#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

A lot of drama trying to brought out of simple space docking procedures, bless

#monsterdon

#monsterdon The Gravitometer is going nuts

Cue the elevator lights and spin the gravitometer!

#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonBase

some damn fucker hit every button on the space elevator again, we won't get to the moon for weeks!

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Nice designs on the rocket. The moon rocket (correctly) has a much different design than the earth rockets. #monsterdon

mark's not here, major

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

I'm still curling my noodle around the ship being called Mexico. #Monsterdon

"ready to swing, colonel"

Oh it's going to become that kind of movie, is it?

#monsterdon

united states space frisbee

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Hey, she has a Vision Pro!

#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonBase

The sphere of the lander disconnects from the space station with an audible POONK! #Monsterdon

Look just because you CAN walk on the walls and ceilings doesn't mean you SHOULD I don't need the crick in the neck talking at people sitting on the wall! #Monsterdon

Did anyone see the "salvation army" door on the space station? #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

I need a PLEASE DO NOT WALK ON THE WALLS poster
#Monsterdon

I fully expect someone to walk in and ask if this is the Argument Clinic.

#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonBase

...Salvation Army? How'd THOSE goobers get up there? :/ #Monsterdon

yeah shove off yourself

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Any starfleet officer will tell you that's terrible rank pip placement. Missed the collar completely #Monsterdon

LOL #Monsterdon

Oh hey a couple simple split screens. Not bad effect but weird way to cover zero gravity.
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

I'm enjoying the Goofy Orientation Shots here :D #Monsterdon

Heh cute sign.
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

#monsterdon Got a bit creative here with the gravity thing

After all that, are we going to get cute little Batteries Not Included baby stations?

#monsterdon

why. wait.. why are we all wearing lil booty shorts?

#monsterdon

Why is the inside the station tilted?
#Monsterdon

keep in mind, #monsterdon, that kubrick made 2001: A Space Odyssey less than ten years after this

Who wears short space shorts? #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

#monsterdon OMG the government style metal desk chairs in space

Time for some hot, hot docking. #Monsterdon

Oh man check out this tilt angle. Cinematography engaged

#Monsterdon

"It's Zero-g.......tip the camera"

#monsterdon

@allanb I'd rather see the rest of them barf, they seem like softies by how they're screaming

#Monsterdon

Travelling to see the eclipse so instead of #monsterdon I'm in a motel in northern Arkansas watching the History Channel and eating sponge cake with disposable chopsticks

#monsterdon The two male pilots get unflattering facial closeups but the colonel gets a full-body sprawling shot, eh?

😑

#monsterdon I want to see her barf

And WHY is the floor all wet, COLONEL?

I don't know, MAJOR!

They are so passive aggressive. Love it

#Monsterdon

That bra is good to over 15 Gs. #Monsterdon

this is where "trying so hard" and "failing so hard" intersect

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Oh no! That rocket is stopping at ALL the floors! #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Drama Queens, it's really not that bad

The gravitometer is off the charts!

#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonBase

trivia actually relevant: there was, early on, a women's astronaut corps specifically on the basis of being smaller / lighter on average, and therefore theoretically easier to get into space.

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

i can't stop laughing at their outfits #monsterdon

By the way: transpolar orbit as a staging ground for a trip to the moon???

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon What

Canada?!?

GO TO SPACE #monsterdon

Canada is blasting off! #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

@athena_rising Maybe it's a lookalike of Roundtree? Doppelgangers everywhere

(actually I haven't gotten to that part yet)

#Monsterdon

Ground crew supplied by Southwest Airlines

#ProjectMoonBase
#Monsterdon

@athena_rising it's a subtle piece #monsterdon

"...free fall?"
"Yes, have you heard of Lynyrd Skynyrd?"
"...that's freebird, sir"
"Shut up! It's FreeFall!"

#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonBase

oh the old magnetic shoes angle #monsterdon

"could you explain things to me, a silly woman, General?"

"BALL GO ROUND EARTH, FALLING AROUND"

#monsterdon

Did the actor playing the general even bother to learn the lines, or... what?

#monsterdon

Hard to imagine why a Jack Seaman film would have a lot of silly names. #Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Hey , Col Bright-Eyes, zip up your jacket. This is a historic moment and the press is here.

#monsterdon

"Well, I wouldn't expect a WOMAN to know what a moon is"

#monsterdon

military with women colonels but who still speak in breathless mid-atlantic accent and spankings are acceptable means of maintaining a chain of command #monsterdon

"The women wouldn't understand the space toys.....or how cool they are"

#monsterdon

the guy who wrote this movie was not okay

#monsterdon

Whaaaaa? Spanking? Ok maybe I judged this movie too harshly til now. #Monsterdon

MOTHERFUCKER, you deliberately mispronounce an officer's name, and you expect her to NOT BE SURLY AT YOU?

Fuck ALL THE WAY OFF, General. SIR.

#Monsterdon

Wow, so many HR complaints waiting to happen #monsterdon

"No I don't."

#monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

and they're talking about Macintoshes? i sweat to fucking god all of Silicon Valley's technocratic fure comes from pulp sci-fi movies from the 1950s and the whole 1930s Flash Gordon series.

#monsterdon

Oh, is 'General' her dad, is that why she's allowed in a uniform?

#monsterdon

"Shut up Brighteyes!"

Hey, fuck YOU, sir #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Dean Stockton is going to show up murder/eat this reporter soon

#Monsterdon

(We **BETTER** get a sequence of this adorable little doodad flying.)

#monsterdon

Bright Eyes is a w-w-w-w-w-WOMAN!?
The other lady is named Ms Prattles... and she lives up to her name.
#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Is that a tiara on Ms. Prattles?
I could see the trend toward casual tiaras.

#ProjectMoonBase
#Monsterdon

Bright eyes brought her *MOM*? #Monsterdon

"Real men only think when they smoke Bill.....perhaps you should try"

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon POLLY PRATTLES?!

great now in my head I am all "Turn arouuuund Colonel Briteis!" and it won't go away! #Monsterdon #TotalEclipse

#Monsterdon Coffee Watch: This scene could have been made better with coffee instead of cigarettes. Even Bill knows that.

What’s a better name? #Monsterdon

bill is NOT taking it easy #monsterdon

Omg that guy was the main guy's boss in I Dream Of Jeannie looool #monsterdon #projectmoonbase

Damn you not read out the telegram aloud #Monsterdon

i enjoy futures that don't anticipate transistors. in fact, everything gets even chonkier so that you know it's from the future #Monsterdon

Ah, the most efficient way to write ".", "PERIOD"

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Every now and then they get a little promotion and - TURN AROUND - BRIGHT EYES

TURN AWAY BRITEIS #monsterdon

Dr. Bellows Pre-Jeanie days. #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

#Monsterdon Nice swim cap, dude. Guess they pulled him from the pool to escort the doctor, WHOSE JOB IT IS TO DESTROY THE SPACE STATION (in case you missed it).

SPACOM, they sell commercial spas #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

WHAT IS HE WEARING ON HIS HEAD AND WHY DOES HE LOOK LIKE A PENIS #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

"...do they make you wear those hats?"
"Yes. We don't like to talk about it."

#Monsterdon #ProjectMoonBase

Cordless telephones with an easily interceptable signal, and an even more easily spotted spy transmitter stuck under the desk. #monsterdon #ProjectMoonbase

Dr Werner uh? I wonder what he was doing 1932-1945....?
#Monsterdon
