Not exactly a passage from the Bhagavad Gita. #monsterdon

Already very accurate to America doing anything International

This feels like a evangelical advert...

the "horrible menace" being the people who stole a baby kaiju, right?

They should say....

lil' kid's like: "I wish I'd never learned Japanese!"

This island is always dancing, it's like The Beach

@RachelThornSub@famichiki.jp as someone that always votes for the oldest movie, I second this @Taweret@timeloop.cafe #Monsterdon

A new kaiju egg is hatching. Happy pride month!

RIP ancient cultural artifact.

A thing that has never occurred in history: Native people happy to see the invaders who mass-murdered their parents a generation ago.

"But we made a theme park land just for you!"

I'm not super amused by the blackface, but eh, it's the '60s. !timecapsule, you know?

And now, the ceremonial gravel quarry! Holy land of all B-movies!

The statue looks like their comic relief fisher guy.

"In primitive races the most fearful thing is their god"

spicy take there lady!

#Monsterdon

I would have preferred if Larry took her into the fog and they lived happily radioactive ever after.

#monsterdon

@Louisa #Monsterdon

yeah but then you woulda missed the Writer's Barely-Disguised Fetish....

The people of North Sentinel Island have the right idea. You see strangers trying to contact your uncontacted tribe, you huck spears at them until they're dead.

#Monsterdon #Gappa

Gappa has more cinematography, acting, & music in the intro than all of Year 2889.

"We're going to steal animals & pretty girls from the South Seas. Ha ha Japanese imperialism is fun!"

OH, random island in the Pacific, that happens all the time.

#monsterdon #gappa

Should've gone with the "Winged god" ending.

#Monsterdon

The volcano teased in the main feature is here for the double feature!
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

I stupider cause watch this movie.

#Monsterdon

In the category of a Post Apocalyptic Movie spares the audience from a realistic depiction of the nuclear apocalypse I give #InTheYear2889 5 out of 5 stars. Too bad it barely depicted anything at all. Old guy prepper lectures a lot but seems to be singularly ineffective. None of the people seem to be taking their supposed peril all that seriously, even as one of them turns into a monster, and another turns out to be a murderer. You know what, I don't care either. Definitely a #Monsterdon to post about and not pay much attention to.

Thanks for the commentary, everyone. Thanks for hosting @Taweret . Thanks for the bingo card, @cherizilla . Thanks @miru for the stream.

Well team, great job, that's another movie launched into space but honestly this one should've been burned in the cornfield and I think we all know it.

Thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Toto University gonna bless the rains down in the South Seas

#Monsterdon #WrongYear

the apocalypse being totally fine is certainly a choice. nobody seemed to really care that everyone else was dead, after the rain all the problems were solved. the monsters never even really attacked them, the only one that was prowling around was just joanna's fiancee. really the only problem in the whole movie was mickey.

#monsterdon

@Violinknitter
I mean, yeah.
But I also reject the entire movie.

That was truly awful. And not in a fun way.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon And the religious stuff? What was the point of that? IT didn't go anywhere, and none of the characters was particularly religious anyway.

None of them seemed to take any particular inspiration or solace from reading the bible. It was just a thing they did to kill some time.

honestly that would be a weakness of extremely rapid evolution, that in the period of evolution you might not be exposed to a periodic environmental phenomenon that a longer evolutionary window would have selected for compatibility with. so really this movie is about the dangers of incomplete environmental conditions in controlled evolution experiments #monsterdon

@ColesStreetPothole We find out in the sequel "In the Year 2890"

#monsterdon

But what really happened to Jimothy? We never found out!
#Monsterdon

I'm going to check the nightmare box because that whole movie was a nightmare

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonBingo

@Lazarou Actually even a good or mid movie might break a ceasefire.

#monsterdon

I like how the monster is just an old guy with bad teeth

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

The BEGINNING!?

Oh HELL no.

THE END

So all they had to do was let it rain to kill the mutants, and the actual monster lived? Damn what a bummer!

Oh well the commentary on here made it bearable thanks everyone!

And thanks @Taweret for sharing this Dark Blue #Monsterdon with us!

Maybe the real monsters were the people who made this film.

#monsterdon

Mr Creeper is about to shoot Elvis but then John shoots him with his bonus gun first, so the real hero can be the Second Amendment.

Then the movie ends with a titlecard saying "The beginning" and showing Elvis and the Daughter holding hands. I think. I think that's what it was showing. Also I really hope that was the end of the movie.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Thanks everyone for giving this film the respect it deserves!

#Monsterdon

In the year 2889 (1969) - 2/5

terrible and boring, regains a point for the incomprehensible strokelike dialogue choices

#monsterdon #monsterdonReviews

@saucerlost
I guess you’ll just have to watch it all over again to find out

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 📅 ⏩ ⚛️ 💣 💥 🧟 🧟‍♀️ 🧌 😱

so I really want someone to analyze the corpus of movie subtitles and find out the average number of times a character calls the character they're talking directly with by their name anyway, Joanna.

More importantly, thank you @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla@hypertext.monster1 for bingo, @JoeWynne for trivia and all you delightful #Monsterdonians for making it fun

Now we can say yes but have you seen InTheYear2889 to some snotty film know-it-all

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@Binder

It's like it was supposed to have 2-4 tracks of sound but they only recovered one

#Monsterdon

@TerryHancock we didn't even hear gunshots. We had to assume. This whole film was so quiet.

#Monsterdon

@TerryHancock No, Joanna and Steve ran back to the house, holding hands, with "The Beginning" {superimposed on them], guess they'll have 10,000 kids to save the human race. #monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

This movie should have been titled Love, Rain O’er Me. Because in the end, it was a love story. And there was rain. And The Who.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon after all my confusion, I looked it up. The two women in this movie

The only two women

Were named Joanna, and Jada.

@Lazarou Seems like a poor survival trait #Monsterdon

THAT'S IT? That's the ending? #monsterdon

Wow... What a messed up movie. And I don't mean messed up like sick, I mean messed up like, so many things went wrong and were just poorly done. This was more like some kid's project or something.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"There is a future! For precisely one generation, after which even with you boffing your dad, the population is going to be more mutated than the rad-freaks out there."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

BAM! Now that’s a patented abrupt ending!
#Monsterdon

Where's that poll asking if this was the worst movie this year - I think I found it!

#Monsterdon #WrongYear

Anyway, TIME FOR THE AFTER-PARTY!!!

"[In] The Beginning [was the end]"

#Monsterdon

God I hope that's not the beginning
#monsterdon   

Needed Larry post credit sequence looking at his watch at cafe

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

i... i guess it's over?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Did he shoot Mickey w/ a silencer? WTF #Monsterdon

There werengun shots, but they were muted.

If you would have shot him earlier, this movie could have been over a lot sooner. Geez. #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Oh, thank gods it’s over.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 📅 ⏩ ⚛️ 💣 💥 🧟 🧟‍♀️ 🧌 😱 viewing of 'In the Year 2889' (1969)

The Beginning.. F you movie.
My God, that was bad. Horrible.

okay but seriously how is everyone in this movie reaching the conclusion that pure water will kill things that can handle radioactive water

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@amyfou Everything in this movie makes complete sense and I totally understand it.

#monsterdon

and they fucked off into the MGM logo, good night

#Monsterdon

A bunch of temporary monsters that die as the world recovers, sure. Could be good in a good movie

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

The creature is confirmed to be Larry!!!!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I think that was already a stand-your-sofa situation, why wait any longer!

#Monsterdon

That "atomic thing" out there anticipates the aliens in Signs (M. Night Shyamalan).

#Monsterdon

Who knew radiation mutants were dissolved in the rain? 🤷 #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"Just plain old rainwater..."
"... THAT'S IT! There was no nuclear apocalypse!
Granger just tried to do a heist on a power plant and traipsed 40 roents of radiation all over the house.

We can all go back to society, Jada will be so happy!"

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Steve don’t you see? It’s got body dysmorphia. That’s why it wouldn’t go in the pool!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

motherfucker they actually do dissolve in water

goddammit

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"I like to know what I'm fighting"

Well, I have news for you, Steve. You are fighting a bad script, bad effects, bad acting and bad photography. Also it's afraid of water.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon The monster kind of reminds me of the president of the federation from Star Trek VI after a bad night.

you already said it was afraid of water

#Monsterdon

Joanna!

Screw you, Steve! I've got a new boyfriend, and he doesn't treat me like a fukken broodmare.

#Monsterdon

Some 30 round luger that is.

#monsterdon

Finally the hydrophobia pays off!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@cocaine_owlbear They should all have scared shtless expressions on their faces with lots of side I and jumpscaring themselves! #Monsterdon

"I'm taking over!"
Taking over a group of three people. How prestigious.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Ugh, I hate this guy. I hope he gets creached.

#Monsterdon

Is there a "How to carry fainted women" course in Monster school?

#Monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

Theory: Movie originally had no monster. Joanna went stage 4 and they had to kill her. Audiences didn’t go for it. Only man kills man.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I'd like a break from the song.

Yeah, the Harry Styles one.

...and the super racist one in this film

#Monsterdon

This scary harp music is very Star Trek

#Monsterdon

Maybe it just feels like this movie is taking until 2889 to finish? 🤔

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

What if these weren't night scenes. They just screwed up their color temperature on the outdoor shots.

#Monsterdon

Wait o still don't have a bingo yet? #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Vampire Frankie got her

#Monsterdon

@saucerlost yeah, but they all shoot blanks? #Monsterdon

Oh no who could have seen that coming

#monsterdon

THIS IS BUSINESS APE

#monsterdon

obvious day-for-night is obvious

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I Can't Believe There's A Plot

#monsterdon

three little two little one little wrenchin's

#Monsterdon

This movie is like time travel. It seems that time is going backwards, cause this suffering never ends.
#Monsterdon #intheyear2889

OOOOOooooOOOooooo

#Monsterdon

I sure hope Dracula is out there
