Do we know anything about the real octopus in the early part of the movie? Was it on loan from someplace? Did it go home safely? #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Welp, that's it everyone -- hope everyone had a blast! Thanks as always to @Taweret and everyone in the #monsterdon #teamOctopus crew. :blobheartcat:​

See you next Sunday!

woa, this new breed of women, eh #monsterdon

My note: More octopus, less humans
#Monsterdon

...Now Pete reaches across the table and kisses the doctor, right? #Monsterdon

geugh. #monsterdon

@strangefour That's #Monsterdon for you

"...and D, for douche. Yes, that's you, Pete."

#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

Hey, this guy Quint from Amity Island said he would kill the octopus for $10,000 ...

#Jaws

Calamari, anyone?!?! Haha just a little jo— [instantly crushed by giant tentacle]

#Monsterdon

she put up with pete for an hour and eighteen minutes, and all she got was a glass of booze? yikes. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon That's one hell of a potato cannon you got there

Waving at the ship like, Hey guys! Thanks for not waiting for us to get to safety before detonating the explosives! Motherfuckers! #Monsterdon

A 13th century Reptilicus attacking Denmark?
#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

So, San Francisco Bay is now filled with chunks of radioactive octopus. Guess that's some kind of solution.

#Monsterdon

"Volunteers" lol

#monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

Ah yes, sneak up on the octopus's actual fucking eye. I can't see that going wrong. #monsterdon #BeneathTheSea

that was their plan, to just blow up its brain while it sat there #monsterdon

with the power of ELECTRONIC CONTROL! and torpedoes. #monsterdon

LOVE, LOVE, LOOOOOOOVE #Monsterdon

oh, i'm sorry, i mean, we were perfectly happy with him there. my bad. #monsterdon

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

#monsterdon

RIP Octopus, you were the best thing by far
#Monsterdon

The creature is clearly far into the Bay, judging from the piers - I don't think an atomic submarine would find enough depth to face off against it here #monsterdon

“You don’t know where the weak spot is, I do!”

Friends, the weak spot was the eye.

#Monsterdon

dammit, leave Pete alone, can't you see he was perfectly happy there? #monsterdon

"hey, whaddya know, slap to wake up actually works!"

#monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

is that a harpoon gun, or did they steal my old potato cannon? Better check the garage... #monsterdon #BeneathTheSea

@neia They are in the same movie together. AND YET they are not in the same scene together.
Well maybe. I haven't gotten to any scenes where the giant octopus asks for consent before picking anyone up yet.
#Monsterdon

this movie should have been called The Octopus That Totally Ruled

#monsterdon

OUCH! RIGHT IN THE EYE #monsterdon

Juuuust ignore the corpse... yep, just swim on by, don't make eye contact... It just encourages them. #Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe i'd like to close the hatch on this movie... #monsterdon

Why didn't you use this in the first place? #Monsterdon

@yatsu We thought you was a toad!

#monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

I thought it was supposed to blow up by remote control, not on contact. #monsterdon #BeneathTheSea

Aaaand now another five minutes filming him closing the hatch... #Monsterdon

"So we sent Callahan out with an air tank and a harpoon gun. But ten minutes later, he wasn't back and we were still stuck. So then we sent Thurston out with an air tank and a harpoon gun. But..."

#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

This guy has SO MANY clothes to remove. #Monsterdon

Is he even certified to use that diving equipment? #Monsterdon #itcamefrombeneaththesea

Maybe they should try to get Harry Harryhausen to talk to Poseidon and see if maybe he could calm the Octopus down ...

#Monsterdon

Hardass with a bowtie! #Monsterdon

The tentacles move as though they have eyes or something #monsterdon

@kurth lol, accidental art! #monsterdon

Remember the part where the Octopus the size of a submarine that that diver is next to is EXTREMELY RADIOACTIVE? #Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

@kurth Nah, those are the director's notes :P #Monsterdon

@kurth It just can't take this film #monsterdon

pete? pete, are you dead? (please?) #monsterdon

Wow that torpedo has great penetrating power

#Monsterdon

“In a crisis, always dress for success. Wear a good suit and a tie. I prefer a bow tie, but a nice neck tie also works.” The Secret to Succeeding — Professor John Carter #Monsterdon

They substituted long johns for a wet suit? #Monsterdon

Must be before Labor Day, they've got the white wetsuits out. #Monsterdon

when you're in the squid's grasp, but conveniently, can still open the hatch... #monsterdon

you have 5 minutes left please do not waste in on this interminable swimming sequence #monsterdon

There's the wrong kind of firemen on that fire truck! #monsterdon #BeneathTheSea #Fahrenheit451

Wow that's some old school scuba gear

#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

Bring out the Aqualung and have Thick as a Brick and Minstrel in the Gallery on standby. #Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

Man, everyone in the Navy just wants to blow themselves up. #Monsterdon

@msbellows probably a good thing it is a Pacific monster if it landed on the Gulf coast of Texas it would be Swiss cheese by now #Monsterdon

P.S. And wait now we do actually have a soundtrack!

#Monsterdon

"...break out an aqualung"
Sailor puts a Jethro Tull album on the turntable.

#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

Conan O'Brien
#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

Not the Ferry Building! there was that really good ice cream place there #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Looks like these Firemen brushed up on their 'Fahrenheit 451."

"what do we do now sir?"
please tell me you're going to just explode the bomb and sacrifice yourself?
#monsterdon

I legit did not expect this movie's soundtrack to go WOMP WOMP. :O

#SadTuba #Monsterdon

The gap in quality between the effects and literally everything else about the movie is astounding

#monsterdon

This totally turned into octopus Godzilla and I am here for it

#Monsterdon

What the hell Carter would have done anyway going nearer the octopus? Fled with his tail in between his legs
#monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

What museum did they steal that fire truck from? #monsterdon #BeneathTheSea

Would it be too much to ask for Professor Leslie to speak to another named woman over the radio please #monsterdon

"OW! Fuck, c'mon, I was just doing some shopping! I said sorry about the tower, that was an accident! Fine, fine, I know when I'm not wanted T_T" #Monsterdon

at least they thought of using fire #monsterdon

Flamethrowers are legitimately terrifying devices.

#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

please, with the flamethrowers, are they going to end this by eating the octopus #monsterdon

COAST AWAITS SEA-BEAST!
#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea After our octopus friend breaks the golden gate bridge, a TV announcer tells people to keep calm and carry on, then gives a traffic report. Generic Panic ensues.

Joyce appears to have been promoted to Chief Anti-Octopus Officer and is directing the public response, possibly because no one else knows what they're doing.

Seymour gets bored and decides to steal a boxcar to play with it, causing more panic; then he swats an annoying helicopter.

WAIT THIS IS GHOSTBUSTERS #monsterdon

come on, mr octopus, smash these dudes. #monsterdon

@OldRustBucket why not zoidberg

#Monsterdon

I love how the tentacle broke in then moved left to right like it was casing the place. #Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

#monsterdon and we're smoking in the research lab, congratulations monsterinos

I'm kind of surprised this movie didn't win an Academy Award. EVERY MOVIE THAT HAS A SUBMARINE IN IT WINS AN OSCAR! THEY FRIGGIN' LOVE SUBMARINES!

@Taweret@octodon.social Stop motion animators are unionized.

#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

The way the monster attacks is fantastic it just gracefully lays down a tentacle and smoooosh

So satisfying! #Monsterdon

Tentacle's going perfume shopping, apparently. #Monsterdon

Tentacley is back! Go! Go kill these doughy men!
Oh wow the sound track did get worse again when the monster is on screen. Wtf? Even the audiobalance is all over the place.
#Monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

monster just wanted coffee. #monsterdon

"Better go below if you don't want to get wet." is not a line you'll hear at my house. #monsterdon #BeneathTheSea

Yay, Alameda mention. I lived there up till last August #monsterdon

@SchlocklusterVideo jacques cousteau would honestly be the first one to advocate for bombing the octopus #monsterdon edit: oh wait i missed the obvious sarcasm omg lol

@RamenCatholic @paco haha small world, I was also talking about Beard Meats Food! He's great

#Monsterdon #BeardMeatsFood

Why isn't it spewing highly radioactive ink over SF?!!? #Monsterdon

Oh good squish! Lady made a noise like a deflating balloon. #Monsterdon

Did anybody notice those lewd suckers?
#monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

Just wants to find out the time

#Monsterdon

I keep expecting "GO BY TRAIN" on the train station clock tower but that's Portland

#monsterdon #ItCameFromBeneathTheSea

This film's got about as many black people as Gorgo had women. #Monsterdon

It's just hugging the architecture. As a student of architecture, I feel the same way. #monsterdon #BeneathTheSea
