Is it getting darker or are all the red pixels in my TV just tired? Or am I losing my ability to see red?

Okay, so we farted around more in the spaceship and the girl was like "I'm scared is that because I'm a girl?" and Colonel Pilot is like "no boys can be scared too."

Then we go outside, wander in the redworld and find a giant alien monster, which we piss off by hitting it with a Machete. It looks like um... a conical tripod with a bat's face in its bottom. Anyway its mad at us, and we shoot it with our science gun but nothing happens.

I would have said she was targeted by the plant for her red hair (since they made such a big deal out of it), but wasn't she wearing a helmet?

"I know you think I acted like a hysterical female back there, but I can take care of myself. I won't get out of your sight."

"Have it your way, Irish."

*she immediately walks out of his sight*

I want a movie where the science girl in the spaceship is a bug girl and is just like "woah cool bug! I wanna be its friend!" instead of screaming and passing out.

Which I think would be the more realistic scientist reaction rather than passing out when you see a weird thing.

Crew of Doomed Rocketship:

Girl (main character) - named Iris but called Irish because she has red hair I guess.
Pilot (horny) - likes the Girl, Girl likes him back
Radio Officer (horny) - likes the Girl, Girl does not like him back. reads science fiction magazines in his spaceship.
Professor (smart) - plays chess

Okay, I was wrong about us immediately getting to Mars, it seems to take a while, so the professor guy has time to play chess in the control room. Also, the rocket has full gravity, presumably from constant 1G acceleration.

Also, the control room has a ladder to a pantry, where the girl and the guy she likes go, so they can discuss Mars as the Roman God of War while fondling the food cans.

If they keep referring to Dr. Ryan as "the girl" I'm going to get a bit ticked off.

We get a press montage where the newspapers were like "OMG Mars Rocket's gonna land! Is anyone alive on it?" and a TV broadcast that is "The rocket will land in Nebraska. here's a montage of the crew. It includes the professor and one girl."

I'm assuming the rocket will land in Nebraska because if it crashes its less likely to destroy anything interesting.

Launching my thread for "The Angry Red Planet", which I assume is about Mars being mad.

Monsterdon is the thing where we watch an old monster movie each week and make fun of it in 9999+ posts. Mute the hash tag if you don't want to see that many posts by me and others about it.

In the end, they only had Iris's word for what happened. There were no recordings of the giant space amoeba, or pictures, or anything. (We have pictures of Sam shagging his gun, but no pictures of woman-eating plants or space-ship sized amoebas).

What actually happened was she got tired of Sam shaving at his desk and kissing all the equipment. She got sick of the professor smoking at his desk.

So she knocked the one dude out and put some jello on his arm. Then she killed Sam and the Professor. She put them, the razor and beard clippings and pipe out the airlock.

Then she makes up some bullshit about a giant amoeba, and flies home with they guy who refused to say her name right. I mean, if those are your 3 choices, I think she picked the best of the 3?

After curing the guy of his amoeba off camera, we find the tape of the martians, where the Martian says "We have been studying you since forever, but we think you are a childish civilization because you war against each other, but don't come back here, because you don't want you touching your planet and if we come back we'll destroy your whole planet."

Then the title card drops.

For many episodes have we viewed your "I Married Joan"

I guess some time after setting the rocket to automatic, the girl passed out, and then we go back to the present, and learn that the last tape might have the Martian's message on it. Also, the doctor explains that an amoeba infection is eating the pilot's skin, so maybe we can save him.

The pilot wakes up in a cast and starts thrashing in his hospital bed, so the nurse gives him drugs.

Anyway, the astronauts start rowing toward the martian city, which consists of minimalist looking spires coming out of the water, when a big sea creature that is also a tentacle monster surfaces in front of them and rotates its eyes like a radar, so the astronauts say "Nope!" and row their boat back to land, but the tentacle monster is chasing them, so they run into their rocket, but the monster grabs one of the boys and eats him by inserting him into its jello pouch.

Knowing what the astronauts know now, I would assume that the Martians want to keep the rocket trapped on Mars for investigation purposes and would expect some kind of probe to analyze them.

We turn off the rocket to not waste fuel, then the professor does a science and determines that they're being held by a gravitational force field, and we conclude that means aliens are keeping us her.

So we pull out an inflatable boat and use it to paddle across the lake and after some paddling we see some aliens in our funnel binoculars.

We go back to the rocket and then decide to leave, instead of staying the full five days. I'm not really sure why they made this decision, since they haven't encountered any danger that they couldn't get out of. But I guess they got some information and they're scared, so they decide to leave.

But when they try to leave their rockets blast off but the ship does not move and instead just vibrates there like a massive upright vibrator.
