"I'm a buyer, i never buy an item for itself"
Capitalism as a personality has never looked good #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7
@hollie lol but from what I understand that's actually kind of true, pilots train for all kind of crazy situations so nothing fazes them
Also they know the plane can probably fly quite a way with the tail on fire π
@klu9 Yes. I am getting slightly miffed about this bait & switch. At least other schlock tried to have a fun monster. Or anything. Even if itβs just a βmagneticβ monster. #monsterdon
Poor Ratigan. Clueless. #Monsterdon
BLOOD RUST
If you're not sure, just turn the fucking plane around. Jesus Christ.
At least this one challenged him.
#monsterdon
"Get busy will you, you don't have much time."
"THEN STOP INTERRUPTING ME."
"i'm a buyer, a buyer never buys anything for herself" what kind of riddle social convention shit is this #monsterdon
#Monsterdonπ πβπ« π π½ π±
uh oh the bubbling goo is bubbling and gooing the cargo hold
@srol@mellified.men "oh no, i'll have to file my report from the beach'"
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7
Elaine, why did you give in when he showed you an "internal security" card? You were doing so well with "give them nothing".
#monsterdon Do you want a pillow, blanket, and a happy ending?
More dramatic music as she announces she βdoes touch it up a bitβ.
Very appropriate.
Oh not only is there a lounge on the plane but she's traveling without identification.
I concur with whomever said it before: this is almost certainly a DC-4.
@Violinknitter With FUNGUS #monsterdon
From the files of Police Squad!
Ah the 50s. Put on your most uncomfortable clothing and travel.
Elaine, future secretary at a privacy firm
Excuse me, stewardess? Iβd like to hold interviews with all the attractive young women in the lounge. Thank you. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7
The [dramatic orchestral music] subtitle for that sting was underselling it.
Elaine Frohman, mother of Abe Frohman, Sausage KING of Chicago. #monsterdon
"But why should I?"
Good question! It is ALWAYS shit the fuck u... oh, dang. well.
@Crazypedia The power of Vincent Price
Froman? The sausage KING of Chicago?
Ominous fungal overgrowth #Monsterdon
"I'm not answering any questions. Am I being detained?"
Only one way to defeat the space fungus: cook a gigantic risotto #monsterdon
Rattigan? I swear he said his name was Rattigan.
I love how calm pilots are portrayed to be, in just any situation at all
"The entire tail is on fire? Well son that'll just take care of itself if you wait long enough <draws on pipe>, go on now, sit back down."
find you a girl that got that alien fungus
#monsterdon
Hey dude, now that she is definitely in this plane, MAYBE SHOUT THAT YOU HAVE TO SHOW YOURSELF BECAUSE OF AN ALIEN SPORE!!
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7
Looking for **A GIRL**
@strangefour OMG Rattigan just told the air crew they're carrying Typhoid Mary! #SpaceMonsterX7 #Monsterdon
"typhoid Mary"
yeah let's not panic anybody or anything.
#Monsterdonπ πβπ« π π½ π±
hey now I think that panic *IS* the biggest worry
@randy_s I was thinking DC-7, but you may be right.
Whaaa. "clear the lounge"?
#Monsterdon
Wait, was that guy smoking a pipe in the cockpit?
A thousand Typhoid Marys!? That so many Daredevil villains in one plane.
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7
Tobacco smoke keeps the bolshevism away

BTW, my Bingo card has "Kiss" on it. Does his attempt to kiss his ex earlier count, I wonder?
Did she spray some of the hair dye on her brows too? #monsterdon
So fancy that they had lounges up in the air back them. Nowadays you are lucky to have any hand baggage without paying extra for it
#monsterdon
#spacemasterx7
Push to talk? First uber, now they have Discord?
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7
"Keep it down, kid, don't you know you're going to DIE OF MUSHROOMS!!!"
Could you just imagine asking a stuardess on a plane about other passengers, then saying you needed to question them and getting it without ever actually showing a badge or anything?
Again, make it make sense.
Also, Captain of the aircraft look like Richard Nixon to anyone else?
#monsterdon Wait, she was under a pseudonym, and now not, and then she will be, because that was a flub.
THEYRE GOING TO A LOUNGE
ON A PLANE
THIS IS TRULY SCIENCE FICTIOn
#monsterdon
Chekhov's cute child.
"Are there any good-looking brunettes? I'd like to talk to each of them one by one."
"If it's necessary."
"Oh, it's necessary, alright. So... necessary."
@SordidAmok hey, he saw an opportunity and took it. #Respect #monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7
Fortunately, they will be able to smoke the fungus to death
oh no puppy is going to die.
As an early version of βPlanes, Trains, & Automobiles,β it does leave something to be desired. #Monsterdon
Oh, wait, one of the pilots is smoking. #Monsterdon
Smoking a pipe in the cockpit, as you do
"clear the lounge, we gotta give all the ladies A HAND" #Monsterdon
"...what's a tweed like you doing in a place like this"
No, no, no, it's Ratigan, not Roger. #monsterdon
There is ~16 minutes left of this movie.
#Monsterdon
He keeps asking about good-looking brunettes to blondes and I think they are too well-bred to call him on it #monsterdon
She's lookin' at this guy like "Oh you silly boy with your tweed fetish!"
#monsterdon shit, I think that IS a DC-4? Don't order the halibut, lady, I don't care how good it was on last week's flight...
while typing: The 1950's when a random dude could just hop on a plane at the last second, ask a FA for PII about the women on the plane, then have them set up speed dating with them, no questions asked.
@srol It was a different time.
The DC-7 had a much longer range than I expected. 5600 miles, cruising speed of 360MPH.
I think a DC-4 with range enough for a non stop flight.
#monsterdon
I guess "good looking brunette" really nails it down.
@wrog @RobynGoodfellow And he didn't get a chance to tell his officers he was flying off, either! #Monsterdon #SpaceMonsterX7
Look, the main thing this movie has going for it is that Dr. Mustache isnβt in it anymore
speed dating in the lounge
All these boring spores, at least this one did stuff fun... #Monsterdon
That kid looks stoned #monsterdon
Ah, the days when stewardesses must be single (and maybe still had to be be nurses?).
Not only do we have to find someone who can fly this plane, we have to make sure they didn't have fish for dinner.
Travel music! #Monsterdon
Iβll take that blanket π΄ #monsterdon
Pilots have radios. In case you wanted to call them.
@GramrgednAngel oh I guess that makes more sense then
They got loads of cold case files in the back of missing women having small imperfections
Thatβs roughly how it went last time I flew out of LAX. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7
"...tweed coats, eh? Haven't heard of that fetish before."
i want more blob monsters
The locations and sets in the movie have been kind of impressive. More than I usually expect from pulpy 50s schlock. #monsterdon
*and* they're going to leave whats-his-name on there stuck flying to Hawaii?
@RobynGoodfellow No, I guess everyone on the plane will get spored now. #Monsterdon #SpaceMonsterX7
We might be facing a world wide space pandemic, but whatever you do don't delay that plane!
"They are holding the plane for you."?!?!?!
This movie is science fiction.
#Monsterdon
What type of plane is that...
#monsterdon
Why did twink cop not just STOP the plane and set everyone on fire?
Watching her pack was compelling...
Side note: let's bring back pillbox hats

Wow what a used coffee can that plane is
#monsterdon
The first mild obstruction in this guy's path and he immediately resigns himself to going to Hawaii. I probably would too #monsterdon
