Ye found me lucky charms!
#Monsterdon we equipped the matte painting with an elevator, our proudest achievement
I suppose it's indicative of how I knew Star Wars much earlier than I knew anything about the Civil War that I keep thinking the captain in this flick is wearing Han Solo pants.
Meanwhile in a nearby temperate pine forest. #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
THIS IS JUST LIBERAL PROPAGANDA #monsterdon #mysteriousisland1961
this was probably cooler back in 1960 when men showing off their hard work and ingenuity was like the peak of culture #monsterdon
#monsterdon
capn?
capn?
"ah...yes the iguana was giant too"
The sky buckets used to go right through here
"We attempted to equip the place with as many modern conveniences as we knew how..."
Wall to wall deep pile carpeting! High speed internet and chintz curtains! #Monsterdon
Feminine touches. Like a menstruation calendar on the wall and nagging them about every chore, amirite boys? boys? where did everyone go?
Ahh, narration.
"The women added a few welcome touches to the cave that made it a home, while we tended to the other work."
All right, all right. What happened with Neb and the women during all this? #monsterdon
I'm pretty sure that spending four days at that altitude is not conducive to basic survival, between the hypoxia and the extreme dehydration. #monsterdon
#monsterdon ok the elevator is giving real Gilligan's Island vibes
Oh they found the rum :rum:
"And finally disgusted with his beastiality." wait what? Movie you missed a galnguage shift.
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
#Monsterdon We are running like 26 minutes late and wow it took a long time to get to the island with a lot of improbable parts. But I think I'm most annoyed that these five men seem to think you need matches to start a fire and know no other way.
Well, the cave would be safe from giant crabs anyway #monsterdon
Egads! More expository voiceover! #monsterdon
#Monsterdon I havenβt seen an animal that terrifying since the time I was offered the chance to save hundreds on car insurance.
it seems like it would be easier to build a raft than a working elevator but what do i know
The real #monsterdon is man and his stalagmite-staining hands
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
really looking forward to the iguana and giant octopus but it'll be a while
Perfect shelter
Perfect safety
Just-okay stalagmites
The cave will have running water! By which we mean the piss will run out the cliff nostrils.
the best place to build a boat is 60 feet up a cliff
oh PLEASE with the time elapsed narration for the love of god won't SOMETHING HAPPEN #monsterdon
A perfect place to build a boat? Upside a cliff face?!
... you're going to build a boat in a cave halfway up a cliff?? #monsterdon
Don't punch that wall too hard, Captain, it's papier mache #Monsterdon
The cliff wall cave you have to climb 30 feet to enter is the best place to build your new boat. For real. He said that.
I knew this was a prequel to Gilligan's Island
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
We're just getting to the caves dangit
We will live here, men. We will flourish, and we WILL BUILD THAT BOAT.
YUSS ACTUAL MONSTERS FINALLY GIANT OCTOPUS MAJOR TENTACULAR ACTION π
at this point, i'd like to start my own boat building operations, if only so i could sail off this picture. #monsterdon
"...wait, you want to build the boat in the cave?"
"Of course"
"But ..."
TITLE DROP!
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
like there's no point to this scene. its like they're adlibbing
This is a placeholder that I will refer back to in the event that no giant spiders show up to show I found it very strange there aren't giant spiders right now. #monsterdon
#monsterdon TItular reference! From the inside. How deliciously lazy!
No giant cave spider, sad #monsterdon
They're going to build a boat in the cave that they had to climb 50ft to reach?
That is a perfectly sized bottle of rum for singing pirate shanties
we're all missing that he's found a giant hershey's kiss
1862, and the current year is... 1865?
i don't know what these characters want. other than to meander around and do things just because
hold on, bestiality???? WHAT IS HAPPENING #monsterdon #mysteriousisland1961
we better get a cryptid of some kind and not just be giant normal animals the whole time, that would have been historically accurate anyway since that's what they thought was out there, "weird stuff" #monsterdon
His beastiality? did they skip that in the diary reading? I didn't hear any animal fucking.
Title drop! #Monsterdon
i think what this movie needs is a volleyball. #monsterdon
A skeleton hung up to scare someone to death? I fear that Vincent Price is nearby.
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
@ramsey The composer is the G.O.A.T. #monsterdon
TITLE DROP *airhorn sounds*
He said the name of the movie!
I love when they do that!
insane with hunger for the human
7.3/10 for the Skeleton Fall
Title mention!
@apLundell @Louisa truly more terrifying then the giant crab!!
Ah-ha-ha, the skeleton has the pop-top anatomical skullcap.
This movie should be a double feature with Bad Lieutenant Port of Call New Orleans for scenes of each protagonist being mean to iguana #monsterdon
Iguana jumpscare!
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
convenient the skeleton was a journalist #monsterdon
it would help if there was a main character and we knew what they wanted
Wait, he was wearing a necklace?
#monsterdon
@Taweret Maybe some more women will wash up with one #monsterdon
The orchestra is the best character in this film. #Monsterdon
@Louisa he was much more scared by the lizard than the rotting dangling skeleton
Storytime! #Monsterdon
Immediately looted the skeleton. This is survival crafting game movie #MinecraftMovie
Egads! Inanimate objects! #monsterdon
okay, yer standard Mysterious Journal. maybe we'll get some plot now? #monsterdon
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
the tubi stream for the dude is even more ad-loaded than mine usually is we're losing valuable giant animal attack time over here
#monsterdon Oh noes! A pet iguana!!!
That better be a copy of "Where The Wild Things Are"
honestly think that the iguana was supposed to be a giant normal cave lizard
Motherfuckers just be letting food escape all over the place. #Monsterdon
Yes, pick the jewelry out of the skeletons ass bones!
@bk1e "why did it have to be spiders?!" #wrongMovie #Monsterdon
Well, somebody was on this issland before them. Plus, jump-scare iguana.
*yawn* wakes up from nap
well time to get cut 45 minutes into the #Monsterdon film
Egads! A normal-sized animal! #monsterdon
PERCEPTO doesn't work nearly as well without the actual skeleton model
Dude whose first brilliant idea was climbing to the rim of the active volcano and ends up fighting a gigantic crab, sees a super creepy cave covered in spiderwebs and doesn't think Shelob?"
Iguana!
#Monsterdon
@Taweret Probably cave treasure. Pieces of eight and doubloons!
Jerk. That was lizard friend's home.
GEX NO! #monsterdon
my dudes i am yawning #monsterdon

See the stone brook where they get some water?
Same location used for The 7th Voyage of Sinbad (1958). Only in that movie, red wine runs through it.
A miniature giant iguana! #monsterdon
#monsterdon CHUG CHUG CHUG
I wish I was in Tijuana. #Monsterdon
Get the fuck outta here, regular sized iguana! I have no time for you!
WHOA SCARY IGUANA
OH NO A NORMAL-SIZED IGUANA!!!
