The last two movies made me expect all of this to be a lot more chrome.

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

You can't trick a prophecy, when will people learn #monsterdon

Love a good extras battle on terrain. #Monsterdon

That’s the first thing you do when going into battle… leave your sword behind.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Man, in these old movies you can really see where the budget went.

#Monsterdon

Pelias grabbed the sword he gave to Zeus just a minute ago? He's going to die horribly, isn't he

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Man, last day of school's always crazy huh. #Monsterdon

They said the name of the guy in the title. #Monsterdon

STOP GRABBING HOT METAL #monsterdon

#monsterdon in old Hollywood epics I love how many people are there, just throngs of people running around

NOTE: The "Golden Fleece Award" is actually something entirely different

#Monsterdon

Dammit, Zeus. Would you please send us toilet paper? Look at my hands for crying out loud.
#monsterdon

nevermind, i'll take my sword back, thank YOU.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

The Owlbear was just a little owlbearlette the last time they watched this. Literally all I can rember is the skeletons. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon the opening theme song for Jason and the Argonauts (1863) makes me think I'm in for a Police Academy movie for some reason...

IT'S #Monsterdon TIME :ameowbongo:

Tonight er are watching Jason lead the Toronto CFL team into battle with NASTY STOP MOTION MONSTERS

Oh...not THOSE Argonauts? Whatever. Follow the hashtah for some EXCELLENT DIORAMA™️ STOP MOTION
(Or filter if you'd rather Oscar talk dominate your timeline instead ;)

Mooching over here tonight, we'll see how long I stick around.

(My current book isn't doing a very good job of holding my attention so probably for at least a little while )

Jason and the Argonauts (1963) #Watching #Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963 https://letterboxd.com/imdb/tt0057197

#monsterdon

Did you ever really get into your palm?

"Elias, you will get lucky tonight."

#Monsterdon

"Tell me of tonight!"

"Tonight... a bunch of strange beings.... called nerds.... will observe us from afar.... and ridicule us! Oh the humanity!" #monsterdon

It's #Monsterdon let's goooo! Jason and the Argonauts (1963) 🧵

Horoscopes used to be really complicated. #monsterdon

Is it just me or is that armor kinda... Roman?

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

those are very specific smudges

#monsterdon

These are highly detailed ashes.
#Monsterdon

I want some of what this ash man is on.

#Monsterdon

The skull and skin of a ram? Is he going to get better?

#monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts

I see the future in these ashes. From the thing which I just smoked. #Monsterdon

This would be better with The Oracle at Delphi. #Monsterdon

I see a great tree, and I feel fine

#Monsterdon

when he says something that doesn't make sense grab his own hand and slap him with it

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Yay! It's #Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963
time!

Mute where appropriate!

Juice!?

Oh....Zeus.

That guy.

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts

#monsterdon
Tonight we dine in Hellespont

W: Doesn't look like they're going to play football. #Monsterdon

It's so dark in this sunlit paradise. #Monsterdon

day for night, never works, etc etc etc

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

"Hot soup! Comin' through, hot soup!" #Monsterdon

'Hothothothothothot' #monsterdon

making popcorn made me 2 minutes late for #Monsterdon

This is some Cecil B DeMille level opening.

#Monsterdon

Genuinely excited for tonight’s film. Haven’t seen it in a very very long time and I remember enjoying it quite a bit, yes, it was all because of Harry but still #Monsterdon

Ending the opening credits on a tentacle monster, nice

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Is there a kraken? Oh, let there be a kraken!

#Monsterdon

weirdly evocative of the Black Hole march there, so, uh, that's odd

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Behold, Biggus Dickus! #monsterdon

I believe this art tells the story of the time Jason left home to avoid his mother's atrocious music. #Monsterdon

Read & Cross? I see what you did there, credits. #Monsterdon

We seem to be loving our Greek movies
#monsterdon

that was very bombastic

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963 he's what we're here for

Harryhausen is nuts. N V T S nuts.

(History of the World)
#monsterdon

But is this one going to start with a long cosmology lesson?

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

I want to do #monsterdon so we're doing claymation? Fux news HAHA

No wait, is it The special effects magic of Dinorama we’re about to see? Why, yes, yes it is! It’s time for #Monsterdon … yay!

huh: Ray Haryhausen's is the only name I recognize in the credits…
#monsterdon

Didn't know Honor Blackman was in this. #Monsterdon

Already mighty! #Monsterdon

Ahhh, back when movies were REAL movies, and credits were hewed from solid brass.

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts

hey! there's our boy!

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

#monsterdon

Nice font!!

Yay Ray Harryhausen! #Monsterdon

i believe the year this came out, Harryhausen was granted a lifetime achievement award at the oscars

#monsterdon

Must be cold in those Greek paintings.

#Monsterdon

I expect shonky skeletons.
No, I demand shonky skeletons!
#Monsterdon

Well, that is a slow and ponderous opening number.

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Heeeere we go! #monsterdon

I've never seen this and it's a Harryhousen so how bad can it really be? Maybe we voted for a good movie this time? I can deal with that

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

Wait, is Harry Hamlin not in this one?

#monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts

Oh hey, a schmeer of Shneer #Monsterdon

Good intro music.

#Monsterdon

wow, an actual movie studio paid actual money for this movie.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

OH boy my version has the commentary track, and only the commentary track! lfg...

#monsterdon
