@Binder CLICK HERE TO READ MORE! DOCTORS HATE HIM!
You don't see many nautical scenes done totally on a soundstage.
The figurehead is just pissed off cuz her skin is so dry. Get her some moisturizer!! #monsterdon
Is the figurehead monster lady part cat? She's knocking stuff off shelves.
BINGO #monsterdon
awesome stop-motion effects
chanting/praying
hero is given a quest
hand drawn lightning
wine
The ensorcelled figurehead has clearly had enough of Sinbad's ship.
#Monsterdon #GoldenVoyage1974 cat behavior: shoving things off surfaces
@xerozohar Hera's back and SHE'S PISSED #Monsterdon
βAnd how does lemur skin reflect the sea?β βPixies, βVelouriaβ
Major pluses of this particular haunted figurehead:
- No talking.
- Murder.

Wooden you like to take a little swim? #Monsterdon #Sinbad1973 #GoldenVoyage1973
@Binder the whenever-this-is equivalent of those cars with the massive GPSes in the dashboard
last time we saw one of these on a ship it answered questions

You have to wear the fancy cape for this incantation..
Virtually no one does wild crazy eyes better than Tom Baker
Those famous Tom Baker googly eyes <3 #Monsterdon
They say it gets cold at sea so dress in layers
Tom - he's laughing at the superior intellect
I can't see shit in this helmet.
#monsterdon
@kcarr2015 I remember being enthralled watching this as a young child.
#Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad
OO or hey, you know what would be REALLY badass? Harryhausen Allah. #Monsterdon
Surprise! That ship is really...
There's very little plot for so much dialog. There's very little character development for so much jibber jabber.
this is Karl The Fog's guest appearance.
Vibe steering
Now would be a good time to call on Allah for some guidance
"We can't follow them in there - our shields and deflectors will be useless!"
Feeling his way through seems like a good way to shoal the keel off your ship. Use the charts. #Monsterdon #Sinbad1973 #GoldenVoyage1973
There's a lot of shirtlessness on this ship.
What's the skin cancer rate of these sailors?
@MatthewTitus88 a lot of talking in dubious accents #monsterdon
fuck that mask has to be hot #monsterdon
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
Hm. Comic relief character given an important job. I wonder if that will backfire.
The wit is mightier than the ship
That ship! it looks like a blue police box! #monsterdon
@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
At least he said please.
β¨#Monsterdonβ© β¨#GoldenVoyage1973
βYouβre no oneβs slave. Now fetch me a drinkβ
Siiigh
No, the please doesnβt make it better
Yeah... a bit early in the millennium for abolitionism. #Monsterdon #Sinbad1973 #GoldenVoyage1973

Carolyn Munroe, Do not be frightened by my anachronistic feathered haircut.
Sinbad looking increasingly British as the movie goes on
Sinbad is the least horny sailor that ever sailed the seven seas in the history of sailing or seas.
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
