yeah sure blame jersey again go ahead
too expensive to set up a second room set to go talk in, so lets keep this between ourselves by stepping two feet to the left #monsterdon
When Kung Fu meets Shaft, you know the monster doesn't stand a chance #monsterdon
oh yeah chief do it I like it rough
NEVER TALK TO THE COPS, PEOPLE. #monsterdon #q
New Yorkers are a good source of protein. High in bagely goodness.
Me at work next year: "You have the right to remain silent, so shut the fuck up."
The good thing is we're halfway through this.
#Monsterdon
Heβs being taken in for crimes against acting #monsterdon
Ahhhh!!! Flashbacks!! #monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
I keep expecting Moriarty to bust out an extended monologue about the fruit of the poison tree, or collateral estoppel, or something
#Monsterdon "The Claaaaaaw" :blobfoxangrylaugh:
lol
#monsterdon MOBSTER CHOMP
(I was waiting for that one, I shan't apologize)
"Yo guys you gotta see this crazy EGG I found the other day" #monsterdon
lol @ first mobster getting it
who installed carpet on those pipes
how do you vacuum that
I'M A CHARACTER ACTA
Oh good, more scatting, over the fire escape....
Columbia University: where you can major in Mythological Creatures and Minor Inconveniences #monsterdon
@allanb Sesame Street was just a cover job
I always watch the knife prop in scenes like this.
The blood started coming out of the knife a little too early.
That dude is totally OK being skinned #monsterdon
#Monsterdon hey everyone! Iβve seen this before so I figured I would just catch up. Now I remember how shrill Michael Moriarty can get. Wow. Higher and higher and whinier. LOL
Flying thousands of miles for a human sacrifice vacation? Tourism in the 80s was weird.
Huh I think I had that book on central America. Or they all just used the same dozen photographs of statues.
#Monsterdon #QtheWingedSerpent
There's so much plot potential here. They really don't even need a creature. This guy needs a healing journey.
#Monsterdon
every second this guy is onscreen is pain #monsterdon
because he's got a great cock, I"m hoping
Does this guy sweat motor oil? Jeeze guy... get some deoderant. #monsterdon
He's an incompetent wheelman, a terrible pianist, a coward, AND a physical abuser? Wowie
That's a big apartment
Oh, the acting, it burns! #monsterdon
The game is a foot!
#Monsterdon #QtheWingedSerpent
Ugh, nothing I hate more than archeology books with sticky pages.
#Monsterdon
So is this film called "Q : The Flying Serpent" so that nobody would have to spell "Quetzalcoatl"?
wasting public funds going to the metropolitan museum of art while he's on the clock #acab #monsterdon
#monsterdon MONSTER CHOMP HAT TRICK heh heh heh hard hat
Seriously though, this is one hungry flying serpent.
Of *course* the Aztecs were going to come into it at some point π€¦
The real horror in this movie is going to be the OSHA violations. #monsterdon
eyyy we're doin' construction here fuggetaboutit
every leftist group needs to have a giant egg and skeleton room to hide out in when they need to run from the cops after stealing the diamonds we need to develop the antifa supersoldiers #monsterdon
Shame. Looks like that skeleton paid good money for that dental work.
#Monsterdon
It's a lesser-known fact that a flock of pigeons can skeletonize a man in under 30 seconds. #Monsterdon
MY GOD THE PIGEONS ATE A MAN ALIVE! #Monsterdon
Oh good, this is his chance to bond with the baby.
#Monsterdon
Starting to miss the serpent here. Not that I don't like the hijinks of Jimmy, but it's no comparison, pal.
Damn, maintenance is really poor in this building.
#Monsterdon
Something tells me that security guard is going to get eaten #monsterdon
Remember how they pointed out that this dumb-ass getaway driver hadn't had a job in 7 months or something? I think I can guess why. #monsterdon
He lost the keys AND the bag of diamonds? Worst petty criminal ever.
#Monsterdon #QtheWingedSerpent
Peking duck is a leitmotif of this movie
@moira@mastodon.murkworks.net No wonder he's been out of work.
#Monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
you could do literally anything else except walking through the middle of the road cradling the briefcase like a fupa and get away with it
chief I got problems my hairline is missing
#monsterdon
God look at all the garbage on the road
#monsterdon
Intense red inside for a getaway car, a bad omen
Moriarty needs more blow #monsterdon
I keep thinking Kung Fu
#monsterdon
When you're a jazz pianist but also moonlight as a monster hunter #monsterdon
Voyeurism and exhibitionism will be punished equally #monsterdon
She was crunchier than I expected.
#Monsterdon
lol, love the blood dripping down on clueless New Yorkers
We miss that New York
Whatever, it's NYC, that shit happens all the time
"Maybe his head just got loose and fell off! What do you want from me?!"
I dunno, half a clue about how human anatomy actually works? Just a thought....
I ordered my corpse RARE
the eating of meat makes a deep statement about violence in our society or something
Quick get the decapitated body to ER!
You guys,, you're not supposed to really eat the prop food, per liz lemon
Not monsterdonning tonight - busy with some other rushing around this evening.
Looking forward to skimming some toots at bedtime, and participating next week.
What a job
Shaft already looks tired of his white partner's shit
@RobynGoodfellow I am trying hard not to think of *Godspell* in conjunction with this photo. #Monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
In conclusion #monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
@plaidtron3000 does this mean this is a Christmas movie?
@moira you can also tell that it is literally a rubber model because of the way the head just swings around into the chest and rebounds, very special scene #Monsterdon
althought not a really feathered flying serpent, We have to give in that it was smart enough no to lay all it's eggs one one single basket
#monsterdon
@Lazarou "In New York City, the people are annoyed by two separate but equally annoying groups: the MimeCops, who investigate crimes, and the MimeDistrictAttorney's office, who prosecute them. These are their stories."
Kite jumpscare, lol #monsterdon
@ryan Snitches get stitches. Also, their head bitten off. #monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
@lorgonumputz "In the 80's all NYPD units had a mime assigned to them. This is my beat. They call me... Mime Cop" *opening credits* #monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
@heathen_cat it's one thing to convincingly play a character that the audience is supposed to like
is another entirely to sell a performance of a character the audience is supposed to look down on, especially if they're not the antagonist
@moira on screen for literally these two frames #monsterdon
What horrifying thing is in the egg!? #monsterdon
Best part of the movie for me was this cool set of shots and this actor really trying to sell "I am being crushed to death"
@strangefour @Taweret A young single mother just trying to make it in the big city, cut down in her prime. #monsterdon #QTheWingedSerpent
I canβt believe Scorsese directed this. #Monsterdon
i love this movie. thanks @Taweret for another fun #monsterdon !
I'm sitting here shitting on democracy, but it occurred to me that #monsterdon really does encapsulate modern democracy in the US. @Taweret gives us a curated slate of horrors, and we just vote for the clownshow with the coolest name.
@LingLass You gotta wonder how that logic plays out in the guys head
Like: here is this one thing that you will definitely die if you do, ergo, you will be convinced to do it
@plaidtron3000 ya don't get sky serpents like that back in jersey!
#monsterdon
#monsterdon David Lynch's The Winged Serpent
EGGY 2: Revenge of the Giant Claw!
#Monsterdon #QtheWingedSerpent
@LingLass o don't say a prayer for me now
save it 'til the morning after
THANKS ALL
We had to wait the entire movie to see that great SFX final battle.
But it was worth it because of
@Taweret , the exceptional host
@cheribaker with the tricky Bingo card ("Cops try to arrest monster" was immediate favorite)
and the Real Time Film Analysis Squad, who tried to claw back some reality from the film, but, IMHO, were outmatched by the writer-director.
Looks like the tootflow continues after some timeline constipation.
