This would have been a great opportunity to bring back the healing flowers. It'd be a nice show of Jason learning from Medea and using that knowledge. A sign of respect. It would also let the movie reduce the powers of the fleece: it blesses the nation rather than individuals.
Alas.

Oh it's Ray time. I can sense it. #Monsterdon
"Jason and his pirates." Get his ass! #Monsterdon
Ancient Abraham Lincoln is like the anti tooth fairy.
#Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts
Sock-Hat Lincoln needs a decent pair of pants.
"In the original, rotting corpses appear, which would not be very appealing and horrific. We were out to make an unusual sequence, not a horrific one. So clean cut skeletons emerge instead.

GURL. LET HIM DIE.
Next christmas I'm not bothering with a tree, I want glowing golden fleece!
Ya let Argus touch the sweater. It's not even his size and he's only worn clothes once in the last 1 hour and 32 minutes. #monsterdon
Yes, throw your shield at it, you absolute fucknugget.
That fleece is skanky.
More like it has the stench that can wake up a comatose person.
#Monsterdon
FIFTY MEN and one woman. And you shoot a single arrow and hit the only woman.
FOOL of a took!
Wilhelm-esque scream very good #Monsterdon
🎵 You're dirty, sweet and you're my girl
"I was an only child, my parents always worked with me, took an interest, never tried to discourage me. She used to help me making papier mache puppets... but after seeing King Kong I became intrigued with movie cameras and stop motion."
Nice of their pursuers to give them time to do a resurrection spell here. #Monsterdon
Finally I'm at the Hydra! #Monsterdon
How kind of the archer to fire one arrow only and then take his union-mandated 15 minute break
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
Jason, you've fought enough battles to know you shouldn’t willy nilly yank out an arrow like that.
that thing is solid tinsel
Yeah? Well does YOUR hat have a reservoir tip?
So that's how you steal stuff at TJ Maxx? Wow. #monsterdon
oh. no. not... uh, this lady i've known for like 36 hours???
Oh shit they shot the priestess of foresight. #Monsterdon

bummer!
#Monsterdon
Oh yeah, pull out that arrow.
skeleton scene yussss
"Children of the nights"? Sounds like a bad heavy metal band
#monsterdon
#Jasonandtheargonauts
i cannot imagine htose wicker shields are very effective tvh
The Hyda's teeth are going to have kids?
Look, I'm sorry, that fleece is full of fucking glitter. You'll be picking it out of your ass for the next 20 years. Not worth it!
Except fluoride and flossing #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts1963
Their shields have boobies.
#monsterdon
"Come to me my children of the night! You have such beautiful music to make!"
"DOOT DA DOOT DOOT DOOT!!"
#Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts
Now for a bit of post-life orthodontal work
#Monsterdon
Love built on that firm and enduring foundation of *checks notes* knowing somebody for less than 48 hours #Monsterdon
Bro, the hissing snake is theft prevention. You have to pay for the sweater. #monsterdon
#monsterdon
The children of the Hydra's teeth.. intrigued I don't remember this..
Half a dozen heads means bunches of teeth! It's going to be a little army!
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
I get the feeling this king knows a little bit of sorcery. #Monsterdon
Summon BONUS MONSTER.
#monsterdon
Nifty hydra skeleton
I think we are coming up to my favorite part growing up
#monsterdon
“Here scarecrow, wanna play ball?”
hydra teeth, dragon teeth, same thing really
Maybe get to safety first before attempting fleece-based resuscitation?
Bats!? Is it dracula now? #Monsterdon
Oh god that hat. He's a hoopy frood who knows where his towl is.
#Monsterdon
this Fleece has all the blings!
#monsterdon
#Jasonandtheargonauts
Not so golden when they turned the highlghts down
Why do they all have those goofy sock hats? 😂
That's not a golden fleece, that's a sleeping Mystic. He's gonna wake up and want to know where the hell Jen's gone off to now.
Fleece not looking so gold anymore now that the hydra is dead
You touched it, and the magic is gone.
OOOO! The golden designer sweater! YAZ GIRL! #monsterdon
She doesn't want you to get involved with him, Medea, that's why!
Well, that was strangely anticlimactic for a Hydra. #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts1963
You know, I'm beginning to understand the lack of pants in antiquity.
I'll never complain about having to pass the noisy dog a few houses down again. #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts 🍿🎥
What kind of dime store hydra dies from a single hit to the body? I call bullshit. That fight was rigged. #Monsterdon
Okay, I assume they're using a practical Hydra head to wrap around Jason and rear projection for the rest but it was really well done, it totally passes as a single shot
I've seen more better golden fabric at Walmart.
#monsterdon
"Chaffee would have moved the action of Clash of the Titans much faster than the actual director did."
WE WAS ROBBED
Okay, I assume they're using a practical Hydra head to wrap around Jason and a matte for the rest but it was really well done, it totally passes as a single shot
In fairness the hydra doesn't really seem to know how to use its many necks effectively
This Hydra sounds like a bunch of steam pipes. I wonder if it has a release valve like Talos somewhere.
#monsterdon
#JasonandTheargonauts
Is that hydra-head gumming him?
Pruning skills are key here #Monsterdon
Why is a hydra guarding the golden fleece anyway?
"Get up on the hydra's back! Get up on the hydra's back! Get up on the hydra's back!"
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
#monsterdon lmao why the LONG NECK, Jason puppet?!?!
He swings, he misses. For three minutes.
#Monsterdon
The Harryhausen Hydra is the BEST HYDRA EVAR #Monsterdon
Medea on the verge for five minutes of saying "Um, Jason, your sword is doing nothing to the hydra," but never getting it out. #Monsterdon
YES THE CLAYMATION DOLL YEESSSSSS
May I just offer a hearty WTF to that statue of H lady. She is OFFENDED.
"It's one of my favourites, the hydra sequence. Very few people ask me questions or even remember it existed!
"We tried to simulate the idea of a snake body, along with the reptilian concept of a dinosaur.
"All of the movement was done at the time of animation, not pre-planned. Only the cuts were pre-planned, but only in the broadest sense."
It just wants its Silphium fix. #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts1963
These Harryhausen creatures are so awesome. #Monsterdon
One does not simply grab the Golden Fleece. #Monsterdon
You'd need at least 2 Ghidorahs to fight this guy
Wait, is that the creature from Tremors?
Day, night, night and day, everything is the same on this movie
#monsterdon
#JasonAndTheargonauts
You can't just waltz in and takew the golden fleece!
I could watch his stop motion all day long
#monsterdon
That's what you get for loving your dad more than Jason, Acastus #Monsterdon
@brooke@bikeshed.vibber.net Meanwhile, I'm like: wound-healing flowers? Give me seeds, give me cuttings, I want this growing everywhere! It's not quite the Golden Fleece, but it's an amazing second place prize!
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
Half named, passed out men. There was for sure an orgy. She's stealing some dudes keys to his Mercedes. #monsterdon
movie about the ancient greeks would have me believe hydras are a threat on the same level as quicksand.
Oh yeah that's some good hydra
Yay hydra #Monsterdon
@nhgeek dish towel pyramid hat guy talking to frilly cuff oiled sock wig king #monsterdon
#monsterdon hail hydra
thank god
What the hell is this? A sock helmet? A sweater vest stuck on his head?
