@whknott Still not over the failure of MKUltra in 1986 maybe?

#Monsterdon

nice boiler room floor but does it run doom?

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

So when does the Brain Bug show up? #Monsterdon

#monsterdon David will come to have strange inexplicable sexual hangups over weapons, camo, and big beefy men named Cleetus.

#Monsterdon at what point did pennies become mostly zinc? Because if those aliens DO eat copper, they'd fucking hate modern pennies

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

They really are using that table lamp as the only light source in the general's office

Wonder if they'll stock footage it up like the original :D #Monsterdon

"...damn it, tank attack isn't covered by our house insurance."

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars

Cue egghead scientist getting eaten as he tries to make peace? Stupid scientist. Peace never works.

#monsterdon

ok so while the plot might have been shifted around a bit, we do get the entire final 1/3 of the movie being ARMY MAN TIME as it was in the 60's version #monsterdon

People on here and in the movie keep saying "L O X" and I always figured it was pronounced lox (like the smoked fish). That's what I get for reading to expand my vocabulary as a kid and not trying to figure out how words actually sound.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon You know I know it would have made the scene less cool but they didn't even CHECK if the front door was locked they just busted the window open and broke in

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

Hahaha the blocks of explosive have a 'dangerous' label on them!

yaaaash HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT times :D

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

Marines have no qualms about killing Martians!
(That was their original motto, by the way - they ended up deciding something in latin would look punchier on their logo...)

#monsterdon

So these aliens are like those guys that break into abandoned homes and buildings and steal the pipes. Is that the plot? #Monsterdon

Just because they're illegal aliens, right General?

#Monsterdon

David's getting like twice as many lines as he's entitled to in this remake #monsterdon

@yatsu must be a perspective movie #sideeye #Monsterdon

Soooo are adults gonna be able to see any of the alien infrastructure this time? #monsterdon

@wohali You know more things than me.

#Monsterdon

Yay! Monster!

#monsterdon

does this version have masers? this version should have masers.

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

Tobias Menzies Memorial School

#Monsterdon

Oh boy that's the signal the start of the action part of the movie!

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

"And this is Linda Magnusson, a friend of David's" <-- how you introduce the grown woman who is accompanying a 10yo boy.

#Monsterdon Marines have no qualms about killing martians

is that like part of boot camp?

Bold move showing a NASA spaceship exploding in 1986...

#Monsterdon

BOOOOOM

One of Elon's bug new rockets or something I guess #Monsterdon

Don't worry kid, we're totally gonna murder your parents. #monsterdon

"...Marines have no qualms about killing Martians!"
"That's ... an odd thing to say?"

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars

The tunnels, of course, that’s why we get the Martian Rave Tunnel here #monsterdon

#Monsterdon nice! some action

#Monsterdon

"Ok, research team guys, we're just going to do 40 more takes of the death throws...action!"

FINALLY ...

TANKS!
#monsterdon

marines have no qualms about killing anybody, i mean, it's kind of the job

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

Great line read general XD #Monsterdon

She doesn't just fail to check her review mirror, she has no peripheral vision either. #monsterdon

@aburka You're watching that Fawlty Towers episode where the car gets a damned good thrashing?! #Monsterdon

this older scientist military guy with the prosthetics on to make him look older is stealing every scene that he's in the background of #monsterdon

And you are down one rocket 🚀 :kaboom:

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

Andy Warhol shows up as a consultant to NASA. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon we're gonna find out this movie is sponsored by someone who believes all electronics should use gold instead of copper

#monsterdon “Lets get screwed, by aliens, in our necks…”

Not really a Saturn Five rocket anymore. More of a Saturn floor. #Monsterdon

33 years makes all the difference in production values and bombast #monsterdon

#monsterdon shooting at the giant tube of liquid Oxygen is always a good idea.

guess the delay is a little more than "temp" at this point. #monsterdon

Just like a Russian test launch!
#monsterdon

I think I've got the Martians' motivation: they're just really into mean practical jokes #monsterdon

Big wheels rollin'

Big wheels rollin'

Movin' on

Big wheels rollin'

Got NASA 'splodin'

Big wheels rollin'

Movin' on!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Fuck you and your space trip!!!! 🖕

Why a graphic? Why? #Monsterdon

Restricted area where they shoot without warning and a single guard on the gate, nice planning boys.

#monsterdon

@paco To be fair, it’s a small room, and there wasn’t much else to do. #Monsterdon

Is that a portrait of himself behind his desk?

#monsterdon

You just had a perimeter breach that's not a Temporary freeze anymore

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

The General is right!

Hard to believe they would still want to launch a rocket with sabotage going on

#monsterdon

bandaids! #monsterdon

why do we have a wireframe truck when we surely have cameras on the runway...? #monsterdon

You Will Not Go To Space Today #monsterdon

#Monsterdon I don't know what any of those displays aside from the timer mean

I love the Battlezone-like graphics

#Monsterdon

"Lethal force will be used"

The lethal force: firing a maximum of 3 of shots at a truck (not the folks driving it though) with a small gun
#monsterdon

Please make him stop. Make the child stop. He collects pennies. He’s not cleared for top secret discussions. #Monsterdon

Ooh that LOX will make a big Boom #monsterdon

🚚

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

oh no! an L-O-X truck on the runway? Be sure to get the B-A-G-E-L semi and the S-A-L-M-O-N van!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

those guys both did a GREAT collapse into a twitchy heap!

That force was not very lethal, private

#Monsterdon

What do we do after finding extraterrestrial infiltration into NASA. Call the president? No, first we need to read this child in on classified Mars probe photos. #monsterdon

mr potato heads...AGAIN WITH THE BRANDING #monsterdon #InvadersFromMars86

venusian judo when

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

Kinda funny that Cydonia (the "Face on Mars") didn't merit a mention, though

#Monsterdon

"My god... Let's go!" (nobody follows)

#monsterdon

@Taweret or even a little foundation instead of a big ol bandaid yno #monsterdon

They’re neck screws! The jokes write themselves. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon a temperature freeze? In Celsius or Fahrenheit?

"...we still don't know what the hell we're dealing with here."
"Well, sir. That looks like maybe a ten penny nail."

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

KARATE CHOP!

@Taweret "please, most of the furniture is too good to be in this" - #SplendaDaddy
#Monsterdon

David needs to learn to shut the fuck up. #monsterdon

I need one of those “resesrch team” jumpsuits! #Monsterdon

That's a lot of serious putty

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

@amyfou glad that last word was there in that sentence! #Monsterdon

Plastique on a liquid oxygen tanker *would* be effective...

#Monsterdon

Oh boy! This is the good part!

MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER! MONSTER!

#monsterdon

Gosh, this is the worst action scene on the history of cinema
#monsterdon

It's a little hard to swallow people being sucked under the sand especially if you are Timothy Bottoms.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

No idea what all those blinky lights are doing

#Monsterdon If I were David I would not trust any of my father's coworkers or work associates by this point, even if they're from NASA

@yatsu This is uncharacteristically sensible for #Monsterdon

lol pyramids

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

General Wilson is trying to be badass like George C Scott, but he's not George C Scott #monsterdon

ah, the Millennium Project. obviously totally legit. #monsterdon

The one NASA scientist sounds too much like Ben Stein. 😬

#monsterdon

"...this is Dr. Stout, and this is Dr. Lager, and this is Dr. Pilsner."
