@plaidtron3000 I bet "The Savage" just loves it when the doctor talks to him like that... #Monsterdon

He really should start this expositional voice notes either with "Captain's Log" or "Dear Diary..."

Is this where Musk got the idea for the Hyperloop?

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth #monsterdonreplay

@kcarr2015 🎉

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Lol, wood-gas burning car! It's actually a pretty great idea, in theory. I've seen nerds do it on the internet. it works, just.

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth #monsterdonreplay

Bingo... and we shall never speak of this again.

#Monsterdon #PlantEarth1974 #NowWatching

@Louisa We had to import the 1970s male mindset into the future, to translate confusing sci-fi futurethought for the 1970s audience. #Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Okay, it's safe to unmute everyone, the scary Gene Roddenbery pilot is over. #Monsterdon

CAN'T WE JUST GET BEYOND THUNDERDOME?

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth #monsterdonreplay

Handsome. Racial. Mixture.

What does that mean?

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth #monsterdonreplay

I don't think renewing the air and water in Albuquerque would be enough to ever make it green.

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth #monsterdonreplay

One thing we can definitely say about Planet Earth is that, if it had gotten a series order, there would have been a character named Noonien Singh or thereabouts sooner or later #monsterdon

and in 2011 he was STILL thinking about it

#Monsterdon

@xerozohar The thing about Gene is he really did need someone to keep a tight leash on him.

...okay maybe i won't use THAT metaphor again but you get what I mean >_>

#Monsterdon

No, really, Le Guin wrote a short story about the Ekumen running across a woman-dominated society, called "The Matter of Seggri" and it won the Otherwise Award.

So if you want to see this trope handled by someone who knows what they are doing, look it up.

Belvera's cyborg dragon mount got an upgrade.
#Monsterdon #RebirthofMothra2

@apLundell I was wondering about this when we saw all the main women gathered around a table towards the end, and there were, what, eight of them?

#Monsterdon

@diazona No chance with this one. #monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

imdb thinks Planet Earth (1974) was remade as Strange New World (1975) also starring John Saxon playing a character who wakes from hibernation ???

can someone who went to film school explain this

#Monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai
Was the dialog surprisingly good?
I suppose if you compare it to One Million Years BC.

I don't think it had dialog.
#monsterdon

Seriously, tell me this is not the vision gene was striving for (at least during the small portion of the movie when his dick wasn't out) #monsterdon

Anyway, good job again launch team, another movie launched into space, and Flight Control informs me it _will_ dive into the sun. We've saved Earth from this one for sure.

And thanks to @Taweret for hosting as always.

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

@moira 🎉 nice one

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Should have watched the Grammys #Monsterdon

Yes, men are back, baby!💪🫶

#Monsterdon #PlantEarth1974 #NowWatching

@diazona 😂 You left An Amusing Moment! 😂

#Monsterdon

Thanks for the FANTASTIC post #Monsterdon Mothra Tamagochi ad @ryan NOW I WANT ONE :blobcheeky:

@Newpa_Hasai

Much better.

#Monsterdon

@Louisa nobody knows. My guess… the 70s.

#Monsterdon

@Louisa

Maybe for the 999 other adventures to come?

#Monsterdon

Men!

And I guess that one guy survived too.

Thanks @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe@retro.pizza It was a very strong contender, but it makes up for the terrible (gestures at everything) by being 74 minutes, not 2 hours 31 minutes.

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Thanks to all of you #Monsterdon people for being here for this one. I couldn't have taken this movie without you all here suffering with me! 🤣

And for the relatively large number of women in this movie, it still managed to pull a Bechdel fail. Right? I mean I might not have noticed it? #Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

I was close for a long time but no bingo 😢

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

#monsterdon AquaMothra!

Was that the trailer? Does this mean that the Goth older-sister shobijin's baby dragon mount survive the first movie? I thought it was toasted in the first one, if not then that's good news. Poor guy didn't deserve that.

@RobynGoodfellow @Taweret

[Getting to work on "All-Star but every word is dink"]

#Monsterdon

oh wait the soundtrack of the tomagotchi ad, what a nice touch as always @ryan #monsterdon

The Dink's, now sober, have put down the invasion of the Counterfeit Klingons! All SIX of them!

With that the Matriarchy works towards "balance"

THE END

Of the countless #Monsterdon movies, this has been one of them!

Thank you for sharing this regressively progressive Roddenberry err...thing... with us @Taweret ! The younger folk among us now have a better understanding of why TOS and early TNG especially were...the way they were!

i'm not going to stick aroudn for all of the miru stream mothra movie but i will say that the soundtrack is almost exactly the same #monsterdon

@holly@toot.hoppet.cool yeah, it wasnt boring i guess. it was so bad 😆
#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Well, that was technically a movie, I think. Maybe? Actually, I'm not even sure.

I'm gonna go eat some garbage frozen pizza and maybe watch some Starfleet Academy or something. Goodnight #monsterdon, thanks to @Taweret for hosting, and see y'all next week!

the pater took a bullet only to have to listen to this generic ending of every star trek episode

#Monsterdon

@Newpa_Hasai Oh well. #Monsterdon #PlanetEarth 👽 🎥 🍿

DINK FIGHT

#Monsterdon

🦖#MONSTERDON Goodbye!

❤️ Thank you @Taweret for hosting this gender genre grotesquerie!

🅱️ and thanks @cherizilla for the Bingo card! My favorite: "Finally a good plan"

🎞️ and more thanks to @paco for data analysis and @combatwombat for the replays.

🦖And to all the members of the Real Time Film Analysis Squad: That was a lot of intensity! Have a wonderful week! It has to be better than that future. And remember: Of course I want you to touch me. Dink

@YsengrinWolf Mine too

Definitely worst of this year, but probably on the short list for worst all-time too

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

@YsengrinWolf it's a question

this vs. invasion of the star creatures

it's a hard call

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Oh man o_o
Good thing he went back to Star Trek.
Thanks @Taweret for hosting.

Now on to the Rebirth of Mothra 2 (1997), on https://miru.miyaku.media/ 🦋 #monsterdon

Oh thank Pharasma it's over.

This was *painful* but I had a lot of fun thanks to y'all. But it's definitely the Owlbear's bed time.

Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, watch… something better than even smarmier than usual John Saxon starring in Gene Roddenberry's My Fetishes.

Goodnight!

#Monsterdon

the real monster all along was gender roles

#monsterdon

welp, that was absolutely without merit

#monsterdon

Thank fuck, terrible diaglog & barely coherent story is ..

OK, it's got my vote for worst Monsterdon.

I cannot believe what I am watching.

Planet Earth (1974) - 1/5

incredibly, both boring and exhausting

#monsterdon #monsterdonReviews

"It sounds interesting." It's not old dude. Not even a little bit. #monsterdon

"A thousand new adventures. Enough episodes to make up a syndication package. Please buy this show."

#Monsterdon

They all survived which is so very disappointing.

Thank you @Taweret for hosting and everyone for participating!

#monsterdon
#PlanetEarth1974

1000 adventures, and you picked the weirdest one to tell us about
#monsterdon

This could also be called "Gene Roddenbery's: A Matter of Seggri" #Monsterdon

That theme song working so hard to not be the Star Trek theme.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon It nearly glanced off Creek Secrets on that bed there... ;)

Well, didn't get #MonsterdonBingo did anyone else? #Monsterdon #PlanetEarth 👽 🎥 🍿

Whoof. I never want to hear the word 'dink' again. Thanks again to @Taweret for hosting. Have a great week Beautiful Mutants. #Monsterdon #PlanetEarth

Well, that was a thing. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

That last look between the women made me think of an entirely different outcome to the movie if she had stayed behind.

LOL

Dinking off into the planet-spanning subway system. Maybe

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

...So "Pater" is a title?

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Ooooooooof

That... was certainly a thing that Roddenberry filmed.

#Monsterdon

WHY?! WHY WAS THIS MOVIE?!

#monsterdon
#PlanetEarth1974

#monsterdon Also, seriously, was that Shatner on helium narrating the beginning/end?

I wish you hadn't tired me with this story TBH
#monsterdon

#monsterdon That candle was doing a lot of spotlight work.

Aww. Janet Margolin died in 93. Only 50.

#Monsterdon

Yeah, Dorothy Hamill, we share the eye roll. #Monsterdon

@jonny@neuromatch.social This was the surgeon's plot coming to fruition, wasn't it? Everyone was drugging their Dinks, but the surgeon added in something to neutralize the drug in the latest round of gruel.
