
A beautiful waterfall? You'd be a fool to NOT get nude, killer bears who are definitely close by, be damned
why... is she stripping down to her underwear when they think there's a predator about? also why is her underwear different colours? oh never mind she got eten
oh I do love nature so much
I'm going to take off my shirt
Lol, the bear was waiting in the sexy waterfall, as bears do...
The cinematographer is at least able to compose to a golden ratio. I'll give them that. #Monsterdon #Grizzly1976
Wow. A timely warning and quick evacuation. What kind of horror movie is this?? ...oh boy... it's apparently one where they're going for dramatic performances. Viva 70s. #Monsterdon
Campers flee as they hear the news over the forest's PA system! #Monsterdon
Kiss. ...Kiss, come on. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Jaws of the Timberline... da-dunnn da-dunnn.
Does everyone go hiking by running in terror across the woods?
#monsterdon Running low on extras!
@allanb they hadn't invented black people yet #Monsterdon
