You know I tend to think my writing is bad but then I watch movies like this
And now, "Hey, Beastermaster's On!" (HBO)
#monsterdon #beastmaster
Think of it not as sequel bait but as a movie that could have been twice as long and thankfully wasn't
Thanks as always @Taweret for hosting and everybody for posting! On to the double feature!
Up next on @miru@social.miyaku.media is The Beastmaster
#Monsterdon #TheBeastmaster1982
Actually I do recall some comic about a guy with superball powers...
#Monsterdon π π¬ π βοΈπ¦ π±
And they didn't even bother to credit the horsies or the donkey! Booooo.
Oh well - thank you @Taweret for hosting and @JoeWynne for trivia and also @cherizilla for making the monsterdon Mega Cards available!
Most importantly, thanks to all you #Monsterdonians for making it fun!
spending this week locked in a room writing HAWK BEARER OF THE MINDSWORD screenplay #Monsterdon
Well that was certainly a LOT of plot to squeeze into, what was it, 6.5 hours? No? Just 90 minutes? Whoa!
Thanks for hosting again @Taweret. I wish everyone a very fond OO-EE-OO-EE-OOO until next week.
@Violinknitter Is that French? Preeety sure that's French! #Monsterdon
The "Customers Also Watched" ribbon after this is hilarious.
@srol aka Hawk 2ah
As the credits roll to the dulcet tones of DISCOOO SNAAAAAAAAKE we take our leave of Hawk the Slayer. Thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting. Have a great week Beautiful Mutants! #monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer
Thank you, @Taweret and everyone for the Mind Sword! #Monsterdon
And so ends another #Monsterdon with the cinema masterpiece, #HawkTheSlayer1980. Our thanks to @Taweret and all those who joined us today, and remember Monsterdoners: The hunchback will have something to say about this!

Buckaroo Banzai didn't even get a sequel. And that had electric guitars in. #Monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer
They couldn't give them real swords, for they could cut themselves.
#monsterdon #hawktheslayer
gingerbread jesus isn't nearly as bland and dry as catholic jesus is all i'm saying
No #MonsterdonBingo for me. :-(
(DO DE DO DE DO)
Thanks all for another fun #monsterdon
The credits art looks like artsy diaper shit.
#Monsterdon not a terrible movie but it couldn't have been that hard to vary the set pieces beyond forest and church and too much horse riding and too many hints of backstory with no grounding or explanation
So, a big floating translucent jawa?
The adventures continue in Hawk the Slay2r
The wizard will resurrect Jack Pallance for "City Slickers". #Monsterdon
I wonder if the south is a different woods or the same woods?
#monsterdon
The evil star wars jawa ghost takes away the soul of Darth Vader

#Monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer1980

#monsterdon

Someone gave Blaze and star a treato I think
These heroes were ridiculously overpowered
@Louisa i was hoping it would turn out his face was fine and the wizard had been gaslighting him the whole time
Is the wise woman the wizard, too? #Monsterdon
The giant really should have had a bigger horse.
#Monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer
THE WIZARDS GATHER IN THE SOUTH
A SHADOW OVER MORDOR
@Mjack I feel I shouldn't be seeing this... you know ... for privacy? Give em some pri... okay we don't want to see this! #MonsterDon
Well, that was dumb fun!
#monsterdon
#hawktheslayer
Weird Face reveal, sequel bait, audience is tapping their watches. Stick a fork in it, this movie was over 10 minutes ago.
Oh, look, they set up for a sequel... #monsterdon
so would I be wrong in assuming that Gort is just really short for a Giant?
And Voltan's patron fucks off with him into.... somewhere
"Where will you go now?"
Depends how the casting goes for the sequel. #Monsterdon
No we won't.
NO! No more of the Dark One. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon his face is fine!!! Oh wait now it's beef jerky
Wait, what happened to Crow and Machine Gun guy?
#monsterdon
This wizard is a real upstanding character, eh. #monsterdon
How do we feel about killing our estranged brother who murdered our wife? Anything? No?
OMG, are they trying to set up a sequel?
A sequel? Oh, hell no!
sequelbait?!
Jack hits the road #Monsterdon
I gneuinely forgot about the wizard and thought they randomly included what is it the hopskinville goblin
Then the wizard steals the only proof they had that they beat the bad guy. #Monsterdon
WHOAH HERE COME THE DALEKS
Oh no a sequel? #Monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer1980
Oh cool it's Moon Knight
They left the elf behind? I know he wants to leave but #Monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer1980
The wizard is a jawa?
JAWAS?!
oh hey palpatine
Is that a cryptid
#Monsterdon sequel set up
Giant misses his dwarf.
#Monsterdon #HawkTheSlayer
All of these sword fights look so effortless. There's no challenge. There's no struggle. There's no journey. Just a smug puncheable face.
it doesn't even matter if you know which character I'm talking about
Prop swords are rarely properly sharp, to prevent on-set accidents.
#Monsterdon π π¬ π βοΈπ¦ π±
Good old Blaze!
#monsterdon yes, get some good closeups so we can see the swords have no edges
I sHaLL wAit FoR you... AAAAHT THE gaTES OF hhhhhHHEEEEELL #Monsterdon
Yes it will.
Is that it? Is that all it took to kill him?
Oh yes, you definitely look like someone grieving
Voltron acts, Hawk just kinda ... stands dully.
"At Hell's gates, I wait for thee"
Body Blow...!
Body Blow...!
Body Blow...!
