I'm telling you #shellfashion is going to be the next hot thing. forget pockets. π :hermitcrab:
I have all sorts of questions about materials strength and seal quality, but refloating ships being described as exotic and high tech feels oddly quaint in a movie two decades after Pearl Harbor.
I would so wear a giant seashell shaped backpack. 10/10
#Monsterdon
(SPEAKING IN LOCAL LANGUAGE)
@jonny Nemo's against violence, so he blows up ALL the violent ships (except his own). #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland1961
Narration montage!
#monsterdon They are lubing the tip, for easy insertion!
Hey, he's got a deadly negative scratch gun! #Monsterdon
So much chest hair in this movie.
#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
#monsterdon Love the submarine, love the lasers, love the shell scubas love everything
#monsterdon an electric gun underwater?!
Shoots showers of sparks.
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."
"...is that a barnacle in your pocket, or you just happy to see me?"
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
That was stock footage volcano not matte painting volcano
Props to the prop makers. Giant seashell dive suits!
"Oh I just invented some kind of ray gun as well, I'm so clever"
Elon thinks he's this guy, doesn't he?
GIANT UNDERWATER LASERS
#monsterdon Problem is, no bamboo, second problem, no glue. Third problem, no tensile strength in said bamboo. Damn grassβ¦
This motherfucker walks on the ocean floor with a shell on his head, so I believe in his Rick Sanchez version of science here.
OMG AN IGUANA HOW SCARY #monsterdon
"goood, goood... now if the he can only find some sulphur... and some coal."
Nemo's drafting skills are a bit ... rough.
@Taweret are you saying you don't want the full explanation of raising a ship not exciting like giant chickens?
@Crazypedia was just thinking the same thing
I think Nemo and Wonka studied at the same Uni
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
More new physics! #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
We are all Captain Nemo I guess
#monsterdon WTF is this Truth Social????
He's got a lot of ping-pong ballsβ¦.
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 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?
I wonder if #CaptainNemo and #WillyWonka studied together at some point. probably.
@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...)
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 Better the Ancap you know
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
So I guess they've been on this island for months huh
Thanks Mr. Wizard. Let's get this movie rebooted, please #monsterdon
I think that flask sank a bit more slowly than the actor expected it would. At least it sounded like vamping to me...
lol, MORE deforestation....
#monsterdon Dance with the devil in the pale moonlight. Shit. Someone brought The Joker!
@Taweret You impatient American audiences!!
is this guy trying to explain why ships sink? i ... cap'n i think we understand this concept. #monsterdon
Lost would've had like three plot twists over the course of this conversation and like ten quotable lines
just saying
Finding Captain Nemo
(Actually, it wasn't that hard, it's getting him to shut up that's the problem.)
#monsterdon
Are you ready to dance with the devil,
In the shallow shipwreck sea?
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
Captain Nemo's shell napsack is also π₯
Hey, Nemo invented Wonka-power! #Monsterdon
Can someone please explain to me what the Monsterdon tag is about?
#mysteriousisland An inexhaustible food supply if you include dozens of normal sized goats.
Nemo gets his equipment from the same place that Willy Wonka does.
"...show me the pumps"
<displays a room full of shoes>
#Monsterdon "Contact with my own species has always left me disappointed."
He's making everlasting gobstoppers! #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
@Taweret i would rather they fucked off and i got to just watch the bees be cute
You must be of adequate rank or social standing to be fully clothed sorry I don't make the rules #Monsterdon
Dance with the devil what brung ya, I guess.
the world will quake before the might of my army of giana canadian geese
The orchestra's on break for this long, long scene #monsterdon
every conversation is so rambly
Who else is cheering for Nemo? π
Left to his own devices Nemo still dislikes humanity but he's turned into a reverse Thanos. Trying to make enough resources to feed a hungry world in need.
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
#monsterdon All friend groups have a member that dresses like someone in that scene
The Nautilus looks pretty ok. Why can't it go to sea? #monsterdon
@ramsey Dr. Moreau is on the next island over.
#monsterdon Captain Nemo is the proto-Gordon Gecko. Greed is good! Sheep the size of cattle! You know! Slightly bigger!
@amyfou How did they know?! deep in the future, how did they know?! #Monsterdon
Nemo is going to be so very disappointed about how the Haber-Bosch process will be used.
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
Nemo's shell helmet is π
@Louisa I like this power move of putting on his finest smoking jacket
@allanb *shock*
Oh, so Captain Nemo made the giant monsters. So he can make giant cows and giant hamburgers and such.
@otheorange_tag @JoeWynne @apLundell Later he becomes Inspector Clouseau's boss and Van Helsing, so I guess? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon That Last Bottle is bigger on the inside.
@Louisa i feel bad just looking at them. So much sand in the upholstery!
Hey Nemo took the time to change clothes and didn't offer these guys a few coats?
Wait, Nemo is responsible for making animals huge? This Island is much less Mysterious than we thought. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon That face. The lady is clearly pissed they are the only ones doing the goat milking and "domestic" labor.
So, Nemoβs become Dr. Moreau? #Monsterdon
This is a long one compared to a lot of the other movies from this era we've seen. And it really REALLY didn't need to be. #monsterdon
Wait, the pirates are the monsters are the zombies are the Nautilus crew?!? Who saw that coming?
nemo: "make my monsters grow!" #monsterdon
Yes, but that "food" can eat us. #monsterdon
#monsterdon Geez, Nemo and Mary, get a cave. :blobcatrollingeyes:
"My war will set all men free" -- this is I think more or less the actual phrasing from that one song?
@paco Like he's consciously trying to make them feel underdressed.
SHEEP ARE CATTLE, YOU BUFFOON.
