#Monsterdon wow, that got *dark*

So, this old flames reuniting scene is a bit forced

#monsterdon

:: waits patiently through Thumbtack promo ::

#monsterdon

Fire Mares can travel that fast!

Fire Mares, right of course, those things.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤴 ⚔️ 👰 🐉 🔮 😱

FIRE MARES???

#Monsterdon Do Fire Mares come from the Fire Swamp? When they reach the Iron Desert, is something forged?

@strangefour@retro.pizza It still got me choked up.

#Monsterdon #Krull

"Wild fire mares / couldn't drag me away"

#Monsterdon

STOP. HORNER TIME. #monsterdon

_sure_ this looks like a real place, not a sound stage...
#monsterdon

Do not squander your power!

Guy is totally gonna squander him some power.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Why is Corwyn constantly smirking at completely inopportune moments, it is off-putting

#Monsterdon I often times wish that death scenes were more like Ready or Not at the end. Kaaa-splotch!

he doesn't look like eddington at all to me

#monsterdon

"I got sand in my pocket, and the other one is holding a peace sign!" #Monsterdon
#AlanisMorrisette

Please tell me the spider noise is over. #monsterdon

TASK NUMBER FOUR!

The Firemares.

#Monsterdon

ooh, I know this! They just need to take these giant eagles! #monsterdon

Shouldn't have sent the old guy to do the Ninja Warrior course #monsterdon

"do not squander it, as you have squandered your career on this movie!" #monsterdon

Spider spider
spider spider
does whatever a spider spider

#Monsterdon

OK so they have no roads and no pockets.

#monsterdon

Dude, put the sand in your pocket or something, geez. Get some lateral thinking!

#monsterdon

"Fly, you fools." #Monsterdon

did we learn anything from that crystal spider scene i could not bring myself to pay attention to it #Monsterdon

"I can not stop the sand."
"You can not stop time..."
Poetic and melancholy. But in the service of a stop motion spider scene. heh.
#Monsterdon #Krull

@ohiofi I must not Krull.
Krull is the mind-killer.
Krull is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my Krull.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the Krull has gone, there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

#Monsterdon #Krull

I like that they didn't make the spider any more fantastic than a really big house spider.

#monsterdon #Krull

Aside from some costumed women at the interrupted wedding and our princess damsel in distress, are there any other women-ish characters? So far failing Bechdel test for sure. #monsterdon

@Cherizilla Holy Crap! I totally didn't catch that. Man I hate that guy (Eddington). But that was kind of the point. :-) #Monsterdon #Krull

Can we just move onto the next scene please

#monsterdon

what even just happened

#Monsterdon

There's some tragedy and yet forgiveness and redemption here in this scene. Also a bit touching. #Monsterdon

Well, Hobby Lobby's never taking return on that hourglass now :/ #Monsterdon

"...if I could turn back time"

#Monsterdon #Krull

30-Minute Poll

To create the effect that a destroyed building ascended to the heavens, filmmakers:

prolly like onions and eggs and popadoms

#monsterdon

See, I'm legit tearing up. I've always loved Ynyr and Lyssa, so tragic.

#monsterdon

The Iron Desert, The Bronze Desert, The Stainless Steel Desert... #monsterdon

Does this world work on Undertale logic? Are these two from a previous save?

#monsterdon #krull

Lyssa, girl, he only shows up in your web when he wants your visions, he's just not that into you. #monsterdon

lady, you've broken the law before.... #monsterdon

These are the sands of my life, running through the hourglass. Like the days of our lives

#monsterdon

@trixter "That is the lure of the web... That and the free porn." #Monsterdon

ah, the power of true love to make someone conform externally to hegemonic beauty standards #monsterdon

yeesh I can smell his breath
#monsterdon

This spider special effect is pretty cool looking, actually.
#Monsterdon

@cd0 Let's play spot the fetish #monsterdon

Apparently the novelization strongly implies that the old man and old witch are the ancestors of the protagonist and his lover.

#monsterdon

Isn't that the Mom from OG Dune?

#monsterdon #krull

This is proper drama right here

#Monsterdon

okay, damn girl, that was a twist. #monsterdon

Two people named Lyssa?

#monsterdon

@SordidAmok Good point. (On the spear, I mean) #monsterdon

Does anyone in this movie not have history together

#Monsterdon

Glass spider is kinda cute.
#Monsterdon #Krull

It's always weird to be at your ex's place.

#Monsterdon

lady, you ain't that bad now... #monsterdon

And I was a complete dumbass with all of my heart

#monsterdon #Krull

Dude, you're gonna have to move faster to get past Shelob #monsterdon

the glassiest of glass sp00ders

she is lovely

#monsterdon #Krull

@Louisa late 90s Ralph Fiennes though, good for her #monsterdon

Oh the widow is his ex-wife? Her title is foreshadowing?
Man the soundtrack is shouting how intense this is but it's trying way too hard here.
#Monsterdon #Krull

The widow has great time management. #Monsterdon

That is a really cool spider, to be fair. I hope nothing bad happens to her.

#Monsterdon

Animators earned every penny

#Monsterdon

Oh look a convenient spiderweb ladder #monsterdon

I love the stop-motion spider just a lil friend

#Monsterdon

Me at work next year: "Love is fleeting, power is eternal."

#Monsterdon

Your boyfriend's back and there's gonna be trouble

(sorry)

#Monsterdon

Seriously where did you get this footage of my pre-peri-menopausal uterus #monsterdon #krull

A great big stop motion beastie has come to liven up the movie!
#Monsterdon #Krull

fuck yeah team sp00der

/╲/\╭ºoꍘoº╮/\╱\

#monsterdon #Krull

Wait. He knows her name, and that gives him only, like 60 seconds of hourglass time? I thought he could control her with her name, or something.

#Monsterdon #Krull

Oh wow, can you ever hear the Aliens music here. #monsterdon

We have another actress from Dune, Francesca Annis who was Jessica #Monsterdon

Spider rules
#monsterdon

Okay I like the spider. #monsterdon

Some parts of this movie do look really cool. #monsterdon

the spider puppet is SO GOOD #monsterdon

Galadriel's Glass to the rescue!

#Monsterdon

SHELOB!

#Monsterdon #KRULL

Fun fact: this was the first scene they filmed.

#monsterdon

True Facts: Also no safety equipment used in this at all!

No one call SAG. NO ONE.

#monsterdon

You can't have Glass Spiders without also having David Bowie!

#Monsterdon #Krull

Straight up Shelob. What the heck?

#Monsterdon #Krull

The king has full-on Captain Kirk charisma. People who meet him are willing to die for him like an hour later. #monsterdon

Stop motion spider, hell yeah! #monsterdon

DON'T MIND MY PET, SHE'S VERY FRIENDLY AND JUST GOT BACK FROM THE GROOMER'S

#monsterdon #Krull

Oh we're getting some stop motion spider! :D I knew this movie would be worthwhile :D #Monsterdon

I SEEK THE GRAIL

wait...no...

WIDOW!

I SEEK THE WIDOW!

#Monsterdon

the housing developers on this planet all went through a big german expressionist phase

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon “Enter here and die.” How refreshingly straightforward.

#Monsterdon Hey! That’s gaslighting and narcissistic abuse! Awww! Just like home, fills me with the comfort of childhood trauma. Good times. The big bad is always bad, but when you fail to provide the beast narcissistic supply, he hurts those that you love! Ha ha! I’m twelve again! Teehee!

@yatsu Styrofoam falling hazards everywhere! #Monsterdon

Falling rocks aren't nearly as interesting as the cinematographer thought. #Monsterdon #Krull

@arisummerland only if you bring the whole cult with you. #Monsterdon #CultOfRamenCatholicism

@FoxMime

Oh hell yeah it's SPIDER TIME 🕸️
