This bane guy's a mumble douche.
"Speak up, we can't hear you through your daft helmet, you helmet!"
#Monsterdon
Sinbad and Caroline Munro are fighting for who can show the most cleavage. He's going for the most plunging neckline, but she counters with volume.
#Monsterdon #GoldenVoyageofSinbad
A man, huh
Good to clarify that because, y'know, most sailing ships are piloted by fish and sea monsters
This would've been a great place to insert a musical number. All the singing and dancing about the folks Sinbad had killed. #Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageofSinbad π₯πΏ
Ah yes, me, my new freewoman crewmate, and her 2573368 outfits.
#Monsterdon
The slave girl got to bring multiple outfits? How did she even have multiple outfits to bring (unless she was a fantastically expensive slave, but that would imply the son was worth even more so now I'm even more confused).
#monsterdon Autoslavery huh? Uh... well, funny⦠;)
Batman? Isn't that a city in Turkiye? #Monsterdon #Sinbad1973 #GoldenVoyage1973
@CactuarJoe to be fair, no one else can get off the boat either
The wit is mightier than the ship
Hm. Comic relief character given an important job. I wonder if that will backfire.
@cd0 "What if you were born property, but I came along and slightly upgraded that status? Wouldn't you be grateful?"
#Monsterdon #GoldenVoyage1974
Probably some fisherman sailing at night in eel infested waters...
I wonder if they are using the same wind we are using?

Haroun made the tail! The hash head's got potential. #Monsterdon
Well they've put the blue filter on, that must mean it's night time. #Monsterdon
βYouβre no oneβs slave. Now fetch me a drinkβ

No, the please doesnβt make it better

Carolyn Munroe, Do not be frightened by my anachronistic feathered haircut.
Sinbad looking increasingly British as the movie goes on
Ah the day-night scenes abound
not going to comment on tonight's #monsterdon other than to note that it is excellent, I'm a little surprised I've never seen this before
Store-brand Eric Astrada here #monsterdon
villainous tom baker gets me every time #monsterdon
Ya that's a vibe. Work is terrible π
So the one actor whoβs actually a person of color gets to play a nitwit? Thatβs a great choice, movie
Okay that bit was actually funny, well done :D #Monsterdon
Unknown dangers... If they are unknown, how they know?
#Monsterdon
βThis boy is a genius.β And just like that I have decided that I love Sinbad! #Monsterdon
There better be a shit tonne of lemurs in lemuria. Otherwise there will be disappointment.
#Monsterdon
Lemuria: would you rather fight one Godzilla-sized lemur or one hundred lemur-sized Godzillas?
"I'll take 'Costumes You'd Never Wear in the Desert' for 200, Alex."
#monsterdon Kinda a sucky merchant. Take my slave, take my son, I'll pay you! βWell, great, that isn't a burden for my boat, or my pants huh?β
Does a telescope count as an anachronism?
#monsterdon leaning extremely hard into the Persian stereotype of speaking in proverbs
"Lemuria?"
Yeah, there's a limited number of mythological lost lands the public's gonna recognize. #Monsterdon
LEMURIA?! Why would you want to go there? #Monsterdon
"Every voyage has it's own flavor."
"I hope this one is hot honey bbq."
#monsterdon
*ominous musical sting*
"Every voyage has its own flavor. This one is peach and cinnamon with a hint of vanilla."
#Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad
@trixter we all would. This is #Monsterdon after all.
#monsterdon here we go, took half an hour but we're finally voyaging
Trust in Allah. Take the cannoli.
oh c3po's coming with? good, they can always use another protocol droid

omg I want to retroactively get a job as horse handler on this movie I want to kiss them alllllllll
Helm, set course for the Crab Nebula. Warp three. #Monsterdon
a strange trip? Like when does Sinbad have normal trips? #monsterdon
"Every voyage has it's own flavor." THis one tastes like cheese. #monsterdon
You may recognize tonight's delectable eye candy from Starcrash. Caroline Munro also happens to be an Advisor to the Ray and Diana Harryhausen Foundation. #Monsterdon
You guys complained so I brought you a dancing girl for the trip.#Monsterdon
The ancient Arabian business custom: sealing a deal with a high five.
#Monsterdon
I offer the hypothesis that the woman would be a bit of a distraction on that ship. #monsterdon
i had a phone call and was going to ask if i missed anything important but i'm going to guess the answer is no
Wait⦠we seal deals with high fives in this time period?
β¨#Monsterdonβ© β¨#GoldenVoyage1974β©
These accents! Who is from where? Who can say?
#Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad
The origins of the high five
I'm sure your son will make a great anchor
This guy, really wants someone to take his son off his hands doesn't he. We're up to 400 gold coins and slave girl.
YOu mean that white girl holding the tray? #Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageofSinbad π₯πΏ
βIs that a tattoo of an eye on your hand?β
βNo. I just like drawing it on my hand when Iβm bored in class.β
How does she keep her palm eyeball from smudging? #Monsterdon
the clarinets of humor.
Yes this are accurate fight noises
βDonβt run too far, Sinbad! The set isnβt that big!β
#Monsterdon
Sinbad trying to get the tiny dragon is like me and the cat trying to corner a mouse. π #Monsterdon
now I know who he reminds me of....
Also, watching this movie when I just started slowly making my way through Edward Saidβs Orientalismβ¦ itβs, um, interesting
There is a notable lack of monsters smashing things in this movie
The most interesting thing in the movie just turned to ashes.... #monsterdon
The vizier is pretty quick to use any fire around, good on him, seeing he was so hurt by the fire before, facing his fears and stuff. #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad #Monsterdon
This movie's just a commercial for Expedia's Dubai office. #Monsterdon
a homunculus, yep
#monsterdon
Admit it; they built this movie around a book of proverbs, brilliant fashion, and facial hair.
#Monsterdon
alriiight, ultimate destination island π€ #monsterdon
An ultimate destination! Like an all expenses paid trip to Paris Disneyland!
Fun fact, this actor played Zardoz
A race and a duel: not the same thing, Sinbad
How did the Homunculus fly into a window in a deep basement chamber?
Thinking about Cinemawareβs video game Sinbad and the Throne of the Falcon (1987) for the Amiga. I guess they didnβt get Jim Sachs to do the art for this one.
And THAT's why you don't rake the leaves. #Monsterdon
Geez took 'em long enough to notice
@klu9 It's so obvious that he was saying that!
more dancing for NO REASON!
The messenger guy looking over the shoulder at the message...that's the Government that is...
This is an Arabian Nights Adventure!
Yeah, don't let them get absolute power that'll go badly for everybody. Where have I heard that before? #Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad
There's music playing but all the clapping is WILDLY off beat. That bugs the shit out of me. #Monsterdon
Commercial sign :(
That's why a lot of guys became sailors, the dancing girls. #Monsterdon
Did he just call him a "Sea Gherkin"?
#monsterdon
Sinbad succeeds on his perception check!
The map to the nebulous treasure has been discovered.
#Monsterdon #GoldenVoyageofSinbad
I clearly heard him ask "how to get the turd?" #Monsterdon #GoldenVoyage1974
