Monster Yonggary has some moves. You can't hit him with your rocket missiles. He'll duck every time.
#Monsterdon

so many people get all worked up about unrealistic military etiquette, lingo, guns and gunfire, etc., in movies and i get to be blissfully ignorant because i am canadian

#Monsterdon

It's interesting how sometimes this kaiju is super accurate & sometimes they just destroy a bunch of model infrastructure. #Monsterdon

So... the school bus is too fast for him but the F16's are easy targets.

That tracks.

#monsterdon Four planes! Wait! These are sticky notes! Not Airplanes!

He got Daria's grandfather?!

@littlemiao

I've checked it.

Who had "Fox Two" on your bingo card? #Monsterdon

I wear my sun shields at night, so I..

They shoulda brought A10s the GAU-8 might leave a mark on Young Gary.

I guess I have to take back the nice thing I said about collateral damage

these fighter pilots are just blowing up all the skyscrapers themselves good work dudes

“Dang it. How could we miss?” #Monsterdon

It feels like Independence Day if it were written by children. And that movie wasn't exactly super sophisticated to begin with.

#monsterdon

@socketwench

In "Manos, The Hands Of Fate" the only ones paid were the little girl and the dog. Bike and bag of dog food, respectively.

Has there been clever use of scale? Asking for my bingo card #Monsterdon

Flying with sun shields on at night?
#monsterdon

@peribotsarah that's where i started - I just wanted to expand it. these are the least military "military" I've ever seen

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

we're watching the collateral damage all right #monsterdon

that shot of the completely motionless flight canopy with the background zooming by behind reminds me of nothing more than the 1980 Buck Rogers show

#monsterdon

The kids are alright

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

Yonggari, literally the only kaiju to ever understand the concept of evasion. #Monsterdon

Oh. Collateral damage, as expected. Glad they actually showed it this time!

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

That's right kids, if the driver hits the gas, the bus doesn't feel gravity at all over gaps.

#Monsterdon #Reptilian2001

Admit it fellow watchers, you're the cheering kids on the bus aren't you

#Monsterdon

@Binder never been invested in a character more than in HOLLY DAVIS #Monsterdon

Wheeee!

#monsterdon

The kids jumping and cheering in the shuttle bus has been the best part of this movie so far. They acted better than anyone else for their roles.

#Monsterdon

You are collateral damage, which is the best kind of damage. #Monsterdon

RE: https://sunny.garden/@jadebees/116553462695425769

Kaiju exposure is the #1 reason we can't afford car-centric cities. It's a matter of global security 🫡

#Monsterdon #Yonggary1999

Watch the collateral damage, we don't have the budget for too much rubble.

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

"Negative impact" is also exactly what this movie had #Monsterdon #Reptilian2001

The military stuff isn't *good*, but it's better than Campbell the mad paleontologist. And the so-far dropped subplot about the reporter. It's taken us an hour, but we've finally got to the *functional* schlock. Kiiiiinda thinking the script was padded here

#Monsterdon

I know Young Gary just woke up from being extinct, but getting outrun by a school bus is shameful

#Monsterdon

Love the cheering kids on the monorail #Monsterdon

I may not to be able to riff anymore. That bus scene did critical stun damage when the kids cheered. #Monsterdon

The fire breath sparks joy in me.
#Monsterdon

I wonder what happened to those two missiles earlier.

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

vipers? did he just say vipers?

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

Wait, did those F-16s just turn into MiGs? #Monsterdon

"I HAVE LOCK."
(misses)
#monsterdon #yonggary1999 #reptilian1999

This is definitely the military equivalent of quippy dialogue

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999 #Yonggary1999

lol the kids are alright

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

@aburka Well, even in 2026, we have a communications blackout going behind the moon, so it makes sense.

#Monsterdon

why are some of these cuts like 0.1 s long fucking lmao
#monsterdon

Damn kids, think this is an amusement park ride. #Monsterdon

alrighty full hour late because i was talking to my momma, what have i missed #monsterdon

See, that fun shot couldn't have happened without an elevated highway. Take that, urbanists.

#Monsterdon

You could've had one of those kids say "oh shit." at the end of that pregnant pause, screenwriter. It would've flown.

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

The children are pleased at the bridge's destruction.

#monsterdon

These bus kids are the best actors in this whole movie!
#monsterdon

"With The Frizz! NO WAY!"

#monsterdon

Oh no my model school bus. Oh phew. It's fine. #Monsterdon

@Ayyyydrew

Kids in bus: Didn't I see this in an MCU movie?

#Yonggary1999
#Monsterdon

"All our planes just crashed because some fool scoured them with an angle grinder" #Monsterdon #Reptilian2001

oh, the school children lived huh. too bad.

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

do they really bother announcing "this is not a drill" - like not if you are in a nuclear missile silo they don't - you never know if it is or not, you just push the buttons

#Monsterdon

*wobble* #monsterdon

You guys the persistent choice of camera angles that force us to confront the kaiju's lack of any junk is a fucking CHOICE

#monsterdon

#MonsterDon ok, the 90's monster destruction really makes me feel at peace, if I just mute the part where named characters are talking this movie is great

So bus drivers are better at evasive maneuvers than the military.
#monsterdon #yonggary1999 #reptilian1999

and now

LET'S FOCUS ON THE CHILDREN

#monsterdon

90’s bus pattern alert #monsterdon

#monsterdon The audio mixing is just as quality as the rest of it.

Some scenes are super loud, some are quiet. Whatever.

All right! Tom Cruise is here! #Monsterdon

You are not the authority of me!

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

Oh look it's all the kids of the production team!

#monsterdon

"VIpers going fangs out" sounds like code for being topless in their planes. #Monsterdon

I would be annoyed at this dialogue, but I gave up caring about it 10 minutes into the movie.
#Monsterdon

@klu9 Robert Loggia, according to IMDB (at least I think that was the character I'm thinking of)

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999 #Yonggary1999

#rootpost for #monsterdon

THATS a tight formation?
#reptilian1999 #monsterdon

Sgt Archie! Get him out of here. And bring in Sgt. Reggie, Veronica, and Jughead on the way back!

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

A bus full of kids? Is it also loaded with puppies? #monsterdon #yonggary1999 #reptilian1999

the disssskkkkk my precioussssss
#monsterdon

And the symmetrical soldiers being thrown by an explosion, it's like Wes Anderson directed a disaster movie

#monsterdon

all jokes aside I am loving this, it really is the archetypal #monsterdon flick

Bingo! #Monsterdon #Reptilian1999

I won't let you go! You have to stay here! Sergeant Archie, get him out of here!

#monsterdon

So, aliens are attacking and a giant monster is rampaging through the city, and the “experts” want to argue about who knew what? Typical.

#Monsterdon

naming the legally-non-infringing gas station "oilberg" was a pretty good one

#monsterdon

YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME.

#monsterdon #Yonggary1999

🕵️‍♀️⛏️🐊🐢🦎🐍🐉🦕🦖😱

Finally, a creature that will smash everything! Oilberg will finally have a freeway through NYC.. Oh...

Actually, you taking orders from the President makes me LESS likely to follow your orders. #Monsterdon

Heheh, Sergeant Archie. But Verooooonicaaaaaa~!

#Monsterdon

I assume the guys in cammo with the MANPADs are LAPD too?

#reptilian1999 #monsterdon

"if we make the action cuts all less than 1/2 a second long each, no one will notice how shitty they are"

Pity this isn't Chicago. I could make the riff:

Nuts on clark.

Nuts over clark.

Nuts across clark.

#monsterdon
#Yonggary1999

Yunggary is a sprinter of firy breath where Godzilla is a marathon breather. #Monsterdon

How rich, calling the professor ridiculous for talking about a prehistoric monster when you were literally just watching said prehistoric monster rampage through New York

#Monsterdon #Reptilian1999 #Yonggary1999

Eagle company! Excellent! Get the Helldivers in here.

#monsterdon

I still don't get it why the aliens need the CGI Godzilla for...
