it's a
nice day for a
space wedding
#Monsterdon

So ends another #Monsterdon. As always, thanks to @Taweret for hosting and to all the lurkers and posters. And remember #Monsterdoners: YOUR JOB IS TO DESTROY THAT SPACE STATION!

just for the record this one doesn't get better on repeat viewings

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

THAT'S THE END!?
Okay I now have a new movie I am maddest at from the watch along.
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

#Monsterdon

that movie made the least sense of any #monsterdon movie that i've seen yet and that's saying a lot. i am in AWE

So now he outranks her, too! What a relief! I was worried about that.

#monsterdon

There was a character named POLLY PRATTLES? WHEN? WHERE? Why wasn't the movie about HER?!? #Monsterdon

Good lord. Thanks friends lol #monsterdon #projectmoonbase

Another #Monsterdon is in the can!

Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!

This was quite something. We had,
- Silly space caps
- Silly space short shorts
- The worst spy ever
- A ... heavy gravity moon
- And, well, a seriously messed up ending! Just wow!

#ProjectMoonBase

There are some #Monsterdon I would come back to, laugh and enjoy. This is not one of them, thank goodness for you all for having some fun out of it.

what and why

anyway, ty for joining, everyone!!

#monsterdon

This is the creepiest, most horrifying way this movie could have possibly ended, let's pretend this movie never happened

#monsterdon

Lucky he brought a ring along because you never know. #monsterdon

GIRL PRESIDENT LET'S FUCKING GOOOOO #Monsterdon

And so our two main characters, who have shown nothing but contempt for each other over the last hour, SUDDENLY LOVE EACH OTHER AND GET MARRIED

fuck OFF, movie #Monsterdon

@douglasfur I thought those were real things? Space sickness I know is real, and I thought the second was just a version of rapture of the deep? Or is my mind playing tricks on me on that second one? #Monsterdon

#monsterdon "Did they send everything we need?" Bill opens the first crate- full of spam, opens the next crate, full of spam. All space spam except the last one which is cigarettes

#monsterdon OH GOD

OH FUCK OFF #Monsterdon

WHAT? NO! BAD MOVIE!
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Director: Here is the movie
Distubator: Um, it is only 35 minutes?
Director: Fun, I'll ad some more time
#Monsterdon

So you can just fall to your death on the moon, but also pick up extremely heavy packages with one hand

#Monsterdon

This is all very casual.
“Hey gang! Let’s make a moon base! And if that doesn’t work, we’ll just do something else.”
#monsterdon

Bill, did they send everything we need? Like my birth control pills? #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

So then Werner suddenly shows up as A MOON ZOMBIE! YEAH!

...Aw who am I kidding. :/ #Monsterdon

@gnomon space booties, never knocked

#monsterdon

riveting box stacking scene. top notch

#monsterdon

Omg did they send a baby on that tiny rocket? #Monsterdon

you have to move very slowly on the moon

#monsterdon

It's a garbage pod!

It's a smegging garbage pod!

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Oh man is there 5 minutes dedicated to this interpersonal relationship in place of a resolution of a story that barely happened?

😴

#Monsterdon

What the hell was that landing?
#monsterdon

MORE sex winching?

#monsterdon

That's a bit Freudian

#monsterdon

WHY IS THIS MOVIE BEEPING SO MUCH? Make it stop. #monsterdon

"Yeah, the White House wants you to, uh, 'get married' major." #Monsterdon

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK. #Monsterdon

what the fuck is this movie

#monsterdon

So the silly hats are 100% to hide that the hair isn't subject to 0G, right? #Monsterdon

OMG they have better video quality through their hacky antenna on the moon than I get with 10-gig (?) internet at work

#Monsterdon

oh so it was werner who got mooned. so the conflict is just that they need to get back off the moon and the whole saboteur thing was entirely inconsequential #monsterdon

#monsterdon This guy isn't even on a picture, it's just a hole in the wall on the set

🎥 LOW BUDGET FILM SCHOOL 🎥

Plan well and be efficient with use of time. #ProjectMoonBase was filmed in 10 days, despite zero gravity.

#Monsterdon

"oh he was a spy? Thank goodness...hes dead!"
#Monsterdon

I love the little tired astronaut prop! #Monsterdon #projectmoonbase

christ, SPACOM, answer already, this movie is only an hour and it's already too long. #Monsterdon

lol @ little doll of bill being winched into the spaceship

Also, why DID he take the 'enemy of freedom' out with him?
That wasn't smart Bill, gonna blame that one on the woman are we?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon (Oh it's pronounced "SPAY-kom", not "spah-CHOM", glad we got that cleared up I guess)

No wonder the costumes were so bad. They blew all their budget on dolls! #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

1/6 the gravity... 1/100th of the quality

Project MoonBase!

#monsterdon

would have been a funnier scene if she pulled the ladder back up before he could get on but whatever i guess

#monsterdon

his little miniature body, tossed there on the cardboard. poor bill. #Monsterdon

Not that I'm really complaining, but still looking for a monster in this thing

...maybe the space caps are the monster?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Well it *looked* like he wasn't breathing anymore

Aww the little space ship and moon set is adorable.
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

#monsterdon heck, Bill had a spill, that's a bitter pill

Oh no! He's been MOONED!

#monsterdon

oh no the intense moon gravity got him

#monsterdon

Rock climbing, folks. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Alpine peaks on the moon

I love how many theremins are on the moon, that is a classic vibe #monsterdon

Yeah, watch it Werner, or he'll shoot you

WITH A PISTOL

IN THE VACUUM OF SPACE

#Monsterdon

"We've landed on the Moon"

just like you took the wrong turning on the motorway (or 'freeway')

#monsterdon

@Lazarou I've been wondering about that the whole time... I thought Briteis was supposed to be in command, and she is the ranking officer on the mission, but you couldn't tell from the way they're acting

#Monsterdon

i like that they have a little futon mattress in their moon ship #monsterdon

"Bill, could you possibly rig a relay for us?"
Was that almost an order?

"Oh bill, you must, you MUST!"

ffuuuccckkkk

#monsterdon

These astronauts are real meaty specimens of the 1950s. Fulla pork and Schweibels. #Monsterdon

What'll we do with the bad guy? Burn him for fuel, duh.

#Monsterdon

$300 a pound to bring shit to the moon and this mother fucker got a wall sized rear screen tv. #Monsterdon

"...first lets find out where we are."
"Ummm ... the moon, Bill. We're on the moon."

#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonBase

"first lets find out where we are" youre on the moon IDIOT #monsterdon

*Spaceship farts*
"Sorry to have gone female on you..."
WHUT!?
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Space happy < space madness

#monsterdon

Doctor whatever his name is is going to turn out to be

#monsterdon

C'mon man. Enemy spy dude is the main reason you HAVE an air lock in a movie like this. #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Whoops, lentils. #Monsterdon

YAY AIRLOCK!

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

38 minutes in and we have moon landing. There's the money shot. Now to make a moonbase.
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

@Taweret amazing how they nailed 1970 in every other way!
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon How come Briteies doesn't have a chest strap?

space ships are basically just submarines #monsterdon

Did they just land that thing on the moon while passed out with the G-force because who landed that ship?

We know computers aren't great at that sort of thing.

#monsterdon

Ok, seriously, with this kind of burn, they can't do an Apollo 13. They're gonna meet Elon's Tesla.

#Monsterdon

It's never safe to come around the Terminator! #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

The camera tilt really sells it. #Monsterdon

@steggy Is THAT what this is? I was wondering... #monsterdon

The elevator buttons aren't lit up anymore so you know everything is okay

#Monsterdon

you can tell he's an american pilot because he brought a gun with him. must be worth the extra few hundred $ to bring it along to space with him #monsterdon

The musical score is doing it's damnedest to make this tense

and failing, so, so badly

#monsterdon

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 🚀:blobfoxscared:

#Monsterdon

I feel like they are mixing up G-Force with Gravity. The Expanse would never make this mistake! Rookie!!
#Monsterdon

@Lazarou Seriously, I wish I were space happy. #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero “Oh, ha ha, yes, my cover story!” #Monsterdon

He isn't a Dodgers fan when NYC had three baseball teams!! Sabotage!!
#Monsterdon

"I need to immediately leave and not be a spy somewhere else." #Monsterdon

this spy isn't very good at it #monsterdon

Space travel was so casual back then. This guy is just tagging along, completely ignorant of how the ship works. #monsterdon

The gravitometer has never been what you call a precision instrument, has it?
#monsterdon

just one more question: why are we all wearing these hats #monsterdon
