And now the Sioux Nation attacks #Monsterdon

Impressive that the orcas understood their instructions so well. #Monsterdon

This is not a movie suited for headphones

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

@cheribaker this movie but with the muppets #monsterdon

This movie is very bad at following through on its death scenes

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon so how many times has the octopus broken up reef rocks?! more than once (before the first onscreen kill) seems absurd.

I'm really digging the slide-whistle soundtrack.

This is a lie.

#monsterdon #tentacles

so like what even was going on in the whole part of the movie after the first 10 minutes and before the last 10 minutes #monsterdon

i'm going to work on the crossword until this dumb scuba scene is over #monsterdon

This octopus is laughing like Beavis #Monsterdon #tentacles

This isn't Duel of the Fates, movie.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon “Orcas? This is CHEATING!”

Is... Is the last ten minutes of this film literally just some poor octopus being assaulted by an asshole with an orca toy? #Monsterdon

And so they went off into the ocean #monsterdon

This music is making me think Clint Eastwood is going to show up in a poncho and shoot the fuck out of this octopus. #monsterdon #Tentacles

where the fuck is tor johnson when you need him

#monsterdon #Tentacles

@JoeWynne Yes. It’s not just you. #Monsterdon

@floatybirb An individual by the name of Stelvio Cipriani according to IMDB #monsterdon

congrats, you all have Assonitis now.

Seek help.

#monsterdon #tentacles

i... what the hell did i just watch... i mean... what the actual hell...

10/10, peak #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Oh, thank GOD.

Classical music.

(I said I was ready for some violins earlier.)

Oh. Yeah these are totally Italian actors.
#monsterdon

@Taweret why ask why at least *something* is finally happening in this #Monsterdon :blobcheeky:

Are you hearing this male choir now?

#Monsterdon #Tentacles1977 #Tentacles

I've seen Quint many times, and you sir, you are no Quint.

#Monsterdon

They just ran out of music! It just stops mid fight...
#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Seriously. Someone was PAID to do that orca puppet scene. Like paid real money. #monsterdon #Tentacles

@cheribaker this part really bothered me, whether it's dead or alive.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

I gave up. Outside checking out the full moon instead.

@jeffron @apLundell @Taweret And we may be entitled to financial compensation. #Monsterdon

...I don't think that cured my Assonitis :/ #monsterdon #Tentacles1977

Mr Gordon Fisherman is chained to the boat because otherwise he'd jump into the sea when his Orca lovers came into view. #monsterdon

Underwater no one can hear you scream #Monsterdon #tentacles

what was that sound effect for the fish eating the smaller fish? it sounded like a door slamming #monsterdon

this whale x octopussy monster battle is too messy to follow. and the soundtrack doesn't make it easier.
#monsterdon

[orca hand puppets messing with a regular size octopus]
#Monsterdon

@apLundell @Taweret but weren’t we all victims of Tentacles? #Monsterdon

the orcas are probably not sure how to live in the ocean after a life of captivity dude that's like whe whole thing that aquariums need to know about and deal with #monsterdon

#Monsterdon Enjoying our very experienced divers being repeatedly startled by common but quite small animals.

#Monsterdon Dr. Marine Biologist has forgotten, apparently, that octopuses can squeeze into very tiny spaces. This scuba search is ill-thought. Also, who uses explosive bolts only when things get up close and personal??

More fantastic, miniature work even if orcas don’t move in and out like that. #Monsterdon

@aprilfollies
They're sensitive that way.

#monsterdon

The music IS mildly Ifukube...

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Underwater landslide is the most interesting special effect so far #monsterdon

@brooke Does Chekhov's principle apply in the last 10% of the movie though

#Monsterdon

The score for the final scene is like a Red Army March or something out of Russia.

#monsterdon

that guy must have been a really good whale-kisser #monsterdon

I'm on #TeamMoreEffectsLessTalking
#monsterdon

@apLundell You mean an ... Orca-stra. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon 1:32:22 Trombonist just fucking walked up to the mic and let fly. Otherwise this music is pretty good...

🎶 you Triiiieeeeed to kill me with an orca

Just--MDMA on the waves.

#Monsterdon

I left to get a snack and this whale Octopus fight scene is still going!

#Monsterdon #Tentacles1977

They couldn't even get the ADR right of the people redubbing their own dialog. #monsterdon #tentacles

blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry blurry

so drama
such film

#monsterdon #Tentacles

@Louisa Ah, good times on NPR
#monsterdon

"...we'll use the chanting monks for the battle scene!"
"Great idea!" <snorts another line>

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Somewhere Jacques Costeau is shaking his fists. #Monsterdon

Stop prodding the aquarium octopus with orca toys! You're being mean! #Monsterdon

I think they just got a squid at the local Chinese restaurant for this #monsterdon #Tentacles1977

If Hanna Barbera did a cartoon where two orcas protect some meddling kids from sea monsters, this would be that show’s music. Maybe without the male chorus.

#Monsterdon #tentacles

Are they going to tell us what’s in the tunnel that made the Giant Octopus, er Squid, so mad? #Monsterdon #tentacles

Overture for Octopodes, for bassoon, french horn, and marching drum

#Monsterdon

Is Tentacles a real kaiju movie? They didn't once call in the military, but sent two supposed orca trainers with a tube or orca, and fish harpoon.
#monsterdon

This guy is supposed to be as inscrutably loony and bent as Quint but he just comes off as a flake.

#Monsterdon

ah, Saved By The Whale #monsterdon

this is a sea creature that can be defeated by a _chef_ with a good _kitchen knife_. i am extra unimpressed with everyone in this film.

#monsterdon #Tentacles

okay orca v octopus is something different but why is it happening?

#monsterdon

THIS IS AMAZING SERIOUSLY THIS MAKES IT ALL WORTHWHILE #Monsterdon

Actual octopi were harmed during the making of this film. Harmed by puppets. #monsterdon #Tentacles

#Monsterdon I love how the Orcas theme music is high energy classical strings.

Dude gonna get the bends again #monsterdon

@msh @bunnyhero I said what I said #monsterdon

ORCA HAND PUPPETS OH MY GOD #Monsterdon

"...I'd like to be under the sea, in an octopus's garden in the shade..."

#Monsterdon #Tentacles

Orca rescue!

#monsterdon

Weird mixture of absolute silence and bizarre loud sound effects that don't connect to anything on screen.

In conclusion the ocean is a land of contrasts.

#monsterdon

Enrico Morricone would like a word with the soundtrack author at this point. He just wants to talk, he swears. #monsterdon #tentacles

Orca puppets to the rescue! #monsterdon #Tentacles

Many tuna, octopus, orcas, and coral were injured in the making of this film. #Monsterdon

They could only afford one set of fancy Jaques Cousteau advanced aqualungs #Monsterdon #tentacles

Reef falls, everybody dies. THE END.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon oh is being underwater disorienting when i do this???
♻️🫧🫧🫧🫧
how about when i do this???
♻️🐠🎥

The music of this movie is just beyond
#monsterdon

@Zerofactorial I see what you did there #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero

#Monsterdon Oh nice. Sexy wetsuit dressing montage.

Then, in an unrelated movie, an orca dives. #Monsterdon

okay what the hell with the music

#monsterdon

@ricci (jacques cousteau DMCA request, sacre bleu that was my bit #monsterdon )

wow this guy managed to die to _falling rocks_ in an environment where he can _fly_. fucking amazing.

#monsterdon #Tentacles

I could use some orca oven mitts #monsterdon

why are they doing this again? instead of like not doing this?

its not like the octopus is gonna come into town

#monsterdon

Harpsicord vs violins and drums? Is this Peter and the Wolf but with ocras and an octopus???
#Monsterdon #Tentacles

@trixter Happy ending at last! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon The orcas fuck off into the sea. Smart.

Did these motherfuckers really destroy a reef making this? #Monsterdon

carefully blurred underwater shots #monsterdon #tentacles

Oh great, now Mount Tambora is erupting. #Monsterdon

Rocks fall, everyone dies.

#monsterdon #tentacles

well, this scene has gone on too long. - Me, about the whole damn movie. #monsterdon #tentacles

i know what a napolean fish looks like from animal crossing

#monsterdon
