I love that they keep peppering the dialog with 60s phrases, ya dig? #Monsterdon
We gotta do the hero thing and check this jazz out.
I'd much rather listen to an hour of jazz. It can be the most experimental jazz noodling ever.
... and a non-dead creature!
normally I'd be delighted to see a goofy monster
An extra-terrestrual! #Monsterdon
"[latin-type music playing]" #monsterdon #invasionofthestarcreatures
Veggie monster sighting!
@mortaine Enough people watch #Monsterdon on Tubi that you'll still be in good company, at least
@floatybirb Yes it is like The Deer Hunter.
I dig.
So: the sergeant's personality is he uses hep cat teenage slang? Is that it?
Indigenous rock? Do you mean igneous?
(I'm pretty sure we have a geologist in the house, but it's not me)
#monsterdon just like eating in NYC during lockdown
βItβs radioactive.β *Proceeds to have a meeting right next to it.
was that a scooby doo gag?
#monsterdon
You know how much this cave set cost? You bet we're going to use it. Again, and again, and again ...
First (dead) creature!
Mind you, I'm still unclear on why we're in a cave at all...
Bring on the yackety sax
@wohali my money's on a blooper reel #monsterdon
I wonder what vintage that wine is.. #monsterdon
I AM GROOT
#Monsterdon did they have sex?
I'm watching on tubi, so I'll be out of sync as ads crop up.... Sigh. #monsterdon
Oh good. Someone finally killed the sorting hat. #Monsterdon #InvasionOfTheStarCreatures
Oh my god, now it's a scooby doo episode.
#monsterdon
Snake Dumbskin? We've heard of you, we heard you were dead! #WrongQuote #WrongMovie #MOnsterdon
I was _almost_ going to give them half a point for the cave floor not being completely flat.
And then it turns out to be a low-grade scooby-doo joke.
#Monsterdon damn anti-maskers
#Monsterdon π± π₯ π½ π π₯ π₯ πΆββοΈ πΆββοΈ
why
Bark? Looks like burlap #monsterdon
#Monsterdon is being interrupted by a phone call from an elderly relative seeking tech support for their Kindle.
I'm not pausing, just turning down the volume on the TV.
Indigenous rock. Yanno, first nations. Indian.
actor starts to whoop and holler in a racist way
everyone else pelts them to death with the stones
...I was JOKING about the whole Scooby Doo cave, guys. Stop that. #Monsterdon
Iβve seen better caves in Star Trek: The Original Series.
The theremin is kinda nice.
#monsterdon Having a joke about removing gas masks immediately followed by a serious scene about ... removing gas masks is a bold choice
lol, who eats chicken like that, and why are we watching them eat chicken.
Are we going Absurdist?
"This cave has been here a long time. All kinds of things have been filmed here!"
Suddenly - picnic!
#monsterdon I'd cry if I shot a snake too
π¦#MONSTERDON ποΈ
Is there a line of film production crews constantly at this cave?
"The air's okay sergeant!"
I tested it by taking my mask off and taking a deep breath! #Monsterdon
The whole #monsterdon thing is especially amusing to me, as it occurs at Monday lunchtime and I enjoy it vicariously through people bemoaning something different on the TL for a while.
Ummm...guys...It's the chicken that is poison!
okay to be fair, you can't eat lunch on your lunch break if you're wearing your gas mask
Our intrepid company, I mean, um platoon, I mean um, squad, I mean um, fire team, I mean um... line of goofballs marches through a bolder strewn wasteland. We encounter our first non wandering monster, a cute rattlesnake, and kill it, because this is America.
But because Americans are human too, the guy who kills it is sad because he never killed anything; I presume he is in the army because of conscription or to pay off his student loans.
@_L1vY_ Oh, you owe _two_ apologies now.
oh hell no. you are not gonna eat on camera on top of all this
These arenβt the protagonists, right? #monsterdon
This is like Three Stooges meets early MASH episodes π
@miriamrobern Yes it is surprisingly sophisticated and the precursor of postmodernism.
People still donβt understand how masks work. Very believable.
The Mandalorian eating method, nice #monsterdon
So much phallic reference: water hose, bent candle, sword, wine bottle. #monsterdon
@kev you have saved yourself a LOT of pain #monsterdon
@jorgaborg A bunch of people watch a terrible movie all at the same time and make snarky comments under the hashtag #monsterdon
okay I always enjoy when a movie includes a trip to bronson's cave
...Huh, scooby doo cave interior. #Monsterdon
Jumping into #monsterdon 15 minutes late. Iβm sure I can pick up the important bits.
@ohiofi That will seriously endanger your life. #monsterdon
#monsterdon The drunk stumbling in this film is the inspiration for us all to get equally as drunk, so we can enjoy it.
Isn't it hilarious to imagine this on someone's resume?
That is the tastiest looking chicken ever.
#monsterdon where's buster keaton when you need him...
#Monsterdon is this a date?
@miriamrobern All signs point to "No."
That colonel really loves Gun safety the way he waves the pistol at his guys like that.
@CactuarJoe@retro.pizza Yeah, the movie keeps going
#InvasionOfTheStarCreatures #Monsterdon
Lots of totally real boulders just laying about. Hmm. Whatever might they be for? #Monsterdon
Is that the cave of the Blood Beast?????
We have arrived at the big hole.
i'm starting to think i'm going to find this movie pretty funny at multiple points, which says absolutely nothing about the objective quality of the humor, only about me
(and maybe how stressed out i've been all week)
Good ol' gas masks fer radiation
@srol #monsterdon the subtitles should be saying [stock wacky hijinks music] instead
#Monsterdon
And the cartoonish dialog just keeps coming.
This isn't just "camp", it's a "spoof".
The cave mouth looks familiar somehow #monsterdon
The clown music is my cue to do my taxes #monsterdon
At the risk of sounding too much like current events in the US, I did not vote for this film... #monsterdon
"...and then we'll do the gas mask gag."
"Are you sure that's a thing?"
"No?"
#monsterdon If it's any consolation, this was voted "Worst vegetable related sci fi movie ever made." so, there's a category, you know more than you did, and you're a little worse off for it.
The beatnik sergeant slays me.
#monsterdon
@miriamrobern _Clearly not_.
Remember to put your gas mask on before assisting others.
are these... real actors?
Uh oh.. the music changed... #monsterdon
@trixter The various collections of facial hair are the real stars
"I never killed anything before!"
Other than the entire momentum of this film, which was already well below the speed limit
@apLundell A year, so the statute of limitations wasn't up? How come these guys weren't cort marshaled or something. #MonsterDon
i actually find this hilarious. (re the melodrama over the snake.)
**what is this movie lol I love it #monsterdon #invasionofthestarcreatures
"i never killed anything before"
no, i think you're about to have several fatalities on your hands, but we keep watching nonetheless.
#monsterdon
@brooke is this a prequel for Idiocracy? Maybe it's that dude's grandpa.
#Monsterdon
#Monsterdon If this is funny or die I choose die.
#Monsterdon #InvasionoftheStarCreatures1962 And the award for biggest ham goes to ....
