The trees are alive... with the sound of budget constraints. #monsterdon

No Tasha Yar! Don't go into the black metamucil! #monsterdon

there’s no Black dude. someone gotta be the die. betcha the guy’s Irish. from County Mayo or something like that

#monsterdon #Krull

#Monsterdon GenX is triggered by quicksand. We always expected it, and never found any.

OMG Space Helena Boham Carter just ran into a cervix

#monsterdon #Krull

Poor cyclops left out of the bonding session.....

#Monsterdon

OMG what’s his name, this shape-shifting silly goose?

also, did Peter Jackson totally yanked this hidden waterfall, pond place for Gollum?

they actually copied Krull for the LOTR movies?!?

#monsterdon #Krull

Off-brand Sauron is watching #monsterdon

WAIT! Patrick Star, with switchblades, is gonna save them?

#monsterdon #Krull

Kids, it's not ok to stick your hand into lava

#Monsterdon

and there is nothing like a steam sulphur bath after all that rock climbing

#monsterdon #Krull

"A real king should have the tightest leather pants for a quest"

#Monsterdon

"So it's like Excalibur, right?"

"Shhh, different planet kid, long time ago..."

#Monsterdon

those where the days with hair on their chest. rare to see that in movies these days.

#monsterdon #Krull

so they’re like space Nazguls or something?

#monsterdon #Krull

I watched Dark Crystal as an adult and it wasn't as good as I remembered. Krull was better by far.

#monsterdon

Really glad they avoided the girl in puberty trope. (I'm looking at you, Labyrinth)
#monsterdon

thing about watching krull is that i mainly associate this james horner soundtrack with stealing the enterprise from spacedock #monsterdon

@jonny I always resent the Monarchies in those stories, at least some bandits or pirates abandon hierarchies, but they're usually the 'baddies', Monarchist propaganda! #Monsterdon

I mean those pants aren't David-Bowie-tight, but they're gettin there. Use talc.
#monsterdon

One planet to THE GALAXY is a bit of a stretch, is he a God Emperor or something?

There's your sequel hook anyway

#Monsterdon

It would be shit to be a secondary character and die now, wouldn't it?

#Monsterdon

What he's doing is totally not "the force". It is legally distinct because reasons. #monsterdon

Always set your lair to self destruct moments after you die, I hope modern tyrants take this on board, and do it poorly

#Monsterdon

Legit this is how I felt marrying my wife, we should have gone with the flaming hand idea but she talked me out of it...

#Monsterdon

They're getting picked off faster than rotten kids in a chocolate factory

#monsterdon

Is that Octaman's uncle or something? #Monsterdon

Alternatively, the real Power of Love is being able to cast a dozen fireballs.

#monsterdon #krull

#Monsterdon This is how you catch a terrible case of adventurer. Just leave the ports open. Lazy. So lazy. Now you’ve got adventurers loose inside. This never ends well.

They sniped Wilhelm!

#monsterdon #krull

it's a miracle
#monsterdon

The killing of innocent people is a sacrifice she is willing to make

#monsterdon

"And even in the spider's web, he could not escape The Soundtrack" #monsterdon

#monsterdon

Let’s just watch the hourglass for the next 45 minutes ⏳ #monsterdon

#Monsterdon The big bad’s environment is primarily peristalsis based. She just gets swallowed and pushed along.

#Monsterdon Alone, one may approach the fragrance desk at the local Sephora. If two go? Certain death.

Two Suns!

(I like how they kept with that, most Monsterdon movies would have given up)

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon The bog is gassy. Belches up old men. No place for old men, huh?

I wished for ignorance once. I don't know if my wish came true

#monsterdon

So the princess is just having a bad trip? #monsterdon

#monsterdon This swamp fight is filling me with questions. If slayers can stay underwater, and if they are all armed with ranged weapons, why even bother advancing to hand-to-hand combat range? They didn't need to risk a single casualty in that encounter.

I like how everyone they meet joins them on their quest, I wish real life were like that.

#Monsterdon

That death noise is the same sound I make when I realize I have 2 more hours until I can leave work. #monsterdon

Space Nazgul posse is coming for Space Gandalf’s ass

so which one is Aragorn? am only interested in Aragorn.

also, Robbie Coltrane looks so pororrican.

#monsterdon #Krull

Gandolf von Dumbledore

#monsterdon

That spinning stone is how you log onto the galactic internet, like an old hard drive

#Monsterdon

Kitty doesn't understand either #monsterdon #krull #cats #catsofmastodon

"The Beast betrayed us!"

Imagine people having that done to them, even when everyone knew what 'the beast' was like, tsk tsk

time for some Gallivanting music!

#Monsterdon

Stealing that lore about losing an eye to see the future is understandable. It's a fun bit.

#monsterdon #krull

Ah, a rare volcanic sea star. Nice. #monsterdon

#monsterdon This protracted mountain climbing sequence could have been a swift montage.

*mountaineering boy-king's internal monologue* The hiiiiiills are aliiiiive / with the sound of muuuuusic

ALTERNATE CUT:

Lissa needs braces! / Dental plan / Lissa needs braces! / Dental plan / ...

#monsterdon *boy king dodges a bunch of rocks rolling down the side of the mountain he's scaling to reach The Glaive* right, OK, so this is The Legend of Zelda and right out of the gate he's heading up Death Mountain, got it.

and we’re now in the portion of white man sports… in space: ROCK CLIMBING

#monsterdon #Krull

My man is freestyling that cliff like he was born to climb

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I'm sorry, that shoulder poultice is being held in place with a single loop of gauze around the whiny king's shoulder, the dressing is going to fall off in about five seconds flat. Planet Krull obviously had no boy scout troops and therefore is doomed to lose its battle against The Beast™.

These two had been emailing each other for 6 months but never physically met, you can tell.

The relief they look like what they thought they would...

#Monsterdon

WTF with this music and that bladed star?!?

#monsterdon #Krull

Howl’s Teleporting Castle

#krull1983 #monsterdon

I was thinking about showing my kid La Cité Des Enfants Perdus but we might have to watch Krull together first

#monsterdon

@jonny #monsterdon

You know, I really miss watching good movies -- maybe someday we will find that diamond in the rough

#monsterdon

Of all the movies, that was DEFINITELY one of them.
#monsterdon #krull1983

@mmezabet

This whole [gestures broadly] feels a little gratuitous

#monsterdon #krull1983

The spaceship mountain fortress thing collapses upwards, because of course it does. What did you think, it would collapse downwards? That's boring.
#monsterdon

@georgieboy @Taweret Alien Sex Tourist, it's canon #Monsterdon

shall rule the galaxy? when they just trashed the only spaceship on the planet? #monsterdon

Narrator, take it home
#monsterdon

Kid if you don't stop jingling those cat bells ... I swear to gawd. #monsterdon

But also it's a bit of a plot hole in that The Beast and his Slayers seemed to have way better tech than anyone on this planet. (Who seem to mostly be stuck there. Though how the Cyclops got there was never explained.)

#monsterdon #krull

Um then fire stuff happens? And true love's ... fire ... force.

Somethin.
#monsterdon

And their son will rule the galaxy. Oh, I missed that *that's* why our Big Bad was trying to get something like consent.

#monsterdon #krull

Nice scale shot on the bridge! #monsterdon

"I can throw flames like a WWII flamethrower now?"

handy

#Monsterdon

WHOA THE PRINCESS WAS OVERDUBBED BAD #monsterdon

Chekhov’s fire from my hand

#monsterdon

lol, the old 'Final Boss fake death' routine

#Monsterdon

DUDE! let it go. you were told you could use the chopper only twice. asshat.

#monsterdon #Krull

No one thinks to just turn sideways #monsterdon

Someone take the bell collar off that cat. #Monsterdon

Oh yeah… I almost forgot to use my MacGuffin! #monsterdon

Fire mares are Krull's version of Santa's reindeer

#monsterdon

pew pew

and other things

#Monsterdon

Wait Robbie has a parting speech!
#monsterdon

This is where the red shirts really start to drop, and a few big actors too....

YAYY, Cyclops is resisting fate!

CHAOS MUST REIGN!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon We’re going to shove our sweaty members in that tight crotch of a castle. Just wiggle in there! Come! Now! *splatter*

F to the cyclops, his prophey bit was undercooked

#monsterdon #krull

Horses fly so high everyone passes out and dies. The beast gets his pleasure then fucks off.

#Monsterdon

Terrible day for night #monsterdon

Fire makes everything faster and better #monsterdon

No Fate

#Monsterdon

"I'm going to stay here and die, byethanks!"

#Monsterdon

I don't think wild horses are that easy to tame, or is this a 'charisma' roll?

#Monsterdon

this fate shit stinks

#monsterdon #Krull

Women's roles so far:

1. Having babies that change the world

2. Killing babies for revenge

3. Running through empty corridors

4. Making soup

4. Carrying out assassination orders

#Monsterdon #Krull

@ramsey

Krull is the mind killer

#monsterdon #krull

a reminder that *I* am Liza with a Z, not Lyssa with a L-Y-S-S-A

#monsterdon #Krull

What are the odds that Lyssa Widow of the Web speaks to one of the other named women? #monsterdon

"I killed our son after he was born.....so how are you?"

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Oh for pete's sake, are we about to have a giant spider scene? I could really do without one of those, please and thank you. (Nev don't read this toot.)

edit; YEP THOSE SURE ARE SOME STOP MOTION PEDIPALPS. Right then, I'll just be behind the couch for a little while, see you all again soon.
