It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad Demi-God #monsterdon

His worst mortal predicament... _so far_

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Oh yeah blasting Nemesis yeah see how well that would go down in the real pantheon #HerculesInNewYork #Monsterdon

Why was the mob driving a station wagon anyway?

#Monsterdon

When the only emotion you have is throwing lightning bolts, a lot of lightning bolts are going to be thrown around. #Monsterdon

I feel like Zeus sitting fussily in his throne, watching Hercules on my orb with irritation. #Monsterdon #myorb

Zeus is a bad manager.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

@davesdogmaggie I... #Monsterdon #HerculesinNewYork 💪🏾🎞️ 🍿

Bitch, you're fucking late! I'm already two Critobal bottles deep! Never fucking going to brunch with your late ass again. #monsterdon

the hot dog scene!!! i literally laughed out loud. wow. that was golden.
#monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork

I would love to have been a fly on the wall when they applied for the permit to film those car stunts in Central Park! #Monsterdon

Hot dog guy was actually able to deliver that sauerkraut. That’s dedication.

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

New York hot dog vendors rarely lovingly place sauerkraut on your wiener anymore, and I think that's a shame

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

We kept in a scene gag about putting sauerkraut on a hotdog? What?

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970 #HINY

"We're out of gas!" #Monsterdon #HerculesinNewYork 💪🏾🎞️ 🍿

#Monsterdon 💪 🗡️⚡ 🏙️ 🗽🐻 🐎𓌝😬

I guess they don't have anyone to weed the pavers on Mt Olympus

The one laugh of the movie goes to sauerkraut guy.
#Monsterdon #HINY

Not Keystone Cops; not Ben Hurr.

I give you Diehard with a Vengeance.

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

I'm so happy for the hot dog vendor. It must feel so good for the sauerkraut to get added to the dog. #Monsterdon

Hercules vs the bear.

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

oh yeah. slide it on ma Weiner! #monsterdon

Zeus has dementia… Pass it on… ;) #monsterdon

"...we'll have a scene where the guy does a big jump at the chariot."
"And? Does he capture it? Take control of the horses?"
"Oh no. Completely misses. Just show him rolling on the ground."

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

All chariot races should have an upset man in costume mad that the chariot was stolen

#Monsterdon

and then Hercules trotted awkwardly after the sedan through the park

#monsterdon

"After him! That one! The mountain wearing panties!" #monsterdon

When your chariot's made in Detroit...

#Monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork

Tires squealing on the grass, that car has a foley artist in the trunk. #Monsterdon

Was that wheel falling off even scripted? I would believe it if it wasn't.

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970 #HINY

Roads optional apparently... #Monsterdon

I don't know what Zeus is mad about at this point, I mean, he's in Central Park, Herc's in Central Park, everbody's home, right?

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Squealing tires on grass. Love it.

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

honestly, my hope in humanity rn exponentially higher than this same time last week
#monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork #communion

We're just going to loop this footage until you lose a wheel #Monsterdon

Yes. You will find people with whips flying down the queens express in NYC I've been told. Very common occurrence. #monsterdon

Arnold will reprise chasing motor vehicles with horses in True Lies

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Good thing none of these mobsters owns a gun apparently #monsterdon

@jammerb oh interesting choice

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Cinematography by Zapruder. #Monsterdon

Oh hey, I was thinking Pretzie had a voice for animation, so I looked him up -- he's Top Cat!

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Okay that shot of Zeus looking up from Hercule's antics to find himself alone was worth the price of admission right there. #Monsterdon

OMG I want that whip for when I'm biking in Etobicoke. I'm gonna whip so many pickup trucks!

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Ben-Herc (1970) #Monsterdon

They actually filmed this. In Central Park. The 70s were wild.

#monsterdon #hercules

#Monsterdon 💪 🗡️⚡ 🏙️ 🗽🐻 🐎𓌝😬

1. Herc needs to stop it with the reins
2. The sweet gray horsie pair is doing the best they can
3. They've sped up the film to make them look like they're going faster - mostly it's just fast trot but there is uneven cantering from time to time I hope they didn't hurt their footsies

Did Zeus just wake up from an old man nap? #Monsterdon #HerculesNYC1970

This movie is stupid, unfunny, and kinda dull. But it's not making me mad at it. I'm kinda enjoying how pathetic and low stakes it is.
#Monsterdon #HINY

RE: https://sunny.garden/@steggy/116474259733502679

AND IT'S TRULY GLORIOUS!!! #Monsterdon

This is maybe the silliest chase scene outside of a Mel Brooks picture. #Monsterdon

I want them to visit the god who lives in the middle of Sleep No More

#monsterdon

Whip it! Whip it good!

#Monsterdon

Those must be bad guys: they aren’t obeying the traffic laws … but Herc stole a chariot, so what’s worse? The music. That’s getting worse. #monsterdon

Are... Are they shooting for A Wacky Car Chase Scene™? Again, I can't tell. #Monsterdon

This must be the Greek version of Benny Hill

#Monsterdon

"Get da bouzoukis.
Get da bouzoukis.
GET DA BOUZOUKIS!"

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

can't ride the chariot fast enough to get away from a dog?

whipping the gangsters in their station wagon???

this is ridiculous

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork

Did they drive that car into the lawn in the park without permission?

This is full-on Keystone cops here

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork thank the gods they sped up some of this car chase footage

Cut them off at the zoo.

This mobster slang it getting too much.

#monsterdon

Why are the mobsters in a station wagon

#monsterdon

I'm counting that motorcycle scene as "Hercules avoids confrontation" #bingo

#monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork

Dukes of Hazzard this is NOT.

#monsterdon

Why are the “mobsters” in a teal station wagon? That’s the least mobster vehicle they could possible use.

#Monsterdon

"Cut them off at the zoo."

Ow. Ow. Too much laughing. #Monsterdon

Back at the cruising park....again. It was the 70s. #monsterdon

@emma They gone have to stop for gas 3 times during this chase. #Monsterdon #HerculesinNewYork 💪🏾🎞️ 🍿

I have to confess I never saw a giant-ass station wagon as being a mob car.

#monsterdon

This bouzouki player is still better than Clapton's Communion soundtrack. #Monsterdon #HerculesNYC1970

Mobsters in a Station Wagon (1970) #Monsterdon

You're telling me Hercules didn't have a permit to drive that chariot on the streets of New York nor for those pecs?? He can't keep getting away with it

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Another thing that the filmmakers have heard of and want no truck with is shame apparently. I approve! #Monsterdon

Benny Hill chase scene. 👍

#Monsterdon

Ben hurr durr

#monsterdon #hercules

We have the movie poster shot! #Monsterdon

"Wait for your sauerkraut" is a way of saying "my cabbages!"

#Monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork
#AvatarTheLastHotdogVendor

@arcadiagt5 oh I KNOW #HerculesInNewYork #Monsterdon

@steggy

Or, as Pretzi says it, BEN HOIYA

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

A crossover between this scene and Ben Hur

#monsterdon #hercules

Easy there horse rider.
#Monsterdon #HINY

#Monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork

Nice horsies!! I beat my wife to it for once..

"Ehhh forget about the lights! Just be ready to give 'im the clamps!"

#monsterdon

Aww, Herc found his chariot!!! #Monsterdon

This ain't yer grandpa's Ben Hur.

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Ok. I'm a little slow. Pluto made the bet to make it look like Herc was in on cheating the mob guys.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

#Monsterdon 💪 🗡️⚡ 🏙️ 🗽🐻 🐎𓌝😬

those sweet horsies! They're just trotting, though one broke into a micro-canter for a second

#monsterdon I get the impression that the drummer is the one who screwed Hercules in the weightlifting effort. The comedy tomtoms were out of line >:(

Chariots in New York. Totally plausible. I mean, you couldn't do it on Staten Island, but Manhattan is totally game. #Monsterdon #HerculesNYC1970

Hercules in Minneapolis would have been.....rather different.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

@apLundell am i the only one who heard a car horn in that scene? zeus in central park? i guess there are stranger things… #monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork

An actual chariot! CHORTLES MADLY! #Monsterdon

Wait, the mobsters are driving a station wagon?

#Monsterdon
#HerculesInNewYork

@apLundell Don't make fun of them, they are perfectly nice community theater troupe.

#monsterdon

An actual chariot!

Ok, I laughed.

#monsterdon

"Now he's done it."

...Has he? I genuinely can't tell. #Monsterdon

And now, Ben-Hur!

#Monsterdon

Why does Tarzan have a chariot anyway?
#Monsterdon #HINY

There he goes again with his expensive ass NYC horse rides #monsterdon
