No Nixie tube displays? I call shenanigans! some future this is. #Monsterdon
AAAAA I love these space craft models. So so dorky #Monsterdon
rule 1 for the future: staff all critical functions with purple haired clone women
Oooh blue outfits! Things are finally getting interesting. #Monsterdon
1.5 million miles per second? They've got superluminal speed AND are able to be detected?
somebody watched some anime before they costumed this movie, i think.
I am DIGGING that music!
Ed Bishop, one of the primary "Rent-aYank" actors working in the UK 1960s-1980s
Thrilling funky music
It's hard to get hired on the moon if you don't have purple hair.
"This is a MAXIMUM security alert"
Pan zoom FTW
This may be the grooviest movie we've watched.
Acting coach: Now lets try it one more time... say it slowly after me: U. F. Oh. UUUU. EHFF. Oh.
Actor: 'Ewfoe'
@pngwen At first I thought the purple hair meant they were aliens because maybe aliens have purple hair but um I dunno.
1.5 million miles per second? Faster than light, by the way.
that music shows why the purple wigs are necessary, it's all about damping the static funk so the computers don't crash
I think there is room for more antennas on SID. #monsterdon
the most important thing for super secret SHADO radar and radio agents is to have shiny eyelashes!
Marital aid one, ready for take off.
Feels like Austin Powers is about to jump out!
@fabio ikr me too
I mean once you decide to lean into it you can *really* lean into it
C'mon, team, we trained for this #Monsterdon

Not that I don't enjoy watching the men be objectified in this film... #Monsterdon #InvasionUFO πΈπ½
I think(?) I have always wanted to see this movie. I remember the title from TV ads as a kid.

@trixter
If in the future women wear fishnet body suits, purple wigs, go-go boots, and cheerfully report to "Captain Sky Diver" ...
Does that mean that there is hope for humanity or is is Doomed...?

When the lights go blinky you slide down the chute!!
Now we're talking. That's the jam I want to hear #Monsterdon #invasionUFO
#monsterdon I'm glad someone is thinking about the victims and their families .
Weeeeeee!
Oh fuck yeah we have military slides. Business time!
Tense music
#monsterdon I know why the aesthetics are similar, but I still keep thinking this is a Thunderbirds movie
I don't understand why the women on the moon base have to all look alike. It's interesting but I have questions.
#Monsterdon
You just can not beat Gerry's miniatures. #Monsterdon #invasionUFO
was that pilot painting?
#Monsterdon
Into the laundry chutes!
Is 8 a lot? It sounds like a lot. #Monsterdon
I am sorely disappointed that none of the dudes in this base crew are rocking purple hair.

Monster robot wolves with flashing red eyes are being used to scare off bears in Japan. They have 50 different sounds that can be heard a kilometer away.
Once they become assembly-line built, prices may reduce enough to be useful in chasing off people keeping you from watching Monsterdon.

I don't know the backstory here but the fan service is obvious.
We're just gonna go with it.
WHEEEEEEEE! #Monsterdon
oh shit check out girl's razor-sharp cut crease
Let's get this party started with a dance beat! #Monsterdon
Groovy launch m,usic.
#monsterdon #InvasionUFO
So is the purple hair part of the uniform or do they just all like the same band or something?
TO THE GUNDAMS!
the music tho
[SID] I have sent a security code to your SMS receiver. Please copy and paste it into the form so your instructions may be complied with. #monsterdon
Wait why do they need to exit by sliding down a tube.
I'm hearing about slutty space suits but I rudely was paying attention to the road when they aired. I just want you to know I'm imagining them to be quite slutty indeed
Cool chute jumping!
#Monsterdon #InvasionUfo mmm blinkenlights on moonbase
More purple hair than Tatsuya Ishida's nightmares
βWe built a plane which can fly into a transit orbit to the moon β seems like something someone might have noticed at some point over a decade. #Monsterdon
Everybody gets a slide in this movie #monsterdon
Thunderbirds are go!
How do they do this without wires?
Love the fuzzy blue pajamas.
#monsterdon #InvasionUFO
even in this movie universe, there are professionals whose job is to read the computer back to everyone.
#Monsterdon I cannot stand this main character
I'm gonna guess a Connery-era Bond movie
Oh right, I always forget SID says YOU EFF OH and is like the only one to say it that way
There's an RFC for that somewhere, I'm sure #monsterdon #InvasionUFO
ngl i love the little chute

I would like my computer to say "Please pass me your code so I may comply with it"
Finally, somebody pronounced it U-F-O!
#Monsterdon
You know things are getting exciting when the dialog becomes mostly a string of numbers.
It sounds like what Iβm missing is amazing!
#monsterdon πΆ if yer looking for me, you better check up on the sea of tranquiiiiilllliiityy I'm on the mooooonbase..."
Computers always use a voice with tons of reverb and delay, it's a whole thing #monsterdon #InvasionUFO
I keep expecting to blink and for them all to turn into Thunderbird's-esque puppets.

SHADAIR? That is not very security minded..
confidently predicting that in the future every plane will look like the concorde #monsterdon

What kind of refreshments do you think they serve on SHADO Air? βοΈ

They use an awful lot of branding for a super secret organization.

The exec producer was Gerry Anderson, famous for "Thunderbirds" and "Supermarionation."
this guy has been a voice announcer in some other movie, dang it
Society when to heck ever since we abandoned the droop-snoot cockpits
Daisy?
#monsterdon The pacing of this movie is NUTS.
You know, studio execs having some secret alternate job would be nicer than just realizing they're just pieces of shit like they are in real life.
*waits for plane to explode*
"Don't ever tell me security is difficult. Sometimes it's too close too home."

Straker is such an absurd martinet. Such a British character, considering he's supposed to be an American.
@LingLass The most excitement weβve had in the movie so far! πΉ #Monsterdon
ooh I really like the moonbase color scheme.
"We're not actually a money losing TV production co, we're secretly funding the secret agency protecting earth from threats you can't be told about" is probably not the wildest tale the tax collectors have heard #Monsterdon
More like Chad Air, amirite? #monsterdon #InvasionUFO
βThink of the Children, brown-haired guy!!!β
so you see, the movie makes no sense because I was distracted by directing it by running an uber-top-secret planetary defense organization #monsterdon
