'Must've been the wind!' #monsterdon
Uh-oh. Now Harry's in the Hausen.
#monsterdon so scary! Hell yeah
#monsterdon
He's got to get through that door.. Ed Wood.
"Must've been the wind."
-- dumbasses like Hercules and every Skyrim bandit guard
Okay. They're at their port o' call. Maybe this place has hookers and blow. #monsterdon
@Taweret I mean he is robbing Greek treasure so it fits
#monsterdon
See, the secret to being strong is to warm up your hands by cupping and blowing into them.
Talios: βThe okβ dipshit trap snags two more of βemβ¦ HEY!!!!β #Monsterdon
Also, I see that this movie is not breaking the precedent of the last two we watched, in that Hercules is, in fact, _kind of an idiot_. π
Hercules is not being heroic.
I feel like Hercules should not be struggling with doors no matter how big they are
@giltay@tenforward.social Because it's a reference to Tiber Septim, right?
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
Well if it isn't the consequences of my own actions! #monsterdon
@giltay I mean we might as well ask why they're all speaking English
Hercules makes his strength check #monsterdon
Hercules is the OG Himbo
Characters who live in worlds where pantheons exist and manifest themselves in the world in observable ways sure are oblivious as to how to avoid offending them.
Herc's stealing a knitting needle thinking it's a weapon. Silly demigod.
The door says no. #Monsterdon
Jerk-ulese.
These guys are not rowing like a well oiled machine, wowwww.
Oh YES it will! #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts1963
also why is Hercules an old man with a British accent
#monsterdon When Hercules grabs a club and tells you to "Come on," you should be worried. He'll be fine of course but I doubt he's had many sidekicks that last long!
Ominous timpani befitting the walking statue
I mean, Ferrignoβs Hercules was no less an idiot, but he wasnβt bumbling.
Why's that TALOS inscription written in the *Roman* alphabet? #Monsterdon
The Gods jewelry junk drawer is a really nice matte painting.
#Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts
OMG, forced perspective for the win!!
Who Talos in Star Trek, again?
What if the treasure we found along the way was in fact gold and jewels?
Herc, if you take the gold, you have to eat the gold. food and drink only.
Food and water only!!!
It's a HORTA EGG, you dumbass! Don't break it!
"the treasure chamber of the gods"
Holy shit it's Telos's pension fund. #Monsterdon
TOUCH NOTHING BUT THE LAMP #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Pro Tip : When setting up statues for all the world to see, don't put them in a canyon.
With a steering oar like that, it is actually a valid technique - I've used it myself.
You can even use it to help propel the boat - sculling it is called.
Touch nothing but the lamp! #monsterdon
βLetβs go do that one thing we were specifically told not to, gods love that!β #Monsterdon
"You're nobody in Hollywood if you don't have a big door."
can't wait to see these statues pop to life and absolutely wreck our boys.
Little.kniwn fact: Hercules and his twink buddy were the inspiration for the Three Stooges. #Monsterdon
That's a big door.
OK, yes, Harryhausen, got it
"And set them up for all the world to see!" On an island known only to the gods. Ever thought of going into advertising?
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
Reminder: Hephaestus canonically regularly made objects so fine as to be self-moving
The Harryhausen begins! #monsterdon
Haha Hercules outwitted by a cute goat gang.
#Monsterdon
Haphaestus was in it for the art, not the money. #Monsterdon
whoa I just realized the scale of these statues
"This is a matte painting. This would have been extremely expensive if you'd tried to actually make the set."
Ya think? haha
#monsterdon
Upcoming awesomeness alert.
Harryhausen alert!βΌοΈ!!! π¨πβΌοΈπ¨π
I liked Lou Ferrignoβs Hercules better. This Hercules is a bumbling idiot.
I remember this part! #monsterdon
Yes, YES, give us the Harryhausen
@diazona@techhub.social Jail for commenter! Jail for One Thousand Years!
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
The Isle of Giant Paperweights. #Monsterdon
Goat slaughter portion of the film.... #monsterdon
Thus beginneth the Harryhausen!
I would like for Hercules to put a shirt on
#monsterdon Firm leg? Versus soggy leg?
enjoying the unmatched character development
#monsterdon
Hercules & his boyfriend are the bad boys of this crew. #Monsterdon
You know what? This movie has the right amount of grizzled old man chest. Some movies overdo it, but I think this has a nice balance. #Monsterdon
Good job wingus and dingus #monsterdon
They're gonna Keystone Kops some goats. #Monsterdon
The captain's totally normal chats with the figurehead...
I'm sure this encourages the crew.
Cue the Benny Hill music!
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
is... is Hercules planning on just beating the goat to death with a club? i...
#monsterdon
What do you want with goats on this ship?
Don't ask, don't tell.
@jadebees Probably not but we couldn't possibly have that level of awareness in a #Monsterdon movie
Nooo not the gotes!
"Some of us might be hungry. Or thirsty. I could totes drink a goat."
I don't trust these guys to stick to food & water. They've been cooped up on that boat for ages. #Monsterdon
One jug?? Youβre taking one jug for water?? #Monsterdon
This island MUST have a spoons at least #monsterdon
#monsterdon I shall name it argo, after the corn starch.
28:45 "Set Sail!" Wait, you mean we've been rowing all this time for nothing?
Between Old Barrel-torso in his whitey tighties and the diegetic timpani this is the worst trip I've ever been on
Wow, the ancient greeks used british sailing vernacular! I guess it has been unchanged for ages!
Man you know that boat has to smell like dank leather by now :/ #Monsterdon
because they keep calling him Hercules but I ain't seeing him throw any bears into space so I'm skeptical
Should he be blabbing about Hera aiding him?
Curiously open communications and honesty for a Monsterdon movie. #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts1963
Talos?
@yatsu Never was faithful, that one π #Monsterdon
Riker is different in this episode.
They're using the epic music just a little too often.
#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963
Are there LADIES there?
Yeah this crew is really thirsty #Monsterdon
OK, now I have licked my fingers back to usefulness, but I have popcorn shards in my teeth
Yes, please, show us more old man nipples.
Herculesβs requirements for a woman: βa firm leg, a full bosom, and a warm heart.β
Um, I thought you were supposed to be there by noon, and yet there's a sunset shot?
a full bosom, which never referred to breasts
