Bring the kid and the nurse back in right away. I want to show them these dead bodies.

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

I do hope that all generals' offices have full wood paneling

@Zerofactorial probably too early fir submarine military humor. #Monsterdon

Stellar Funky Chicken Performance by those men in orange! #Monsterdon

Bomb! Everyone out!

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

if the alien had evolved even slightly better surgical techniques to not leave a visible scar on the back of people's necks humanity would stand no chance #monsterdon

Good thing the alien implants didn't give them enhanced strength. #monsterdon

Kung fu! Or something.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon they want our copper

how prescient

#monsterdon We're only starting an hour late this time!!

Bet old Bibi wished he could kill his agents at the press of a button when they had failed their missions

#monsterdon

Ahahahaha omg wtf lmao #monsterdon #invadersfrommars1986

Oh, no. Mom is using the ZombieGaze(TM) again.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Rinaldi! Bring me a fully cooked plate of pasta!

When doing the worm goes bad #monsterdon

@yatsu There was Private Benjamin.

#Monsterdon

Tomas Geiger wants it to be perfectly understood that he had nothing to do with this movie.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon See should have tried a cigar

Woman in fatigues. Seems anachronistic for the 80's? Or just a surprisingly progressive view of gender compared with the nurse?

#Monsterdon

Generals always personally question suspected enemy agents. #monsterdon

Does this kid have a a high rank in the military or something? #monsterdon

Good thing that other fella's been taking Ninja night classes.

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars

oh, hell yeah! #monsterdon

Sudden action hero!

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars

ACTION SIDEKICK! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon I kind of want to see the General put out his cigar on the back of one of these guys' necks (to test if it stops the mind control)

how lucky the general had Mr Action Hero as his adjutant. #monsterdon

A lady? In the military?? Now I've seen everything! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon is that "mad dog" or was that someone else

Act cool... Act cool... #monsterdon

@paco It’s a portable cigar. #Monsterdon

Is that a terrible portrait of Eisenhower behind the general?
In the 80s?
#monsterdon

#monsterdon People getting sucked under the sand? Someone should talk to Ed! Get off your knees Ed!

Wait, the general is buying this child's story? with no evidence? And how did he get in there?!

#monsterdon

omg i lost it at the surprise attack from the General's adjutant

#monsterdon

Blow it, get it? Because it’s a bomb? And it blows? #monsterdon

#Monsterdon ...general wilson?

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

Is that a grenade lighter?

#monsterdon why not use the dildo excavating thing like in the school furnace? Or an alien bomb.

look, there's a woman in the army! in 1986! amazing.
#monsterdon

Definitely, George Gardner's son.

#Monsterdon

So take some troops, grab the techs and check their necks. #monsterdon

Loving all the Hitchcock, and X-Files copied every exterior shot of the base #monsterdon

@bunnyhero https://youtu.be/OcEi2o8g2L0 #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Of course I'm a general!
I have a cigar and everything.

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

Yep pretty sure NASA has liquid oxygen trucks stored outside their secret development bases

#Monsterdon COPPER HILL
COPPER WIRING
COPPER(s) VIOLENCE

IT ALL CONNECTS ON MY RED STRING BOARD

Glancing at my watch waiting for them to roll in the tanks to Copper Hill

#Monsterdon

KID RADIO ENGINEER MOMENT #monsterdon

Me at work this year: "Let's just get the hell out of this crazy place."

#Monsterdon

Man, these instances dumping a ton of posts from 50 minutes ago is really annoying.

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars

#Monsterdon why did the martian drill bit come interrupt them if the cops were working for the martians already? just wanted to get in directly and they were collateral damage?

@diazona SpaceX does better explosions, tho'

#monsterdon

Fun* idea:
- Some way to easily tag posts with the timestamp of the movie they are based on

- Embed the comments as hyperlinks in a streaming online version of the movie

*probably very technically challenging and I'm not volunteering because I am not smart about that stuff

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

Doggo!

@SnoopJ I missed that! Chekhov’s General #monsterdon

All the best bombs are made with kitchen timers. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

This general's office is very weird who is that supposed to be a portrait of?

people being sucked above the sand too, this whole town is a sexpit

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986 #monsterdong

#monsterdon Mars needs cheap stolen copper. Attack the houses! We need Coax! Power lines! We landed in Copper Hill, but the entire area is a MISNOMER!

I mean even from the very beginning I was thinking, man, this is the exact same plot, and it took me way too long to remember the name of the first film

sometimes I'm kind of slow

I blame the weed

#monsterdon

NASA always has the best fog machines

#Monsterdon

Huh, I think we had a kitchen timer like the one his dad put on that bombe.

#monsterdon

Adults giving this kid so many liberties he might as well be Little Orphan Annie #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Did the alien just make a joke????

"I don't have much time" he says as he starts a cigar that will take a good 20-30 minutes to smoke. #monsterdon

I wonder what the big alien brain is doing right now

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon "it's okay we're the police. we're here to help" *both draw their guns and advance*

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

Srsly Karen Black is worse than useless at least in the original the child psychologist was smart and cool

because every NASA administrator carried around a briefcase full of explosives in the 1980s. #monsterdon

And some day we'll find it

The Pendleton - Vandenberg connection

The jarheads, the space nerds, and me

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon ahhhhh they have a thing that looks like the old movie's martian brain

#Monsterdon Wouldn't it suck if the aliens had gotten smarter since the first possessed people and just placed their mind control chip somewhere covered up by most people's clothing? Like it's on your chest or something.

Why does that 11 year old boy have a varsity jacket? #Monsterdon

Looks rather wireless to me actually #monsterdon

@Crazypedia Because he’s certainly not been compromised at this point. #Monsterdon

I have to see the back of your neck! If you're an Anglican bishop, that's the only way to know which diocese you represent!

#IYKYK
#monsterdon

you sure could put a lot of Stuff into those NASA tankers

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

Ah yes let's talk to the general of this NASA facility. #monsterdon

Of course, General Wilson my bff #monsterdon

This whirling practical effect, on the other hand, looks dopey #monsterdon

spill it david

#monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

“It’s okay. We’re the police. We’re here to help.” And then they draw their guns and point them at the people they’re purporting to help. Checks out.

#Monsterdon

Pretty good blinkenlights

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon My god they combined a Sam Watterston and an R. Lee Ermey

#Monsterdon You know if I saw the sand eaten people here I would assume it's too late for the Marine Corps (and then I would make a joke about Marine CORPSE)

Yup! There's Chesty Puller's portrait on the wall. Nice touch.

#monsterdon

They're doing the rock lobster! I was in the #80s. I know this.

#b52s
#monsterdon

@bunnyhero If I had a dim... nuthin! #Monsterdon

MORE COPPER - this means something.

#Monsterdon #InvadersFromMars1986

the dialogue makes me think this was written for a high school boy and his nurse, but then the execs made them change it to elementary school. #monsterdon

ooo, speaking of Terminator 2 as I was earlier, big old tanker of liquid nitrogen!

#monsterdon

One of my favorite things about these movies is the unfettered access everyone has to high ranking military officials. #Monsterdon

i would've been thirty miles out of town by this point

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

tbh other than working at the base I'm not even sure what George Gardner does. It might have said and I missed it

I mean it probably doesn't matter but he must have some position if you can get the General's attention and he will presumably take your shit about aliens in quicksand seriously

#Monsterdon 🔴 👽 👽 --> 🌎 🧟‍♀️ 😱

Fake earthquake effect!

tell him the commies have a mole machine

#monsterdon

Oh look, more #satisfactory props with all that copper wire.

Must be a copper node nearby.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Suddenly we figured out how they finished The Big Dig in Boston, that's how... ;)

Wow she at least sort of believes him and is actively helping him. #monsterdon
