Logan's old partner there is acting more like a jilted lover. #Monsterdon
I hope the credits list the name of every cat.
And this one's for Jenny and the wimp!
I did check doesthedogdie dot com and no cats are harmed. So that is good. #Monsterdon
Duncan Idaho going for Jenny Agutter like Beatles fans went for Yoko.....people move on with their lives, get over it folks!
I have absolutely no recollection of what these last 20 minutes contain. I think it's all downhill from Peter Ustinov.
If they'd just called this movie "Planet of the Cats" it would've been much more popular. #Monsterdon
"They're all old men" Yep. That's congress. #monsterdon #LogansRun
and he didn't even bring the synth with him
@diazona Well they made that movie #monsterdon
oh shit space columbo has one last question #monsterdon
oops, third wheel found us. #Monsterdon
Do people just, like, know T. S. Eliot's poetry offhand well enough to recognize it here?
Come on old man. Invent the catapult!
"I want to be this man and eat nuts with cats."
#Monsterdon "You can't fight here, this is the war room!"
Logan ignoring that cat is so rude. #Monsterdon
@starkraving666 and it has warp nacelles! #monsterdon
#monsterdon I like this guy- Bob Wheeler from night court in the past in the future, Jerry Garcia at the bottom of a quarter bag... Thurston Howell fresh off a bender, I can't place him though...
All these cats- Jellicle cat?
πΆ Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
A street lamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning πΆ
Ah he must have found T.S. Eliot. or Toxoplasma, one.
I saw this movie when it came out in the theater, before CATS was on Broadway (but well after Eliot's poems). I never realized this was all a T.S. Eliot CATS reference.
"There' a cat!"
"Hit it with a stick"
"NOOOO...sorry, didn't meant to get too heated about it."
he just really wants to stay there with all the cats #monsterdon
that cat like, jeez, Michael York, could you quit arguing and bloody pet me! #Monsterdon
"They're covered in BERRIES, got it?" #monsterdon
That was so fun. In spite of good judgment and test, Cats holds a special place in my heart in all its schmaltzy, butthole-less glory. #Monsterdon
Oh look! A medbed #monsterdon #logansrun
I like that he memorized Cats, but couldn't remember the Declaration :P #Monsterdon #OrWhateverHeWasTryingToSay
actually it makes sense that macavity caused the apocalypse #monsterdon
This has taken on the feel of a play in a small town playhouse. There's one good actor who has been in professional shows, and everybody else is just scenery that talks now and then. #Monsterdon
Honestly on the fence about whether i love this guy more than Box, i think i might. #monsterdon
*old man ranting continues* "...and a computer came and removed their bungholes, every last one..." #monsterdon
THIS BELONGS TO THE PEOPLE! #monsterdon #logansrun
it belongs to the people... and the cats. #Monsterdon
@jonny He's literally quoting Cats, just he's quoting T.S. Elliot, not A.L. Webber. #Monsterdon
Ah, I finally have time to read
Now I see why this movie is two hours long #monsterdon
@srol DOES THAT WORD HAVE ANY OTHER MEANING BECAUSE IT REALLY WAS #monsterdon
"They're berried? Like fruitcake?" #monsterdon
I'd give you one of my best cats! #monsterdon
So, I guess this guy only knows one book? #monsterdon
but this movie predates Cats apparently #monsterdon
@paco You could do worse TBH
WHOA FUCK THINGS REALLY ARE GETTING JELLICAL IN HERE #Monsterdon
OK BOOMER #monsterdon
i would watch "old man yells about cats" as a feature length film
The old man is another robot, yes?
Asparagus, but that's such a fuss...to pronounce. We just call him Gus. #Monsterdon
Peter Ustinov in all his roles is so great at looming in a way that is simultaneously unthreatening. #Monsterdon
"My mother! And my, you know, um... you know... he went out for milk."
@apLundell@octodon.social A bold move in any case!
#Monsterdon #LogansRun
Awww. I love it when cats say "Hewwow" Two at once welcoming visitors is adorable.
#Monsterdon #LogansRun
he's just this guy, you know. #Monsterdon
WHICH ONE IS RUMPLETEAZER?????
#monsterdon
I can't decide if this old guy is great or annoying. #monsterdon
Wait wait wait ... are things about to get ... jellical? #Monsterdon
...remember when I said the thing about the Heaviside Layer earlier? #monsterdon
Oh no, this is me, they found me in the ruins. #monsterdon
Welcome to the Heavyside Layer?
The Library of Cat Pets?
#Monsterdon #LogansRun
NO NOT CATS #monsterdon
"CATS, y'dumbass!"
Heβs been alone for quite some time. Of course you can touch him, Jenny Agutter. #Monsterdon
FANCY NAMES #monsterdon
Andrew Lloyd Webber survived the apocalypse and he's still ripping off T.S. Elliot. #monsterdon #LogansRun
@forward I'm just skipping 30 seconds forward every time it looks like the action is stalling #monsterdon
"Cats!" With fancy names. They predicted Mastodon, too. Very prescient, this movie. #Monsterdon
The cats have the best dialogue. #Monsterdon
Now that you discover the first "old" person you meet is totally bonkers, do you really want to be old? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon "Oh, *Cat* Sanctuary. We're a cat cafe. Haven't seen much business, though. Well, pull up a seat. Pet me? Look, young lady, don't you want to pet the cats?"
"I'm as old as I am, I suppose." That's sensible. Dude doesn't have much use for dates, I imagine.
#Monsterdon #LogansRun
When do the cats start dancing?
"Are you alone here?" "Hardly, I've got all these cats"
This is what the Fediverse is like
In today session we discuss the catnip shortage
(crowd mumbles in worry)
#monsterdon
what kind of apocalypse could leave behind a survivable computer paradise but also have eradicated all humans fast enough that nobody would have fucked around with lincoln's head and stuff #monsterdon
"Hey, it's that guy from the chair back there!" #monsterdon
His Face. His Hair. His Smell. Is that what it is to grow old?
We have now reached a #monsterdon/#CatsOfMastodon crossover!
Kudzu really got out of hand here #monsterdon
Elderly catboy librarians of the future!
is this the uh. uh. big archive place. National Archives?? #monsterdon
Itβs a cat sanctuary! #Monsterdon
yes I'm still on this, no i didn't take this photo #monsterdon
Ok, I am lolling at this place that was established next year #monsterdon #logansrun
I can instantly relate to this Ustinov like dude
CATS. #monsterdon
Imagine youβre about to turn 30 and this is the first time youβve seen a cat in your life #monsterdon
@Configures @moira Yeah but it's more that numbers seem more interesting than last names
I wonder what that says about me lol
Some part of me appreciates how #monsterdon becomes more and more out of sync as the movie progresses
Hey, they found Newt Gingrich! Still Speaker after all these years. #Monsterdon
hell yeah cat grandpa #monsterdon #lifegoals
If only that rip in her dress would drop a little lower
"Oh he's so cute. It's a little alligator lizard"
Annnnnd, it's Mungojerrie and Rumpleteezer!
Where are the morlocks?
#monsterdon
OMG! This was the Planet of the Apes all along!
#Monsterdon #LogansRun
With these clothes and sets, there should have been a landing party from the Enterprise by now.
The cat's happy someone's finally there to feed them. #Monsterdon
