The jetpacks are impressively quiet. Almost as if they're just a bullshit greenscreen effect. #monsterdon

it bothers me so much that they're actually calling the kaiju "young gary"

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

Pew pew! Pew pew pew! So far those guns have the best dialogue in the film. #Monsterdon

me, when things don't go my way: Unfortunate. Dematerialize YoungGary.

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

I like how the alien's head jerk around when they talk
#Monsterdon

"We are the Jet Pack Marines. Our motto is: Float like a butterfly, roast like a marshmallow!"

#Monsterdon #Reptilian

MEANWHILE, ABOVE THE PLANET

#monsterdon

MATT DAMON!! #Monsterdon

"We have jetpacks so let's hover here still in exactly the same place for ages"

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

Have they considered not approaching in direct line of fire?
#monsterdon #yonggary1999 #reptilian1999

vinegar syndrome 4k remaster this next cowards #monsterdon

the only reason this movie looks any good at all is because it was made back when it was still easier and cheaper to film some things practically

#Monsterdon

listen as someone who was in the prime marketing demo for this movie when it came out, jetpack marines are fucking awesome and a good choice #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🕵️‍♀️⛏️🐊🐢🦎🐍🐉🦕🦖😱
#Yonggary1999

the fire emanating from those jetpacks would definitely give all these guys 3rd degree calf burns

useless temu rocketeers

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

the fuck was that callout lmao

#monsterdon

That’s the best line in the movie, so far:

“Compared to this guy, Godzilla is a pussy.”

#Monsterdon

>> Godzilla is a pu$$y.

Hey, hey buddy! Watch your mouth!

#monsterdon

@wohali The head army guy on the helicopter was reminding me so much of the villain who isn't Malcolm McDowell from Wing Commander IV. Because Malcolm McDowell is still Malcolm McDowell, even in a CD-ROM FMV game.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon I'm not sure these people know what 'lock' means. Interesting that it's bothering to dodge *these* missiles though.

Now I've seen it all
#Monsterdon

Holy Shit the T-Force can FLY. #Monsterdon

let's gooo time for war crimes
#monsterdon

And now, Skydivers 2: Electric Boogaloo! #Monsterdon

What's your responsibility, soldier?
Hellraiser, sir!
No, not what you put on LinkedIn, what you really do!?
#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I think this army commander(?) with the shiny teeth is my favorite guy in this— every line is savored, every movement smug

Godzilla is a pussy? OH NO YOU DIDN'T.
#monsterdon #yonggary1999 #reptilian1999

"I want to be excused" is apparently a well-established and accepted military protocol #Monsterdon #Reptilian2001

Ope, it's 🦎 time again!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🕵️‍♀️⛏️🐊🐢🦎🐍🐉🦕🦖😱
#Yonggary1999

they appear to have given Yonggary a lighty hat!

Good grief!

#Monsterdon

Why do we care about these random soldiers, they're gonna get squished soon.

#Monsterdon

& that's the day a child became a Lieutenant. #Monsterdon

Sorry, sir! I am merely a heckraiser. #monsterdon

homie even if you got a dismissal you're in the aircraft already what would you even do instead #monsterdon

I want the shouting idiot from Suicide Squad in this chopper

THIS IS KATANA

#Monsterdon

I Request to get off of this mission.

Big this energy:

#monsterdon

this is _not_ a good Independence Day speech.

I'm sorry.

#monsterdon

he has to take off his helmet to ask a question?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon dæmon ➡️ diamond ➡️ a hexagonal carved thing on Yonggary's forehead? What the hell?

#monsterdon Get me more T-Forces! Testosterone! Anabolics! SHRINKAGE!

@ohiofi evergreen #monsterdon post

Aaaaaaaand *another* new accent for Holly #Monsterdon #Reptilian2001

residential areas being evacuated basically means 100% gridlock

#Monsterdon

honestly this computer translation is exactly the same level as John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness so I can't fault it any

#Monsterdon

"What intelligence?"

Oh, snap.

#monsterdon

and this creature called man

crawling on the planet's face

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

He's a "perfect fighting machine" because he can duck?
#Monsterdon

reptillian weaknesses: teleports when convenient to the plot.

#monsterdon

forcefields too huh

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999 #Yonggary1999

They lost 9 sixteens. So. Um. 144? Gross. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Doesn't this thing have any weaknesses, you know, beyond the plot, the casting and... distribution…

"Doesn't that thing have any weaknesses?"

Box office returns.

#Monsterdon

He's out of missiles, he should have gone to the missile store and stocked up.

Is that a joke? I'm running out of patience with this.
#monsterdon

yay! bingo!

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

Oh, all these neon signs & lights. This is clearly Fresno. #Monsterdon

straight to nukes, huh? i guess bob dole won the '96 election in this universe

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

"Switching to sidewinders"
*launches AGM-65 Mavericks*

#Monsterdon #Reptilian2001 #Yonggary1999

Young Gary brushes off Humanity's trifling weapons...

#Monsterdon

This is one of those bad movies I can see when I watch what the plan was to try and make money/get an audience. I watched The Order yesterday and have NO idea what audience they were aiming for.... #monsterdon

#monsterdon... Are we the kids on the bus? 😆

(everything explodes)

Wheeeee!!!

#monsterdon The dishwasher residue commercial Tubi just showed me had better writing and pacing than this movie.

Not the Oilberg! They just destroyed that a minute ago!

#monsterdon
#Yonggary1999

Three planes just fell off my screen!

Well then, stop playing with action figures on the job, kiddo!

#monsterdon

Remember folks, this is the version after they re-edited to put in BETTER effects

#Monsterdon #Reptilian

Various kaiju-ish things happen at length, at night so we can hide the poor compositing and CGI.
#Monsterdon

military's doing a better job of fucking up the city than the monster, great job team

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

MOAR MISSILES

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999 #Yonggary1999

I think these pilots don't know what "lock" means. #monsterdon #yonggary1999 #reptilian1999

Thank God the 5th Air Division of Reverse Projection with Shaky Cam is here!

#monsterdon
#Yonggary1999

@Lazarou I'm pretty sure that just killed their acting carrer
#monsterdon

This movie was made after Independence Day, MiB, and Godzilla Hides in NYC. No excuse for the lackluster graphics.

#Monsterdon

"Negative impact"

There they go, talking about my career again....

#monsterdon

Oh come on, kill the children Yonggari. That's how you know a kaiju is for real. #Monsterdon

When your bus driver is bussin'

#Monsterdon

Bystanders gawk at devastation ✅

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999 #Yonggary1999

These kids are the best actors in the whole film. Probably the best paid too.

#monsterdon
#Yonggary1999

Kids bus scene was my favorite so far.

#Monsterdon

I'm almost embarrassed to watch this. Like, I want to apologize to the actors for having watched them in this.

#monsterdon

@apLundell I'm pretty sure a fair number of the explosions used actual fireballs, so maybe

#Monsterdon #Reptilian2001 #Yonggary1999

Sorry I went back to see what the humvee driver character was named. I couldn't find a name, they just call him sergeant? There's like five seargeants credited but none of them were in adult films.

So did I miss anything? No. Looks like I didn't. #monsterdon

For some reason, the acting on this reminds me of the acting in the SNL skit "The Californians"

#Monsterdon

LOL! Kids love it!

#Monsterdon

THIS IS NOT A DRILL

THIS IS A MOVIE!

#monsterdon

That means we both take our orders from [REDACTED]

#Monsterdon

"I want to leave!"
"You can't leave unless I tell you to leave! Now scram!"

Um... what?

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

#monsterdon The logic of firing useless missiles at monsters has always entertained me. This one will do it, that one will do it, just three more and that'll do it! Any time now! This one! That one! Throw rocks! Throw cheese! *bump bump bump*

That hot dog vendor was 3 days from retiring

#Monsterdon #Yonggary1999

-1 hot dog stand!
#Monsterdon

I do like Yongary's commitment to massive urban destruction. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon I think that gas station was a model! Was it the first one in the film?

"What do you know about it?"
"What? Nothing. Nobody does. You think this thing's been around and people just haven't said anything about it? Idiot."
#monsterdon

They spent all the "effects" budget on explosives, didn't they?

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

@jadebees #monsterdon

Wait, I thought this was NYC! They showed a river, like... uh... the one in NYC!

Oilberg gas station. Oil. Berg. Gas. Station. amazing, no notes.

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

y'all I think everyone who didn't vote for Reptilian owes us all an apology because this is way more fun than a lot of the stuff we've watched this year

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon They should consider giving cops radios or something.

I'm pretty sure payphones in LA didn't look like that.

#Monsterdon #Reptilian2001

I gotta respect the fireball breath that spears right through one building and hits the next

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

Okay, the bike cop is part of the LAPD

#Monsterdon #Reptilian2001 #Yonggary1999
