I used some old drapes for these sails.

Everyone is gonna think he's nuts being obsessed with that figurehead.

#Monsterdon

what's Hercules asking about women for, he's got Hylos or whoever he is. they're practically still on their honeymoon period.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

[take]"Absolutely nothing else," eyeing Hercules. Yup, that's the guy from last week, all right. #Monsterdon

Listen closely: this soundtrack has no strings at all! And is from the same composer as Psycho!

#monsterdon

🎶 Men men men men
Men men men men

#monsterdon

So now they're going to use the sails?

#monsterdon
#JasonandtheArgonauts

My mom loved this film (particularly the skeletons which cracked her up).

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963 #BlackMastodon #BlackFedi

"Set sail!"

I would ask why the sails were not already set, but of course I know that the answer is so that Jason can say "set sail!"

#Monsterdon

“Set sail?? Why didn’t you say that five days ago??” #Monsterdon

That old man had the exact right reaction to Jason talking to Hera.

#Monsterdon

I'm pretty sure they've all already been to the Isle of Bronze(r).

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

#Monsterdon

The animated figurehead is creepy. But I can see how they couldn't resist with Harryhausen on board.

"Look, kid, there is a LOT you haven't heard of. If you keep saying that this is going to take forever."

#Monsterdon

I think they ran out of water because all the PET bottles were recycled to make the fleece

#Monsterdon

"Her eyes are up there, Jason."

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Running low on water is what I don't want to hear with our boil water advisory. #Monsterdon

so you can ask more than one question at a time as long as Hera's whispering?

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Give me three sips, three sips towards the door...

#Monsterdon
#JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

"Listen very carefully." I will tell you only once.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Its concentrated water you only need 3 sips a day #Monsterdon

HELP_COUNTER -= 1

#monsterdon

That armless Hera statue is very unsettling.

#monsterdon

Argus is doing product placement with Dodge? That wasn't in the book. #monsterdon

*now* Hera tells Jason it was Pelias he met.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Stop grumbling or I'll give you something to grumble about!

DON'T MAKE ME TURN THIS SHIP AROUND!

#Monsterdon

They should rig some awnings to protect the crew from the sun
#monsterdon

#monsterdon
Ahh. use brine, not shirts. Got it.. also water would be nice.

So many short skirts in this film. We're gonna get to see a lot of batch shots before the night is through.
#Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts

Here: “You could at least have given me arms, my nose is itching like crazy” #Monsterdon

How much water does it take to reach the end of the world?

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

There's always one in every epic adventure. #Monsterdon

They just should have brought more water

#monsterdon
#JasonandtheArgonauts

"We're all in this together, men! Now, keep rowing."

(sips water)

#Monsterdon

The guy marking the strokes with his drum clearly failed out of high school music class, he’s got Zero rhythm.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

#monsterdon She's ready to sink!

#monsterdon Wow Hera, I know you're a goddess but damn, what an ego.

Hey, it's an Uncle Travelling Mat(te)! Thanks, Don Chaffee!

#monsterdon

just dessicate my ass on deck in my diaper #monsterdon

THE GODS WATCH MONSTERDON! #Monsterdon

Three sips of water a day? They must have that dehydrated stuff. #Monsterdon

All you great heroes? Yeah, you're going to be hauling oars for days. Such fun! #Monsterdon

"I don't expect him to take my advice. After all, it is terrible."

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

“Guys, should we have put sails on this thing?” #Monsterdon

And that's why you make sure you have a shit ton of water
#monsterdon

Row Row Row your boat....

#Monsterdon

"... three sips a day ..."

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

“Paint me like one of your Phoenician ladies” #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts1963 Are we there yet? I want an ice cream.

I… do not feel safe under creepy giant manaquin Hera's gaze… #Monsterdon

@strangefour@retro.pizza The ship's largely powered by rowing, so the masthead looks at their faces instead!

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

@Taweret the more brass there is, the more the heroics

#Monsterdon

And then all these Greek men got all sweaty and hot

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Hercules doesn't look like Kevin Sorbo!! He's got better hair than Kevin Sorbo. He must use that hemp shampoo. #monsterdon

'I've got cabin fever!' #monsterdon

Hera can do a slow blink, but I wonder if she can do the head-shake of disgust.

#monsterdon

Dude! You're hot! Dude! You're hot too! Gods be praised, every man on this boat is hot!

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

@hollie At least she's already leaning over the side in case she's gotta plurge. #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts 🍿🎥

🎵 sail-away sail-away sail-away... 🎵

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts

Boat Bobblehead!

#Monsterdon
#JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

A backwards figurehead feels like an ill omen. Gotta be some old pirate saying about it. "When a masthead looks your ass end you'll be a dead man."
#Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts

Careful, the hulls have eyes

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Gee. that's some scary Hera giant head.
#monsterdon

#monsterdon
Who built this ship? Hera should be facing out towards the sea.. Not .. ohe never mind.

We now go to a sweaty athletics montage where Jason watches the heroes of greece wrestle, swim and shoot things to recruit the crew for his fleece recovering boat.

#monsterdon

So many thighs. #Monsterdon

movie soundtracks really liked their brass sections back then huh

#monsterdon

If they were going to name the boat after the boat wright, they should probably not have brought the boat wright on the journey. #Monsterdon

i really buttered my popcorn and have lost the use of my left hand

#Monsterdon

Hera? Or Bowie?

#Monsterdon

Jason has had like three outfit changes already #monsterdon

They've barely started out and Hera's had enough of their bullshit. #Monsterdon

Dangit, *bust* of Hera.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Heh, nice eyelids on that statue. Very believable :P #Monsterdon

I wonder how Hera feels about being stuck in that statue

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Dude, be more respectful of Hera’s chin

#Monsterdon

Ahhh, it's the Dodge Ram 800 (BC).

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts

Argo gets a bit familiar with the budt of Hera.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

#monsterdon ... And wait until you see where I put the rudder!

Oh, men wrestling. But not naked. What sort of shit is this? No orgies, no naked men wrestling? #monsterdon

“I’ll call her the Argos, after the shop I bought it from” #Monsterdon

oooo, creepy.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Hylas, ancient inventor of Frisbee golf. #Monsterdon

Well, Lou Ferrigno was a better Hercules. Stronger, at least
#monsterdon
#GoldenFleece

Oh, the ARGO. Now I get it.

#Monsterdon

@diazona He’s missing delts that could be used as pillows.

#Monsterdon

She is a fine ship! But she's a terrible boat. Just awful.

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

#Monsterdon

Well. I'm in. I have seen this a few times. So just starting where we are...

Those are some well-girded loins.

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Zeus: “Is this the only thing on? Change the channel” #Monsterdon

Well shucks, lookee there. If it ain't ole Hercules. Ma and Pa ain't never gonna believe this.
#monsterdon

This takes place before Olympus got wired for internet. #monsterdon

I'm so glad we didn't have the roll call of all the heroes supposed to be aboard.

#Monsterdon

Hylus and Lois #Monsterdon

He won by skimming. This was an example of why embezzling is good, actually. #Monsterdon

It'd be another two thousand years before they thought about putting the television on a wall.

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Herc's a good loser. #Monsterdon #JasonandtheArgonauts1963

So no single syllable names on this boat then.
"What's your name lad?
Bob.
Gtf off my boat you abomination!"
