It's an even odder name for a movie tbf #Monsterdon #Solarbabies
Title drop that makes no sense
The movie is lampshading its own silly title. OK. I'll buy it #Monsterdon
Face it Solarbabies, THE BUMS LOST
Richard Jordan is having a marvellous time #monsterdon
'Behavior determines existence'
Was this movie really made way back?
It's not contemporary?
They said the title!
#Monsterdon #SolarBabies
Sorry, the team name is the one named Solarbabies in this?
They used the movie name!!! #Monsterdon
Oh this is Animal House. #Monsterdon

Very important to avoid any emotion sneaking in when you order people to appear with enthusiasm
Have they thought about wearing stillsuites?
#monsterdon
It says on the Web that TUG is played by Peter DeLuise, who variously was one of John Lithgow's character's physics students on "Third Rock from the Sun" and wrote/directed/{executive produced} various instances of the television "Stargate" franchise.
it's the coen brothers guy!
No one esCAPES from orphanage thirTEEN
Appear with enthusiasm for vibe coding assembly. #Monsterdon
Bad guy cutscene!
He'll never find a french fried frog leg in this desert, why is he even here?
#monsterdon so there's poor kids at the orphanage, and rich nazi kids at... a place that looks pretty much the same as the orphanage. Hmm
My school was like that...
Rubbles everywhere, but there are trails suitable for roller skates, totally believable! #monsterdon #solarbabies
Doc Hopper's fallen on hard times in the future. #monsterdon #Solarbabies
Charles Durning, you make shabby look good. #Monsterdon
Programming assembly? On top of the harshness of the environment they don't even have compilers anymore? Man this is a dystopia!
Tonight's badly worn tie award goes to ...
Suddenly its the movie "Holes"
despite the apparent collapsedness and postapocalypticism of the era, children get their first sphere roughly twice as early as they do now. the onset of roller-apocalypse was, if anything, positive across a range of UN and world bank approved metrics #monsterdon
#monsterdon It was found in water, so does it breathe? Situational awareness is not a part of the dystopian hydraulic-empire futureβ¦
@ricci which one? the heretofore deaf-kid is already getting on my nerves π‘
"Do you breathe?"
It was underwater when you found it, wasn't it? Maybe it's a fish and it is dying.
Oh Jamiβ¦
*sigh*
@ramsey@phpc.social Kid, Iβm pretty sure that chest isnβt air tight.
if this kid and the glowing orb skate-fly past a full moon I'm gonna be mad
oh yeah the wife from Twister is in this
Better poke some holes in the sphere so that it can breath. #Monsterdon
do you want M&Ms?
Fuck. Pronunciation of "Bodhi" as "Bo-da-aiee" going to irk me rest of the movie.
You found it under water kid. What do you think? #monsterdon #Solarbabies
sigh so what did i miss. why are these people in prison? or it's an orphanage? i think i saw mention of orphanage earlier
πΆ Bodhisattva, would you take me by the hand πΆ #Monsterdon
so this is like...Digimon Tamers and Guilmon but it's an orb
Just gonna hide Sisu's dragon gem in my toybox for later
Do you like turtles?
I choose to imagine this is a sequel to Class of 1999,.

No one puts Orb in the corner.
These identifying numbers are surprisingly short. Did these kids adopt the identifier system first? #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon Oh, Uncle Owen's moisture farm.
Jan-sport still making backpacks in the 41st.
@moira "DO NOT, MY FRIENDS, BECOME ADDICTED TO PRODUCT"
Itβs all about smooth paving for the Solarbabies
I know when *I* find a mysterious glowing orb in a cave my first instinct is to assume it can talk
"Do you like air?"

We need to escape from the authorities. Let's skate in a straight line with lights on our shoes!
#monsterdon
Aw, man, I'm always picked last for water privilege distributions. #Monsterdon
I can hear too, kiddo. Pipe down lol.
Brian Eno should have done the cave music.
Please child, I've been unpondered for SOOOOO long....

What could have beenπ€¦
John Boorman, writer/director/producer famous for Deliverance (1972), Zardoz (1974), and Excalibur (1981), was approached to direct this film. Upon reading the screenplay, he "winced repeatedly" and asked BrooksFilms for permission to "overhaul" it.
Mel Brooks was unwilling to delay production and 'fired' Boorman, replacing him with veteran *choreographer* Alan Johnson.
if there's a subplot where this kid befriends the glowing orb I'm gonna be angry
Hrm, the kid was careful to call them E-Cops earlier. Will we see the A-Cops later? The C-Cops?

@ramsey@phpc.social OMG! Is there a Doctor Who tie-in here? Is this the Face of Bo?!
Uh... This kid being deaf wasn't a plotpoint up until now, right?
Whatever you do, DO NOT shake shake shake your Bodhi!
First heal's free, kid. #Monsterdon
This & Magic Crystal came out the same year. But Magic Crystal had Cynthia Rothrock & Richard Norton

Spider egg sack is my first thought
Hooo. I love a man with showy, pleated lapels and anger issues.
Kind of a sparkly cave. Think that Jareth the Goblin King lives down here?
Rad as hell headlamps on that kid's rig. Wait. Hang on. Is this kid magic? #Monsterdon
Raul Julia as Bison vibes #monsterdon
Oh right Loganβs partner!
I too disassociate like a deer in headlights when a minecart briskly rolls towards me at a completely avoidable speed
Well, everyone with "Terrible Dialogue" on their bingo card is already one square closer to a win.
#monsterdon Living in an Amish Dystopian Paradiiiiiise
Let's hear the guy dressed like a Nazi out
Repurposed Goonies set?
Oh no, how will I listen to the synth soundtrack of my life now?
#monsterdon lucky those caves have perfectly smooth, rollerbladable floors

I'm surprised that roller derby didn't prepare that child more for the rigors of mining. #Monsterdon
