Orca rescue!
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.
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
@Taweret two ferrets are screeching in a box to the Cypriot National Anthem while a diver wrestles a rubber tentacle #Monsterdon
Reef falls, everybody dies. THE END.
#Monsterdon oh is being underwater disorienting when i do this???
β»οΈπ«§π«§π«§π«§
how about when i do this???

The music of this movie is just beyond
#monsterdon
@Zerofactorial I see what you did there #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon Oh nice. Sexy wetsuit dressing montage.
Then, in an unrelated movie, an orca dives. #Monsterdon
okay what the hell with the music
@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.
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
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.
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 He got inked - and not in a cool, I'm-building-a-sleeve-devoted-to-Monsterdon kind of way.
@flowerpot the only characters with any sense. #Monsterdon
So this movie just broke apart a coral reef and threw the sharp edges at a guy?
#Monsterdon #Tentacles
I wonder if "cocaine" will be in the credits.
orcas vs. octopus is a really bad matchup, completely different predation and defense strategies. the octopus could just go into the rocks and become invisible and wait it out because the orcas are gigantic muscle tubes while the octopus is gelatinous camouflage being #monsterdon
@Taweret I was pretty excited about the ray.
#Monsterdon I was complaining about the use of a ceramic coffee cup and lo! I was right.
@msh @bunnyhero You feel like it doesn't hold water? #monsterdon
@Taweret Is that a WATER lou shot?! #Monsterdon
Did an LLM go back in time and generate this script?
#Monsterdon Putting on scuba gear - Batman & Robin style.
i think that was a napolean fish
that's been the most interesting thing in the movie to me so far
I would get excited about Tentacle ejecting ink, but I'm really just bored right now. #Monsterdon
Instead of bats suddenly flying out of the cave as a jump scare, we get a ray, but it was more like a hop scare. #Monsterdon
So, anyone know if "Technisub" is still in business?
@Taweret you mean besides the infant?
Well at least one kid didn't come home from the regatta.
He may have been eaten, or just left behind in the confusion, nobody bothered to double check.
This part of the movie is just Rock Lobster.
Here comes a stingray (Ooh-wah, ooh-wah)
There goes a manta ray (Ah, ah, ah)
In walked a jellyfish
There goes a dogfish
Chased by a catfish
In flew a sea robin (La)
Watch out for that piranha
There goes a narwhal
Here comes a bikini whale
These jump scares are neither jumpy nor scary. Discuss
#Monsterdon Interspersed shots of octo-vision and guy fondling harpoon gun fail to build tension. Iβm far more excited about seeing the whale fins. Orcas, please save this movie!!
The music thinks this is now a Hercules movie
#Monsterdon
#monsterdon ah yes the famous stingray mating call, sounds like a falling cymbal.
(the youtube version i'm watching has chapter names, and this one starts "Thrilling encounters with dangerous sea creatures..." i think they got mixed up with the chapters from another upload. #monsterdon )
I want to see a movie about the procurement and downfall of the million dollar octopus model that they had to scrap #monsterdon #Tentacles1977
Grouper. Nom nom. #Monsterdon
I think I hear cheetah in that Octopus attack.
The questions in my mind are: Sure, this is bad, but is it "Gargoyles" bad? "Invaders from Outer Space" bad? #monsterdon
This movie has not earned this many fake outs
#monsterdon
βAll right. Enough saidβ β¦ #Monsterdon
is this the only actual use of surround sound in this film?
regardless of the octopus we did just watch that dude lose his entire oxygen tank and get crushed by rocks, i don't know anything about scuba but that is not a survivable scuba injury i think. #monsterdon
The director was paying the script writer by the word. So he's like "let's shoot half this film underwater where nobody can say anything"
Like, imagine being able to speak to orcas and not immediately asking them about the salmon hats thing? #monsterdon
like i seriously just tried to spell it "awayke" that's where we're at people #Monsterdon
is that a napolean fish?
#monsterdon
it's 10:30pm and i've had a long day
these underwater stalking scenes are a legitimate threat to my ability to stay awake #Monsterdon
oh, the orcas are back. guys, you had the chance we all wish we had - to get out of this movie. #monsterdon
and i thought my concept for a druid pc was bad, sheesh #monsterdon
OMG IT'S AN ORCA HAND PUPPET #monsterdon #tentacles
am I the only one who doesnβt have any idea who the fuck Mike is? did he teleport onto that boat? #monsterdon
@NovaCora the octopus rejected him? #heLovesTheSea #Monsterdon
So I just figured out why the harpsichord....it's not a regular octopus, it's a ....BAROQUETOPUS
actually y'know what the thunderball underwater sequence was slightly less boring than this
_slightly_
SPEED UP THE FOOTAGE OF THE ORCAS! #monsterdon #tentacles
oh please with this orcas coming to the rescue music i love it #monsterdon
I could have made this movie.
That's how bad this is.
#Monsterdon yo orcas they used to call you killers and I know you only have love in your hearts. but I need you to kill for me now. bye.
"people call you kilers, they used to call me that on the streets" where, the streets of salt lake city? #monsterdon
Donβt go pointing that speargun at your groin Fake Tom Cruise. You never know if it might be loaded. #Monsterdon #tentacles
Oh no it was Jamie π©
These guys think they're the heroes, but we all know that Shelley Winter's hat is the true hero of this film.
ad break! somehow i welcome it. at least it makes sense #monsterdon
The Orcas left the film because it sucks so hard
#Monsterdon Suiting up always goes faster in a montage.
we're gonna need a montage... MONTAGE!
You killed my wife, but did I retaliate? No. But you kill my whales⦠vendetta! #Monsterdon
Meanwhile further down the coast. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon Thereβs almost a Dennis Villeneuve way about this flick. No dialog, just a lot of looking around.
How is there still 2 hours leftβ½
#monsterdon
SUIT SEQUENCE #monsterdon
@Taweret actually nothing
#Monsterdon This movie needs an editor worse than an octopus jonesing for his next scuba diver.
I think they blew the budget on necklaces.
@trixter They really ARE smarter than humans. #Monsterdon
what's going on tho?
It was very clever of them to bring captive orca out here to kill the octopus, orca are not known to exist in the wild #Monsterdon
Those orcas are getting the fucking off into the sea done early.
Thatβs the best Star Trek ship shaking Iβve seen. Just went right through that table. #Monsterdon #Tentacles

π TENTACLES TRIVIA TROVE π
Promotional posters that listed several points about octopuses were provided by the film's distributor.
Monsterdon has done way better this week with @cheribaker 's superior daily octo-updates.
