@nash agreed, best shot of the film #monsterdon

#Monsterdon sparks mean failure

Mitch really doesn't like pants.

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

@joewynne If the vessel has a handle it's okay, if the vessel doesn't have a handle don't drink? #LabLaws #Monsterdon

Reverse the Polarity!!!

#Monsterdon

"just throw stuff in from out of frame, it will totally look real."

#monsterdon

BINGO! #Monsterdon

The old reversing polarity trick #monsterdon

@Zerofactorial Not nearly enough small children in this. #Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

Technobabble will save the day!
The secrets of the Masonic lodge will defeat the flying battleship.
#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

"We're already up to our necks in trouble with this giant bird, we can't handle a wild goose too." #Monsterdon

"we'll attract its attention somehow" after all, Mitch knows how to flirt in an airplane. #monsterdon

why don't you adjust the polarity of some bitches?

#monsterdon

"I blew myself up on purpose! It's the most sensible thing I've done all movie!" #Monsterdon

Reverse the polarity!

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

"I don't want her on that plane. We'll end up making out instead of solving the problem." #Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

General Buzzkirk, now that's a general's name #monsterdon

#monsterdon There's gotta be like 30 "Man or Astroman" albums worth of samples in this movie.

Somebody, get me my pants!!!

That's a guy ready to get s**t done!!

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

See, if this were a Showa Toho film, they'd have called in the telepaths by now #monsterdon

@Zerofactorial

I won't pretend the writers got *everything* right, but they at least stayed awake for it, which is unusual
#monsterdon

No, but seriously, why is narrator guy doing his Mayor Quimby impersonation?

#Monsterdon

LMFAO so who else found out the hard way that the server will rate-limit you? sowwy jortshorse i’ll try to slow it down #monsterdon #thegiantclaw

So the whole Earth is worried about the bird? Because it seems to just hang out where McAfee and Caldwell live

#Monsterdon

damn, he lived

#monsterdon

ADJUSTING THE POLARITY! #monsterdon

honestly just drop some dynamite shaped like dudes with parachutes, let bigbird eat 'em up. coyote or no it's a better idea than _this_ bullshit #monsterdon

"Get the fire extinguisher, Mitch tried to kiss someone again." #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Mcafee time is running out

If you’re a model train in a #monsterdon movie, you may be in danger

bang bang into the roooom #monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw
"Okay, boys and girls... we're making a Meson Gun to kill a space chicken! We will a clipboard, a sideways lava lamp, some vacuum tubes and a good helping of gunpowder! We will also need a microscope, probably to look at the mesons, because they are Very Small."

you know maybe you wouln't fail so much if you used some of those newfangled TRANSISTORS? #Monsterdon

@wrog Yeah, but to destroy an antimatter shield? Not on my watch #monsterdon

Panic spread to all corners of the earth? Again? Twice in one movie? #Monsterdon

Not Petticoat Junction!!!!! #monsterdon

Damn 50s punk kids! I hope a bird shits on your windshield!
...
Or that.
#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

I love how the feathers on the bird's head don't obey any laws of aerodynamics known to man. #monsterdon

What can we do?

Let’s try science!
#Monsterdon

failure after failure after failure

this is the worst exeter ever, can't even make a decent interociter

#monsterdon

"Last time we tried this it lit up like a sparkler. Let's get real close and see what happens." #Monsterdon

Gonna need a bigger tube ...

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

MESON MONTAGE #monsterdon

Big Bird needs a train set for her baby boy. #monsterdon

CALLING IT: we now have "Teamwork"! Scene of three different characters working together! Which means we ALSO have BINGO! #Monsterdon

Sweaty men! Working long hours! Turning things! And ADJUSTING them! #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon let that be a lesson to you kids

@Zerofactorial

actually, it's the basis for muon-catalyzed fusion (if that could ever be gotten to work).

#monsterdon

@msh MEGA MASER?! #MonsterDon

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw To intensify the science, they are bringing up Mesons.

About the only thing I know about Mesons is that they are used for the giant death rays in the #TravellerRPG that space battleships use to penetrate armor. Apparently real Mesons cannot actually penetrate armor though.

Anyway, on short notice, the movie people are making a giant Meson death ray to fight the evil chicken.

@wrog But one who was badly drunk #monsterdon

Never eat in the lab!! There's your problem!

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

"truly a miracle of science, especially since no one involved in the writing of this movie has ever so much as opened a science textbook." #monsterdon

Technobabble when nobody understands what anybody else is talking about.

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe Inverse tachyon pulses fix anything. #monsterdon #thegiantclaw

This meson talk is all nonsense, on a par with micro-oxygen #monsterdon #physics

Sounds like you've invented the Maser sir #Monsterdon

So a Mu Meson Maser?!??! #monsterdon

Masic Atoms?? Is this guy.. Is he inventing a Maser? Are we getting a maser in this flick? #Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

Why don't you just reverse the polarity of the deflector dish? #Monsterdon

wow, writers talked to an Actual Physicist

#monsterdon

at a small fraction of the distance of a normal... HOLY SHIT IT IS MICROOXYGEN

THESE FUCKERS

#monsterdon

@DinosaurRobo Mebbie it's a pinto?! 🤷‍♂️ #Monsterdon

@wrog I've been to Upper Saddle River, and I can tell you this bird is not from there #monsterdon

...Yeah, that's bullshit. #Monsterdon

Sayonara senor Pierre. May the wings of battleship sized angels fly your spirit to the next life.
You won't be needing that car anymore. YOINK!
#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

"...this Gap .. you probably know about it Doctor"
"Why yes, it's where I get all my fashion."

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

freemasons? #monsterdon

"Don't worry, they've got guns that can stop anything. Well, anything except the giant bird attacking us but I don't see why that matters." #Monsterdon

I think it did come from Upper Saddle River, NJ.

#monsterdon

Anybody else besides me confused by how the general calls Mitch "boy", when Mitch seems about HIS SAME AGE? #Monsterdon

"i know you don't understand all this general, but neither do i, i'm just reading the script." #monsterdon

the coyote tried this trick, right? bomb bird seed? never works. #monsterdon

Of course, they think it came from New Jersey.

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

hey siri how to shoot the bird out of the sky #monsterdon #thegiantclaw

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw Thoughtful of them to take the dumb teenagers to the hospital on the way to Washington to meet with General Rectangle Hat and Chief Scientist Walt Disney.

"..crackpot wild goose chase"
"You think it's an anti-matter goose?"
"What?"

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

@wrog They were foolishly made of regular matter #monsterdon

I half expect her to have some half-sensible revelation from the salt shaker :P #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon she's from Montana

Mitch is about to suggest uploading a virus to the mothership? #monsterdon

reggie's alive, betty made it, nobody else #monsterdon

wow, it blew them up?

#monsterdon

this scene becomes way more satisfying when you realize that those kids are actually literally baby boomers #monsterdon #thegiantclaw

They're being harrassed by Margot Robbie #monsterdon

how are the obnoxious teens the most lively and appealing characters in the movie #Monsterdon

#monsterdon

Lousy Riverdale punks!

#Monsterdon

"I'm from Montana." *cocks rifle*
#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

But
But why would the car explode
Why
#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

The true monsters: drunk teens

#Monsterdon

Oh! Rowdy Teenagers! I bet _they're_ crunchy. #Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

They destroyed a perfectly good Matchbox car in that fireball!

#Monsterdon #TheGiantClaw

ugh, millennials #monsterdon

@RobynGoodfellow But he was better marinated #monsterdon

hey look it's a bunch of tiktokers #monsterdon #thegiantclaw

"He won't be needing it." That guy is the WORST. #Monsterdon

Nevermind. (Yeah, attack the giant bird's egg. That'll go well.) #Monsterdon
