Coming into #monsterdon late and it sounds like a storm is picking up outside so this will be fun

"Four days later, the outside temperature became bearable again. Too bad for us we'd all died of radiation sickness."

#Monsterdon

Wow they really fucked up their campsite

Leave no trace, you fools! Leave no trace!

#monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

@Taweret there they go on again about the giant mantis hunting our camp at night and when we go out, waiting to strike. I just want to make storms!
#Monsterdon

The experiment was not quite a success.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Wait … we have a narrator!? Where has he been until now? In the bathroom?

Good thing they had no wind when their weather thingies were launched. #monsterdon

Okay when are we going to get to the kaiju though. #Monsterdon

Did they say that the island was at fifty degrees before the start of the experiment? That's not just hot enough to make you cranky; it's lethal!

#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

This is an elaborate way to remove a wart #monsterdon

All the scientists doing Important Science Things and the reporter sent to cover it is chasing ladies :blobcheeky: #Monsterdon

hey look don't just release the solar iodine like that you need an environmental impact statement #monsterdon

Activate the ketchup and mustard towers! #MONSTERDON

Okay skipping ahead to where everyone else is. It's a Godzilla movie. I have seen this enough times that it's part of my DNA.
Fun with miinatures time.
#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

These are some great looking towers.

#Monsterdon

Should we be seeing this? #Monsterdon

Solar iodine?

That doesn't sound good...

#monsterdon

i'm getting big "exiled with an impossible mission to keep these guys from getting in the way" vibes. #monsterdon

"Blow it!"

Blowing it, sir! Crashing my career right now! #MONSTERDON

#monsterdon
we gotta blow up these things we don't understand.

I'm they showed up Godzilla but I could use a tad more

#Monsterdon

I'm surprised they got a freezing unit in this jungle. Usually thermal underwear'll prevent that. #MONSTERDON

Huh, silver iodide's actually used for cloud seeding, isn't it?

#monsterdon

so how come only one research team is responsible for making the entire world capable of growing crops and stuff and why do they have to do it on this island #monsterdon

@nev Always the best bit of these movies #monsterdon

@nev Yeah, they delivered nicely, even here.

#monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

#Monsterdon Tonight on 60 Minutes…secret tests on Pacific islands…human benefits or menace?

...The sun is ticking? Is Andy Rooney up there? #MONSTERDON

Look movie, if you're gonna have a sequence like this and it doesn't end in "Thunderbirds are Go!", I'm not interested.

#monsterdon

SON of 🐲
#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

@diazona She swam through a fissure into the hollow Earth and is hanging out with a giant ape #monsterdon

Countdown!

#monsterdon

I don't want to backtrack and lose synch with the timeline, but I could've sworn the professor had his pipe in his mouth upside down #Monsterdon

I'm still not sure what experiment is going on here

It may be better that way

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe It was a very real fear! Vonnegut wrote about this all the time.

(The freeze experiment reminds me of Ice-9, actually)

#Monsterdon

INDUSTRY! Sweaty men working long hours to get the job done! Smokestacks! Tape reels! Sputnik! #MONSTERDON

@jonny as much as i complain about this movie, i think it's the origin of some of my favourite godzilla music #Monsterdon

thirty four celcius? lord, i'd been irritable too. #yikes #monsterdon

I keep waiting for them to break into song. The music is demanding it!

#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

@moira@mastodon.murkworks.net Oh my gosh it really is! So adorable!

#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

Man. They are sciencing the CRAP out of this science. #monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

OK I have to give props to the swimming girl for hiding so quickly and thoroughly

#Monsterdon

It was a mistake to stop painting all the computer things blue

#Monsterdon

Temperature 78, get yer peanuts here! #monsterdon

Sput is GO

Nik is GO

#monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

mm, red plastic backgrounds and a weird white bubble thing. that's how you know they're doing SCIENCE. #monsterdon

I think someone switched the soundtrack with the one from The Sound of Music 2: Electric Boogaloo. #MONSTERDON

Oh, Rover from The Prisoner is also here. #Monsterdon

Epic "Starting at 10am" music. #monsterdon

*jazz hands*

#Monsterdon

Yes, the UN Agricultural Freeze Ray, worse than any nuclear bomb

#monsterdon

Turning things! And adjusting them! #Monsterdon

'balloon' is such a fun word

#monsterdon

ok the gershwin ripoff 'having fun at work' tune is real good #monsterdon

@jonny@neuromatch.social The exact same one. Internet Archive fans think alike, I guess?

#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

@yatsu @Taweret why don't you find a mate?
Mom, I don't want my head chopped off yet!
#Monsterdon

Aww. They got Rover all tied up. Free Rover! Free Rover! #monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

ROVER! #Monsterdon

#monsterdon the baked in subtitles on the archive copy I downloaded are white and disappear against all these dudes' shirts 😭

I'd complain about the overpopulation subplot, but this movie does predate the green revolution

#monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

Freeze any area of the world? #monsterdon

aw they got a lil sputnik

#monsterdon

The most important building on the island is candy-striped red and white to make it easy to distinguish if the monster is color-blind…

#monsterdon

I'm shipping Himbo Hawaiian Shirt Reporter × Giant Glowing Eyes Praying Mantis ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ #Monsterdon

Ah yes, overpopulation. After all, there's (frantic googling) almost three and a half billion people on Earth, clearly we can't support any more.

>_>

#MONSTERDON

Kind of wish we had a coolant thing now
#Monsterdon

"...we call it, Ice-9"

#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

@Taweret probably having his own Awkward Tropical Thanksgiving with his family. #monsterdon

@Taweret Fear Of Mantis Offstage #monsterdon

Where’s he going with that Sputnik?

#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

Bugs! Killem! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Cue: Busy music!

ok i got the ultragoji2 copy from archive.org and the total runtime is 1:26:03, what are other people looking at? #monsterdon

Sputnik alert

#monsterdon

How many changes of clothes did this reporter bring?

#monsterdon

i bet the giant mantis is doing something cool right now

#monsterdon

@srol oh dang <3

#monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

As we all know nothing grows in the South American Jungle. #monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

Nobody's complaining about the underwear salad, must be good #monsterdon

In Godzilla-verse, an unexpected lady is more surprising than an unexpected giant mantis.

#Monsterdon

If this were an episode of The X-Files that fussy guy would already have like five different alien parasites. #MONSTERDON

Little did they know in 1956 that the danger of food shortages wasn't that the earth couldn't sustain it, but climate change. Although they're talking about .. actually changing the climate?

#monsterdon

i wonder what the giant mantis is up to

#monsterdon

well SOMEBODY doesn't like crotch water. #monsterdon

#monsterdon This entire science expidition has some major "Old Navy Ad" vibes, or maybe the Geico send-up "New Clothes are fun!"

On the island, every meal is an awkward Thanksgiving.

#Monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

Tomorrow is e-day?
These guys take their drugs seriously.
#monsterdon

after a super fast no-nonsense first minute, we have settled into the domestic squabbles of a bunch of guys on an island with no clear purpose #monsterdon

Do I have to keep my life jacket on the whole time?

#Monsterdon

1 woman, 9 guys. What could go wrong?

#monsterdon

"Don't be stupid" That guy's just a walking HR violation. #monsterdon #SonOfGodzilla

#monsterdon 20/10 so far

#monsterdon "YOU SAW A GIRL?!!"

Taking pictures of stranger lady while having a gun strapped to your back isn't creepy behaviour at all mister #Monsterdon

♫ UNDER PRESSURE ♪ #MONSTERDON

I covet that multi-pocketed yellow shirt. #Monsterdon

Get my luggage boys!

#Monsterdon

@jonny @lytta I have the Criterion and they are just starting dinner
