#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

@MichaelKlamerus you’ll get used to it. That’s how #Monsterdon movies do.

Not a total brick-wall-in-the-face ending, but not exactly a denouement.

THATS IT.
#monsterdon

Once again, #monsterdon doesn't know how to end a movie. Absolute A+++ Harryhausen though! Goodnight folks, everybody in the eastern part of the UJS stay safe, and see y'all next week!

you just can't be mad at a movie that ends with an absolutely mad skeleton fight. A+++

#monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

It’s Jason and the Argonauts… NOT Jason and the Dénouement

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts1963

okay, the bones going off the cliff was amazing. chef's kiss.

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

*fuck it, off the cliff I go!

#Monsterdon

@SnoopJ trumpets! Trumpets, crash!
I love this scene 😍
#Monsterdon

This is some amazing fight choreography/compositing here.

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

W, a goth, says this scene is why she is the way she is. #Monsterdon

I hope the skeletons win :D #Monsterdon

@Binder oh yeah, that hydra for sure got paid to take a fall. Zeus had 20 on Jason and needed a sure thing.

#Monsterdon

Yeah, gotta salt the driveway. We're expecting snow later. #Monsterdon

Jason, I've got a hat full of teeth with your name on it.
#monsterdon sterdon

"I've got some hydra teeth here, and I'm not afraid to use them"

"Teeth you say?"

#Monsterdon

She's a traitor, and the Argonauts are thieves, I can't help feel the bad guys are winning here?

#Monsterdon

Wilhelm Scream!

#Monsterdon

wait you mean you just kill the hydra by stabbing it? there's no cutting off heads and having them regrow?

#monsterdon

@moira so this guy is not only stealing their fleece and sinking their main aircraft carrier hydra, he is crashing their economy by stealing the capital at the heart of their financial system #monsterdon

After doing a treason because horny, Medea frees the argonauts. Meanwhile the son Pelias tried to steal the fleece but was killed by a hydra, which Jason encounters when he himself goes to steal the fleece.

The hydra is very conversational and tries to hiss at Jason a lot to make small talk, but Jason is not interested and so opts to fling his sword at it.

#monsterdon

@jonny "We export _security_, _stability_, and _open trade routes_." - these guys, probably

#monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

One guy gets the funny hat, now everybody's got one

#Monsterdon

@ramsey "the heads are just a distraction" #Monsterdon

This movie was in desperate need of a sound designer. #Monsterdon

@hollie hera did not help his ass with being more coordinated than a kindergartener #monsterdon

Nowhere to run to, baby

Nowhere to Hydra

#Monsterdon

what bet did this guy lose to end up wearing that hat

#Monsterdon

Jeez, turn the soundtrack down! You're gonna wake everyone up! #Monsterdon

"But my gods/god promised it to ME!"

Still can't believe this shit goes on in the future 21st Century

#Monsterdon

Everyone whose name ends in "us" is with me

#Monsterdon

The name of the ship is the Argo == The name of the planet is Krull

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts1963

lol "here's Acastus!"

Classic villain reveal

#Monsterdon

Oh come on Jason, you cannot possibly be shocked by this. #Monsterdon

And the award for fakest beard in the whole movie goes to this dude.
#monsterdon

Will these men do a dance now?

Showtunes?

#Monsterdon

Little too much bronzer, ma'am. #Monsterdon

having a bunch of exactly the same looking ladies dancing around at all times is a cultural universal #monsterdon

Straight up Super Mario in Pyramid Land music. #Monsterdon

"What do you call the flower"

Jasonkiller. Uh, I mean- #Monsterdon

⁉️ TRIVIA AND THE ARGOS ⛵🌊

⏳ Nancy Kovack (second-billed actor) did finally appear as Medea in the 66th minute.

#JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Jason and the Main Character Energy

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts1963

#monsterdon Mostly the rocks are both plaid and paisley. You know, clashing…

"Hmmm well that rockslide sure fucked that boat up. What should we do to get through this dangerous strait?"
"I dunno... hey what if we tried to do the exact same thing they they did, maybe we'll get lucky?"
"Excellent plan! Let's do that!"

#monsterdon

"Chicks ahoy!"

#monsterdon

Wet robe contest whooooooo

#Monsterdon

Zeus and Hera are just watching Jason and the Argonauts and making snarky comments

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts1963

*How I feel holding a lift door open for someone

#Monsterdon

"The Gods want their entertainment." And it sounds like they have a big sideways drum. #monsterdon

"What ever you do, don't tickle his underarm as you go through!"

#monsterdon

What is it with these movies, giant dudes and water channels?

#Monsterdon

Drumming + landslides

🏆

#Monsterdon

"Beat out the stroke, but keep it easy."

UH PHRASING

#monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts

*Luckily that other boat was full of wankers

#Monsterdon

expecting a Wilhelm Scream ....

#Monsterdon

Jason: <quietly, into the wind> Steady as you go. Easy.

Guys rowing twenty feet away: WHAT

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts

"Beware of the Clashing Rocks!"
"How will we recognize them?"
"They'll be wearing checkered shirts, striped pants and orange and pink accessories."

#monsterdon

What if those harpies get out?

#Monsterdon

@SnoopJ definitely a belief system that has an easier time explaining why bad and random things happen in the world compared to "god: ??????"
#monsterdon

@jonny Let the antifreeze out and watch it burn! :blobcatgiggle2: #monsterdon

Good thing we had this METRIC ASSLOAD OF NETTING just laying around. #monsterdon

@diazona @jonny This! Exactly!

#Monsterdon

Why do we see ruined temples in this world? Shouldn't all the temples be kind of new?

Maybe this world has cultural continuity, with thousands of years of identical-looking temple construction?

#monsterdon

Yeah you're gonna wanna avoid defying the gods in a universe where they are real. #monsterdon

are you Phinneas?

i know what we’re gonna do today1

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts

Hey where did they get all their armor?
#Monsterdon

Me at Ponderosa

#Monsterdon

"Would you really sail without Hercules? The schmuck who nearly got us all killed?"

#Monsterdon

The Gods have other movies for Hercules....

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

It was all Hercules fault though....

#Monsterdon

⁉️ TRIVIA AND THE ARGOS ⛵🌊

⏳ Anybody seen the second-billed Nancy Kovack yet? We are well into the film.

#JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Fair play to them on rebuilding the ship from local materials, the dream of Nanotechnology

#Monsterdon

Spider-Man: “Hey guys, did you ever see that really old movie, Empire Strikes Back?”

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts1963

Giant copper statues are powered by boiling kool-aid.

EVERYONE KNOWS THAT.
#monsterdon

Bro you've got some patina, you're gonna want to get that looked at and wear sunscreen. #monsterdon

There should be a glowing icon on the top of Talos's head, thrust your sword into that...at least that's what you do in Shadows of the Colossus

#Monsterdon

Call the statue Orichalcum and not bronze, you cowards!

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

Maybe rub some Brasso on him, I dunno

#Monsterdon

"Blame Hercules"

#Monsterdon

Damn even Hera bailed

#Monsterdon

Talos: "Anybody see a hairy guy, about so big? He stole my javelin"

*indicates with thumb and forefinger*

#monsterdon

Alright, pretty cool. I can see why that guy in Skyrim is so excited about Talos

#Monsterdon

Incidentally I was looking at game footage of 'In The Shadows Of the Colossus" and am very ready for this....

#Monsterdon

Apparently, Talos' animation is intended to be deliberately jerky and not smooth, because of course he's a large metal creaking statue!

#monsterdon

Imagine Hercules in a revolving door, just using those giant muscles and spinning everyone around

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts

FAFO incoming #monsterdon

Harryhausen alert!‼️!!! 🚨🔔‼️🚨🔔

#monsterdon #jasonandtheargonauts1963

YOU LEAVE THOSE GOATS ALONE

#Monsterdon #JaconAndTheArgonauts1963

The drums being partially diegetic feels weird

#Monsterdon #JasonAndTheArgonauts1963

yeah see the risk of going around announcing that you're going to dethrone the king around the king's men is that you might actually be talking to the king himself

https://neuromatch.social/@jonny/116236196847084416

#monsterdon

Avert your eyes. More Hera creepiness incoming. #Monsterdon sterdon

If only someone had thought to bring water or food. Damn the god of the MS Project.

#monsterdon

just rows out into the middle of the sea and dies...

#Monsterdon

So many hairy men...

#Monsterdon

Content warning: Terrifying animated Hera figurehead incoming. #monsterdon

@jivens lol, classic Fyre Festival shenanigans #Monsterdon

"Ramming speed!"

#monsterdon

Our flag means death. #Monsterdon

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

Polydeuces, meaning “many poops”.
