Oh! Look, they did the akira motorcycle power slide! #monsterdon
Say what you want, at least they had a special effects budget for this one.
It's only one cop so... split up #Monsterdon #MessageFromSpace1978
Did this movie just end with 2 takes of the same scene?
Irene: "You survived."
"Yup."
Irene: "You're alive?"
"Yup."
Space trains would have also been an acceptable answer. #monsterdon
Ok, this is interesting. I saw the English dub of this. I'm pretty sure they didn't dub the English actors in it. In the Japanese version the English actors are definitely (badly) dubbed over in Japanese it seems. I guess you get a dub no matter what. π
Yeah there's absolutely some "we're stealing Star Wars music and adding some different fiddly bits so it's different" going on with the soundtrack. #Monsterdon #MessageFromSpace1978
#monsterdon uchu senkan flying dutchman?
@brooke the movie itself said fuck you, movie and i can't imagine a better ending for this "film"
I bet that boxing match is still going on.
The costumes and the models are in several classes above that last film we just watched.
#Monsterdon #MessageFromSpace1978
i couldn't hack it and closed the window with like 10 minutes of nonsense to go, but i understand it eventually did stop happening, so i guess that's something i can say for this movie.
Did they lift John Williams straight up from Star Wars for this? (Not quite)
#Monsterdon #MessageFromSpace1978
The problem with dubs is I can't keep up with the subtitle AND #Monsterdon...
#Monsterdon well i hope something wrapped up the plot cause i got distracted by a carbon monoxide detector that decided it was expired and was gonna let me know once every minute or so

Content Update
ποΈLater @paco will send out a word cloud and data analysis for tonight's watch party. Who got the most reactions?
π’ Missed it and want to watch later? Check in with your therapist first, and, if approved, @combatwombat will post a link for a replay at your leisure. We recommend watching it at work.
#monsterdon I like that the Toei double feature opens with the production company sitting the french horn player who did "Leia's Theme" just a year earlier out on a stage and saying " Well go on, you know why we hired you"
At least that wasn't Birdemic.
@LingLass @Taweret @Cherizilla @JoeWynne that almost feels like an insult to cheese
This sounds very similar to the Capricorn one theme. But also Tron.
What the actual hell was that? This might really have been the worst movie Iβve ever seen! #Monsterdon #StarOdyssey1979
@davesdogmaggie that's a quality shirt idea :D
It's movies like that that remind me that half of the fun of #Monsterdon is watching other people's horrified reactions to what we're watching.
@paco He's the guy who made the sword clanging sound?
An overly catchy Casio tune and some super embarrassing plot lines. A good nightβs #Monsterdon viewing! Thanks @Taweret, @Cherizilla and @JoeWynne for this campily derivative cheese.
@pngwen @Taweret Iβm uncertain about βnowhere to go from here but up,β itβs not really in the #Monsterdon wheelhouse ππ€£
I like how the poster for Message From Space said "HELP ME"
it knows what's up
So is this going to be the story of the quest for the magic space chestnut?
#Monsterdon #MessageFromSpace1978
Lord Kess of Koba
#monsterdon so in the end, the auction that mentions slaves A LOT is still going on, and two of our team of heroes are going to buy their own planet, presumably full of creatures they themselves can enslave?

Scheduling Note
π You can head over now to https://miru.miyaku.media for part 2 of a double feature.
ποΈ Next week, follow #MonsterdonAlert to see a poll where we vote on the next film.
So who's throwing up the "Was Star Odyssey the worst #Monsterdon movie" poll?
Even the movie ended w a "fuck this movie'
it's a good thing the Miru post music is good, because i was a little iffy on the whole "continuing to live" thing after that atrocious excuse for a waste of film. the only person who seemed less interested in it that us was the editor, so i hope he got paid enough to take some really good drugs at least.
Trqma teams are standing by on the #monsterdon hashtag tonight. Stay tuned to @miru@social.miyaku.media for more #Monsterdon #MessageFromSpace1978
So they fucked off back to the auction house I guess, where they bought sex parts for the robots? I swear to all the gods, I have no idea. I'm pretty sure the Owlbear burned out a few neurons on that one.
Anyway, thanks for making it fun again, fam. Y'all are the best. The Owlbear is beat, though, and has to bow out.
Take care of each other. Be kind, spread love, stand in a heroic pose for like, no reason.
Goodnight.
Thank goodness I was too bored to pay attention. That would have been truly painful.
da da da dat dat dat EAT IT, MOVIE!
I enjoyed it. Thereβs something seriously wrong with me.
Star Odyssey.
That movie fucked off into a couple of robots.
For as horny as this film was , they couldn't even get kissing right.
WIERD FILM. Thanks, @Taweret and the rest of you incredibly powerful probers for mocking this dreck together..
did #monsterdon break mastodon.social?
And there it is, folks the patented and trademark abrupt ending.
Sweet XML Jesus, not even the jaunty little synthesizer soundtrack could save that. Thank you, @Taweret for allowing us to share the pain, and @miru for the stream. #Monsterdon
Please #MessageFromSpace1978 cleanse my palette "where the fantasy's are real and the reality is fantastic. "
#Monsterdon #SpaceOdyssey1979
This movie has only one redeeming quality: the music is not the worst!
#monsterdon #starodyssey
Capitalism....saves(?) the day?
Huh :what:
#monsterdon
anyway it's not an Odyssey unless it feels like it was 20 years long #StarOdyssey #monsterdon
Sweet release! Yes! We made it!
I guess all I can say is that there is nowhere to go from here but up.
Thank you for hosting @Taweret, and I hope everyone has a great week!
end at least. Can we try to forget we ever watched it?
#monsterdon
#starodyssey1979
#monsterdon you end with a freezeframe on blurry nothing in the middle of a line of dialogue, fuck you movie
And the movie ends mid-sentence. Good riddance. That was a rough one. Thanks (I think) to @Taweret for hosting. Have a great week out there Beautiful mutants. #monsterdon #StarOdyssey
Thanks everyone for another nightmare hellmovie!
#monsterdon
#starodysessy
Wait, Sean and Bridget were getting auctioned off and I looked away and The End?
#Monsterdon Wait, so they sold earth to a different alien slaver?
It's great that they get to keep half the profits, but how is that a happy ending?
The Kodak Corporation later issued a statement disavowing any knowledge of or association with this movie.
IT'S OVER.
This has been a watch thread of Star Odyssey. Apparently they wasted money buying real film to make this movie.
@Louisa almost certainly with strangely blinking lightsβ¦π
#monsterdon
well I am completely defeated
thanks for coming everyone! As always big thanks to our host @Taweret and to everyone else who makes our Sunday nights great!
And I hate this music so much too.
Monsterdon, that was a true stinker π€’ #Monsterdon #SpaceOdyssey1979
π¦#MONSTERDON Goodbye!
This was such a mess. A very very long mess. But all of you in the Real-Time Film Analysis Squad kept me from getting BRAIN LOCK! Thank you!
β€οΈ Thank you very much @Taweret for hosting tonight's Italian Deviation! You can't save us masochists from ourselves.
π ±οΈ and thanks @miru for your stream which I used again tonight!
This theme is representative of my mental health after watching this movie.
OK I know we're no stranger to abrupt endings, but cutting off in the middle of a word of dialogue is a choice π
I hope this soundtrack is on Spotify, because I don't use Spotify.
And in an uncharacteristic moment of kindness the movie cuts itself off mid-sentence #Monsterdon #StarOdyssey1979
...so the alien escaped with almost no prisoners, but was still able to make a bit of money?
And Earth could just get invaded again?
Well that was just.... #Monsterdon
It can't even end properly.
wait, so what?
That was a waste of perfectly good film stock. At least it's over.
So that was weird. #Monsterdon #StarOdyssey
#Monsterdon π π« πͺ π½οΈοΈ ποΈοΈ π±
#StarOddyssey1979
thank goodness
Oh thank the maker! #monsterdon
WAIT FUCK IT'S OVER?
Wait- they still bought Earth?
#monsterdon
#starodysessy
Wait credits what we're free? we can leave now ?!
#Monsterdon #SpaceOdyssey1979
All of life results from this primal auction of worlds. #Monsterdon
once again cut off mid dialogue because the editor had enough before even we did
Wait. Thatβs the end? They won?
So we're back to the auction where people don't know how auctions work?
And so ends another #Monsterdon with the fabulous film, #StarOdyssey1979. Our thanks to @Taweret and everyone who joined the fun tonight, and remember #Monsterdoners: I'm sorry our suicide pact was a failure.
I thought Tilt was suicidal because they couldnβt sleep so Tilt couldnβt dream of Tilly
The robots are getting shafted..
Wait did Irene just movie on to Laramie like Holly never existed? #Monsterdon #StarOdyssey1979
Where was that 600mil when toast face was bidding 100?
#Monsterdon #SpaceOdyssey1979
This movie makes me hate the concept of movies #monsterdon
Tilt and Tilly get upgrades! Theyβre getting screwed.
Oh good more auctions. #monsterdon
Oh dear gods it's over.
