#monsterdon This DVD has a commentary track!!!!!! dare I
Yes
What's it going to take for the serpent to eat Jimmy? Asking for a friend. #monsterdon
Not being American I just assume guns are lying around under couches, on kitchen surfaces, in a baby's crib...right?
#monsterdon THE SERPENT TAKES FLIGHT
Oh goodness that theremin
Cop movie where every single cop character eventually turns into a Mime, unable to do their jobs as they are Mimes. They can't talk to anyone, they can't touch people, they're Mimes.
Imagine what the city would be like fellow Monsterdonians.....
Goodnight!
#monsterdon SURPRISE SECOND QUETZALCOATL NEST AND EGG
And that's a wreck! Nobody fucked off into the sea but plenty of people got fucked off the side of a building, and that one guy got eaten right out of a rooftop pool which definitely counts for something.
Thank you, @Taweret@octodon.social! That was goofy and a lot of fun. Now I must try to find the soundtrack to use it as a morning alarm clock tomorrow.
"Mime Cops"
Think of the possibilities folks, and with that second egg still out there, Rudy Giuliani with his big egg head saying he knows where the egg is then scatting all over the floor
Sequel please
I'm left with a question: how did a random medical student successfully recruit so many people to be human sacrifices?
I'll be honest, people causally offering themselves up for sacrifice is way creepier than a giant winged serpent.
Cults man, fucking cults.....
These accusations against sky snake are politically motivated. There are good people on both sides of the Sky Snake vs Gruesomely eaten people conversation. What sky snake is doing for New York is HUGE.
#monsterdon
#monsterdon Anyone else notice that the storefront was labelled "Neil Diamonds"?
#monsterdon OK OK I have this rental until next Saturday, I'll put on the commentary track sometime this week but not tonight, I can't handle this movie twice in rapid succession (like two serpent chomps thirty seconds apart)
"The plumed serpent will rise again" he said, swallowing the Viagra
#monsterdon t'was bullets killed the beast
Why IS she with him though?
#monsterdon "The priest did it - awakened it from centuries of slumber. This thing has been... prayed... into existence."
I love this movie, this is amazing dialogue, somebody wrote this
I still can't over seeing an office without any computers, it feels weird
Good to know that "the Babylonians go all the way back."
#monsterdon
THATS WHY THEY CALL THE SERPENT Q. This is a Q drop. Wake up sheeple!
#monsterdon
> Azteks
> Pacific northwest artifacts
You want the city to step in and limit Sky Snake eating people? That sounds like SOCIALISM to me comrade
#monsterdon
I can only assume the creature is defeated at the end of the movie by its love of blues.
#Monsterdon
"Mime Squad"
"Mime Cops"
"Beverley Hills Mime Cop"
I can't believe Hollywood never took up on this thread....
lol, that scene was everything, winged serpents, stop motion Shaft, overacting street mime!
NYPD vs ......anything really, I'm siding with the 'anything'
These really are dumb mobsters to be lured into such a trap
The first thing a 21st century person would do is take a picture of the egg and share it with the world, "Look at this fucking big egg?!" and nobody would probably believe it now because that's the dystopia we live in
Yayy.
#monsterdon
Ahhhh, now I know why Teenage me particularly enjoyed this movie
Don't judge, this was just before the Internet gave us all tits.
@CactuarJoe if I ever visit New York I hope to hear conversations like that #monsterdon
#monsterdon @researchfairy you're missing out, tonight's movie is actually literally about deicide
#Monsterdon Mr. Quinn is the trope of loud nasty New York City loser. Not lovable, but voted most likely to improve with handcuffs and a ball gag. LOL.
How high was the script writer? #monsterdon
Laughing too hard at some of the comments
#monsterdon
I feel like Scatman is giving his acting at a 10 for a movie that is at best a 6, at best.
Joke about pardoning Nixon there, imagine America being that corrupt again, or even far worse, ha......
#Monsterdon Itβs super convenient when your snacks just walk up to you. LOL. Om nom nom.
I love how this bird is now eating assholes
#monsterdon
to be fair that is quite convincing behaviour for a guy watching a giant winged serpent eat people, that shit will give you PTSD
More scat
Oh please, not scat! NOT SCAT!! I'll tell you anything you need to know! #monsterdon
#monsterdon This music has got to go. What in the heck is this bizarre jazz interlude? What was that about??
@diazona the scat levels of this film were unexpected #monsterdon
Whoβs the private dick thatβs a sex machine to all the chicks? Shaft! Oh wait, wrong movie. #monsterdon
WE ARE GONNA BUILD A FEEDING TROUGH FOR SKY SNAKE AND WE ARE GONNA MAKE MEXICO PAY FOR IT.
#makeskysnakegreatagain #monsterdon
#monsterdon Our hero Jimmy Quinn here keeps climbing up into the superstructure of the building long past when it makes sense for him to keep ascending. Anyone check him for cordyceps lately..?
OMG mothra egg!!
#monsterdon @k8eb just announced "well someone's about to get eaten by the pterodactyl". That's the P movie Katie, this is the Q movie
What do you mean Extended warranty? Its a getaway car?!
#monsterdon
Loving the aerial shots of New York, as a Sim City 4 player I recognise some of those buildings.
#monsterdon
"Hey, there, you found that guys' head yet?"
This barman is straight to the point
90% of Jazz is shit like this, it's the other 10% that matters
Most of the men around this table I have recognise as mobsters from other movies
#monsterdon
#monsterdon MONSTER CHOMP
Man this movie isn't wasting any time at all
SHAFT is in this, actual SHAFT
@davesdogmaggie I like to think that's what they told Micheal Moriarty so he gave way too much effort for a b movie with tits #monsterdon
#monsterdon The NYPD officer is going to leave _building services_ to discover the body he ventilated!? NOT COOL DUDE
#Monsterdon Quinn has two speeds, dumb and violent. A real man about town. Get him a top hat and spats! Pronto!
WHY DOESN'T MIME COP'S GUN HAVE A SILENCER?????
lol, classic NYPD "shoot everyone that moves then lie about it"
Are they gonna plant a gun on the Baby Q and sprinkle him with crack?
βIβm the baby, gotta love meβ #monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
lol, classic NYPD double cross, "no money for you!"
#monsterdon Wait what? Why in the heck is he shooting the egg with an automatic rifle?? Right below the egg are all his coworkers! OSHA is going to have something to say about this firearm handling.
NYPD filming the senseless slaughter of course, the things they must have on film.....must be like the Vatican secret library...
@RufusJCooter he's in the egg! #monsterdon
Let the overacting criminal devise the City's anti-serpent plan....it's like a premonition of Trump dealing with a natural disaster
#monsterdon Oh wow, they namedropped Rupert Murdoch!? I thought this was a _funny_ monster movie, I didn't expect a real one
did he just make a reference to Rupert Murdoch? Is that how long his talons have been in the US?
"I'm just asking for a Nixon-like pardon" is a legitimately funny line. #Monsterdon
Waaaaiiiittt.....I know where ive seen him before!
#monsterdon
exposition/kill
exposition/kill
exposition/kill
5 mins/5 seconds
@OldRustBucket@universeodon.com I swear, there's a hidden joke about real New Yorkers not looking up
lol, the way Shaft grips Scatman's balding head!
Guess the monster decided to take a bite out of crime... literally #monsterdon
Does the Scat Man befriend the mighty Q to rid him of his mob enemies?
Why does the FBI know so much about Aztec gods, I think I missed who that guy was working for
I find it implausible a Big Bird is flying around NYC killing, and nobody notices it
#Monsterdon Suddenly an episode of βIs it cake?β Breaks out. Yes. He is cake. Bloody cake. Sweaty cake.
The kitchen sink drama is at odd with the winged serpent drama.
Teenage me would be hoping for more tits right now instead of method acting, right now I want more random raptor carnage....perhaps more bar room scat too.
Everyone looks like they wash their hair with soap
"Not the first time a monster was mistake for a god"
That cop has seen some shit go on in New York
AHHHHH NO NO NO FLAYING UNLESS IT'S BUFFY
Gotta say the winged serpent is a very efficient feeder, not a strip of flesh left
Well done Q, making a go of life in the big city
@srol he scatted all over that bar. The owners were very upset #monsterdon
How does nobody notice a gigantic egg in the Chrysler building?! The state of the inside as well, America does not look after it's landmarks, it's sad.
Already on the train back home to Manhattan. My ever-paranoid parents have asked me to text them when I get into Penn Station, so I plan to inform them about the giant bird monster terrorizing my train around when we hit the Queens county line. #Monsterdon
As annoying as Jimmy is, the actor for him has the character down exactly right. We've all met a Jimmy, we know this guy. This effing guy. #Monsterdon
this dude got gumby ass limbs
@Newpa_Hasai New York was just that kind of vibe back then, or so they say..... #monsterdon
Go to new york, start talking to randos about EY REMEMBER WHEN WINGED GODS TERRORIZED THE CITY? GABBAGOOL
Nothing much, just the police casually leaving a body in a hotel room #monsterdon
Another #Monsterdon is in the can!
Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!
Tonight's feature, #QTheWingedSerpent from 1982, contained quite the quirky quatrain of quippy quotes! We also had,
- Lots of creepers
- Giant egg!
- Human sacrifice!
- Not nearly enough monster! (But the monster parts we got were awesome!)
- Police mime!
@strangefour can't believe Q killed Shaft #monsterdon
I was hoping for a scat finale though #monsterdon
#Monsterdon The Chrysler Building reminds me so much of the Niagara Mohawk building in Syracuse. Someone is going to get Gozer the Gozerian doing buildings this way!
Now is the time for a sequel and that egg to hatch
It *can* be hurt by bullets, it just has tons of HP.
Whoever said that this is like Godzilla '98 was right.
The mime can't say anything
#monsterdon
