Time to either press play and watch the movie with us or mute the hashtag #monsterdon for two hours!
LETS GOOOO

Gotta say the long intro credits kind of makes me nostalgic #monsterdon
Now I wanna watch Army Of Darkness
Live from Augustaβ¦ itβs The Masters
@Configures @apLundell I always thought that Greyskull was originally Skeletor's digs, until Prince Adam's father forced Skeletor out from it.
@CactuarJoe the cow was last seen next to the ribs restaurant. i don't think she's coming out intact ;_; #Monsterdon
... wasn't that a very quiet town that Skeletor invaded? No citizens driving/walking around, etc., to see all the flying hoverboards and thrones and such, or the laser firefight ...
I guess everybody was watching the firemen & cops poke through the ashes at the high school (or wherever the battle of the bands was being held).
@SordidAmok I'm keen to see #monsterdon in the trending tags tomorrow, but I'm also delighted at the coverage we got for many a #SuperbOwl on #SuperbOwlSunday (aka #superb_owl_sunday and a tag worth clicking!)
@RamenCatholic @r343l I do feel like this would be better if the script had been written by Kevin Smith, but I'm still looking forward to it.
@r343l ok I can work with Alison Brie as Evil-Lynn. I'll give it a shot for that casting. #Monsterdon
Gave it two and a half stars on my #letterboxd review https://letterboxd.com/anderson_petaq/film/masters-of-the-universe/ #monsterdon
Big thanks to @Taweret for hosting tonight's movie; it was actually better than I remembered it being. Of course, not being trapped in a theater seat for the twenty minutes or so of "Welcome to Earth!" helped a lot.
The ending of Masters Of The Universe clearly paid homage to Time Pirates, with the time travel back to the parents being alive and Courteney Cox shouting "MOM DAD DON'T TOUCH IT IT'S EEEEEVIL"
What was the best He-Man toy? Why was it Man-e-Faces and why wasn't he in the movie? https://he-man.fandom.com/wiki/Man-E-Faces #Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse
@plaidtron3000 Post-credits scenes are common nowadays, but this was one of the early films that included one.

@SordidAmok Like Logan's Run? #monsterdon

#monsterdon
@maple It's em bloody 'elf n safety people. Always makin us install railings n suchlike. #monsterdon
@ohiofi My God!!! LMBO!!! #Monsterdon
HeMan was meh. But Skeletor can call me anytime.
#Monsterdon
@apLundell see they could've made a fantastic back to the future 2-style sequel #monsterdon
If I had seen this at 17, when it first came out, I might have ripped my own head off. In my middle age, on a Sunday night with the #monsterdon crowd, itβsβ¦ still terrible, but context makes it bearable.
Oh, look, a post-credits scene. I guess Ferris Bueller had just come out the previous yearβ¦
Thanks, @4 8 15 16 23 42, hope that makes up for the Star Creatures. Until next weekβ¦
@apLundell maybe that was going to be the pitch for the next movie? given the post credits scene and evil Lyn's early departure?
The night gown. #Monsterdon LOL
@SordidAmok Or The Fellowship of the Ring? #monsterdon
The best part is that you can tell they thought the movie was going to be a winner. So many references and actors from successful movies/tv, but they didn't really make anything original. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon I asked #SplendaDaddy to mansplain Skeletor's back story, and his motivations make sense now.
So, they're stuck in a time loop now, right?
@ramsey @Taweret @Cherizilla "Sssmookin!" #itsNotEasyBeingGreen #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe She needs to hookup with Dr. Mrs. The Monarch. Power duo from HELL. #Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse
He-Man: βI HAVE THE POWER!β
Thatβs what weβre here for.
β©#Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse1987
Thank you @Taweret for hosting. I absolutely want one of those costumes.
#Monsterdon
@Lazarou That's what Lubic was for.
Post-credit scene for the sequel set-up.
Holy shit there's a post-credits scene #monsterdon
Another #Monsterdon has come to an end. As always thanks to our host for tonight @Taweret.
If you missed-out on tonight's fun you can join us next week by following the hashtag #MonsterdonAlert and voting on the next feature! Sometime tomorrow @Taweret will post a poll to pick the next movie using this hashtag.
Just vote - even if this would be your first time. Then next Sunday watch with us.
And his eyes open, yes, we know. #Monsterdon
So he-man and his sidekicks prevailed despite the meddling of the useless earthlings and the bastard cop gets to retire in eternal comfort and baby Monica gets to fix her future
THE END
Thanks for the pointless, cheezy yet delightfully entertaining #Monsterdon @Taweret ! It was great pointless fun!
can't believe skeletor died because nobody installed a railing around the bottomless pit
Ah, the Don't Kill Him, I Want Him Alive mistake.
Evil-Lyn knows a loser when she sees one.
I just feel like I need to point out that that is not how the portal worked
Golden God Skeletor better not awaken anything in me. #Monsterdon
@muhkayoh #Monsterdon is the best at this
You brought her you Golan-Globus. Or something. That was delightful. And by delightful I mean dreadful in all the best ways. What a great pallet cleanser. Thanks to @Taweret for not only hosting but suggesting the flick! #Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse
Ok, those granny nightgowns are the BEST and I wish I owned one right now! #Monsterdon
Back in their timeline before they ever helped HeMan so they don't. The End , Credits
Wow. This was a pretty good movie. I'm glad I never got to see this until now. Seeing all these stars when they were really young is something.
alright, i unironically loved that movie, good journey everybody! #monsterdon
@trixter not used to monsterdon movies having actual credits at the end π₯΄
let alone stuff after
#monsterdon
@Lazarou I really wanted her to run out into the street, having saved her parents, and get hit by a car. #monsterdon
but like, that's now how the portal worked tho
They are standing on the street and the parents ordered a taxi. Whoops! #monsterdon
@brooke They're going to Butterfly Effect their Donnie Darkos! #Monsterdon
Are you saying this movie isn't canon or something?
Show the book, and it can't be a cartoon
Okay yall, this is A REQUIRED WATCH FOR RIGHT AFTER THE MOVIE LET'S JAM THE FUCK OUT WITH CLAMS OUT
And so ends another #Monsterdon. @Taweret has our thanks for hosting; the rest of you, posters and lurkers, we also thank for being a part of this motley crew. And remember #Monsterdoners: Good journey!
pondering the orb
#monsterdon
uh okay we fixed plot stuff that we didn't even know needed to be fixed
Neither the loneliness of good nor the loneliness of evil match the loneliness of boredom.
he man just sorta has gay man friends and friends in the leather scene and likes their aesthetic and so just sort of adopted the speedo/straps/boots look #monsterdon
WHAT? They sent her back in time? This is going to mess up the continuum. I feel like Tom Paris should know this.
#Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse
that's not how it worked tho
Period supply commercial #Monsterdon
but that's not how the portal worked
Someone remind me mid-week to tell the story of the airplane keys. It's good, you won't want to miss it.
Toyota 4runner in the garage and scene #monsterdon
Aaand they wake up on an Earth where the Russians won. #Monsterdon
she only thought of that now??? lady, that was like half your character's motivation, you didn't wanna ask for it to begin with? #monsterdon
Hahahahaha
That wasnβt directly stolen from Star Wars AT ALL #Monsterdon
AAAAAA SHE'S A STEPFORD WIFE
And Dolph passes the meathead torch to Tom Paris. #Monsterdon
So, like, did they just kill off Skeletor in this film? Do they not understand the term franchise?
#Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse
Three weeks later, Lubic was eaten #monsterdon
"yeah lol I'm not going back the rest of the force thinks I'm crazy" #monsterdon
"Welp we ran out of budget before we got to the final fight. Movie's over."
The guy that plays Blade and was the sword fight coordinator, "Hang hold my beer and put me in that Gold armor of Skeletor's. Hey lighting guy I got an idea and it's very minimal."
#Monsterdon #MasteroftheUniverse
setting up a sequel? now _that's_ some arrogance
He's not going to say the line, is he?
Skeletor is dead and he's not going to say the line
Where did the cops' Eternia girlfriend pop up from?
Wait - they gave the castle to the cop?!?! #monsterdon
And with that, Sam and Frodoβs journey ended. #Monsterdon
"And we got one less cop! Everybody wins!"
did Skeletor just get overloaded from a power line? #monsterdon
Dolph Lundgren's got a sweet sweet bod, but he's got the charisma of a wet tuna sandwich. #Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse
FINALLY SOMEONE USES THE DEATH PITS!
#Monsterdon #MastersOfTheUniverse
They fucked up the line?! Isn't it supposed to be by the power of Grayskull?
No, this isn't Empire Strikes Back or Return of the Jedi either! Really! Honest.
If you squint you can make out the stagehands dismantling the set.
My mom as the two heavies battle it out: "Don't cross the streams!"
#Monsterdon skeletor coulda put a locked cage around the sword
but NOOOOOOOO
*The Touch begins to play*
#Monsterdon #MasteroftheUniverse
#Monsterdon Correction on previous toots: it's an enemies to lovers to enemies plot.
