Okay but actually it makes me really sad that by the time they were homaging old alien monster invasion movies, those misogyny jokes were still entirely valid.

Anyone else want the giant slide rule?
Ah, they have a machine that goes Ding. Very much like the machines that go Ping, but the American version instead.

Evacuate areas of high radiation? Nah. Let's have tea. #monsterdon
That's a CVS receipt. You're not fooling me.
Man, I can't get over how much better UI was before they decided everything needed to be touch screens
That guy is about to get so much salt in his tea #monsterdon

@yatsu The computers are FAR more relatable and personable than the actors. #Monsterdon
Spoiler alert: it will turn out to be a strike by a foreign power, but way more foreign that these folks things
Not that it matters but I don't believe a meteorite would have created a tremendous explosion.
my food delivery is gonna show up any minute. We've waited long enough for the spiders, tell 'em to filibuster a bit more #monsterdon
Dr Langer: As you can see, I cannot possibly do my research without more oscilloscopes.
OH NO! I forgot My tea! ๐ญ
Dr. Langer's looking really sharp in her very 70s pantsuit #Monsterdon
@plaidtron3000 @himbovoorhees YES!!!!!!! #Monsterdon
Ahhh, I see her bulk order from OscilloscopeMart is here.
anybody get a look at that brand name? Actually wondering what piece of equipment it was.

It looks like they rented my high school science classroom for this scene.
oohhh the chunky keyboard on that printing thing
The high tech in this, it hurts #monsterdon
Olivetti Logos 270.
oh right there's supposed to be spiders not just drunk midwesterners #monsterdon
#monsterdon Spider webs are a nice touch. Not as meth-addled as some of the other movies where the spiders just do the same web over and over until it becomes a crocheted blanket of spider silk, so that's a nice touch.

Walking! Down hallways. Out on a sidewalk! Down wooden stairs!
Exciting! Spiders webs! Beakers and bunsen burners!

The original CVS receipt machine.
Now these webs weren't as organized as the orb weavers' but it was still a nice check in with the silky activities. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion1975 *gasp* a lady scientist??????????
@lytta I say "kway-zar" (second syllable rhymes with "are") if I'm being precise, but in normal speech it wouldn't be kway-zee to use either way
mary this is mr vance from NASA, just to warn you. #monsterdon
I'm imagining the end of this movie ends up with the spider choking on oxygen, with the Sherriff looking at the camera and smirking, "Spiders, huh? Who knew?" #Monsterdon
I don't hate this building. It's kinda nice. But it might also be in contrast to Agent Fuckhead.

Excellent folio work on the walking up those stairs to the telescope room
Where do I know this actress from I recognize that husky vocal fry
it's "kayzar" right. RIGHT?
some of these camera angles are pretty interesting
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion1975 hallway: the movie
My brother is also an interior decorator in OshKosh.
That powder blue blazer-bell bottoms combo is DYNAMITE #monsterdon
The sexist dude is named *Mr. Vance* :blobcheeky: #Monsterdon
#monsterdon This fucking guy: okay not your brother? Do you have a nephew twice removed who might be a doctor? How about that guy I saw with the physical-plant workshirt on I saw on the way in?
You'd thing that gamma and xray readings in line with a nuclear explosion would warrent more reaction
Nah-Saw #Monsterdon
@LK_877 I'm concerned they'll bite one of these sorry specimens and damage their own livers #monsterdon
I think Vance is gonna wanna hear more about that interior decorator brother in Oshkosh #monsterdon
@Vanalope it wouldn't be #monsterdon without it!
Oh. Now misogyny schtick. On joy.
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
"Oh no, my brother is gay. But keep digging yourself a deeper hole."
Oh yes, this was right after Congress passed that law that allowed the wimminfolk to learn about kwazars
@yatsu once you go plaid you never go ... ? #iLLgetBackToYou #Monsterdon
#monsterdon Women can't be doctors! Do you have an uncle? How about a father in law? Anyone with a penis maybe? I only communicate best with other penises.
Your husband? Your brother? Your uncle? Your nephew? The guy that lives next-door? #Monsterdon
Government official is flummoxed by a female doctor.
A lady doctor??!! What next? Alien spiders?

This guy. Ol longjohns. He was a famous Hollywood vocal coach! Strange world
Pro tip movie writers: the title is "The Giant Spider Invasion". It literally tells you exactly what to put in the movie in the title. We did not come here for neutron stars. We came for GIANT SPIDERS INVADING
You know if you go to most planeterium shows nowadays, they just play a pre-recorded film. It's too bad, I really miss the retiree docents. #monsterdon
this guy can absolutely GET WRECKED. #monsterdon
Probably the first space monster movie where something falls on someoneโs backyard and people donโt go check it immediately #monsterdon
Spiders? #monsterdon
To be clear, the bearded hillbilly is married to straight-haired Ev, and Ev's younger sister is the one with the curly hair. As loathsome as this guy is, he is NOT hitting on his daughter.

Oh man. I've had dreams like this -- wandering an endless series of hallways that feel like someone's high school D: #Monsterdon
#monsterdon She teaches astronomy like Ben Stein in Ferris Bueller's Day Off... anyone anyone, Black Holes!
@msh The kids looked riveted! #Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
i feel like it's not actually pronounced "kwayzer"... is it actually pronounced "kwayzer"?
#monsterdon yas abnormal baddies stay winning
The director felt it was very important to capture the climbing of many flights of stairs. #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion1975 they're color coordinated at breakfast! green robe on her, green flannel on him <3
Okay, nevermind. That lecture went off the rails.
Was that a laser pointer? GEEZ, That thing was huge!
Sure, she has the theory of everything all worked out but she chose to roll with that sweater dress. #monsterdon
Black holes weren't enough technobabble apparently, they have to get into the creation of the universe and galaxies and neutron stars....
@socketwench I currently live in Minnesota, and have lived in southern Wisconsin; I wholeheartedly agree with you. #Monsterdon
@amyfou Cool! So you get to celebrate Metamas and Astrokah, then?
"Let me show you my conception of the formation of the universe."
*turns on Star Wars* #Monsterdon
this planetarium sequence better go "there are also a kind of stars that are completely made of spiders" or else what is the point of this at all #monsterdon
Accurate quick overview of stellar stuff, but I'm bothered by them showing the Pleiades instead of an H-R diagram.

Then there are the stars we call the "Abby Something" stars. #monsterdon #TheGiantSpiderInvasion
