There's nothing mysterious about your greed, Captain. #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad #Monsterdon
Oh so very wise: "Captain, he who walks on fire will burn his feet." Gosh, I was unaware of that.
Definitely off-course, Rachid, you're late for a gig with The Oakridge Boys!
Little known fact: Sinbad spent his nights as a British rock star
@dogwelder Iβm hearing Simba and wondering if weβre watching live action Lion King instead.
#monsterdon For all we know, maybe this guy always has weird dreams about dancing girls?
honest question: did old ships like this really have a giant wheel with a direct linkage to the rudder? I feel like gears have existed for a long time, no? #monsterdon
Also you need at least a storm sail, you have no control without some sail. Not much but enough to sustain steerage. Come on movie!
#monsterdon
Back when they used real sound stages and these actors really got clobbered by huge amounts of water.
#monsterdon
Wait, now they're going to Alaska? #monsterdon
Sinbad, get rid of the Yu-Gi-Oh chest piece.
None of the usual suspects put up a root post tonight, so I'm mooching off Ryan twice over here. Though I think I need to go shut my balcony door because I can't hear the TV over the traffic noise and have no idea what is going (that might not actually be related to my hearing though).
YEAH yeah Gamma quadrant 73 years from home blah blah blah
"We are way off-course."
You're way off-SCRIPT buddy. #Monsterdon
Captain, you don't think that you're getting a tiny bit obsessed about this thing? #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad #Monsterdon
Oh wow, realistically sized sun and moon! I'm so used to movies making them look gigantic!
#Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad
These doods look like a dodgy 70s band.
#Monsterdon
only SINBAD ALONE can steer the ship?!
@CactuarJoe Sinmid #monsterdon
@rebeld a bat thing dropped a cursed gold thing that Sinbad decided to wear as a pendant, ghosts appeared, now rain
#Monsterdon
@xerozohar Sinokayish. #Monsterdon
"Marabia, a fictional but real-sounding country" #monsterdon
Sinbaaaaad! You were s'posed to take out the trash tonight...
Sinbad? nah, more Sinmeh. #monsterdon
βIβm givinβ her all I got, capβn! She cannae take much more! Sheβs breaking up!β
βScotty, hold on just a little longer.β
HERE ON LAKE GITCHEEGUMEE
@WhiteCatTamer The people at my local Pride parade are much better costumers.
This is quite the vivid dream. #Monsterdon
Why does someone keep yelling "SALAD!"? #monsterdon
Sinbad arises, ready to choke someone.
Itβs Dynarama Film is AWESOME!
Bad move, Captain! Pay attention to the omens. #Monsterdon
who's pouring buckets of water on us?!?!
Oh no! The fourth Doctor has kidnapped Stella Star! Someone tell Marjo and Hasslehoff!

Allah give me strength to get out of the very thing you put me in due to my hubris.
Religion is /weird/. #Monsterdon
@jadebees Aye matey, it be so.
#Monsterdon
Oh yeah, it's the 70s alright
Ohhhhh, I get it; the AlBATross.
#Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #GoldenVoyage1974 i would *never* be a sailor. just no.
Thundercats! Thundercats! THUNDERCATS
HOOOOoooooooo
Loving the very dramatic dream sequence π€£
Does the eye make that hand a hamsa? (AKA hand of Fatima amulet) #Monsterdon #Sinbad1973 #GoldenVoyage1973
Yeah, I got the eye-hand dancing lady ghost. It was right before I started HRT.
She is quite the fetching portent of doom, is she not? #Monsterdon
Feels very Ken Russell this part
Looks like that medallion conjured up a succubus...or worse.
that's anime level of Dark Vision right there.
and then the lady turned into MASKED BAD MAN
The Inception Voyage of Sinbad
So many dissolves already! #Monsterdon
Itβs so sad that in 1974 they looked hard all over LA & Hollywood and could only find white people to act in their movie π #Monsterdon
That is a lantern sail, very common in the Med and Arab Sea, it is decent sail but you can't get as close to the wind as a Bermuda rig and not as good with the sail abath the beam as the square rig.
#monsterdon
Oh, we're in the fever dream part I guess.
This is very "Help me, Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope!"
Have fun with #Monsterdon everyone! :)
I'm busy with art supplies on this fine March evening.
"Everyone I say this with the highest possible regard for our ca[ptain, but Sinbad is high as balls right now."
WAIT WAIT WAIT THE DANCING GIRL IS DANCING IN FRONT OF THE MASTER FROM MANOS THE HANDS OF FATE NOOOOOOOOOOO
Weβre not even 5 minutes into this film, and itβs already trippy as fuck.
In previous voyages Sinbad won bronze and silver, but this time he achieved the gold medal.
#TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad #Monsterdon
Wait- is this a "complete the pendant" quest? Is he going to end up looking like Flava Flav? #monsterdon
INCOMING POPEHAT RUUUUUUUUUN
"It's just a cheap trinket someone bought at Sinbad World."
visions of stella star
His precious
oh this got *very* trippy *very* quickly
These special effects are fantastic! π
#Monsterdon
Is this actually rough weather? The ship's pretty steady there...
#Monsterdon #TheGoldenVoyageOfSinbad
It's pretty easy to recognize Caroline Munroe even with her face covered. I'd recognize her with her head in a sack. Or my head in a sack.
Or by braille.
Ghostly Caroline Munro would unsettle anyone.
#monsterdon #goldenvoyage1974
SINBAD IN THE LIGHTNING!!!
That looks like a harpie.
Joining late, have we covered the Gold, Voyage, or Synbad part of this movie yet?
time to first tiddy, four minutes.
"I think I'll keep it." What could possibly go wrong? #Monsterdon
"Sinbad Kenobi, you once served my father in the clone wars..."
#monsterdon
This had better be a good curse
Man the bonus tracks on High Adventure are really just ... _odd_. What was Kenny Loggins thinking?
Look dude, I know it's your new trinket and everything, but sleeping with something THAT BIG around your neck can NOT be comfortable. #Monsterdon
#monsterdon a tiny dragon flying over the ocean carries a cursed golden charm that makes you see sexy dancing women, pretty standard stuff so far
Ah, Caroline Munroe, my beloved.
#Monsterdon
Grab this golden sextant to claim your lap dancer #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #GoldenVoyage1974 eye lady's back
Did the flying creature poop out that crazy symbol?
Captain with the nip slip!
Weird unnecessary zoom on the necklace
So... that's what makes the voyage "golden"?
#monsterdon This week's sword and sandal can apparently afford a full orchestra...
and while typing we already have a racist oboe* lick :/
#goldenVoyageOfSinbad
*I'm sure the obeist/oboe player/oboener is a perfectly fine person
Was⦠was that a flying monkey?

wHAT DID WE FUCKING SAY SINBAD #Monsterdon
I demand a sea shanties. #Monsterdon
lol, the captain's greed has fucked them all...
#Monsterdon
That creature looked so much bigger when it was up in the sky. Turns out, itβs very tiny.
It's evil! Oh, but sexsay laydayyyy!

Another great Harryhausen flick tonight on #Monsterdon, "The Golden Voyage of Sinbad" (1973). And yet, with all the stop-motion magic on screen, the most amazing special effect is still Caroline Munro's midriff.
Welcome to the watchalong Caroline Munro's green screened silhouette
