My mind to your mind. My thoughts to your thoug- wait, wrong show!

#Monsterdon

It's like Kirk and McCoy distant cousins.

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

#monsterdon thank God the pneumatic capsule has overstuffed leather couches

good to know we don't have to go without a spock analogue.

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth

Fancy exploration team ship doesn't have anything resembling a sickbay? They have the guy on a couch in the lounge? I call shenanigans!

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Lurch wears the headband of sincerity.

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974 my thoughts ... to your thoughts ... i am erasing your browser history ...

Spock this guy ain't :/ #monsterdon

Blond Spock. Block.

#Monsterdon

Tall dude is actually wearing a wig, but he only removes it in private.

"No one must know."

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Majel Barrett sighted.

@lorgonumputz TBH that's a better story

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Of course, Majel Barret is involved too...

[profound sigh]

#monsterdon #planetearth

Maybe this is more Phoenix Five than Star Trek? Hard to say.

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Okay better late than never! #Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe he's dead, slim #monsterdon

Hooray! It’s Majel Barrett!

#Monsterdon

The leather boots... is Lurch supposed to be a giant future Native American?
#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

#monsterdon the big blonde guy needs his own series.

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

...Jesus, sorry I said anything. #monsterdon

Faux leather couches in *our* subshuttles! Finest Naugahyde!

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

*psychic mumbo-jumbo intensifies*

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Planet Earth, or Starshop LOUNGE!

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth

"with your mind" or with that fabulous hair?

#monsterdon
#PlanetEarth1974

Was that Majel on the comms? Couldn't quite tell #monsterdon

You know, I can't help but think their subsurface shuttles need...more security.

#monsterdon #planetearth

Oo, dude's lookin' bad. Strawberry jelly all over his chest diaper. #monsterdon

@yatsu

Stops all those wrong left turns.

#PlanetEarth1974
#Monsterdon

This is the weapon of the enemy. We do not need it, we will not use it. (apparently)

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Sub shuttle or... HYPERLOOP?!

#Monsterdon

Hi majel. I miss you. #monsterdon

A simple iron grate door will surely keep the surface worlders out!

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

They're going to Black Mesa ...

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth

We have the

Symbolic

Shattering

Of

The

Gun

#Monsterdon

Thank god for the subway
#Monsterdon

Quick! Take cover behind the iron grating! #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Keep calm, they are trying to kill us now!!! YAY! We're all gonna die!

He could have shot through the large grate door. I mean, a bullet could fit through a 2x2ft hole.

#monsterdon
#PlanetEarth1974

Is this Part 2 of something???

#Monsterdon

So we open on soldiers from the town of "Pax" (peace) fighting a battle

...I guess that would explain why he throws away his gun when he has the advantage on the other guy

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

#StarTrek levels of choreography too 😆

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

@ohiofi only five” #monsterdon #planetearth1974

https://mastodon.social/@ohiofi/115998590251206808

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974 obligatory batman this is the weapon of the enemy we do not use it we do not need it meme

@amyfou@lingo.lol As best as they can. Alas.

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

I know what you're thinkin… “Did he fire six pews or only five?”

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

You know what this #Monsterdon needs?

A Gorn!

A dude in a lizard suit would spice things up!

When do the Aquabats show up?

#monsterdon

constructed 1992, just like me

nobody look into that

#monsterdon

This is really some classic trek vibes so far #monsterdon

the lack of soundtrack is kinda disturbing
#monsterdon
#planetearth1974

The mutants must be using Home Depots as their supply because they have a lot of gold paint for their helmets. #Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe PEW #monsterdon

Where’s Roger Korby?

#Monsterdon

lol "Constructed 1992"
It's from the future!
#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

oh cool they're going into the subway, that thing's loaded with ghouls

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

#monsterdon hey no fair!! You're not meeting your LARP goals at all, you're just doing donuts in your truck! You're SUPPOSED to be capturing the energy crystals!

I forgot this was the pilot to a show Roddenberry couldn't get made. Probably not the best plot to lead with in the 1970s. #PlanetEarth #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon👨‍🚀 💤 ⏰ 🗓️ 👯‍♀️ 👭 🤼‍♀️ ✊ 💪 😱

what is this foley guy doing

yep did a quick check, blond headband guy is Ted Cassidy. #monsterdon

That is not an impressive sounding gun - although I could think of a few advantages, honestly

#Monsterdon

They're gonna have to turn that high pitched lazer down a notch, ow #monsterdon

#monsterdon

The gold helmets aren't helping much..

#Monsterdon

Those rocks look kind of familiar...

It is always necessary to use just the right amount of violence. #Monsterdon

why is the music wacky?

#monsterdon

At least the evil mutants are white

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I thought the advantage of ray guns is that they don't run out of pew-pews?

“Damn I’m out of lasers” #Monsterdon

He's got the chirp gun from Men In Black.

#monsterdon #planetearth

I think we just heard the Wilhelm scream.

#Monsterdon

Where's that Star Trek fight music we've come to know and love? #monsterdon

where did the post apocalypse society that cant even do farming get matching helmets?

#monsterdon

They never would have seen that obvious entrance!

#monsterdon

Why do they have fake fur spats?

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Good work Captain Kirk!
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon
The music is Trekky.
The uniforms are Trekky.
Weapons are Trekky.

Vehicles not Trekky, but very very 70s...

⁉️ PLANET TRIVIA 🌍👸

The University of California, Riverside has many cool "futuristic" architectural buildings, so most of the outdoor scenes were filmed there.

#PlanetEarth

This vehicle is giving Wacky Races #Monsterdon

I love how fights are in slow motion so no one gets hurt.

#monsterdon
#PlanetEarth1974

The guns literally go "pew!" Refreshing honesty in sci-fi tropery. #Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

ah yes, we captured the woman. of course.

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth

how convenient for the props department that the krieg (?) vehicle used a late 1970s chassis

#monsterdon

haha he's outta ammo
#Monsterdon

And jumpsuits. My god. #Monsterdon

pew

#Monsterdon

understand machines? yes. understand driving? Not in the least!

#monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

Okay, I was kidding about the "is this a pilot" thing, but now I'm not. Serious Made For TV vibes. #Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974

"Nice headband, man."

#monsterdon
#PlanetEarth1974

#monsterdon this has some real 'me and my friends playing in the backyard' production values.

#Monsterdon oh no cars survive the apocalypse #fuckcars

Note they are pacifists, or close.

#PlanetEarth1974
#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974 and that, kids, is why seat belts are important

"You rang?"

#Monsterdon

Hey, 70s cars were built to last! #Monsterdon

Star Trek meets Mad Max.

#Monsterdon

That blond wig is something. I’m not sure what exactly, but something

#Monsterdon

I had that same Walkman!
