... and we're going to visiting the oddly Grecian-Roman ruins of Lumeria while wandering about the sea floor.

Oh, darn, the volcano is erupting ahead of schedule.

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

Oh no, we're too late! Only now do we realize the folly of spending a whole day sightseeing in the ruins of Atlantis. #monsterdon

@Taweret they gotta ride bees to new zealand (prior art: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pM0yccsZWo )

#monsterdon

Herbert really is just a simple minded lad. #Monsterdon

@faoluin Yeah 'cause every other ancient culture had the sense to *not* drop their cities into the ocean

#Monsterdon

So they get scuba shells but still no fresh clothes? Movie, you just like hairy chests, don't you?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon i feel like the top of the vessel might not be airtight

@jonny there is a lot of music so not much I reckon #Monsterdon

calling it "granite house" was such a huge miss on naming potential but i'll give them credit for how making it look like nostrils for no reason made it clear when it was being blown up
#monsterdon

"Do you only know vampire music Captain Nemo?"

#monsterdon

THE HORN SECTION DEMANDS SACRIFICE!

#monsterdon

lets stand here instead of doing literally anything

#monsterdon

Classic Greek architecture at the bottom of the Pacific. Of course.

#Monsterdon

"Is it starting now!?"

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK GENIUS #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

R'lyeh?

man Tubi sure is doing a lot more ads than usual tonight

#monsterdon

It's shaking like the bridge of the enterprise

#monsterdon

Middle of the Pacific and we have Greek temples and Egyptian statuary. This is reminding me of the Runestone in that Gamera movie. #monsterdon

@ramsey @moira If only we got to see giant lemurs #monsterdon

Ooh that volcano looks a lot better than my science project! 🌋

"Throw yourself randomly around on the beach! Like in TNG!" - The Director

#monsterdon
#mysteriousisland

the fact that the electric gun floats seems like it could be pretty annoying

#Monsterdon

@ranjit @Taweret even bioluminescent fleas do it!
(but not really, that's a different chemical process)

#monsterdon

KABLOOIE

#Monsterdon

Finally building a raft instead of a boat

#monsterdon

I'm just saying, if you bought me the ticket for this movie, you'd be the one being like, "Dude, we can just GO" and I'd be like, "No, fuck it, I'm staying out of spite at this point. I want to see how the volcano blows up."

#Monsterdon

Snail Shell backpack and gear?
#Halloween is coming
#monsterdon

No no no y'all need to get out of there this is how you wake Cthulhu

#monsterdon

@jonny No one knows nor seems to care.
#Monsterdon

Gosh, will this movie get anywhere?
#Monsterdon

I am really digging the sea shell outfits and the underwater ray gun. 😂 More of this please.
#Monsterdon

Now it's a science fair volcano!

#monsterdon
#mysteriousisland

Who did anyone have lost civilization under the Pacific with Greco-Roman themes on their #bingocard

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland #Cthulhu

The volcano was the real monster all along. #monsterdon

They’re just four lost souls walking through a fishbowl… #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Oh the fuck you have energy weapons! We don't have energy weapons! We could open this bag of cheese if we did! Think of the humanity! Surounded by impossible to open cheese bags!

This city had been destroyed by a volcano, and there was no lava flow or ash anywhere on any of these buildings. #monsterdon

"...look upon my works, ye shell people, and despair!"

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

I like imagining how many lost at sea island weeks went by during each of these cutscenes where they are learning all the island ways

#monsterdon

@cheribaker Those backpacks would have sold like crazy during back to school season, you know #monsterdon

@moira I feel seen! :ablobcatgooglymlemjumping: #Monsterdon

"Abby, you put the Valley Girl in the basket or you get the hosers again!"

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland2012

#Monsterdon poor guy thinks not having enough food grown causes war, not inequality of distribution

@StephenTallentyre A group of people watch a selected monster movie at the same time and toot about it! #Monsterdon

Hey

What kind of movie is this

#Monsterdon

PACIFIC ISLAND GREEK RUINS WHY

#monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

what the fuck is going on #monsterdon

They killed the chocobo. Shoulda tamed it. #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

Ahhhh ... we're going to talk raising the pirate ship to death.

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

I want a snail backpack. And a goofy shell hat. Haha. So stupid and fun. #Monsterdon

I'm telling you #shellfashion is going to be the next hot thing. forget pockets. 🐚 :hermitcrab:

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

An Electric gun you say..... underwater?

Science!

#Monsterdon

I would so wear a giant seashell shaped backpack. 10/10
#Monsterdon

(SPEAKING IN LOCAL LANGUAGE)

#monsterdon

@jonny Nemo's against violence, so he blows up ALL the violent ships (except his own). #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland1961

Narration montage!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon They are lubing the tip, for easy insertion!

So much chest hair in this movie.
#Monsterdon

Hey, he's got a deadly negative scratch gun! #Monsterdon

This sounds like something the Professor from Gilligan's Island would come up with. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon The reporter just wants to live in the Delicious in Dungeon universe.

I didn't sign up for a random episode of How It's Made, movie #monsterdon

Nemo: "This bottle, like a ship, floats because air displaces the water"

bottle: *sinks*

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Love the submarine, love the lasers, love the shell scubas love everything

#monsterdon an electric gun underwater?!

Shoots showers of sparks.

#monsterdon
#mysteriousisland

Also I can't help but sneer at Nemo's philosophy, which can best be described as Fucking For Abstinence. #Monsterdon

Nemo gives the most capitalist speech ever.
"There's a giant volcano about to erupt. Do we really have time to talk?"
"No, but I'd like to anyway" (he really said that)
"Then I will supply the machinery and you shall provide the labor."

#monsterdon

"...is that a barnacle in your pocket, or you just happy to see me?"

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

#Monsterdon 🏝️ 🐝 🦀 🦪 🐦 😱

That was stock footage volcano not matte painting volcano

Props to the prop makers. Giant seashell dive suits!

#Monsterdon

GIANT UNDERWATER LASERS

#monsterdon
#mysteriousisland

#monsterdon Problem is, no bamboo, second problem, no glue. Third problem, no tensile strength in said bamboo. Damn grass…

This motherfucker walks on the ocean floor with a shell on his head, so I believe in his Rick Sanchez version of science here.

#Monsterdon

OMG AN IGUANA HOW SCARY #monsterdon

"goood, goood... now if the he can only find some sulphur... and some coal."

#monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

Nemo's drafting skills are a bit ... rough.

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

@Taweret are you saying you don't want the full explanation of raising a ship not exciting like giant chickens?

#Monsterdon

@Crazypedia was just thinking the same thing

I think Nemo and Wonka studied at the same Uni

#monsterdon

Oh good, rubber. That'll come in handy #monsterdon

Lady Mary's still white dress is the real hero of this film. #monsterdon

I wonder what air pressure a pipe constructed from bamboo could actually hold

#Monsterdon

More new physics! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🏝️ 🐝 🦀 🦪 🐦 😱

We are all Captain Nemo I guess

#monsterdon WTF is this Truth Social????

#Monsterdon

He's got a lot of ping-pong balls….

Nemo: Now, you're all intensely stupid, so I'm gonna explain the concept of a breached hull. #Monsterdon

nemo low-key neutron bombed the pirate ship

#monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

#Monsterdon GIANT BIRD RIDING

Nemo took over hosting Beakman's World. Sadly he was canceled after only a few episodes.
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

Why not just use ping pong balls like Scrooge McDuck?

#monsterdon

@srol To say nothing of a pipe organ! (You ever heard it when the condensate builds up in one of those & the pipes get stuck in an "on" position? Sounds like a screaming banshee for as long as it takes the moisture to evaporate...)

#monsterdon

I wonder if #CaptainNemo and #WillyWonka studied together at some point. probably.

#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland

So Nemo planted a bomb on the pirate ship, but did it surgically enough to sink it and drown all aboard, but keep the ship mostly intact and seaworthy? What in the Mary Sue nonsense is this? #monsterdon

Science.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Better the Ancap you know

Thanks Mr. Wizard. Let's get this movie rebooted, please #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🏝️ 🐝 🦀 🦪 🐦 😱

So I guess they've been on this island for months huh

I think that flask sank a bit more slowly than the actor expected it would. At least it sounded like vamping to me...
