because it's what Nietsczhse would have done.
lol @ "Little Bruno"
Assistive devices exist, sir.
"Alec, let me go with you. We can live in the swamp, eat fungus and make swamp babies!"
Money on "He fucks off into the Swamp" ending
The sword in the bone(head)
#Monsterdon
Did they just have the Sword lying around in Props and went with it?
What is this evil lair with a secret hot spring? #monsterdon
Bruno turned into a court jester??

Craven's Biggest Regret:
An underwater chase through flooded tunnels had to be dropped.
The completion bond company acted like jerks the whole production and demanded that scenes be cut from the third act to stay on schedule and under budget.
You'd think most people would realize that turning a man into . . . whatever that was . . . tends to kill a party, but Jourdan nonetheless seems disappointed. #Monsterdon
Based on what the formula does, I assume that if you give it to Arcane, he transforms into a baguette.
@SRLevine @plaidtron3000 all the missing the energy goes into the wolf dimension (or the swamp dimension, in the case of this #monsterdon movie).
This special low-cut captive-prisoner evening wear is suitable for being bound to a chair at the banquet table AND being shackled in the dungeon.
It's the fashion statement today's woman is looking for.
I must report that I completely zone out whenever the evil rich guy in this movie gives his evil villain speeches. They seem pretty generic for evil speeches.
The formula is so amazing it even shrunk the white turtleneck!
#monsterdon
and here is our lovely dinner hostage
What is this, the 5th time she's had to run away and get captured by these gator survivalist fuckers?
Swamp Thing standing there wistfully like "I wish I still had a penis. Oh well."
She travels with a lot of dry clothes. I'll give her that. #Monsterdon
Why are you bathing in the swamp?!?!
#Monsterdon
Turns out all we need to do to make men better at responding to sexual violence was . . . uh, turn them into swamp things? #Monsterdon
makeup department in full tailspin after they just decided to keep in the shot where the swamp things eyes are clearly pink and not green #monsterdon
Whoah what! Did Swamp Thing just swamp-plant-magic Jude back from the dead!?
How did Holland learn that he could do that? When, exactly? Eukaryotic instinct??
[swamp thing eats the book]
Oh my god swamp this villain already thing this dialogue is unbearable
That guy with the sidearm grenade throws should've tried out for baseball. Bet he could've done some work in the Tigers 'pen.
I feel like we don't get that many Wilhelm screams on #Monsterdon, but hey, there we are
Right, he's invulnerable to bullets. Like a plant.
Dudes, dudes, dudes, if you still had twigs on your hats none of this would be happening
Sneaky Thing sneaks up on gravy seals
The doll thing on the boat is 50% cute 50% scary
I want to know what the gas station boy's backstory is. Is he missing his family? He seems to have seen some shit but might be a survivor.
Anyway, he takes her on a boat ride to the ruined research camp cabin. She tells him to be careful and he seems cautious but says he can handle himself (in more of a survivor way then an action hero way).

The guy who owned the limo used in the filming saw the stunt driver practicing aggressively for a dramatic u-turn.
π€― "He just totally flipped out, 'That was not in our contract!'"
yes please! cut to swamp thing doing swamp thing things and don't cut away!!!! #monsterdon
Oh _wow_, Swamp Thing tearing the roof off that SUV and then... it just kind of floats away like a balloon..? I think we were supposed to think that he threw it, but the effect didn't quite pan out there. π€£
That rubber Swamp Thing suit just gets better every time we see it. Majestic.
#monsterdon She's not super smart.
Isn't she supposed to be some kind of scientist? Or some kind of professional?
I didn't actually catch it.
ABDOMINAL SNOWMAN
creature from the swamp lagoon
Percussive maintenance remains undefeated. #Monsterdon
"Hey people!" falls over
OK lady you are not doing the anti-sexism cause many favours here.
Hey, Jude.
For you kids out there, there used to be these things called "pay phones" in fixed location out in the middle of f'in' nowhere. #Monsterdon #SwampThing1982
THAT'S what this movie's missing! A soundtrack by AC/DC!!! #MaximumSwampThingDrive
This guy has Columbo villain energy
We leave the swamp, and we're into the mansion house. What are the odds he removes another layer of face?
MAN ON FIRE INTO SWAMP! #monsterdon
#monsterdon Good thing the bad guys are terrible shots, or this movie would be over right now.
I love the commandos with ivy crowns. It's like "let's penetrate the command shed then hit up the Ren Faire later..."
#MONSTERDON
Quoting Nietzsche, really? lmao
Full face mask hell yea
Face mask reveal! Wow! Love it! #monsterdon
This is the 80's, wouldn't that have been pressure treated wood? Imbued with chemicals?
"He could throw a mean Bunsen burner, I'll tell ya"
I really like the characterization of this super-science project as "trying to make a plant for the 21st century!" because the 21st century is the future, back when this movie was made.
they believed in the future back then.
[SCIENCING INTENSIFIES]
We go back to the swamp church, and the Gentleman-Dressed-as-a-Butler who is no longer dressed as a butler accosts and the Gentleman-Dressed-as-Steve-Irwin accost her for going into the swamp with the slutty scientist boy. I guess her job is "government agent" and other people are supposed to protect her and her purity.
Then we hear some explosions that sound like gunshots and everyone panics.
@diazona Definitely saw a β’οΈ on the wall
@Cherizilla Side effect of it not being the 70s anymore?
These wipes are killing me, the editor is expressing too much creativity :blobfoxangrylaugh:
Okay, so the secret lab gets deeper and has a secret swamp genius, and the big hair lady wanders in and meets a couple of scientists who really like her vibe. Maybe they're not a couple, but the boy scientist wants to take the big hair lady for a boat ride, for which she dons her hawaiian shirt. This is after he showed her his moss possum (it makes sense in context).

@guyjantic oh this needs to be a checkbox
@jonny lol, oh yeah, he did just kinda give up on fixing the World and decide to sulk in a bog....
I kinda understand though.
That was wholesome goofy fun! Better than I expected, all things considered.
Truly, tonight Swamp Thing made all our hearts sing
and made everything
groovy
Swamp Thing: I think I love you
And so we bid farewell you the movie, the players, Sawmp Thing's ass, and the Island of Dr Moreau... We are gonna watch that soon aren't we?
#Monsterdon #SwampThing
Disappointingly close to bingo, but no banana (or, some swamp fruit) π’
Sound effects by "Jay's Meat & Provision Co."!?
*Swamp Thing heals Cable's sword-inflicted chest wound with the Power of Plant*
"Alec, what is it?" [ed: Alec? Alex?]
"It's over."
Yaaaaaaaaay it's over!
Oh no wait there's more dialogue
Just don't tell our story to Wes Craven. God knows what he'd do.
"...What?! I didn't catch that!"
*Star-shaped wipe transition*
Just stand behind me in the lab and use my boobs like a game controller, and I'll be your hands, it'll work fine
c'mon swamp thing, use Cure Light Wounds again.
Jude:
Skilled with malfunctioning machinery
Able to get out of tough situations
Knows about bookies
Completely unfazed by gigantic, ultra-strong, moss-covered green monsters from the swamp
Good with boats
Strong glasses game
#Monsterdon
and here it is, the knock-down drag-out monster fight we've been waiting for!
#monsterdon Note to self : Do not install secret unlocking candlestick in the dungeon.
who put all this dry ice in the swamp
Remember, this is the essence of Bruno. He was always like this. You remember that, right?
Little Swamp of Horrors
Bruno got polite and soft spoken ?!
Swamp Thing grows a little camera from his arm, takes a photo of Cable and says βHavenβt you ever heard of PHOTO-synthesis?β
#monsterdon
Whoa! It turned him into a Cenobite!
Doesn't anyone in this movie have a regular name?
@arrjay Dr Strangelove from a different perspective? #Monsterdon
Swampie should be like: "I dunno, I'm not acquainted with any geniuses" and stare straight at Dr Evil.
One of my favorite features of a movie is when I have no idea where any of the locations are in relation to any other location
My mom, after Bruno transforms: "We don't talk about Bruno!"
