Gandalf The Green here, knows Radagast The Brown (but not quite as brown because he's not covered in shit) from their high school days

#monsterdon #krull

An adventuring party of four. I guess the other bandits are npcs.
#Monsterdon #Krull

Interstellar visionary cyclops

#monsterdon

so, the old man is a SIMS?

#monsterdon #Krull

Ok I'm going to go get my knitting #monsterdon #krull

Is the clown shaking down the boy for sweets?

#Monsterdon

Look it’s Gandalf the Green #monsterdon

That’s how you seized things back in the day. You just said “I seize xxxx” and it was done. #Monsterdon

Prendeghast the Green!

#Monsterdon

@secretlybatman I would also follow T'Challa

#Monsterdon

YOU DON'T SPLIT UP, GANG

THAT'S THE RULE!

#monsterdon

"Raisins in your brain case" is my new favorite insult.

#Monsterdon #KRULL

@mmezabet "RADA darling, RADA...." #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Exposition Man decrees only four will continue, because they didn’t want to pay the bandit extras for more scenes.

Brave, Brave Sir Robin, bravely ran away. When danger reared its ugly head, he bravely turned his tail and fled. Brave, brave, brave, brave Sir Robin.

#Monsterdon They're in the emerald city

This rocks! More rocks!

#Monsterdon

"Speak friend and enter."

#monsterdon #krull

This movie is utter nonsense and I'm here for it. #monsterdon

Looks a bit gamma ray ee

#Monsterdon

Good to see they're leaving the Redshirts behind. #Monsterdon

We'd best make the most of this horse budget.

#Monsterdon #Krull

"Would you follow a king?"
Is it Aragorn?
If so: yes; otherwise: no
#Monsterdon

King? Well I didn't vote for you! #Monsterdon #krull

"... time of their own death"

Thank you, Exposition Guy

#Monsterdon

Torquil was also the lead singer of Dexy's Midnight Runners

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Apparently this cyclops is on the helpful side, unlike the “Magnificent” wiz.

#monsterdon, cyclops has a good eye

whoah, what in the SPACE TRIDENT was that?! #monsterdon

+3 spear of fainting

#Monsterdon

Ok this movie is kinda growing on me a bit

Just needs more creechurs

#Monsterdon

"Can't a man even talk to himself without being interrupted?"

I love the zingers in this movie. Not so much the banter writ large, but I get what it's going for and it's competently written enough for this era.

#Monsterdon

Oh shit wait that's robbie coltrane! #monsterdon

Amazing aim for one lacking stereo vision!

#Monsterdon

"I've got my eye on you!" #monsterdon

I feel like they reached out to Monty Python for some of the casting here.

#Monsterdon #Krull

"Nine men like you are worth an army"

Ooh, he's learning how to have Character Moments

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon i require men with a certain set of skills

Oh no! They've been attacked by a wild Liam Neeson!
#Monsterdon #Krull

"how did you know I had sons?"

STATISTICS, BABY #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Surprisingly, none of the bandits are enthusiastic about storming the Black Fortress, what with the Slayers and all.

Nice speech, hero, but Henry V you ain’t.

#Monsterdon one hundred men or more could never doooooo 🎵

They always have sons

#Monsterdon

Lyssa is trapped at the optician's #monsterdon

is pre-fame Liam Neeson the bandit with the early-fame George Clooney hair? #monsterdon

"Is it foolish to fight for your home?"

I dunno, are we getting a lend-lease program? Are the sanctions still up? Do we get Starlink access? #Monsterdon

@Taweret "plot"

I guess to be fair there kind of is one this time

#Monsterdon

It's like Medieval Mad Max up in this costume shop!

#Monsterdon #KRULL

okay imma miss a minute because I'm gonna go grab some cheese from the kitchen

hope I don't lose the plot

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Obligatory Bandits! Who are suspiciously clean and well groomed.

Let's just end this movie and be done with it

#monsterdon

TINY PEEG

#monsterdon #krull

awwww, little Bobbie Coltrane and Liam Neeson!

One of them dead now, that's how far into the terrible future we are...

#Monsterdon

the poor piglet!!

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Are all the guys flirting with each other?

Ok, seriously, can we please have some sort of historical-adjacent fiction that DOESN'T consider consent to be a misnomer?

#Monsterdon

This looks like another incel trying lamely to get the lady #monsterdon

🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️

🪐 KRULLIFIC TRIVIA ⚔️ 🎆

Producers thought an American actress as Princess Lyssa would make more
💰💰💰in the U.S. market, so they just dubbed British actress Lysette Anthony's voice with American actress Lindsay Crouse's voice.

Hollywood Magic!

My mstdn.social instance is being a fuckwad again tonight. #Monsterdon

I’m down for having Chapel Roan as queen #monsterdon

Surprise glaciers!

#Monsterdon

The cyclops freaked me out as a child but really it's comedy actor Bernard Bresslaw from the Carry On films and other horribly dated British movies.
Thinking about it now, can he SEE under that mask?

#Monsterdon

the castle has to fly between worlds but once there it just teleports around, sure. consistency? what's that?

#monsterdon

"You cannot escape me. You will be my queen"

You mean, I have to marry a diffraction grating? Or is it the light on the other side of it?

#monsterdon

Egro looks like Steve Coogan but is not Steve Coogan despite being a silly British man with a long face.
#Monsterdon #Krull

#Monsterdon “The Magnificent” is not fond of Wandering Forest Cyclops. 👁️

#monsterdon

You can tell when a character is a comic one when the other characters smile before he does something funny.

Here in my... fortress of solitude

#monsterdon #Krull

#Monsterdon We’ve reached Tattooine.

If only there were no dialogue, this would be pretty tolerable.

#monsterdon #Krull

Eric Idle probably wanted more money than the budget would allow, so they got David Battley instead.

#Monsterdon #Krull

#Monsterdon I am Ergo! The Bougie Backwoods Hick. Which way to Vermont!?!

tall in stature…and weird in pants #monsterdon

Krull. The planet is called Krull. It's literally the title of the movie, but I forgot it.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Comic Relief Guy tries to goose our hero, gets goosebumps in the process.

“The magnificent…” 😂

"I might've been sucked to death!"

That's what they all say

#Monsterdon

turning into a goose and back is the best way to dry your clothes.

#monsterdon

I kind of expected him to yell out in the manner of Matt Berry ... "GOOSE!"

#Monsterdon #Krull

Oh good, comic relief. #Monsterdon

WILLOW, you eeeeeeeediot!!

#Monsterdon #KRULL

It is a stupid day on Planet Who-gives-a-shit and you are a terrible goose.

#Monsterdon

Comic relief enters

#monsterdon #Krull

@msh It started out looking like an oversize bit of star anise #monsterdon

"travel with us, we need a clown!"

#Monsterdon

Ergo (who just turned himself into a goose) has been in all kinds of stuff.... mostly TV. This was one of the last films he did.

#monsterdon

Meanwhile on a waterfall soundstage. A wizard on fire.
#Monsterdon #Krull

gotta get a discount Eric Idle for our Italian b-movie #Monsterdon

I wouldn't mind being a bat tbh

#monsterdon

It's Charlie Bucket's teacher. #Monsterdon #Krull

Okay, well first off, hello, welcome to the movie. Sorry, I've just recently been scolded on courtesy being a kingly virtue. #monsterdon

What is the technology here? There’s lots of electricity and what appears to be plastics, but they still ride on horses? Will this be explained as I get further into it?#Monsterdon

oh good the party has a rogue now #monsterdon

That's not an ugly goose....you're an ugly goose!

#Monsterdon

shove him back in the pond please

#monsterdon

how the fuck far are they going on horseback. they have lasers and spaceships and they don't have cars or planes?

#monsterdon

"I too was young once." -me talking to my Millennial coworker

#monsterdon #krull

So many Shakespeariaan actors were hired, and the audience just loves their lengthy dramatic readings of everything

#monsterdon

This movie really is just a collection of video game cut scenes without the gameplay. #Monsterdon #Krull

@Lazarou@mastodon.social It's runny jello lava!

#Monsterdon #Krull

This seems like one of those stories that everyone that worked on it has some weird story:
"The scene where he climbs up the mountain? The guy rigging the cables for that fell and died. I shot you not. Totally covered it up."
"I got ptomaine from a chicken salad sandwich from craft services."
