Guilala seems like a “fun guy”

#miru #thexfromouterspace #monsterdon

They should awaken the Spece Master Fungus X from Oxnard, to battle it!

#monsterdon #wrongX

"I don't know what that sound is... but it's got a pretty groovy beat!!!"

#monsterdon #wrongX

Today i learned "ii-na" means "This is groovy"

#monsterdon #wrongX

did the western astronaut just propose to the japanese astronaut? do we have lesbians in space? i would like to have lesbians in space

#monsterdon #WrongSpaceMaster

Why is the other dude at his own table? Is he lower-class or something?

#monsterdon #wrongX

Proposition #monsterdon

"That was a close call! Only one death!"

#monsterdon #wrongX

That movie defied so many of my expectations.

#monsterdon

"It's a plane...it flies in the sky, like a bird!"

"It's a ship, it has a lounge, we turn this boat around!!!"

and then the all get gassed in a trailer. The End

#monsterdon

they should flag down the UFO. according to naval rules, it has to help them out.

#monsterdon #wrongX

@Lazarou @LingLass They just have to spray on a little hair dye and poof! everything's fine #monsterdon

she's making popcorn at a time like this?

#monsterdon #wrongX

@apLundell @moira See, that's where we differ because I would have preferred "The Good Looking Brunette Who Wasn't" #monsterdon

Loving the big colorful orbital diagrams on the wall.

#Monsterdon Double Feature

@randy_s

#Monsterdon

It's unfair that we can't vote for them all.

@rebeld I think the monkey should get to claim the name, then. Compensation. #Monsterdon

team the space master was the rocket they launched

no, really, that's what they called it, i know it sounds like it was named by a five year old writing about a ship launched by emperor ming

but it was the rocket

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@CactuarJoe It was the name of the space probe, it wasn't mentioned past the first 5 minutes of the film. And even then it had extra numbers in it's name.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon That's it... the end... not terrible, not enough coffee wenches…

@combatwombat @miru i dunno, i was surprised how much i enjoyed Space Master X-7. I mean the title was terrible but i enjoyed how it veered into procedural (shitty detective work though) #monsterdon

was expecting Magnum PI to emerge from the chopper.

#monsterdon #wrongX

@brooke I dunno actually

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@neia @wrog semi-gloss at best

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

The end‽ But what happened‽ #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Now I want to write a rust program called "Blood Rust." I've got the name. I'll just have to work backwards from there.

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Finishing up a little late, please don't spoil the ending of the movie for me.

Whaddya mean there's no ending?

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #wrongX

He said the word! "MIRU!!!"

@SordidAmok it's okay there was no end

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

@JoeWynne if they had the money for another 10 minutes they could have had a 'Government Conspiracy' plot as well #monsterdon

The Tubi auto-play I got is "The Flying Disc Man from Mars". Which is ridiculous, I mean Sony never made anything that flew, much less on Mars. #monsterdon

Too much beginning, not enough ending.

#Monsterdon

Guilala's theme goes with anything.

#monsterdon #wrongX

@pngwen That one motorcycle cop was served coffee! Not sure he got to drink it, though.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

That was the meh'iest movie that ever meh'ed. It was so mid it defies description.

#monsterdon

@CardboardRobot Laughing my head off at the reactions to the abrupt ending of #SpaceMasterX7 #Monsterdon

The best likable character was Typhoid Laura. The best dislikeable character was Mustache Scientist; he was a jerk but you were supposed to hate him. The best minor characters were the hazmat suit guys who were flamethrowering each other.

Most other characters were non-notable. The most notable neutral character was the ever present narration that made up a quarter of the film.

#monsterdon

I SAID, GET THIS MOTHERFUCKING FUNGI OFF THIS MOTHERFUCKING PLANE

Thanks friends see you next time!!! #monsterdon #spacemasterx7

@kcarr2015 @nhgeek I'm always saying this #monsterdon

Is that truncated grunting sound supposed to be coming from the fungus? Or is that some kind of weird audio encoding error on the YouTube version of the film?

#monsterdon

Heck of a way to end a movie, wow, haha

#Monsterdon

Wait, where's the resolution? Is oxnard just next on the fungus list?

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

my spidey senses are tingling about an abrupt ending being imminent

#Monsterdon "try to keep this stuff contained to the baggage compartment" -- me, hyping myself up to meet new people

People should wear suits and ties. And smoke on planes. That'd be nice

#monsterdon

wow, those are some tall buses! (^_^)

#monsterdon

@bstacey Uh-oh. Improved direction, editing, and writing is breaking out. The next thing you know, we'll be crowdsourcing production for "SpaceMaster 2026."

#monsterdon #spacemasterX7

All beautiful people please disrobe immediately!

#monsterdon

Hm, actual footage of a belly landing

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Those decontamination showers are going to be crowded.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

Give me a vector, Victor!

@nhgeek Did they have money in the first place to run out of, I wonder

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

The two-handed scream AND the creature outside the window! #Monsterdon

FUNGUS of 20,000 feet!

#monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Cigarettes on an airplane!! I'm not sure the luxury of a lounge area would be enough to balance the possibility of having to breathe someone else's tobacco smoke recirculated for the entire duration of a transatlantic flight.

#monsterdon

Anyway, we land the plane and then send all the passengers off to the decontamination busses, including Army Man. We watch some assorted busses drive away escorted by assorted classic cars. The music turns it knob up maybe not to "11" but at least to 7 or 8. Then the movie ends.

#monsterdon

Get the ship turned around.

It's a plane

#monsterdon

I have an M.S. degree… Master of Space

#spacemasterx7 #monsterdon

There is only 1 compartment on a DC3, there's a front and a back. That's it.

#monsterdon

Protip: If your commercial airliner lands at an air-force base, you're having a bad day.
#Monsterdon

Ox nard

Was it actually named after the nard of an ox?
Can't focus on the movie

#Monsterdon 🍄 #SpaceMasterX7

#Monsterdon

This is my internal security card.
Respect my authority!

@Violinknitter Does leather have protein? A lot of the old suitcases were made of leather. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

After turning the airplane around and flying for a bit, the Blood Rust monster starts oozing out of the cargo comparment so we evacuate a passenger room and seal it in. But then it pushes its way outside of the airplane and starts enveloping the windows, and so everyone screams.

The pilots try to do an emergency landing, which must be a belly landing because the slime monster has enveloped their landing gear.

#monsterdon

@apLundell I wonder if that would qualify it as a scavenger

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

I need you to land the plane in a bucket of hydrochloric acid
#monsterdon

Oxnard

They may want to refresh the name and marketing for that town

#Monsterdon 🍄 #SpaceMasterX7

@cd0 #monsterdon

Well of course, they had to have a place to go smoke!

wait why is it a good idea to bring the deadly fungus back to a super populated city instead of sending it on to an isolated island in the middle of the ocean? #monsterdon

@SordidAmok 50 SF is just fun like that

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"oh hey it's me"
and with that the entire plot is resolved #monsterdon

Exciting shuffling-around-in-the-aisle-of-the-plane action

#Monsterdon

The constant droning really reminds me that we're on a plane

#Monsterdon

Our passengers are upset that the airplane is turning around, but Army Man has looked into the baggage compartment and found more fungus monster.

Army Man asks why Typhoid Laura ran away, and she explains that she didn't want to be involved in a scandal. He reassures her by saying her anonymity will be kept.

#monsterdon

he could have just asked if any of these ladies knew Dr Palmer, none of them seem to have a good poker face.

#monsterdon

Is it good or bad if the fungus attacks now and they crash in the ocean? Can the space spores swim? Are they allergic to salt water?
#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX-7

Search the brunettes for fungal infections and get back to me

#monsterdon

@klu9 It's all about filling-up the theaters? or drive-in parking lots? Selling popcorn and soda?

Apparently, they didn't care the sold it as sci-fi with a name like that

#monsterdon

lol, can't believe how the sartorial the process of elimination has become...

#monsterdon

yes fungus blobs. more fungus blobs!

#monsterdon

Nice sass from the buyer

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon🍄 🍄‍🟫 🚀 👽 😱

none of those questions would identify the right woman in this case

@gblues @OldRustBucket lol, that little bird... #monsterdon

"...I touch it up.... WITH SPORES!!!"

#monsterdon

OMG, the orchestral sting after "I must admit I do touch it up a bit" made me HOWL with laughter. #monsterdon

luggage fungus. almost as hard to get rid of as bed bugs

#monsterdon

You can tell this is science fiction because there's a child on the plane but they're not screaming their head off. #Monsterdon

Huh. I wonder who that’s for.

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Hm, 4 man crew. (Though were 5 man crews a thing at that time?)

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

"We will hopefully maintain this altitude for most of the flight, unless someone's goo thwarts our plans"

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

I'm sorry, clear the lounge?!?! #monsterdon

So is this plane a DC-4? DC-6?

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

#monsterdon A day late, a dollar short. The hotel manager is a creep. He knows way too much, and the room has a disturbing echo.

We get an extended takeoff sequence with pictures of the airliner from the ground, from the passenger cabin and from the four-man cockpit, and then from outside at night.

And then a sequence where the flight attendees go down the hallway offering people blankets. And then an inflight instructions read by one of the stewardess.

I'm thinking this might have been included because air passenger service was still pretty novel in the 1950s.

#monsterdon

So they're not going to ground the plane? Good grief. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

again using "good-looking" as the only descriptor
#monsterdon

Ah the days when they would hold planes for people

#Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

Ok wait! Why is she running again? #Monsterdon

He should really answer the phone with ‘talk to The Hand’. #Monsterdon #SpaceMasterX7

#monsterdon We've got the #SuddenStringSection. They've finally showed up... lazy layabouts!
