Thought by they were saying “good German” and whew that was close. #Monsterdon

@socketwench Oh great, "We better split up!" -- He-man. #MastersOfTheUniverse #Monsterdon

Honestly, bovines are one of the most diplomatic options for first contact with Earth. #Monsterdon

No the movie will calm down the younguns in the audience with slapstick after all that trauma.

Yeah. We're going to milk the cow for all its worth.

#Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse(1987)

@SRLevine huh TIL that was a reference

#Monsterdon

They have their own time units, but use base 10 numbers

#monsterdon

@gnomon Who is beefier, though? #monsterdon

beep
#monsterdon

“It might be intelligent life.”

Not in this movie, pal. Not in this movie.

#Monsterdon

Housemate: "I'm going upstairs."

Me: "Go ahead...leave me! Alone! With The Movie! SAVE YOURSELF!"

#monsterdon

One McGuffin, lost. #monsterdon

@neia Yes this film is a subtle comment on nuclear deterrence in the 1980s.

#Monsterdon

@ricci hitting up etymonline until something happens #monsterdon

@Taweret who needs charisma and screen presence when you are as well-baked & basted as Dolph? #Monsterdon

🐂

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

All random land areas come complete with perimeter sectors. This is widely known. #monsterdon

Poor Billy. That costume looks excruciating.

#Monsterdon

It's Monica! she is not a chef yet.
#monsterdon

Was this movie made before or after the term "master(s) of universe" became a reference to a certain type of white man who worked in finance?

Also in the obscure reference to more modern materials category: any chance Jaqueline Carey saw this movie before writing Dark Currents in the Agent of Hel (yes that's spelled correctly) trilogy?

(why no, I'm not actually paying attention to this movie, why do ask?)

#Monsterdon

@ramsey oh God yeah it was. I grew up on 80's cartoons even as a 90s kid. #Monsterdon

RUN

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

fuck it's giant ALF

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

@jonny "portkey" from the books that shall not be named makes me think that there is some alternative society out there where "key" means something different than I'm used to

#monsterdon

Teela had a real problem pronouncing "Ferflary warblat" or whatever she was trying to say. #Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

"All I have to do is hit the energizer switch, and, uh..."

unfortunately, he only has duracell

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

Film Theory: There were two Grildo of Feener puppets. A "wet" Grildo of Feener and a "dry" Grildo of Feener. #monsterdon

"I had no time to [WHAT?] the coordinates" ?

#Monsterdon

Has anyone seen the cartoon before? Oh well that doesn't matter for the plot.
Are you familiar with Jack Kirby's Fourth World? That is important to the plot.
#Monsterdon #MasteroftheUniverse

Wow I'm glad there are commercial breaks; I kind of need them. This movie is too hawt.
#monsterdon

All we have to do is punch the Energizer switch and it'll keep going, and going, and going, and...

#monsterdon

To do WHAT to the coordinates??

#monsterdon #mathEducation

#Monsterdon "I dare anything! I am Skeletor!"

... He-Man makes some sexual innuendo about their enemies to lovers arc.

@moira Then gave up on the little troll guy #monsterdon

Meanwhile, Harry Kim's "Sliders" recreation gets mixed up with Tom Paris' "Master's of the Universe" program.

And we're just gonna have to suffer through it.

#monsterdon

So inventor dude accidentally made a key that let #skeletor in the back door and now there he captured the priestess of gray skull and they're fighting their way out. And LOL the #MacGuffin #gizmo

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

#Monsterdon Spectacularly accurate grappling hook capture for the save!

@lorgonumputz That’s your line? #Monsterdon

"I must possess all or I possess nothing." Common refrain with the powerful and ambitious.

#MastersOfTheUniverse #Monsterdon

Skeletor? Capitalist. #monsterdon

Not loving how He-Man's main weapon so far has been a blaster #monsterdon

bro you can't call a teleportation machine a "key," like technically sure it gets you through locks, but that's like saying you don't need to add milk to your coffee because it's actually gatorade #monsterdon

Okay, the grappling hook retrieval bit was too much.

#Monsterdon

Are they in Oz now? #Monsterdon

Why is the Skeletor palace reminding me of a RuPaul’s Drag Race stage? Can we have a lipsync battle soon? #Monsterdon

See, in this movie, the Everything Bagel has a butthole, too.

#monsterdon

the makeup guy worked _so hard_ to make skeletor's lips move. _So_ hard.

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

convenient claw game #monsterdon

Grappling hook for the win! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Are we watching Masters of the Universe or Sliders?

Well at least that wormhole is stable

#Monsterdon

With my particular set of interests, I've seen a lot of butthole portals in my day. But I've never seen one this caked up before. #monsterdon

Is Skeletor wearing a black banana hammock over his grey tights? Dare he do that fashion faux pas?
#Monsterdon #MasteroftheUniverse

Jumping through the giant anus energy portal and taking their butt plug with them
#monsterdon

The sorceress is protected by ray shields! Wait... wrong movie.

#Monsterdon

@Agrippa A 90s He-Man kid? What He-Man was on in the 90s? #Monsterdon

@wohali _That's_ what I wasn't getting to, dang

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

yeah! get in the hole! wait. #monsterdon

@SnoopJ Chekov's musical instrument #monsterdon

@moira not the Everything Bagel? 😂

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon run Dolph get to the far gate

BATARANG!!! #monsterdon

WOops, director said to block that shot right don't forget

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

Evil-Lyn has *quite* the bra on. 😆

#Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

I’m sensing we’re not going to get one of those adorable Skeletor laughs.

#Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse1987

Quick! Everyone into the visual effect! I can only fend off so many lasers with my sword! #Monsterdon

Little dudes key thingy sounds like Windows Me booting up or something I am amused #Monsterdon

If I could say to my grandchildren, "I starred in Masters of the Universe," it would be the proudest moment of my life.
#monsterdon

"I won't leave her!"

"You must!"

There's more than an hour of movie still to go! #Monsterdon

So Wildor didn't think his universal key would work? ok, Doc Brown. #monsterdon

@anne

There are no accidents.

#Monsterdon

Oh, there's The Goonies influence too, with that grappling hook....

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon Get in there. I don't care what you smell!

Faux crystals were big for a while. #Monsterdon

The hair! Watch the hair! #Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

The Skeletor makeup makes him look like Jack Palance.
#Monsterdon

Frank Langella, the actor that plays Skeletor is awesome! As a 90s He-Man kid this movie was gold. #Monsterdon

Grildo of Feener Figures Out His New Phone #monsterdon

I mean, these guards *definitely* trained with the stormtroopers. #monsterdon

Stargate open! #Monsterdon

That's got to be reaction gif

#IAmSkeletor

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

the craziest episode of Sliders i've ever seen. #monsterdon

This is the worst he-man sword handling ever!
#monsterdon

Gwildor and Annikin are friends.

#monsterdon

that's once fancy gadget. look at all 'em moving parts #Monsterdon

Skeletor is a bit chatty. #Monsterdon

He's opening a portal to Disco! #monsterdon

Having trouble mapping cartoon with movie. #monsterdon

has soft skeletor ever been tested for rickets? #Monsterdon

@JamesAkers they actually put some effort into the sets and costumes and props for this thing!

#monsterdon

That's a very impressive harmonic tuning fork, i have to admit

#monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

when does he sing the hey ya song i thought that was canon #monsterdon

#monsterdon 13:30 into the movie and we already have Inspirational Skeletor @skeletor

Evil Lyn looks like she would go on to star in Robert Palmer videos. #Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse

Christina Pickles (the sorceress) was in Friends along with Courtney Cox, right? Is this film how they connected? #monsterdon

Is the dude with moustache supposed to be Adam? #monsterdon

I love the light FXs. So good - so very prismatic!

#monsterdon

reminder that Frank Lagella, who plays Skeletor, is an Oscar-nominee. #monsterdon

mm, a sword AND a pew pew pistol. aspirational. #monsterdon

@strangefour omg I thought I was missing something. Justice for Orko!
#Monsterdon
