Everybody in the house: STEVE MARTIN?

#monsterdon

Let’s just chill next to this clearly radioactive dude—as long as we don’t touch him, it’s safe.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"Steve Morrow, he's my brother, Vic."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

:ohno: I'm late for #Monsterdon you go outside for a bit and lose track of time and before you know it it's the 29th century!

Diti I miss anything important? No? Cool.

740 Roentgens.. he should be dead!

YEAH. And so should you. Get away from the radiation source..

You should be dead that close that long!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Steve Morrow, I move like the Wind. #Monsterdon

Steve Martin? #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Definitely do NOT touch someone who is red hot with radioactivity.

#monsterdon

Never even heard of In the Year 2889, tonight's #Monsterdon.

In theory, this could be fun. Sixties sci-fi, directed by a self proclaimed shlockmeister. In practice, I am already confused. Seems like we just kind of jumped in mid-story with these people.

Is the outside environment lethal from radiation or not? C'mon, be consistent!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Oh Lordy, straight from the Donna Reed Show Peterson!
#monsterdon

STEVE MARTIN?!

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

#monsterdon That's TV's Radioactive Larry!

Here's hoping that the father is _not_ a fan of the story of Lot and his daughters.

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

Red hot with radioactivity so, y'know, you might want to not be kneeling next to him

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Those curtains are made out of a special space-age radiation-blocking material called linen

#monsterdon

#monsterdon better check the geiger counter before we kneel 6 inches away from this guy

OMFG I'VE SEEN THIS FILM BEFORE!!!! 🤯
The YouTuber Willie Muse did a really good video reacting to/ reviewing this film! Roflmaoooo
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

This stranger is over 700! #Monsterdon

Provisions for months? Miles away?
I don't think this will work at all
#monsterdon
#intheyear2889

the giger counter that will determine the nature of his ear goo

#monsterdon

He’s red hot with radioactivity!
#Monsterdon

"That's not Larry."

DID A CUCUMBER WRITE THIS!?

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

URAAAANIUM FEVER HAS DONE AND GOT ME DOWN

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

They are living the dream of the 1960s, that nuclear war would only hit the poor part of town.

#Monsterdon

That door made of glass and wood is the only thing preventing the radiation from getting in!

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"Nobody can take that much and still live."

What about us?!

#monsterdon

I'm glad they figured out it wasn't larry.
#monsterdon
#intheyear2889

You have to invite the Larry in. He's not allowed in otherwise. It's against the mutant code.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"It's not Larry"
"He'll do."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

#Monsterdon
Leon S. Kennedy!

Uh, what’s on his face?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon That's not Larry, that's **glorp glorp** LARRY

#monsterdon 632 (Todd) Rundgrens

i guess radiation turns everyone into monsters or something?

[remembers fallout exists] oh righttttt

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Maybe pull back the curtains first to look out?

#monsterdon
#InTheYear2889

When someone knocks & you're expecting someone, that's when the monsters show up. #Monsterdon

YOU IGNORED TWO NO SOLICITING SIGNS, YOU ASSHOLE. NOW GET OFF MY PROPERTY!

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

I’m guessing its not Larry

#Monsterdon

YOU HAVE CURTAINS ON YOUR DOORS

#Monsterdon

"The 3 of us"
Bro, too soon...
#Monsterdon

Mutant UPS guys of the nuclear apocalypse!

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Uh oh, Larry's gone feral

#monsterdon

My mob name is Joanna 3 Notes

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Provisions for months! #Monsterdon

"Provisions for the three of us for months!"

"There are only two of us."

"More chocolate for me!"

#Monsterdon

Ah. Conveniently isolated from all that terribleness. How convenient.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Is that the picture of Larry? No offense, honey, but you dodged a bullet there.

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@faoluin ME TOO

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

It’s 2889 and you’re obsessed with a guy named LARRY???? Dang, patriarchy truly just sticks around, doesn’t it though

#Monsterdon

She couldn't...open the shades?!

#monsterdon

"He's certainly dead, but at least there's hope. "
Is hope the name of your moonshinedistillery? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 📅 ⏩ ⚛️ 💣 💥 🧟 🧟‍♀️ 🧌 😱

updrafts of air to fight the radiation? I feel like updrafts would just make it worse?

They live better after a holocaust than I do normally.

#monsterdon

NO! It's Moe and Curly!!!

#Monsterdon

i KNEW i should have taken those piano lessons before the apocalypse #monsterdon

I don't knopw if the old guy is an actor, but he's pleasant enough. #monsterdon

"I'm sorry, honey, but I'm afraid he didn't make it. Probably died in agony, saying your name, wondering why you didn't save him. Alone. Bereft. Abandoned. Forlorn."

#Monsterdon

Oh I see, he used topology to create an eden amidst the epic destruction they had no budget to show us. #Monsterdon

Let's go inside for some light piano mourning and shoulder touching

#monsterdon

"you're telling me all the piano tuners are DEAD?!"

#monsterdon

"not without larry."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"I'm afraid there's no hope. Larry's definitely dead and not coming back.
But there's always hope."

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@Taweret and those who still had jobs would still have to go to fucking work 💀 #monsterdon

That's quite the receiver that can get all of New York, Paris, _and_ Moscow. I mean, I know shortwave got range, but dang.

Also sorry lady, Larry's dead. Or worse.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

#monsterdon updrafts to fight bank radiation! Of course, why didn't I think of that

@bunnyhero birds seem to be doing well #monsterdon

#monsterdon

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

clearly the birds were fine

She's the Juliet of this piece. #Monsterdon

Good to know that grand pianos survived to 2889. Wonder how often they get that thing tuned.

#monsterdon

Larry didn’t come 👀

#monsterdon

In nearly 900 years from now, they’ll go through a nostalgic period where they style everything after the mid 20th century.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon there's a special kind of bad acting in a movie that makes you think, did they film this in another language?

Wait, did I download an episode of Fantasy Island?
#Monsterdon

wait didn't I see this movie

but with Brendan Fraser

#monsterdon

#monsterdon 47 whats

#monsterdon Finally traffic is rational!

Apparently KGBE is a real station
#monsterdon   

So let me get this straight …

3 billion people wiped out by nuclear hellfire, but this lovely home in the Hollywood Hills was untouched?

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

i'm getting robot monster vibes here

#monsterdon

I'm calling it, boring dialog ✅

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

FORTY SEVEN?!

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

@diazona A nuke that targets the human genome. #Monsterdon #InTheYear2889 🎥🧻

900 years in the future and fashion hasn't changed

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

Was that a War of the Worlds broadcast? Why are people not under total overcast? #Monsterdon

"Larry didn't come? Did you try cupping his balls?"

#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

"Larry didn't come" "Yeah, that's a problem some men have, you've got to be underst"

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

And now we cut to a walking simulator in an old man's back yard.
#Monsterdon #InTheYear2889

good thing those bombs didn't kick up any dust

#Monsterdon

shitloads of birds and rich domesticated plantlife still viable, ecosystem seems fine #monsterdon

HAR-old! HAR-old fenton mudd have you been listening to TALK RADIO again?!

#monsterdon #InTheYear2889

The gross underestimation of human population growth always surprises me in these old movies #Monsterdon
