In old horror movies people are always going to theaters to see scientific discoveries unveiled. Probably because TV wasn't very good back then so there wasn't much else to do. #monsterdon
Natto here you come!
#monsterdon ahhhh AHHHHHHHπΆ
MothRAAAAAA, is a many-splendored thing πΆ
That dastardly Nelson has mounted his own expedition!
You can tell they're evil by their laugh.
Oh, that and the shooting unarmed natives.
they rebuilt these ceiling fixtures on spec for the show, you know, very expensive retrofit
The little flying carriage IS a pretty baller entrance. #Monsterdon #Mothra
"suck on this, Disney, we'll show you some anamatronics"
The miracle... of fishing wire! #Monsterdon
I suppose this movie is not efficient enough to kill that prick Nelson first?
βEveryone of us felt it was best to leave them right where they wereβ π #Monsterdon
hey! there's our girl!
The intimidation factor of a bunch of people walking toward you and making noise is significant, but it's not that relevant when your opponents are willing and able to murder you.
#Monsterdon #Mothra
Am I seeing Japaense blackface? #Monsterdon
#monsterdon you'd think in these millions of acres of dense jungle the tiny fairies could avoid getting kidnapped by the guy they recognize from trying to kidnap them once already
Yeah y'all are in for a bad time if you use a blood sacrifice to summon mothra
#Monsterdon #Mothra
Nelson's accent really is more Dracula than Japan. #Monsterdon
oh, you done goofed now. Mothra is about to lay some justice down on your asses
Wow do they ever SUCK at first contact #Monsterdon
this battle sounds like popcorn and hammond organs
#Monsterdon
Yeah, silence as a defense was a great idea, except for THE LEADER OF THE EXPEDITION BEING A HUGE CROOK >_>
These films are always like, "Oh, the reporter shouldn't say anything, it'd be wrong" and it *always* fucks things up. #Monsterdon
I didn't think that Polynesian languages *had* writing systems until the Latin alphabet was adapted for the purpose?
if that was the atomic age what age is this? #monsterdon
With a crowd like that, they can't be that secret. #monsterdon
lol it looks like the natives are making gunshot noises with their rocks
yeah well there's a lot of secret fairies in hollywood
Ope. Now you done did it. Massacre of a heretofore unknown native tribe is sure to piss off the local island-gigantism patron animal. #Monsterdon #Mothradon #Mothra1962
Oh and just straight up colonial style murder
#Monsterdon #Mothra
It may be totally unclear how they are all understanding each other but thankfully "evil laugh" is the universal language
Fairies find that alarm irresistible. #Monsterdon
I hope the inhabitants stick you to a comically large flypaper, sir.
Mininappers! Thugs! Brutes!
#Monsterdon #Mothra
#monsterdon I found a chart, he was lonely, and apparently it's a map of the London Underground. Smells somewhat odd, and boy howdy it glows under a black-light. That's differentβ¦
OH
THIS IS A SACRIFICE
AT THE ALTAR OF MOTHRA
that makes way more sense as an unlock mechanic
It's either a giant moth egg or a really really big Yoshi. #Monsterdon #Mothra
WILL SOMEONE PICK UP THAT DAMN PHONE IN TEH JUNGLE! IT KEEPS RINGING!
#Monsterdon #Mothra
i could nap to that alarm sound
new asmr unlocked
#Monsterdon
@SnoopJ @SRLevine if youβre talking about Jerry Ito according to the film historian commentary Ishiro Honda was frustrated with him on Mothra because all his Japanese lines had to be learned and spoken phonetically #monsterdon
@davesdogmaggie That's what I heard but my mind won't allow me to believe it #Monsterdon #Mothra πͺ°π₯
Egg #monsterdon
e g g
#monsterdon
Wait! This is just how we say "Thank You", we never cared for the fairies! #Monsterdon
well that was a lot of murder
#monsterdon
DUN Dun dun, DUN DUN Dun dun!
@kshernandez thatβs what I heard too.
Look, gang, you are not going to sneak up on anyone if you walk up banging rocks.
@bstacey Do they have a line item in grants for ransom insurance?
A rubbing? That was very clearly done in ink with a brush! I am offended.
#Monsterdon #Mothra
Slowly walking while banging rocks is not the best defense strategy it seems
#monsterdon
The blackface in Mothra films never really improves, huh :/ #Monsterdon
For a reporter, you don't notice much, do you? #Monsterdon
Very realistic death scenes.
HE SAID IT, HE SAID THE THING
"There's something about that island"
You don't say... #Monsterdon
No ideas? Really? Could it be related to "moth" or "-ra"? #Monsterdon #Mothradon #Mothra1962
βI just didnβt want Neilson to knowβ #Monsterdon
@CactuarJoe any moment now... I only worked half a day. #Monsterdon #Mothra πͺ°π₯
βI think heβs an international dealer in artifacts.β
It sounds more like heβs a human trafficker.
@strangefour Yes although after what we saw last week I think we should be wary of direct American remakes of anything
What was unlucky? Nothing happened to them so far.
Nelson is literally just Gargamel. #Monsterdon
@socketwench@masto.hackers.town yes plz π₯ π’π« π₯ π¦ #Monsterdon #Mothra
So he's Indiana Jones⦠or Laura Croft? #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon
I knew there'd be beats on that island.

Clark Nelson was born from the War, that's why he has no past before it, #Monsterdon
AND WE HAVE A TITLE DROP! #Monsterdon
When curiosity shows up on my timeline I instantly go from angry to furious
#monsterdon Island natives, brought to you by the Shinola corporation.
Can we skip to the part where the giant fuzzy girl destroys not-America?
I donβt recall anyone whipping out a Geiger counterβ¦
Listen to the goofy reporter leave the place alone it's not worth the trouble #Monsterdon
@davesdogmaggie That's what I wanna know... #Monsterdon #Mothra πͺ°π₯
This press guy upset about 3 million angry readers? He hasn't happened upon the grand solution of JUST MAKING SHIT UP. #Monsterdon
"Get Fukudama for me"
Did you just tell me to get fucked, Bob? #Monsterdon
"Oh, a crooked art dealer who steals from tombs, like Indiana Jones?"
Wait. Is this [insert color]face?
A tribe of what now?
"Wouldn't it be better just to leave this island alone?" "Shut up, egghead"
Are we just going to not talk about the whole pointing guns at each other thing or #Monsterdon #Mothradon
You didn't send a single story from the primitive island, or from the ship where you're banned from the ship-to-shore! #Monsterdon #Mothradon #Mothra1962
Wow, something almost happened! #Monsterdon
Okay, that is not how you capture Faeries. You give them honey, milk, and fresh baked bread.
Sheesh. Humans. Always needing Owlbeas to tell them how it's done. π€ #Monsterdon
@apLundell they got Titanic band energy. Play no matter what. #Monsterdon #Mothra πͺ°π₯
Bad guy kinda reminds me of Chris Kattan
This has potential to turn into The Green Inferno, but it won't. #Monsterdon
BOAT'S OVER, FOLKS
Well, that was a fun movie!
#monsterdon
Ok it's about time I started drinking about this movie π»π₯
#Monsterdon #Mothra
tiny takehome wimmin, gimme!
The guy who just kidnapped the twins is related to P. T. Barnum, Iβm pretty sure
Thereβs always a trafficker in the bunch.
They seem to be the forgiving sort. #Monsterdon
I missed the part where any of the humans know how to speak the fairies' language
MEANWHILE, THE FAIRIES: *teehee*
Oh they've got horses! #Monsterdon
Did one of the guys randomly speak english and say "I understand"? Did I miss something about them?
