Wait what the. Why does this random dude have a bazooka? What the???

#Monsterdon

This is why we need the right to have RPG's to be protected
#monsterdon

Bubba just hapens to have a bazooka, totally normal American things #MaximumOverdrive #monsterdon

WHY DOES HE POSSESS THIS WEAPON #MONSTERDON

#Monsterdon WTAF?! Is that a bazooka in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

someone should recut all this dialogue over a simpsons episode #monsterdon

Dude, they were just hungry. You're a *gas station*.

Now you're an *enemy*.

#monsterdon #maximumoverdrive

I'm guessing NC has lax gun laws but a rocket launcher? And can it turn evil? #Monsterdon

Those don't reload, they're fucking expendable! AND WHERE DID HE GET THEM

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

They sell bazooka rockets at truck stops?

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

The Mack Pinto was not a popular model.

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

#Monsterdon 🚚 🤖 📠 🏧 😱

Cool chick had a knife in her boot!

#Monsterdon
#MaximumOverdrive

Thurston and Miller look PISSED that Bubba found rocket launcher & rockets in his Christmas stocking. What kind of Santa Claus goes to S. Carolina?

was that a straight razor our protagonist just whipped out?

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

I'm having some quiet time instead of #monsterdon this week, but reading y'alls comments is great :comfypopcorn: 🚛 🚚🛻 :kaboom:

We got a great big convoy. Ain't it a beautiful sight.
#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

She's got infomercial hands that's how her arm is stuck

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

@diazona So much about this experience pains me a little

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

lol trying to thread the needle at approximately 15 MPH, good work buddy #Monsterdon

Today Duke Boy, tomorrow the world!

#Monsterdon

Come on Curtis you had a lot of space between those trucks #MaximumOverdrive #monsterdon

#Monsterdon i hope the cars squash her

#monsterdon I don’t think this marriage is destined for success

"Eat this."

That's what she said? #Monsterdon

I wonder how much of this was King just wanting to smash cars. #Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

@catzilla Evil sprinklers

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

was that a fucking rocket launcher

#monsterdon

#monsterdon This is the dumbest of all time. I stand by that.

they should've tried to join the convoy

merge in

blend in

the perfect crime

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

#Monsterdon They really do have _themselves_ a convoy!

It pains me a little that an exploding truck didn't let me mark off anything on my bingo card

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon ARE THEY DEAD

She raises a very good question. Why do they need to get into this particular truck stop? Just to play the video games??

#Monsterdon

"Eat this."

Yes'm! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Seldom has the Mack truck bulldog looked so sinister as when it's tailgating the newlyweds

At least PUT YOUR DAMN SEATBELTS ON... Christ. #Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

Trucks of the world UNITE!

#Monsterdon

that newlywed guy is sounding more like Bart Simpson every minute....

#monsterdon

If I'm honest, I'm kind of regretting watching this movie for #Monsterdon, because any jokes I tell about this movie are guaranteed to be less funny than the movie itself.

@nazokiyoubinbou The whole "what are the rules??" thing is so distracting.

Like, can the trucks somehow drive after they run out of fuel? Or do we just need to wait it out? They don't have that much fuel and the way they're driving they're burning through it quick. They don't have any way to refuel, either.

I dunno. Whatever, movie.

Bring back splodey vehicles you cowards!

#Monsterdon

Truck the pain away

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon CURTIS, THEY HAVEN’T STOPPPED!!!!!

Setting up a little Heaven’s Gate circle dance. #Monsterdon

Very convenient of the truck to pre-explode before it actually explodes

#Monsterdon

Oh, look - trucks are going crazy - let’s go to a TRUCK STOP! #Monsterdon

I, too, would yell at Curtis if I was stuck in a car with him #Monsterdon

All I can hear is Lisa swearing her ass off.

Fetch mama's pryin' bar, you goddamn asshole cocksucker

#monsterdon

"We can call the police-"

Chief it's gone a leeeeeettle beyond the boys in blue here. #Monsterdon

The diffuse gas also makes trucks go asplodey #Monsterdon

ayy first car explosion
#monsterdon

@nazokiyoubinbou my thoughts exactly... the physics does not compute

Trying very hard not to think about that

#Monsterdon

I thought the lawnmower was going to get more than just that one scene #monsterdon

I think 80 to 90 percent of Yerdly's dialog is just screaming "Curtis!" over and over. #Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

How are all the undead trucks moving in such an orderly manner? #Monsterdon

#monsterdon I mean I wouldn’t have let him drive in the first place

it caught fire out of sheer self-loathing for letting the humans escape.

#monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

#Monsterdon 🚚 🤖 📠 🏧 😱

It's too bad this is a straight flat road - based on my recent road trip I can confirm that a gentle curve or a slight uphill grade would allow that car to easily outmaneuver that truck.

lmao, it was already exploding as it crested the hill #monsterdon

i like how anti-truck this movie is #monsterdon #maximumoverdrive

EXPLOSIONS! YEAH! #MaximumOverdrive #monsterdon

DIXIE BOY TRUCK STOP: VIDEO GAMES AND SHOWER FACILITIES

everything u need on the road

#monsterdon

...And the truck spontaneously bursts into flame. Okay sure, why not. #Monsterdon

Why didn't they just stay off the road and brake hard?

Oh right -- no smart decisions allowed in a horror movie.

#Monsterdon

I think Bic may have regretted this product placement.

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

"Why?"

"I dunno"

...

I don't know either. Nobody knows WTF is going on here. Mr. King didn't even know

#Monsterdon

"Just married" is a protection spell

#Monsterdon

@europlus I guess a Boston accent would qualify, that one's pretty distinctive

I haven't heard one yet though

#Monsterdon

Also why is it in these movies that no car can outrun a trailer truck?

I'm not an expert, but I don't think diesel engines (without even turbo chargers or anything!) aren't exactly optimal for chasing cars.

This isn't even the only movie to do that.

#Monsterdon

Drive FASTER!

#Monsterdon

I'm scared too, Lisa

#Monsterdon

Is where the movie name comes in, the Mack truck has shifted into Maximum Overdrive? Is that a thing in a Mack truck shift tree?

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

There's a bit of the Prometheus School of Running Away from Things going on #MaximumOverdrive #monsterdon

Yeah take an exit, that'll get 'em

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

There was a time a semi truck could catch up to a car on the road?

#Monsterdon

there really does continue to be no explanation for why their car hasn't turned on them. i hope it does immediately after they escape the truck

#monsterdon

What is it about trucks that lets them get taken over but not cars. It's not size, since lawn mowers can get taken over too... #Monsterdon

So are all the electronics simply murdery now? Will a classic car, lovingly restored by it's owner, still kill them?

Movie, we need answers.

What of the automotive soul?

#monsterdon #maximumoverdrive

@jonny So in this universe, all of our wifi-enabled devices would be mostly fine, but your analog devices would be trying to kill you. This movie is IoT propaganda.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon this is no time to load your pants

The subtitles just said "Cum?"

#Monsterdon

It's always sweet when cousins marry.

#Monsterdon

I can't help but to feel like all anyone truly has to do is just... You know, actually dodge the not even really that fast moving trucks or whatever and just run away on a not road that it can't just drive on. Or am I just making it too easy?

#Monsterdon

Nice swerve

#Monsterdon #MaximumOverdrive

Okay everyone stay calm, we know Yeardley will be okay because we know Lisa Simpson is still alive

To the Capitalist, it's not that Machines are taking over and one of his workers is dead, it's that the trucks are invading HIS property....

#Monsterdon

Very important to have shower facilities with your video games.

#monsterdon

I don't remember Bibles being scarce enough in the 80s for someone to make a living selling them. Then again, I was raised in the Bible Belt...

#Monsterdon

I wonder what the truck equivalent of musical chairs is

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon No idea what a New England reference or accent would be, though - problem with growing up in the antipodes.

Um... I missed something... This doesn't make sense. Could someone explain what's happening? #Monsterdon. I guess I should have started 30 minutes earlier. I'll catch the beginning some time... Well, if the end makes it worth sense. This is... Oops... That's a lot of fire ...

#monsterdon Has anyone though about.. tacks.. oh, never mind..

Not sure that car commercial is well placed.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Oh we got a great big convoy rocking through the night. We got a great big convoy, ain't she a beautiful sight.

Curtis a real catch, she done good
