that's the edit you use when your actor skips leg day, apparently
Ok, very bad dubbed, but shirtless Arnold from the 70's is great

#HerculesInNewYork
Hercules has the men of New York begging for it. That's what those pecs do
Compelling long jump miming.
Arnold running .gif
#Monsterdon #HINY
Holy moly the musk coming off of that scene. #Monsterdon
Does he have any non-yeeting powers?
Lou Ferrigno Hercules would have shot an airplane out of the sky with one of those throws
#monsterdon
What exactly are you a coach of? TV watching? #monsterdon
Wow, that truly is the javelin technique of a Demigod. Throwing it downwards, and having it change trajectory upwards mid-flight.
"That javelin almost hit the lamppost! Which is, you know, not as far as the discus but, you know, still probably good I assume!" #monsterdon
I love that this movie is all about Hercules showing off for 12 guys at college sports--like he is not even at Yankee Stadium.
If we count the dock fight, cab argument, and these games... We're up to 3 labours of Hercules
Everything lands close to the pole. The pole is the absolute measure of victory.
Pretzi is now Hercules's manager? #Monsterdon
James Karen is a bit of a lifer. I always think of Wall Street. #monsterdon
if he was really Hercules, the javelin would be in space rn
No budget for ripping shirts off. Instead, Hercules is very practiced with removing buttons with great skill.
Greek fellow⦠from greece
Still hasn't hit that cab...
#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork "can't' throw a javelin without showing off my pecs first"
We have unnecessary pec flex
REPEAT, we have UNNECESSARY PEC FLEX
(Okay, movie, please don't do that again)
Oh no, what did his pecs just do?!?!!
The javelin goes further when he takes his shirt off. It's physics.
Coach Shlub is not impressed. #Monsterdon
Flex those pecs!
Taking off his shirt in front of the lesbians. OH MY! He's throwing his....rod....OH MY! And it landed...erect #monsterdon
@apLundell Probably.
#Monsterdon
THE POWER OF PECKS COMPELS YOU!
I told you he'd be taking his clothes off. #Monsterdon
So much unnecessary bouncing. #Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork
I see he managed to get his shirt off.
"Ya, zey are prehenzile too!" [picks up discus with his mantitties]
I couldn't possibly yeet while restrictively shirted. #Monsterdon #HerculesNYC1970
stop that with the pecs, that's gross #Monsterdon
WHOOOOO he did the pec thing!
Come on, that discus should be at 36,000 light seconds distance by now.
I... I... I...
Foreigners not understanding idiomatic speech, the height of comedy. #Monsterdon
Oh this will end badly... #Monsterdon
The secret is steroβ errr ambrosia. Yeah, ambrosia! #Monsterdon
Now they'll be scared shirtless
... and an excuse for Herc to flex his pecs for the camera.
okay, he _is_ in club sleeves are bullshit
Oh look we happened upon random discus players. You know, as you do so often in new york. #monsterdon
"Wow, the discus hit that lamppost..which is, um...that was far away? I think? Hitting a lightpost, that's...um, yeah, that's probably pretty good I guess." #monsterdon
This movie is very silly and honestly I'm not complaining.
Hercules is from a post capitalist society
Imagine the writer who said one day, I need to tell this story. #monsterdon
god these lines are so bad lmao
#monsterdon
I do 11 other things! #HerculesInNewYork #Monsterdon
Thatβs not a great way to throw a discus. But he is politer than he was with Dad. #monsterdon
Okay I was wrong about the sexless part. Pipe smoker is all about that Hercules. #Monsterdon
wow no one imagined the giant muscular guy could throw something far
Tarantellas again... #Monsterdon
#monsterdon the wiry little guy expecting Hercules to pay for the cab felt very contrived, surely you're only involved because you're in awe of this meatheaded Adonis, and you don't expect him to converse or pay for things
We are now in the Olympic sports flexing portion of our film.
Is javelin catching up next?
He's a very polite demigod sometimes, thanking the track and field coach for letting him throw the discus.
That was the year.... uh, do we have any historians for the script? No? Just interrupt him! #Monsterdon #HerculesNYC1970
βI am Hercules. I wonβt take βnoβ for an answer.β
Sounds Greek to me. π
Yeah, Arnold's a bodybuilder, not a discus thrower. Completely the wrong build. #Monsterdon
The poetry of flinging heavy shit never fails to stir the heart. #Monsterdon
Sank you!
βPut that discus down!β #Monsterdon
"...who do you think you are?"
"They call me Biggus Discus."
Exactly where did those free pretzels come from in the cab?
'You know what pleases me most about these boys?'
β'Yes, but I keep quiet about it.'
Challenge Accepted.... #Monsterdon
Hercules wants to go throw dick with some sporty college guys.
#Monsterdon #HINY
I fuckin hate it when men don't throw the discus far enough. #monsterdon
π¦MONSTERDON ποΈ
βοΈ TRIVIA IN
NEW YORK πͺπ€Ό
πIn dubbed version, listen for
... monotone delivery. The voice actor used appeared to simply be reading text off a page. No emotion.
On the other hand, it's nice to see one film that shows a more mythologically accurate Herc.
An asshole.
Twink said "college guys", and the muscle boy runs of. FUCKING TYPICAL! #monsterdon
if Herc wants to go to Columbia they're going to have to get King Midas down here! Haha just kidding, we sure have fun here on #monsterdon
"They're just athletes."
"Outlets?"
So, is the whole movie just someone mentions a modern thing and then Herculies doesn't get it, and then he breaks something?
Just that same bit over and over?
that guy is a cartoon turtle but as a human
"Nobody can beat them!" yeah tell that to the soviets
No sir, I don't want to know what pleases you most about those boys.
And neither does your daughter.
#Monsterdon
College guys in New York City are mostly about the track & field events. #Monsterdon
This Hercules accent? It's Greek to me.
#monsterdon #herculesinnewyork
James Karen from Poltergeist and Return of the Living Dead! #monsterdon
i also neglect my partner in service to the intercollegiate meet.
Hey! It's Frank from Return of the Living Dead. #Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork
Ok, so they have nailed the βHercules is a real a**holeβ part of the myths that is so often overlooked in movies. Save for the accent, this might be the most accurate screen representation of him! #Monsterdon
Ah, time to set up someone who is all brawn and no brain. #Monsterdon #HerculesNYC1970
#Monsterdon πͺ π‘οΈβ‘ ποΈ π½π» πππ¬
huh oh this is ... Helen
Heβs gonna pimp his daughter out, isnβt he?
Full of cracking dialog. #monsterdon
Herc, maybe turning the cab on its side was a bit much. Cabbie was just doing his job.
He's working his way up to throwing things into space, @Taweret, starting with flipping cars.
Is Hercules going to walk past Simon & Garkfunkel sitting on a park bench?
