Excuse me, the women can get their own selves on board #monsterdon
β¦did John Williams take the Hedwig's Theme hook from MYSTERIOUS ISLAND?

Also got to applaud Nemo for having an aquarium inside his submarine
no need to worry about patching the hull, that airbag will never fail
@akamran He understands what really matters (and it's being dapper).
Big bird: the early years #monsterdon
That Willy Wonka machine on the Nautilis is giving me fits. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon nooooo not the reformed confederate, we were definitely going to forgive him he wasn't backup food
@randy_s Bee flat, A minor, C minor, OMFG it's small church music rescoring! #Monsterdon
THRILL at the amazing PNEUMATICS SCENE! #monsterdon
That air pump really REALLY needs the Willy Wonka sound effects. #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
@berniethewordsmith If you gotta ask... #monsterdon
#monsterdon The Captain was unprepared for the increase in prices of both Netflix and Hulu! He was completely overwhelmed!
Yeah I definitely still see a wonka-esque aesthetic to Nemo's fancy engine there :wonkaBar:
"Excellent! At this rate of flow, we should be able to float the ship in four, maybe four and a half months."
ok it's almost over lol
#monsterdon giant nautilus attack! On Nautilus crew?
We're trying to figure out Nemo's exit criteria here.
The Naitulus appears! And it only took one organ chord for the lady to get spooked. #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
After all that, you're going to end up with a rickety raft you could have built in Act I and Nemo's submarine that tooooootally can never go to sea again, wink wink.
#monsterdon Mega fauna gotta catch em all
Never mind the broken velveteen submarine those underwater MASERS are what I'M talking about #Monsterdon
@davesdogmaggie Lawyers have time machi #ceasesToExist #Monsterdon
When seconds count, the police are minutes away.
@trixter Gotta say, an Electric type would go through this region like a fireball through paper. #Monsterdon
No my money's on the Cuttlefish 100%.
I like the big metal switches and levers of Nemo's boat, satisfying clunks
I think something is happening now....
Actually, a giant Ammonite, but that is in the cephalapod family. #monsterdon
@sean You may have to be more specific
#Monsterdon I really liked the giant bees. Also the Nautilus ship is just gorgeous.
@ColesStreetPothole Payroll says nuh-uh #monsterdon
#monsterdon Okay, where is Poseidon? I mean, he could help spirit us away to Mount Olympus! Right?
Chekov's underwater electric gun goes off in the final scene. #monsterdon
So, like the trumpet section decides to take a break when perhaps the most harrowing of ordeals in the entire movie occurs at the bottom of the ocean. #Monsterdon
The crew of the Nautilus gets wrecked by a "real" nautilus, IT'S LIKE RAAAIIIiiiAAAIN, ON YOUR WEDDING DAY
Underwater, no one can hear you scream.
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland1961
Aww! I LUVVV him! #Monsterdon
#monsterdon "AITA for sending a bunch of dudes to do the work for me while I stayed at my mancave"
Nemo is going to have to fight a Nautilus!?
No don't hurt it you fools. He just killing Johnny Reb! He's a Union squid!
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
@Taweret the nautilus probably used to have so many glass-fronted bookshelves before nemo had to use all the books for toilet paper
@Zerofactorial o the crustaceiony? #Monsterdon
The electric gun shoots showers of sparks and sounds like a firework.
@SnoopJ Harryhausen saves the day!
@Taweret Looks like glass but it's actually beeswax #monsterdon
the sea monster is awesome tho
Wonder which one it was. I can't tell these guys apart on a *good* day and now they're all wearing helmets. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
Luckily the volcano that erupted was the matte painting volcano and not the stock footage volcano so I think they'll be OK
wait I spoke to soon it's both of them, interspersed with each other.
they're doomed
#monsterdon Some bright red eyes, a tentacle flails, a harpsichord plays a salty lick in C Minor...
This octopus was desperately needed in that other movie a few weeks ago.
Was Cousteau involved in this damn movie?
#Monsterdon Shit, Capt Nemo is going to cure world hunger? This MF flexing for the horizon!
Oh good, thank fuck for giant octopus.
Huh, are they actually gonna kill off a character? Color me shocked. #Monsterdon
how did they make the glass facemasks for the helmets?
The octopus hates the accent too. #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
OH LOOK HE'S GOING IN THE SUBMARINE I WONDER WHY
#monsterdon
Nemo: "Don't worry, I have a pair of orca hand puppets"
"oh yeah there's an ancient city down here I guess" #monsterdon
YAY TENTACLES
Oh no, a giant giant squid!
@apLundell much easier to make goat leather... Wait
#Monsterdon
Don't worry Nemo, that'll buff right out.
@jonny ride the beeeeees
We have like FIVE minutes left. What is going on? How will they wrap all this up in 5 minutes!? #monsterdon
That "lava" looked like molten metal ...
Woo! Giant Octopus! Who brought the giant hat? How many arms did Harryhausen get this time? #Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
@ColesStreetPothole How does an honest working man afford a giant crab to feed his struggling family? #monsterdon
This is what you get for playing the harpsichord. Will you never LEARN? #Monsterdon
@bigtuffal it's #monsterdon baby no need to be rude
YES, YES⦠YES!
[pounding the table]
GIANT CEPHALOPOD
Edit: I stand corrected, movie. Forgive me, GIANT NAUTILUS
We've got tentacles, people :tentacles:
At least Dr Phibes knew how to play a pipe organ.
RELEASE THE SEAMONSTER already! #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
have I missed the giant octopus already
#monsterdon This is when I'm sad because nobody from Galicia may be watching this movie. Lots of octopus jokes
Good things they didn't decide to cut up the balloon cloth to make clothes
#Monsterdon
I've got a better idea, said the person who wasn't in this movie. Let's all float your fancy bachelor pad to the nearest port rather than going after a waterlogged ship with a fucking hole in it.
Man, this movie spent almost an hour on βslowly do a survivalismβ when there were pirates and submarines and anomalous undersea ruins the whole time. Really didnβt understand the assignment. #monsterdon
It's Sauron!
#monsterdon Oh look, it's the magma of the lord⦠great. Which one of you didn't confess to your bodice-ripping desires?!?
Wait, they stopped repairing the ship to make some underwater walkround while the women work?
#Monsterdon
OCTOPUS
It would have been easier to get the chicken to pull up the pirate ship.
TOR WHAT DID I TELL YOU ABOUT PUTTING THE OCTOPUS AWAY
we've got less than 10 minutes, so I'm guessing this plan just works and the movie suddenly ends
but maybe we'll get one last cool VFX set piece to go out on
I'm not saying that #Monsterdon needs a catch-phrase or motto, but tonight's movie has given us a gem that we all seem to find very relatable:
"because contact with my own species has always disappointed me"
OH SHIT! GODZILLA IS HERE!
#Monsterdon #MysteriousIsland
Cmon giant cuttlefish #monsterdon
@fluffy I thought you said a minor, and I was nodding, yup! better than Bee flat! #Monsterdon
the giant chickens are probably all out roosting peacefully on the ocean and you could have just ridden some of them or something #monsterdon
#Monsterdon ποΈ π π¦ π¦ͺ π¦ π±
seriously shell scuba gear needs to happen
Okay an electric gun underwater is a TERRIBLE idea but the aesthetics of the thing are impeccable.
@Zerofactorial
Why did the pirates even attack? There's nothing of value on this island to raid. π€·ββοΈ
#Monsterdon
The captain, the LAND captain, has a better understanding of physics than old timey Tony Stark. #Monsterdon
so... all this time you had a balloon that it would have taken you half an hour to repair, AND a raft, AND plenty of supplies to build a large basket. okay.
#monsterdon
Some excellent lava footage here.
#monsterdon The sexytime bellows stoped pumping. It eventually got tired and reached its refractory period. Any more pumping and the screaming would become unpleasant.
