#monsterdon ah geez a volcano? i gotta keep this to myself, i can't let any of the guys take my lava
women. oh good. now we have someone to scream every time they see anything
Okay there's going to need to be a really good explanation for why she shows up on the island
The remains of the SS Bechdel #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
Did they bring enough hot girls for everyone?
Ladies :O
OH HEY LOOK A BLONDE CHICK
WHO WOULDA THUNK
Cue Young Rookie Union Soldier singing SUMMER DAYS any second now.
#monsterdon Very nice Neb, you're an idiot, but a useful one.
What happened to Neb's shirt?
#Monsterdon
oh lord. lady, you should have just kept floating. #monsterdon
They have learned nothing. Nothing. Expect a 50 ton goat to appear. #Monsterdon
Oh shit, hot girl washes up on the beach.
Handy boat full of women for the men there
"I think the guy face down in the Sea not moving may be dead"
@moira It is, ... waaait for it... of the utmost importance, if you will. --dad #Monsterdon
@apLundell need goats to milk to make butter for the crab
is this the prequel to LOST or Gilligan's Island I can't tell #monsterdon #mysteriousisland1961
@sean honestly ours are mostly ash
we don't really get surface lava in cascadia
Geez, y'all just had several thousand pounds of crab boil, and you're already hungry again?
#monsterdon
Mr it, mr. Something else. Looks like a star trek episode
#monsterdon
You just ate a 4000 pound crab. Leave those goats alone!
#Monsterdon
Wacky means of conveyance? β
Mysterious destination? β
Giant animals? β
A volcano? β
A couple of ladies thrown into the mix? β
We must be watching a Jules Verne story turned into a movie.
Even though the rock are obviously millions of years old
#monsterdon
#Monsterdon It would have been a lot more fun if those were screaming goats.
@Taweret you heard him, they're giant mice
#monsterdon He's also handy with CBT and a ball-peen hammer. Better be careful how comely that goat is gonna turn out. Wearing a short skirtβ¦ giving bedroom eyesβ¦
They're catching goats so they can make goat butter, so they can make clarified butter to go with the crab.
Introducing the sleeping star of the show π
They are climbing this volcano because Cap said, "It's necessary for our survival to see where we are."
This is all about "intelligence gathering."
Catch some goats? Are they out of crab meat already? #monsterdon
Spilitt is really a character
this really gets my goat #monsterdon
"energy of youth" based on what I know about actors back then, the oldest actor is 31 #Monsterdon
Spillett should tell the guys he used to be a hangman #monsterdon
Mice??? #monsterdon #mysteriousisland1961
@moira @CactuarJoe ohh yeah now that you mention it I think I heard that
#monsterdon How'd they get so big? I suspect.... *The Macguffin!* Dunt dunt duuuum!
hey, there's breakfast lunch and dinner for tomorrow! this island is Very Lucky. #monsterdon
@CactuarJoe I'm being told "because it was there" #monsterdon
Goatbusters!
#monsterdon Like the younger generations say, this movie is the Goat
Giant mice with horns! #Monsterdon
That accent really is driving me mad. #monsterdon
@berniethewordsmith Did it start with hot springs?
(sorry I'm not participating tonight peeps, this just popped up when I happened to check my computer and I couldn't resists)
Mr. Spillit will now spill his guts
Why? Why do they need to go all the way to the top? And why now? And why at such risk? #monsterdon
@diazona you'll notice a lot of this island was DESIGNED mister Zaslavsky #monsterdon
they hired ray harryhausen to puppeteer the corpse of a crab
i for shoot pointed at the screen and screeched to my husband "LOOK AT THAT CRAB!!!!!!!"
somehow this civilian guy is more annoying than the confederate lol
@diazona @CactuarJoe the idea in real life was to see if they could spot any other land, see where they are
Under the Laws of Story that I didn't make up, that volcano WILL go off by Act III.
why are they trying to go where they're trying to go?
"Oh for the energy of youth." Preach it brother. #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
I guess if we're gonna eat the mountain, we should start with the top. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon mmmm, crab boil
Convenient geyser for crab boil. And, they kept the harmonica.
I think cigarettes and coffee are a lost cause, though.
Let's go up to the semi-active volcano, which is on the mantle, I might remind you, in Act I.
@amyfou Just a guy working for scale #monsterdon
So is there a *reason* they're climbing the mountain, or...? #Monsterdon
The crab mustβve weighed about 4000 pounds and theyβre just walking away? #Monsterdon
@Taweret yeah I thought we were going to see a token sacrifice there
@flowerpot Needs more cowbell. #monsterdon
they're having a really hard time getting to the paramount logo but i think they'll get there
"We want to reach that crater before nightfall."
That volcano must be a lot smaller than it looks from here, captain.
#Monsterdon Now to make historyβs largest Rangoon!
Boiled crab!! Yeah!!
Happy Harmonica Crab Dance.
#Monsterdon
Reminded me of ghost crabs going after baby turtles. #Monsterdon
Iβd like to congratulate the film makers of Mysterious Island (1961) for not killing off the only black actor in the first 30mins
@RobynGoodfellow heh someone else made that pun and I didn't want to overdo it, but yeah
@Taweret He was nearly pinched in two and now he's dancing about #monsterdon
@Taweret Legit shocked, honestly #Monsterdon
Yeah that's β Battle Music
Oh, crap, now they're all drunk on crab.
only now are they asking about the big crab
Okay, some skilled harmonica work there. And acrobatics.
#monsterdon break the claws! i need to make the hammer from this guy
#monsterdon And that's how, on Julie and Julia, she learned how to properly dispatch Giant Crab.
βNow, thatβs what I call a crawfish boil!β β the Confederate soldier maybe #Monsterdon
hey, a crab boil. Anyone got some old bay? @TrishEM #monsterdon
No garlic butter too bad #Monsterdon
@diazona Not so much angry as.... crabby. #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
LOL right into the geyser I guess they've got a crab boil
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
...It's a musical? #Monsterdon
aaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA #monsterdon #mysteriousisland1961
"try and tip it over the edge"
okay but
weren't you LITERALLY just hunting for food
Edit: well okay, they did it eat. Good for you, movie.
So, like 10 minutes/lb?
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
That lead crab actor is VERY compelling as a giant bloodthirsty Monster Crab he should have gotten an oscar not cooked for Harryhousen's dinner!
Mmmmm that's good eatin'.
The original crabby pattie.
convenient that there was a bunch of boiling water right there. #monsterdon
yum
Now I'm offended by this film, 30 minutes in
Sure was nice with that crab to help him flip it on its back :crabmadlad:
Well color me wrong. #Monsterdon
Wait, are they trying to tow cable the giant crab like an AT-AT? #monsterdon
