Rock monster! Dun-dun-dun-dunnnnnn!

#missiletothemoon #Monsterdon

This dude had 10 levers numbered 1-10 during take-off. But now he's pushing random ones as they yell "Brake 1, Brake 2" etc.
#monsterdon #missiletothemoon

they come around every seventeen numnums?

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

I should just start repeating my toots from the other movie

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Diamonds - as valuable but smaller and much lighter than gold.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

Looks like another trip to the "gold cave" is in order.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon #DoubleFeature

Gary sucks

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Y'know, this one's technically better in a lot of ways but honestly it's way worse. No evil lesbians, the only competent member of the crew turned into June Cleaver with literal pearls and mostly written out...

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

So, the (dead) designer of the moon rocket was a moon man sent to spy on earth.

#monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai Yeah I mean the cat-women were doing metallurgy

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

"Tell me about [Earth's climate, atmosphere, etc]. You didn't have a telescope?

#monsterdon

Wait, is his name Dick or Dirk?

#monsterdon

@jonny I think they mistook him for the vessel cause of the medallion and he;s just playing along

#monsterdon

"Yes, it is dick, he has returned!"

That's what all the cat-women say!

#monsterdon

Oh right, the medallion. I remember that. It's very important, or something.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

The food was made when?

#monsterdon

"First thing I want you to do is change into the outfits in that locker room." This #monsterdon got gay really fast. #MissileToTheMoon

OMG the moon Gumby looks like it’s made of Jell-O #Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

I did not think it was possible to get less can women-y than the last one but I gotta hand it to them they pulled it off

#monsterdon

ok so we are no longer in cat-woman territory at all, the sapphic gynocracy is just abstract blue moon women, which is basically the same as the cat-women who had literally no shared qualities with cats except their eyebrows sorta #monsterdon

Hospitality is a big deal in Orlando (Moon)

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Welcome to Orlando?

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

Oh okay we've graduated from cigarettes to cigars I guess
#monsterdon

haha first time watching a movie on tubi and apparently ad blockers work, the movie just pauses and unpauses for a second. that's some nice DRM they've got there #monsterdon

Gas. And you idiots took off your spacesuits. Well FUCKING done.

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

"First thing to do is get out of these suits"

That's right, immediately discarding the things that hold all of your supplementary equipment and are a nuisance to don and doff.

The plot's gotta proceed, though.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

ok, we're late. but it seems everyone has moved to #monsterdon #missiletothemoon. @steggy and I are just getting going on the double feature

Ok. Thing is cool.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

ah they don't want to go into the giant moon spider cave? I wonder why not

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

sure

shoot some rocks

why not

i'm sure none will ricochet and tear your suits

that never happens in movies like this

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

Y'know the Claymation effect would be a pretty decent way to convey "on the moon" if you don't want to bother to simulate reduced gravity

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Oh no, we're penned in by these clumsy shambling rock monsters!

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

couldn't even be bothered to _weed_ before shooting this thing

amazing

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

The rocket's brakes sound like constipated whales

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Everyone has guns for Reasons

#monsterdon

see now this is some Radar Men moonscape

looking for the Moon Car now

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

@moira Yeah, the Heinlein, Sprague and Asimov designed ones we cooler.

#monsterdon

At least they have air tanks now.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

in the like 2 years since the original movie, we have changed the aesthetic of space from "weird ass sphereical helmets" to "just air force helmets" #monsterdon

Are the levers numbered out of order?

#monsterdon

Way more convenient spacesuits.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon #DoubleFeature

I sure hope someone brought cigarettes again

#monsterdon

it's nice of the cat women to have built a German missile launch site on the moon for them

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

Every space mission in the 50's simply had to have one fight among the crew

They build it into the mission plan and everything

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@hanabananana67 We watch a movie ~Saturday~ SUNDAY 8 PM CT, run by @Taweret , and live toot.

#Monsterdon

omfg the main professor guy was the one that was infected by the cat-women, and that's why he's been building the illegal rocket this whole time #monsterdon

Hmm, this time it's the MAN that has suspicious knowledge WHAT A TWIST

#monsterdon

@hanabananana67 Muahaha! MUAHAHA!!!! It’s alive! ALIVE I tell you!!!!! #Monsterdon is the mind bending HORROR created by the Dark Servants of Planet Mordgrebdt!
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
Catthulhu is PLEASED!!!!!

maybe this is the time when the cat-women make contact with helen 2.0 to give her super powers to guide them safely to the cat-woman temple #monsterdon

Oh for fuck's sake

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Guessing that Gary is going to be the one easily duped by the catwomen by the promise of riches/etc. once they're on the surface

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

Slipstick calculations!

#monsterdon

@jonny i’ve been away from the timeline and had to skip #monsterdon tonight so when i saw these toots i immediately assumed it was talking about elon

and the 50s scientist with the penetration again

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

@Newpa_Hasai @ricci OMG this is fantastic

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@Newpa_Hasai @diazona thank you for this important information on this blessed day

#monsterdon

WOW OKAY they actually went to the work to put an actual V2 onto a starfield?!

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

Someone remarked last week that we should have a gallery of the best #monsterdon hats. And I think these space helmets get an honorable mention. They've got some real interesting design.

@SnoopJ i think it actually works great in colour though. i love the cat women in Missile to the Moon, they have blue skin #Monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai Also, the captain is armed with a Luger. I did Nazi that coming.

#monsterdon

I guess back then you could just launch anytime you felt like it. None of that fancy NASA calculating crap.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

Cool model earth, but I'd want to check as to if that was reused from Project Moonbase

#monsterdon

Cut to... V-2 stock footage?

#monsterdon

Hmm, so, knowing that your rocket ship is getting activated, has someone in it, and has smoke wafting out the bottom... clearly the smart thing to do is walk right under the engine

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

That guy who built the ship also solved the gravity problem.

#MissleToTheMoon #Monsterdon Double Feature

Oh good we still have seatbelts on the office chairs, all is right with the world

#monsterdon

#monsterdon So, I'm suggesting Manos: Hands Of Fate. It does have monsters - an evil guy with powers and a satyr, though you wouldn't necessarily know he's a satyr. It's also an amazingly terrible movie. Incredibly bad. You haven't seen anything this bad. And kind of cursed.

going to the moon requires absolutely no training or expertise of any kind and could be done by a single person but it's just inconvenient #monsterdon

I need to get some "Astro" switches for my desk.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon #DoubleFeature

#MissileToTheMoon trivia: "The giant spider prop was originally built for Tarantula (1955)."

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0048696 looks pretty good for a later #monsterdon @Taweret ?

Everything leads back to spiders, as it should.

A model of the actual rocket on his desk gives some von Braun vibes.

#monsterdon

i am having a really hard time thinking about where i would land on this because on the one hand you absolutely shouldnt trust the guy who threatens to take you to the moon at gunpoint in his homemade rocket but also how often are you going to get to go to the moon on a handmade pirate rocket #Monsterdon

"If you don't do what I say, I'll shoot you with this gun!"

*immediately puts gun away and turns his back*

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

If the strange man offering to take you "to the moon" tells you to go undress, it might not be bitcoin

Or, it could still be

#monsterdon

I was so naive, back then, an hour ago.

But how was I supposed to know the movie would turn stupid 15 minutes in?

#monsterdon

"Up where?" "7-up! You're drinking it!"

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

If a strange man offers to take you "to the moon" he just might be trying to sell you bitcoin

#monsterdon

Guessing that we won't make it to the Moon by the 20 minute mark, here.

I appreciate the setup, but there *is* such a thing as overdoing it.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

I resent the lack of evil lesbian subtext in this knockoff

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

@Newpa_Hasai Ooh that sounds interesting (though not during the movie, I would have to turn my brain on first)

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@diazona Unironically, there's a discussion to be had about how there was an expectation that space ships would be roomier than they actually are.

#monsterdon

holy shit is this about to be a nonconsensual missile to the moon #monsterdon

A rocket to the moon. Just standing in a field of grass. You just need to climb up a small ladder.

#Monsterdon
#CatWomenOfTheMoon
#MissileToTheMoon
#DoubleFeature

That's the face of a man who just found himself some test subjects, I think.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

I'm relieved that this is not a faithful remake. The original deserves no faith.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

@jonny Still more professional than the bozos from the first one

#monsterdon

The _airlock_ is made of _pegboard_.

I do not think they understand what _airlocks_ are for

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

please please please let the protagonists be these two bozos accidentally launching the rocket to the moon #monsterdon

@SnoopJ Yay, tubi, I guess

#monsterdon

#monsterdon ROUND TWO! Missile To the Moon!

That's a nice model(?)

#monsterdon

DIRK

DIRK ... HARDSHANK?

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

This is a shocking amount of terrestrial setup, considering how abruptly the first movie began.

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon

so are we getting a for-profit space travel lobbying subplot here or what is this #monsterdon

ngl, like this light fixture

ngl, hilarious that one of the bulbs is burned out

ngl, hilarious that none of these people are the brightest bulbs in the movie

#monsterdon #MissleToTheMoon

...gas generator? Are those actual (rough) diagrams of liquid fuel rocket engiens?

#monsterdon

@diazona @hollie @moira @ricci

I'm game. Christmas time is coming. Or "Life Day" or whatever probably...?

#Monsterdon

Mooncops! (?)

#Monsterdon #MissileToTheMoon #DoubleFeature

@YsengrinWolf

Wait! What?!! They’re all dead and Helen’s alive?

Well, I’m new to Tubi and that gave me the opportunity to figure out the rewind and replay.

Thanks all for helping me relive the wonder of the Bellingham WA KVOS 4:00 pm ‘Big Show’ of my childhood. Or, ‘What is that monster doing?’

#Monsterdon #KVOS

Immediately the title sequence is not disappointing, we have learned a thing or two about cultivating a sense of wonder and terror of space instead of shitting us into the corrugated steel spaceship #monsterdon
