mfer how is this taking so long? You know you have this power! Do the damn thing!

#Monsterdon

Excalibur! #monsterdon

I saw that one coming with the hands-on healing...

#monsterdon

"THE SWORD, THE SWORD! IT'S EXCAILIBUR! I AM ENGLANDS KING!"

#Monsterdon

Ok his healing powers now are going to be handy #monsterdon

Is she gonna get Swamp Thinged or just magic healed?

#Monsterdon

"Not in the titties! You bastard!" #monsterdon

If the climax of the film is a big fight, maybe you should hire a fight choreographer? Just sayin.
#monsterdon

We be clubbin'

#Monsterdon

Now that the evil rich guy is a wookiee bat, he's decided to be mad and start smashing things. Now that swampy has his arm back, he frees agent bighair, and then Gollum appears to help them escape (presumably because he's mad that he was turned into a gollum). He leads them to a well that they escape into to return to the swamp.

Meanwhile, Evil Guy has grabbed a sword and is chasing them with it because he liked that Star Trek episode where shirtless Sulu had a sword.

#monsterdon

Anyway, Adrienne Barbeau is as soaking wet as she's ever been. Again.

#Monsterdon

She is sitting in the beautiful maiden pose.

What happened to punching guys out?

#monsterdon

I guess it isn't worth pointing out that that wasn't what Kant meant by the thing in itself much like all the other philosophy references in the movie.

#Monsterdon

@Taweret #monsterdon

the dry ice was left over from the Pink Floyd concert last week.

CLOCK WIPE!

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Clock Wipe…

This has become a different and entirely worse movie

#monsterdon

oh, the Speedo is not a good look, Arcane.

#monsterdon

lolol those eyeballs. but cute hair tho.

#monsterdon

Why were people ever surprised by bad DC movies

#Monsterdon

In the dungeon, Agent Big Hair has realized that Swampy is solar powered and tells him to reach for the light from the window; he does that and his arm regrows; I'm not sure why it didn't regrow earlier when they were in the sun for hours, but okay.

Meanwhile, Tea Pouring lady brings Evil Rich Guy some tea then freaks out and leaves as he starts transforming into a Different Swamp Thing that looks less like a frog man and more like an evil wookiee bat.

#monsterdon

Guess there wasn't any budget leftover for the big bad's mask

#Monsterdon

Swamp Thing be like:

#Monsterdon

"You have to twist it to the right, then to the left."

...so It's a doorknob?

#monsterdon

lol, Arcane really regretting everything now, going to run around with a sword for reasons....

#Monsterdon

oh man i do not think laughter was the intended effect of that new villain suit

#monsterdon #SwampThing

lol @ Arcane's new face

#Monsterdon

Movie, the essence of bad dude here is definitely not hair and sword

#monsterdon

@SRLevine @plaidtron3000 Well I'm not a physicist, but I assume that in the wolf dimension the energy is transmuted into wolf floof, and in the swamp dimension the energy is transmuted into like... moss or something? slime? maybe frogs?

#monsterdon

I AM GROOT

#Monsterdon

@paco @SnoopJ Adrienne Barbeau is more than boobs!

#Monsterdon

*villain doses an Erlenmeyer flask of glowing green Dr. Holland's Formula™ formula into what looks like a pewter Nick & Nora cocktail glass*

oh come on, at least use a nonreactive vessel

#monsterdon

Nice practical effects
#monsterdon

He needs to photosynthesize?
Can this plot get more ad-hoc
#monsterdon

lol, Arcane sitting there like the expensive drugs he purchased didn't work...

...oh wait, it's given him "King Charles Hands!"

#Monsterdon

yeah, go ahead sir, i do love me a movie where the villain's hubris destroys him.

#monsterdon

ok, the fingers changing while he looked at them was a good shot.

#monsterdon

@catzilla Arguably it was a good thing for Indiana Jones

#Monsterdon

I wonder what movie this villain thinks he's in

#Monsterdon

he's gonna drink the glowstick isn't he

#Monsterdon

"Louis Jordan takes LSD"

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Funny little thread of intertextual fun here. This green glowing goo could be seen, if you squint just right, as the same stuff that Dr. Erskine developed that made Marvel's Red Skull and Captain America. It makes you more of what you already were.

I mean, if Big Bad took the formula, it'd turn him into PURE EVIL!

and that would be a different movie.

#monsterdon

The party kind of died once Bruno was poisoned and transformed into a gnome
The guests were expecting Swinging.

#Monsterdon

Oh no, the villain clandestinely dosed the mercenary Bruno with Holland's plant formula at the opulent post-operation victory dinner! Bruno seems to not be enjoying the effects: he falls under the table, only to emerge a moment later... transformed into a goblin..? (I think he was supposed to be one of those possum-like diggers from Cable's first scene entering the lab?)

Interesting that the physical transformation diminished his stature by ~1/3 and also shrunk his clothes.

#monsterdon

"It's every man for himself, and God against all."

Ah, a maltheist, like myself.

#monsterdon #swampthing

So if you bathe in swamp, do you come out cleaner? #Monsterdon

Okay, so the formula works in terms of getting you STR and CON based off of your INT and WIL.

#Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

This movie is ahead of its time, a prequel to “ Honey I shrunk the Kids”
#monsterdon

I like how the formula tailored Bruno's clothes

#Monsterdon

There is a lot more frontal nudity in this film than I was expecting. (The amount I was expecting was: none. More fool I.)

#monsterdon

okay that's a hilarious party prank

#Monsterdon

The (Chekhov's?) gun on the table in front of the empty chair is an excellent touch. #Monsterdon

Wow, if I had a nickel for every time I looked down at my phone and looked up again to see boobs while watching this movie, I would have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
#Monsterdon

Okay these nipples are somehow more obscene

#Monsterdon

Oh wow this is basically the same sexualizing costume from ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK

#Monsterdon

They should've shot this party scene like it was in Goodfellas.

#Monsterdon

"Cheers!"

"Great. Now you have all consumed the Kool-Aid..." 😬 😬 😬

#monsterdon

testing #Fedicat thread view on #monsterdon

Again, I can believe a rich people's party in Louisiana would have somebody tied to a chair at the dinner table and nobody have a problem with that.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Now I wanna reread the Rick Veitch and Alan Moore runs of Swamp Thing. Those were amazing.

"A man who loves gives hostages to fortune"

speak for yourself mate...I just do the dishes instead

#Monsterdon

Do you want leeches? This is how you get leeches.

#monsterdon #swampthing

@jonny new militia guys with MOAR HAIR

#monsterdon

@LuluHelle I'd worry about all the little creature swimming everywhere.... #Monsterdon

@MatthewTitus88 The main character has been planted in all the right places #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Directors poorly veiled fetish now arriving…

I would not bathe in that swamp but you do you, lady

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Ok, but what happened to gas station kid?

#monsterdon The Shape of Swamp Water..

@wohali shit, we do

how? why?

#monsterdon #SwampThing

Laughing Swamp Thing as as a GIF please

#Monsterdon

Uh oh, monster hands are caught in her velcro hair.

#monsterdon

Forgot our internet turns itself off briefly at this time of night. Now *that's* the real horror 😱 #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #SwampThing THEY DID SAY THE FORMULA WAS WORTH AN ARM AND A LEG

@blueemu and nobody else cares, it's harsh as a mook #Monsterdon

whaaaaa Swamp Thing isn't invincible? What a plot twist

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Swamp Thing doesn't mind having a limb knocked off. I mean, it'll be fine.

Whew! the kid's ok! #monsterdon

I assume Cable got herself captured so… that we could get her soaking wet again? I cannot see any other purpose.

#Monsterdon

Nice death twitch! #Monsterdon

So, uh, do arms grow back?

#Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

Temu Rambo is dead, thank goodness #monsterdon #TheSwampThing

Ferret and Baldy were an item, weren't they?

#Monsterdon

Swamp Thing smirk rules!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #SwampThing *implied headsquishing*

#monsterdon You'd think after being thrown into the water a dozen times, they'd use up all their free punch-outs at the local laundromat.

#monsterdon how did he know how to do green glow healing magic?

Best line in the whole movie. #Monsterdon #SwampThing

ahhh, of course Swampy has magical healing powers, of course....

#Monsterdon

I like how after each grenade explodes the Thing just raises his arms: "Oh geez there's another one!" #Monsterdon

BOOOOOO NO KILLING THE BEST CHARACTER IN THE MOVIE

#monsterdon #SwampThing

windshield wiper fade?!?!?!

#monsterdon

the swamp is pretty tho

#Monsterdon

Aww, it was nice of them to give Jude a little votive with the flowers and Mother Virgin mary statue.

#monsterdon

Jude, no!

#Monsterdon #SwampThing1982

I liked that boat explosion better in The Fall Guy.

#Monsterdon

The Evil Bad Guy is smart because he uses obvious chess metaphors

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Certainly helps when your fanboat isn't made of nitroglycerin and painted with thermite, yeah?

Wilhelm scream

(I always get that wrong)
