Space Middle Earth Neuschwanstein is a very isolated castle

#Monsterdon

how...romantic, I guess

I hope the Slayers show up soon

#Monsterdon

So, we're watching legally-distinct, totally-not-Spelljammer the Movie, tonight for #Monsterdon ?

I can work with this.

#Monsterdon <is this a pigeon meme> is this romance?

"I've chosen well."

"I've chosen weller."

"Peter Weller?"

"Yes."

#Monsterdon

(But not as hard as I am.)

#ImTwelve
#Monsterdon #KRULL

Those two knew each other before, right
#monsterdon

Is Eddington wearing armored DENIM?

#monsterdon #krull

"I've chosen well."

"I've chosen weller."

"I've chosen wellest!"

#Monsterdon

Hrm, implied mass fight scene.

#monsterdon #krull

Colwyn's marring Merida. #Monsterdon #Krull

"So was my, uh

#monsterdon #Krull

It was given to me to know
that MC's strategic thinking is kinda lacking. #monsterdon

@catzilla oooh so it is! Yeah I knew this soundtrack sounded too good for your typical #Monsterdon

I don't really like star wars so this space knights shit is doing the opposite of hitting for me #monsterdon

#Monsterdon how does he know, does he have a figure husband. And since we now wonder, King, do you like oysters or clams? Ah… you just chew horseradish. Mmmm.

The lead horse is like "get the hell off of me" #monsterdon

@starkraving666 Am 100% getting Python vibes from this entire movie already

🦖#MONSTERDON 🎞️

Many Monsterdonians have lamented the lack of
QUICKSAND
per expectations gained in their youth. Tonight should bring some measure of satisfaction.

A huge quicksand-filled swamp was created in the massive Pinewood Studios 007 studio.

Man, there's not enough trans people messing up prophecies of saviorism.

#monsterdon #krull

so we're switching things up by having the girl be in favor of the arranged marriage. take that, uh, second wave feminists, i guess, since this is 1983... #monsterdon

I guess the alien planet setting is just an excuse for medieval fantasty mixed with space orcs.

I can get behind that.

#Monsterdon

look ok you don't have to be aerodynamic in space but that doesn't mean you should make your spaceship look like a big shitty rock #monsterdon

"...the smoke of burning villages would darken the sky..."
"are there really that many villages here?"
"what do you mean?"
"well, it would take a lot of burning villages to actually darken the sky. I just don't think we have that many."
"maybe it was a metaphor?"
"for what?"
"no idea"

#Monsterdon #Krull

roaming hoards of slayers

no vampires will be safe

#monsterdon #Krull

#Monsterdon we spotted Teela.

It's nice to know that other planets also invented perms

#Monsterdon #Krull

#Monsterdon I do not miss vibrato in narrator voices. Ugh

Spaceballs did it better.
#Monsterdon

We'll have to go over 3000 in the tootstorm tonight

#monsterdon

Are those clowns on horseback? #monsterdon

#Monsterdon The Beast and the Slayers sound like a hella band.

jesus, that was FOUR MINUTES

#Monsterdon

Right, a super high tech rock in space... and they don't even have flashlights. Torches for some, spears for everyone else.

#monsterdon

The Dark Crystal wants it's intro back.

#monsterdon #krull

That escalated quickly

#Monsterdon

Once a ship, now a castle. In the future, hotel and spa!
#monsterdon

It's so yummy and chocolatey

IT’S JAMES HORNER - I’m so proud of my old sci fi soundtrack recognition abilities!! i knew it!!! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon "James Horner, I should've known I'd find you holding the soundtrack's leash. I recognized your flourishes when I came on board."

#Monsterdon Here for #Krull!

(...and young #Eddington from #StarTrekDS9)

Third toot about how much I'm enjoying this soundtrack. #monsterdon

The first scene is in 20 minutes. #monsterdon

OMG! Liam Neeson is in this!? #monsterdon

I guess the question is really "how did tubi survive for so long without using DRM" #monsterdon

#Monsterdon The Igneous Cruiser

Music! #monsterdon

Space, the final frontier. These are the adventures of a piece of petrified wood #monsterdon

This sounds very James Horner #monsterdon

DO NOT ADJUST YOUR SOUND. THE JAMES HORNER WILL CONTINUE UNTIL THE CRYING STOPS.

#monsterdon #krull

@jammerb
Just sit right back and you'll see a fail,
a fail of a fateful film.
It started on this mastodon,
aboard this tiny screen.

The folks were a mighty watching band
The leader brave and sure
They all pressed play at 9 o'clock
for a two-hour tour, a two-hour tour

#monsterdon

A good James Horner soundtrack, decent physical effects and a young Liam Neeson #Monsterdon

doesn't seem like exactly my shit but #Rootpost for #monsterdon

RYGAR, for the NES

#Monsterdon

Oh, it's the B-D-S-M-M-M logo

#Monsterdon

Man, if I was in a space ship spinning that fast, I feel like I would hurl.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon IT'S KRULLING TIME

Glow-in-the-dark ceiling stickers: the final frontier

Cat's burying something in the litterbox. I think he smells the movie.

#monsterdon #krull

Krull (1983) #monsterdon now playing on https://miru.miyaku.media :miyaku:

@wrog There's also only ONE knife in the kitchen and only the chef may use it. #monsterdon

Also: If the King and the Lord Marshall are the **only** guys with The Key to All of the Handcuffs, that seems like a massive administrative bottleneck right there.

HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS KINGDOM WORK?

#Monsterdon #Krull

@That_Damn_Frank Not that you needed anyone’s permission. #Monsterdon

Thank you for letting me post.

I had fun!

#Monsterdon

@bstacey The Fire-Mare thousand leagues' gallop only good feature is that it let us look at some nice horses. I didn't find it thrilling but just one more step in a path that had all been planned in advance. Just my two cents #monsterdon

And how could I forget Dune??? Even Lady Jessica was there #monsterdon

@CactuarJoe @ohiofi Just looking at that product would get a tort lawyer salivating. And it doesn't look anything like a glaive #monsterdon

@ohiofi @CactuarJoe You speak words of wisdom, friend #monsterdon

My #letterboxd review tries to mention the things the film did well, but ultimately it wasn't the film for me: two and a half stars https://letterboxd.com/anderson_petaq/film/krull/ #monsterdon

For those of you scrolling through your timeline, you're about to hit a big mass of Monsterdon postings about Krull (1983).

Should you not wish to read through them, here's how to filter them out, at least on the web browser:
1) right click on the gears & open in a new tab
2) choose "Filters" then "Add New Filter"
3) give the filter a title, check all boxes under contexts, choose hide completely and put "#Monsterdon" in the keyword box.
4) Click on "Save New Filter"

... and you're done.

@GeoffWozniak I hadn't seen it either. Maybe there was a Doctor Who episode where the locals kept yelling "Krull!" ?#Monsterdon

Most of the characters died. What a strange film. #monsterdon

@diazona Seriously, though. My bingo card looks very similar.

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonBingo

@jsadow @paco I'm still waiting for the recontextualization to take place.

#Monsterdon #Krull

The glaive is terrible as a can-opener tool
#monsterdon

@jonny #monsterdon

@JoeWynne I feel like Liam would 100% accept a role in a sequel if offered. Wouldn’t even matter that he died in the first one. #Monsterdon

I love how the aliens do the R2D2 scream when they die.

#Monsterdon

@jsadow @miriamrobern @ryan The princess actress had an English accent and they decided an American accent was needed for marketability, apparently. "They kept my hair", she said bitterly. LOL. #Krull #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤴 ⚔️ 👰 🐉 🔮 😱

thank you @Taweret for hosting, @Cherizilla for bingo, @JoeWynne for the trivia, and pls somebody must know more about the animals who portrayed animals in this movie because each of them was great!

Oh, and most of all, thanks #Monsterdonian for the fun!

They killed Liam Neeson... the Bastards...!

#Monsterdon

The power of love conquers all! #monsterdon

anyway good job team and thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting

#monsterdon #Krull

Did you try turning your glaive off and back on again? After a full power cycle, it should return to your hand

#krull1983 #monsterdon

@diazona @jonny I am hoping they don't really go ahead with plans to reboot this franchise #monsterdon

@bstacey Only their sounds, when certain bad guys died.

#Monsterdon

@miriamrobern But I will say the snippy comments from the princess actress who was dubbed with an actress 15 years older than she, are kind of hilarious, she's definitely got some things to say about #Krull so thanks @ryan for finding the commentary version for your #Monsterdon follow-on!

@ohiofi Krull glaive won't return to hand bug fix? #Monsterdon

@paco Maybe it was your destiny. Like you couldn't have survived this movie drunk. #monsterdon

@wulfric Menacingly "don't use the weapon too early", later... "go ahead, use it as much as you want actually."

#monsterdon

@ramsey @paco Get it right dude otherwise you can't understand the movie because the glaive was lodged in a mountain ON Krull!

#Monsterdon

The way they treated the fire horses, I wonder if this is one of that movies that can say "No animals where hurt during the make of this movie"
#monsterdon

@diazona @brooke O'Neill would have many sarcastic things to say.

#Monsterdon #Krull

@cshlan @miriamrobern I'd be tempted if I didn't have to get dinner and finish my tax return

#Monsterdon

In brief, this movie really needed an extra person at the script stage to read over what they had and go, "This will drag. This is the same as every fantasy story scrawled by a 12-year-old in a Trapper Keeper. *This* is new. Cut here and here, focus here."

#Monsterdon

@miriamrobern @diazona
God help me, I just might.... #monsterdon

@allanb Whenever we've done an actual good movie for #Monsterdon it's been very weird IMO and not as fun. I mean, it's a good experience but of a different kind because we all want to actually watch the movie rather than poke fun at it.

Finally the magic weapon is being used! Also the comic relief guy turned into a badass tiger. Sudden acceleration of interesting events! #monsterdon

Pretty sure I missed a few but this was an epic week for bingo as well
