Fake-out! These are all Zeus' sperm creating more demigods!
We need Neil deGrasse Tyson commenting on this planetary formation sequence.
This opening reminds me a little of later Superman films.

Don't have enough footage for an entire feature film? Pad it.
Like in The Adventures of Hercules, where the title sequence is nearly *8 minutes* long.
the gods really do just want to make us look at all their balls, don't they
I wonder what Hercules is doing right now...
Please stop chucking angry cysts at us, movie.
Ahhh! he yeeted a bunch of sunflower seeds into space!
Cause last weekβs cosmology didnβt work so well β¦ #Monsterdon
These are some goddamn hippy effects.
Giant glowing balls. Great way to start a Sunday Night. Let's do something about that, I've got to work tomorrow... #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheAdventuresofHercules1985
Time for massive muscles and perhaps subpar writing?
And the narration begins.
#monsterdon #Hercules1985
Imperia was her Roman name, the Greeks knew her as the goddess Retcon #monsterdon
aright, this can be my #monsterdon root thread for Herc'85
Is that the MST3K moon? #monsterdon
So, no aliens with clockwork monsters and genderbent Daedalus?
Was this ever in 3D? It's very 3D-coded.
Is this a mythology lesson about the planets, or a great big game of pool? YOU DECIDE
anybody for an out of focus game of marbles?
Evil EYE and Planets and shit #monsterdon #hercules1985
@strangefour if Hercules throws something fast enough that it might as well have been shot out of a cannon, I'll count that
Once upon a time, a god dropped a lightbulb in the dark... #Monsterdon
Oh hell yes, the opening exposition is already in space. This is hopefully foreshadowing that EVEN MORE THINGS WILL BE THROWN INTO SPACE.
Well, at least they're going with their own mythology instead of ancient Egypt β where the seed that spawned all the stars and planets was autofellated then spat out again by a god.
Consider this my warning for my upcoming barrage of #monsterdon toots for The Adventures of Hercules II. They'll be replies threaded here, so mute the thread or the hashtag. (Also, I did not join last week, so I will be even more surprised at the sequel nonsense than I would have been otherwise.)
Superman! No wait... #Monsterdon
Don't blame me, I voted for Critters 4
#monsterdon
Oh this is just like Universe Sandbox #Monsterdon
We now bring you a wacky lava-lamp trip version of Greek mythology, entirely distinct from last week's wacky lava-lamp trip version of Greek mythology

Alright! Time for Hercules 2: Electric Boogaloo!

Miruβs trailer: βMonsters compete for the honor of killing Herculesβ
Oh good, that means we get rid of him in this one, right???
Right???
Oh gosh, Lou Ferrigno! Hope he doesn't hulk out too much here. #Monsterdon
Lou Ferrigno + Narration #monsterdon #hercules1985
Oh great, yet more exposition. With more acid trip special effects.
We are in for a goodun.
