Are they worried he's gonna break the discus or something?

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

lol, Helen as minor character

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

"You know what pleases me most Helen about these boys?"

"Yes dad, but remember what your parole officer said."

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

an actual 'pretzel vendor?'

I thought that was an ethnic slur?

#Monsterdon

Yeah a normal guy out-muscling four longshoreman is impressive but a greek demi-god? He should be putting these guys into orbit. Ferrigno-Herc would put guys into orbit.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Smash them Hercules, smash the class traitors!

#Monsterdon

I hope Woody Allen at Home saves Hercules from these vagrants

#Monsterdon

It’s a fish out of water story… or should I say… [mimics Arnold voice] PISCES OUT OV VATER!

#monsterdon #herculesinnewyork1970

Herc really pulling off that J. Crew 1970 look.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

"no man is superior to hercules"

a roundabout way of saying "no gods, no masters!"

#Monsterdon

Twilight Zone reference?

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

"Why, you offensive puppy!"

#Monsterdon

So many people worked on this bollocks, are you telling me they were all paid?!

#Monsterdon

Yeah Venus. Mind your business. #monsterdon

"Hercules, the human world,. it's a mess. Life here on Mount Olympus is better than anything they have down there. Hit it!"

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Oh god the Miru stream is NOT DUBBED

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

I just realized... AC/DC is from Australia too!

#monsterdon #WrongHercules #MaximumOverHercules

any old pud could jump in to save her. I'd be impressed if Herc saved her by drinking all the water.

#monsterdon #WrongHercules

This is Alpha Control saying that even if Hercules didn't yeet anything into space, we did, and that's another film out in the great beyond where it belongs. Great job everybody, and thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting!

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

@jonny dissagrible

#monsterdon

@apLundell I was expecting some scene where the professor had a long but nonsensical explanation about how the gods might actually be real while smoking his pipe.

#monsterdon

@blogdiva Jeus. #Monsterdon

Pretzie’s despair apartment now costs $7,500 a month to rent #Monsterdon

Frankly, this Hercules was an absolutely superlative #monsterdon. So campy. So funny. So much to mock. And very few scenes where you're just kinda bored staring asking "what's going on?" Mostly scenes where you're actively engaged and asking "what's going on!?"

I got 3 Stooges Meet Hercules. #monsterdon

They couldn't get Arnold to do the radio voice? They didn't need to add so much distortion. #monsterdon

Torture by bouzouki was the real monster here...
... but it was kinda fun!

Thanks @Taweret and all the #Monsterdon fanfolk!

#Monsterdon 💪 🗡️⚡ 🏙️ 🗽🐻 🐎𓌝😬

wtf just happened??

Wait, isn’t Samson a bible character?? The theology is all over the map #Monsterdon

THANKS PAN AM

#Monsterdon

"It all sounds revoltingly noisy."

"HUH?"

"I SAID IT ALL SOUNDS.... GODDAMN IT CAN SOMEONE SHUT THOSE CARS UP?!?"

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

This is just somebody's psychotic break, like last week, isn;t it?

#Monsterdon

lol, maybe you did imagine it all dude?

Radios don't have conversations with people, think about that one dude

#Monsterdon

That's it, ask for forgiveness and get whisked back to olympus?

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

@strangefour #monsterdon

"...this is not a dream...."

@steggy 😂

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

#pedantscorner
#Monsterdon

Slow mo the big stunts to get your money's worth

#Monsterdon

The mandolin guy is getting tired

#Monsterdon

Climbing the lift like that is definitely an OSHA violation, fortunately they won't exist for another two years.
#monsterdon

Mercury, the trickster god, has the WORST poker face.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Did Paul Feig make this

#Monsterdon

Samson?

So we're including the Old Testament now?

Fuck, why not send Horus while we're at it? #Monsterdon

Wait? What? Samson? The Biblical strong man? WTF?

#Monsterdon

Atlas and Samson in for the finisher. 😆
#Monsterdon

@apLundell in myth Zeus immortalizes a youth named Ganymede to be his cupbearer... so... kinda?

#monsterdon

Don't point that rebar at me, Zeus

#Monsterdon

Hah! Zeus's thunderbolt is... spraypainted and bent rebar!

#monsterdon

@SnoopJ even all the 'driving a car across the grass in the middle of the park' shots? that's so awesome #monsterdon

This runs plenty long. #monsterdon

Oh thank goodness that hot dog got its onions

Critical to the whole movie

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Oh thank god. He got his kraut. That guy deserves a huge tip. #Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

[series of increasingly dangerous stunts continues]

#Monsterdon

Why would you lean OUT of the car just to get whipped?

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

"Forget about the red light!"

ooo, these ARE gangsters!

or police...

#Monsterdon

Ben Hur? I hardly know Hur!

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Can we watch Easy Rider

#Monsterdon

The hot dog vendor chasing the customer to make sure they get their full order is SO New York City. #Monsterdon

They're chasing us in a Night at the Roxbury meme

#Monsterdon

lol, the Muscle building world is so weird....

#Monsterdon

I know the movie expects tension in this scene but I don't understand why. Is it because of the powder or whatever?

#Monsterdon

He should try lifting his sword over his head and saying "I HAVE THE POWER!"

#monsterdon

#monsterdon So, you think he's noticed that his godlike powers have gone?

I don't know how divine power works, but wouldn't you feel it?

lol, stop zooming in on his muscles you weridos...

#Monsterdon

1,000 pounds? BItch, the little old jacked lady at Gold's can press more. #monsterdon

Monstro leaving NOTHING to the imagination about his nickname.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Who can harm Hercules! The centaur Nessus.

#monsterdon #hercules

Laughs uproariously.

Uh, huh

#monsterdon

Ahnuld’s back was absolutely ridic

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

really blowing the excellent movie they had set up in the first 10 minutes of hercules wandering around and beating people up and being strong with all this other dogshit that isn't that #monsterdon

Pluto, monetizing future failure from sabotage he knows about reminds me of someone. #Monsterdon

Yeeeaaaahhh

#Monsterdon

Evil gay pimp Hades kinda sucks as an interpretation #monsterdon

what the hell is going on with the honking horns on the streetcorner of pluto could they not even afford a set for an hour #monsterdon

Amazingly low budget hell: An iron gate, a red light and some fog. #monsterdon

She's gone to a fetish club?

#Monsterdon

Look sister, you want him dead, you kill him. #monsterdon

isn't Hera a little too young for the actual myth?

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

Wow they really went all out on this Hades set huh?

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

and that's why you always keep an eye on your drink in New York

#Monsterdon

That's an ominous bouzouki

#Monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork

this is a really cheap production

#Monsterdon

booo go back to when everyone was fighting hercules all the time #monsterdon

"His... virginity?"

"DIVINITY."

"Sorry, this fountain is crazy loud."

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Zeus doing the Tim the Sorcerer routine.

#monsterdon #HerculesInNewYork1970

Do people still talk like that in New York or is like like London with the Cockney accent?

#Monsterdon

Wait, the pretzel guy is named Pretzy?

How did I miss that?

#monsterdon

Yeet the little man out the window, yeet something dammit!

#Monsterdon

A mild megalomania :catsmilinglaser:

#Monsterdon

On a street named Broadway. Or maybe it was Dameway

#Monsterdon

The guy playing Mercury is actually acting. He has expression, tone of voice. It's so strange. Probably could have been a great actor, but then they saw THIS on his resume and said "we'll pass..."

#monsterdon
