When does Thanos enter the story?
Also pandora's jar was ... a space ship ... that exploded. BECAUSE REASONS. #monsterdon
creation myth the pew pew pew edition
I've got a jar of dirt. I've got a jar of dirt.

⁉️ DEMI-TRIVIA 💪
🚨 Greek myth experts: Please mute the opening dialogue to avoid your head exploding.
From what I saw in the trailer, this movie is full of impressive bikini tops. #Monsterdon
Pandora 2600
Pandora's Jar... what about her box? #Monsterdon #Hercules1983
Well yea, a jar is probably a lot easier than a box to get out of. #Monsterdon
Surprisingly accurate theogony so far. #monsterdon
The element of Hair!
I had to mop the bathroom just before this started, and I was like: "Isn't this a Task of Hercules?"
Not sure what's going on with the weird starfield or the witches of eastwick font. #monsterdon
I don't need this much setup

Night Day Matter Air.
Wut.
did we just see the big bang, how did they get a camera there
Then the movie exploded.. and there were nipples. #monsterdon #Hercules
IN THE BEGINNING -- wait shit, wrong mythology #Monsterdon
#monsterdon lol oh shit, darkness! IN TECHNICOLOR 🎆🎇🎆🎇
Representing Lemmy, Mastodon's fediverse sibling! #monsterdon
#monsterdon cutting corners on in-tune orchestra right from the start
@OldRustBucket lol, majestic
Golan-Globus, only the finest films. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #Hercules1983 ah the cannon group
as in, they shoulda shot this film out of a cannon
LET'S BEGIN! #monsterdon
finished watching Hercules 🌕🌕🌗🌑🌑
Just crazy enough for a watch party!
Watched in the #Monsterdon watch party on Mastodon.
I feel like this movie only got the "a village is in trouble" and "we can count to seven" parts of the whole Seven Samurai concept.
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
Ya know if not-Herc just hands the sword to the bandits one at a time...
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
This people really need to repair their buildings.
I guess the bandits in the Seven Samurai aren't exactly memorable and imposing individually. They are just a big horde of killers.
But this is trying to have a main villain and failing.
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
This main villain looks like a third string Skeletor henchman from the background of one episode. Give him some pants and a cool hat atleast.
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
I'm pretty sure I've climbed all these walls in Assassin's Creed games.
THAT's the Mifune character, huh?
Wow, I got my first two "Mastodon verification" spamsters tonight. Both mentioning #Monsterdon. I guess we're a thing!
Goliath, aka we have David Harbour at home.
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
@diazona I wonder how space is ding now? Are it's needs being met off screen? Is someone still throwing the old rock down the canyon? Is space still getting the old spinning bear treatment?
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
Oh now I see why it was Sparse. xD
Han my old buddy, my old pal!
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
Caligula offcasts
The mad king who thinks he's a god looks like Gene Wilder's stunt double.

Why do you need torches, you have this bright ass light behind you.
Gorgeous Ladies Of ancient Wrestling
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
Butt closeups?
A cinematographer after my own heart.
This isn't the greco-roman wrestling I was promised.
SILICONE TITTY WRESTLING
More extras in this Lou Ferrigno movie. And way more off camera people talking nonsense in the dub.
#Monsterdon #TheSevenMagnificentGladiators
Oh sure, beat up the local welcome wagon.
That's.... that's a nice cloak, Lou
The hunchback of the roman suburbs
Are they mummies cosplayers? or lepers?
How many takes were required? because those horses are DONE.
"Does this barbarian have a brain" says the crazed emperor, staring off into space, his eyes slowly diverging until they point into two different directions
I also don't believe in drawers
Listen, I don't know who needs to hear this... Gladiators DID NOT RACE CHARIOTS
I kinda want to watch the Steve Reeves films now.
Re-watch? I think I saw them as a very young kid but it's been decades.
Looks like the #Monsterdon tag has finally hit the big time, y'all. That's like the fifth or sixth identical phishing spam I've reported tonight.
the #Phishing coming from #MastodonSocial on the #Monsterdon tag tonight is going to have me finally suspend them on my single user instance and i'm going to let every account i follow on there know it first. 😡
"We have the Conan soundtrack at home" ass muzik.
#Monsterdon #SevenMagnificentGladiators
So if you fail the sword's test it kills you?
She really WAS a bene gesserit, and they're looking for the Kwisatz Haderach
That's one hot sword. And he's dead. from burning hands.
#monsterdon Daedalus when Daedalus walks in
Yes! Grasp it! Grasp the sword of 10,000 volts!
#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #TheIncredibleHerc
@jonny ALLEGORY FOR NUCLEAR POWER IN CAPITALIST SOCIETY, I STAND BY IT.
plus, I mean
_that was the best take_
that's the one they went with
mantitty leap!
i wonder what scared them
So this is also a #StarWars grab that more directly copies the seven samuri thing?
#TheSevenMagnificentGladiators #Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #TheIncredibleHerc
That morning trip to the bathroom after you have two cups of coffee for breakfast. #Monsterdon
I'm still at the smae levels of WTF is going on? #Monsterdon #Monsterdon2 #TheIncredibleHerc
A Sword forge by Vulcans? #Monsterdon
That will be the outside toilets then
#Monsterdon
Hell no camera angle!
My eyes my eyes!
#Monsterdon
Well, that movie was oddly boring.
@davesdogmaggie ooooh that's good
No bingo for me this time, despite a lot of checked boxes
I have returned from a trip to the snows outside to gather cheese spread from the great stables of cars.
So this one looks to be more of a basic Conan rip off. Just with Greek flavoring.
#Monsterdon #SevenMagnificentGladiators
Totally reading her lines off a pillar.

Mwah, good night everybody. Thanks to @Taweret for hosting and @ryan for streaming. Thanks for riffing on bad movies with me Mastodon pals.
I think I'll go re-read Waldrop's A Dozen Tough Jobs now, just to recover from this.
Thanks to all who participated and organized this.
Dear cod piece!
#Monsterdon
What is with that outfit! Look at this guy?!
Poor Cassiopeia, I hate when my tinfoil dress gets caught in the paper shredder, too #Monsterdon
dud where's your pants?
#Monsterdon #Monsterdon2
My dude, I think you're wearing your wife's BDSM outfit.
No bingo sadly
@diazona Or, "mounds" the word? 🤭 #Monsterdon #Hercules1983
Is this even a separate film, or is it just a recut of Hecules?
@combatwombat@hachyderm.io is it the same set peices too? #Monsterdon #Monsterdon2
@diazona Oh... ok. Mums the word lol #Monsterdon #Hercules1983
Looks like the same director made another one in '85, so I'm just gonna keep rolling.
#Monsterdon #AdventuresOfHercules
@strangefour Apparently Minos was the king of Thira, not Crete, in this story? I came in late. #Monsterdon
#Hercules1983
@combatwombat@hachyderm.io so i wasnt imagining the #monsterdon feed zooming by all night 😅
Well, that was a thing folks.
Signing off now, time for some lunch and a bit of yard work.
Minos' sacrifice-contraption had an Italian racing-bike crank and arms.
