Oh he's into miniature dioramas. I hope we get Kaiju style diorama damage later. #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

#monsterdon guy survives the nuclear apocalypse and builds his house on top of a volcano

@bunnyhero I'm thinking it ends like On the Beach. Everyone dead / waiting for the radiation cloud to get 'em. Also, the old homeowner doesn't realize the rules are changing. But I love his little model and explanation! #monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

Berlin, Paris, Moscow, all silent.

But good thing we're isolated & rich, we'll be fine!

Don't open the door! I'm going to open that door!

I only planned for 3 people!

Pfft.

#monsterdon #year2889

Wow, everyone is hot to get into this one particular house.

I feel like this script would have worked better so far if they were in a bunker?

#monsterdon

Dude, wut?

Why is this scene?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I can tell this isn't getting any better. Blaze on. #monsterdon

CLIF!

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

WELCOME TO LEAD HOUSE

DO NOT LICK IT

#monsterdon

I spent 10 years on this model but sadly didn't do anything else
#monsterdon  

Spent 10 years and stored up supplies for 3 people for a couple of months

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

#monsterdon wait, did the old guy just admit he was planning the nuke war for 10 years?

A new civilization with four men and two women- and one of the men is father to one of the women. That's gonna go great.

"I don't understand.... can you explain it again in PowerPoint?"

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon old guy: "the 6 of us this house may be the beginning of a new era"

So it's time to pair up and continue the human race, if you know what I mean. I've got my eye on Steve

“I’m afraid he didn’t make it...There’s always hope”
Sir, pick one please #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

The old man is a little too enthusiastic about restarting civilization, if you ask me. #monsterdon

the few of us may be the start of a new civilization

fucking slow down there, columbus

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Boy, could this guy be any more like Hugh Farnham?

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

Don't open the door. There are missionaries out there. Probably zombie ones. #monsterdon

@paco
You need to spend more time in the shadows of neighborhoods in the evenings.
I would imagine.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"not for long, I'm afraid" (dad character shoots man)

#monsterdon

This guy delivers his lines like he’s reading the news.

#Monsterdon

That's not the fourth side. It's the same side as some of the cliffs.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

We ought to think through
what are the bad things
that could happen,
and what are the good things
that could happen
that we need to be ready for

#Monsterdon

Los Angeles is destroyed because this movie was made there & e/o was so ashamed of themselves for doing so. #Monsterdon

"I'm afraid your brother's radioactive sperm is totally unsuitable for starting our new race."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

How long before I can get back to an obviously bombed out city?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Is the year 2889, or 1970 when the nuclear bombs dropped?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"Some of us may be dying right now."

Dude, I have some news for you. You're all dying right now. It's just that some of you might be doing it faster.

#monsterdon

"This isn't the way I planned it! I only have enough provisions for three people!" Boondocks predicted this..
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

wouldn't the others get sick from the radioactive guy? and where is Larry?? #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 📅 ⏩ ⚛️ 💣 💥 🧟 🧟‍♀️ 🧌 😱

wait he made Steve his second in command rather than his daughter?

That guy must really be from LA if he can't believe it's been wiped out.

#monsterdon

So. Many. Roentgens. #Monsterdon

This is like the American version of all those movies that were nothing but people standing around a pub in Scotland

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I myself have different absorption rates and capacities and also am dying now.

#monsterdon

okay liberal, every one has their special snowflake body that dies from radiation poisoning in its own special time

#monsterdon

"My second in command will be..." Your daughter, who you've had ages to prepare and train for the apocalypse? "Steve, this guy I met an hour ago."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

The Six Suburbs have finally found their urb.

#Monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

I presume there's going to be a moment when the movie being called In the Year 2889 will make total sense

#monsterdon

There's no Los Angeles. Only the smog is left behind.

#Monsterdon

Some of us may be dying now.

Yeah. Like me. With this dialog.

#monsterdon The rest of us will die later.

"You can leave whenever you want, take off!"

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Oh this movie definitely requires a drink to get through, I can already tell.

6 ice cubes
6 pineapple chunks
some pineapple juice
cover the ice in Midori
add a splash of Bacardi rum just cause
fill the rest of the glass with Mountain Dew

Seedling Squeezings Juice I concocted a few weeks ago.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Oh no, I used radiation absorption as my dump stat. ​:d8:​

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Grampa bot only has a few lines.

"No, you can't stay."
"Where is my State Fair spoon?"
"Cannot load file GRMPA1.BIN"

#Monsterdon

"We may live. We may not." Did you ... want to ... look up prior research? #Monsterdon

[lord farquaad voice] some of you may die...

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

End of the world movie that is just 6 extremely awkward moments between strangers
#monsterdon  

i hope this ends up like the crowded cabin scene in A NIGHT AT THE OPERA

#monsterdon

Spoiler - they are all dead

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

All of you are dying now, bud.

#Monsterdon

I'M THE MAN. ME, I'M THE BIGGEST MAN OUT OF ALL OF US. I'M OLDER AND ALSO RICHER AND ALSO I FEEL EMASCULATED RIGHT NOW WITH ALL OF THE OTHER PEOPLE HERE.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

He's a prepper, but he accepts reality very quickly. I guess he's one in a million.

#Monsterdon

"My second-in-command will be Steve."

#Monsterdon

Please don’t try to science, movie.

#Monsterdon

'Lifeboat ethics' was an _extremely_ hot topic in the early 1960s. To their credit, some religious leaders, notably Catholic, insisted that it were better to bet on decency toward the stranger than a simplistic survival-calculus.

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

Oh dear. 6 at the table so provisions last half as long. #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I would also vote for me.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

you’re all ripping on the dad but he actually built his bunker entirely out of *leaded* glass #monsterdon

I’m choosing to believe that this whole intro scene is a riff on The Unexpected Party chapter in The Hobbit

#Monsterdon

"Well, I'm with you fellers!"

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

#monsterdon No! I'll have to shoot him! Damn, I guess I'll shoot some neighbor children… grumble grumble…

He lives on the cliff and ranches sideways cows.

#Monsterdon

No problems with food, I guess. Or Moonshine.

So we're just gonna let everyone stay, then? Cool, cool, cool.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"Oh fuck it. If it's TED then I guess my 'no guests causing us to starve' policy is off the table, so to speak."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

They're eating dinner like a family but nobody said grace. #Monsterdon

Lol the music and the audio are definitely not the same volume😂
#Monsterdon

gramps just admit it you've lost control of the party mansion, give in to the disco teens #monsterdon

#NoHeCantStay 👴

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

we're all going to die anyway

well isn't someone optimistic

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

#monsterdon

I like the conceit of a radio broadcast after the apocalypse. An announcer with no real new information, cut off, basically just saying goodbye to the world.

"Stop inviting people to squat at my private eden!" #Monsterdon

A rancher who lives nearby? But he's got cows. They're extra provisions!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

That was a fun little tackle. Let’s be frens now.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Velveeta is to cheese what dialog is to this movie.

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

THERE IS NO ROOM AT THE INN

#monsterdon

I'm sensing a recurring theme here.

#Monsterdon

The girl, yes! The man, no!

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I wonder if they keep having to shoot the house at angles that hide the other houses a hundred feet away.

"Sure."

@annathepiper Or the "Man in a Hat Looking Around" sequence.

Welp, this planet ain't gonna repopulate itself. Guess I gotta take another swig and git on up thar.

Sir! That's all the hootch left in the whole world! That's all of humanity's hootch you're guzzling down!
