@AnarchoNeighbor @LingLass @Taweret @Cherizilla @JoeWynne oh right, that explains everything.

#monsterdon

@klu9 Okay the racism they're doing and specifically the kid being like no the statue's gonna fuck you brought it back, this was one of the late-night movies I watched early in the pandemic before discovering #monsterdon!

@CactuarJoe
1 person finally caved.

That person needs to be cast out of the survival mansion! 🙏

#Monsterdon

Oh hey they made a life sized ruined statue. Neat. That statue already has more budget put into it and art than In The Year 2889.
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

Oh right. We do a little island racism like every King Kong or Mothra movie.
That'd be why I remember this as a good bad movie. Good kaiju, bad brown face.
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

Sometimes the #Monsterdon films are so bad, they’re not even heckle-able.

@AnarchoNeighbor @LingLass @Taweret @Cherizilla @JoeWynne U.S. politics really is a dull plot.

#monsterdon

Ahhhhnd I'm out

#Monsterdon

Wait, is this a level from a Tomb Raider game?

#Monsterdon

@strangefour@retro.pizza But it makes it clear from five kilometers that they're doing a colonialism!

#Monsterdon #Gappa

That doesn't look like a Moai. Head is far too tiny.
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

My kid did a better volcano project for science class

#Monsterdon

I will say this, the utter stupidity of #InTheYear2889 is exactly the kind of mental reset I needed today

#Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie A little rain will fix you right up! #monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

The volcanic bombs make this an even more thrilling vacation spot!

#Monsterdon #Gappa

@AnarchoNeighbor @Taweret @Cherizilla @JoeWynne 😆 #Monsterdon

Ahhm, the shitass incandescent flashlights

#Monsterdon

Oooh. Giant set of glowing eyes under the water looks great.
Man I haven't seen Gappa in so long maybe it is better than I thought?
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

This was really… something. I’m noticing a trend lately with #monsterdon that every week seems to outdo the last in terms of “yep, worst. movie. ever.” but hey, we signed up for this 🤣

Have a fantastic week everyone! Do well. Do good.

@dogwelder @Louisa they fumbled that reveal so bad. "yeah, it was larry. oh well" #monsterdon

#monsterdon did we watch Gappa before? This is incredibly familiar- I think the plot might also be the plot of a Gamera? I know we had pretty lady ukelele boat cold open in Mantango already.

The main attraction is sexism!
Two movies in a row where an old man has a model made over a possible volcano.
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

@jonny exactly my thought

#monsterdon

@lalah This is an excellent question.

#monsterdon

@apLundell They could've called it "Three Weeks Later."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

The tedious old man, the menacing rapist, and dull plot sunk what could have been an interesting telepathic zombie film. Ah well. Thanks, @Taweret, @Cherizilla and @JoeWynne for the chance to share a partially irradiated future #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Most importantly, what did any of that have to do with the year 2889?!?

The wildlife on that island is Gigantic!

#Monsterdon

It's like this guy's never even seen Jurassic Park...

#Monsterdon

Playmate, Inc? Is this safe for work?

#Monsterdon #Gappa

After that last one the color on this looks *amazing*

#Monsterdon

Playmate land? The magazine or the toy manufacturer?
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

@kcarr2015 But we did get to see the Horta's love interest, tho?!... Matthew tells me there's a 1 Danny Devito limit! #MonsterDon

Well, that's another #Monsterdon in the can. Many thanks as always to @Taweret for organizing this every week, and @miru for the stream.

Have fun all y'all that are staying on for Gappa!

#monsterdon I had my previous post about the monster being fiance-Larry all cued up so I could gloat, but they never really did a reveal did they

I think they said it was Larry? But barely, in the rush to end the movie

🦖#MONSTERDON Goodbye!

Ugh, the real monsters were the movie-makers! But thanks to all of you in the Real-Time Film Analysis Squad for saving this 90 minutes!

❤️ And thank you so much @Taweret for hosting tonight's strange-sounding slog. We do this to ourselves. But your weekly hosting efforts are always appreciated!

🅱️ and thanks @cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite: "Dancing" because that was a real weird scene.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I wish we'd watched this version instead. https://tubitv.com/movies/493011/the-day-the-world-ended

#monsterdon
#intheyear2889

watching Kaz Rowe's history videos on YT and doing the crossword for the rest of the night to create a protective updraft in my brain

#monsterdon

I forgot Gappa had a jaunty little theme song.
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

@Configures
Oh, I think I just looked away while typing. That was maybe the most sudden ending of all of #Monsterdon

I'm gonna call the ongoing discussion on what was happening to the mutated humans Scientific Curiosity, and that's a win I guess, except that I had to watch this movie.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889 #MonsterdonBingo

@davesdogmaggie Godmonster was goddamn cinema next to this

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

RE: https://retro.pizza/@CactuarJoe/116751737528073774

15 votes and we're still at 100% Awful. How long will it hold? :D #Monsterdon

I was a bit behind the rest of you but I made it to the beginning. Wow that was bad.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Move over Godmonster of Indian Flats, there’s a new sheriff in town. And by sheriff I mean worst movie.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon And what was the point of the weird gun?

So it had an awkward extra-large magazine.

But why? Either in-universe or from a film-making perspective, why? How many shots did he fire? Three?

I'll bet the direction just owned that gun and thought it was really bad-ass.

G A P P A ! !
#Monsterdon #Gappa #TheTriphibianMonster

I didn’t like that movie. It was boring, and none of the characters were redeemable. Maybe Joanna and Steve, but only just barely. Tim and Jada should have hooked up. Still, it was fun watching with you all!

As always, thanks to @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for the bingo card, @JoeWynne for the drink recipe and trivia, @ryan for the live stream, @paco for data analysis at https://gallery.don.monster, @combatwombat for the replay, and all of you for making it awesome!

#Monsterdon

@blue clean water kills monsters so use clean water.

#monsterdon

@jonny "strokelike dialogue choices" xD

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

If any of yall can stay up, we are about to have a good movie over on @miru with Gappa the Triphibian Monster
https://miru.miyaku.media/
#Monsterdon

oh no... ANOTHER DIORAMA

#Monsterdon #WrongYear

SEE, you should have stood your ground when he tried to grab your gun the first time

#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

Closure: NONE! The BEGINNING! So you can have a horrible Garden of Eden, cliché "and the planet was Earth" ending. Fuck this whole thing. Everyone is poorer for having seen this film.

You know what did this well? The World, the Flesh and the Devil (1959). That was a GOOD take on post-apocalypse breeding, and ends in THE BEGINNING but it's not shit.

#monsterdon #year2889

Here we go! Its #GAPPA

#Monsterdon2 #monsterdon

they really could have had a similar plot but had Larry protecting Johanna from the creepy guys and then tragically get rained on. still wouldn't have been great, but better than this.

but we got this instead

#monsterdon

It's very funny watching everyone posting to confirm yes that is how the movie in fact ended

#monsterdon

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

This one was an all time stinker. Absolutely the pits.

@TerryHancock there's one last shot of Steve and Joanna holding hands and an ending card that says "The Beginning", but that's basically it.

#Monsterdon

Wut???
The Beginning? #Monsterdon

Shit, and not all the monsters died

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I hope we've all learned an important lesson of some sort or whatever

#monsterdon

Wait, so who is left? Steve, Joanna, and radioactive fog dad? Anyone else?

#Monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

And they fucked off into the beginning.

Thanks for hosting, @Taweret

#Monsterdon

Thanks for a fun time of Frogs: The End of the World
#monsterdon  

#monsterdon

🎶 In the yeeeeaaaaaar 2889
was a film from 1969
and iffn' monsterdon viewers stay alive
/hums a few more bars, I got nothin'

The Beginning (of the budget running out) #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I'm supposed to be creepy but really I just have a red shirt.

#monsterdon

wow, that was like the most room temperature glass of water of a movie i've ever seen in my life

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

You call it To beginning, I call it

-fin

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Welp. Then they fucked, I guess.

Thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon

FINALLY!!!! Wait, that was the end of the movie??
#Monsterdon

and we fucked off into THE BEGINNING

now let's forget this film ever existed.

actually, no, let's remember it's BAD and never watch it again.

#monsterdon

Poor Larry. Poor plot. #Monsterdon

They didn't even walk into the ocean. Welp, thanks as always @Taweret

#monsterdon

The movie just kinda stops after it rains... Fuck off movie!
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Mickey is pretty straightforward here. Not hiding anything. Maybe stop him before he kills again?

#Monsterdon

Well that was abrupt.

#Monsterdon

Those are the quietest gunshots I've ever heard.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

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

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Oh thank god it's over

#Monsterdon

And suddenly over, as is tradition.

#Monsterdon

I'm thinking about how that poor radioactive chipmunk couldn't drink from his water dispenser... Poor Chipzilla.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Noo! It needs to be the end!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

oh FUCK you, movie

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@jonny holy cow like that!

#Monsterdon 📅 ⏩ ⚛️ 💣 💥 🧟 🧟‍♀️ 🧌 😱

Prepper dad sure is slow with his secret revolver.

#Monsterdon

I too was created to live in a contaminated atmosphere (the internet)

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"It was Larry" noooooooooo REALLY?? #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

FUCK NO!!!!!!!!

#Monsterdon

THATS IT? #monsterdon

#monsterdon this movie is so visually uninteresting I'm actually finding it hard to riff

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
#monsterdon #intheyear2889

It was Larry. I knew it!

#Monsterdon

Foley guy does it again.

#Monsterdon

Well, that was bad, wasn't it?
#monsterdon

#monsterdon lol what the FUCK

How DARE you end like that!!!!!!!

Are the mutants made of the same stuff as the Wicked Witch of the West?
