Alien looks like an Easter Island starter kit. #monsterdon
Some 50’s med that will knock out the flu. #Monsterdon
Welcome to Earth, humans are shitty.
#Monsterdon 👽 👨 🪐 ❌ 🚀 😱
Scientist! Don't beat up Mr. Alien X!
This Mears guy has to die #monsterdon
And now, I shall torture your secrets from you ... for PROFIT!
The alien is from Easter Island?
#Monsterdon #ManFromPlanetX wow sus dude is .... torturing the alien?
not cool man
@Taweret ooh the kind with the white frosting?
#monsterdon First contact did not go well. Woman creature kept on touching her face and... offering me coffee…
#monsterdon First contact goes bad.
What the heck kind of secret does he think he’s gonna get by beating up the X dude???
Sooooooooo... we're doing another "The monster is sympathetic, humanity is the real monster" this week, huh?
Exactly what do you want this alien to write for you? What do you want it to read? #monsterdon
lol - they literally drugged the woman because she can't remain conscious in the presence of "that horrible face."
Scotland is secretly Ravenloft. #Monsterdon
The Man from Planet X and the Terrible, Horrible, No-Good, Very Bad Day
The alien, who "is just as intelligent as us" and who "knows we are trying to come up with a mutual language" sure is just standing there doing nothing. The alien is just furniture.
Turns out the real monster is man.
ok, i really want to hurt this guy
Can’t see a plaid skirt without thinking of Audrey Horne. Thanks David Lynch. Srsly thank you #Monsterdon
dang this one random guy is single-handedly re-balancing the total speaking accent level for the rest of the cast
#monsterdon
Alien got a Flava Flav clock.
Oh, I was wrong - it's Americans that don't use car doors.
#Monsterdon 👽 👨 🪐 ❌ 🚀 😱
could one really pump up the tires on that car with a bicycle pump?
'I offer them my right hand, and….'
#monsterdon The alien just said x squared plus y squared = z squared! Now we're getting somewhere!
Fire - the third universal language
Wait, a standard floor pump on a car tire? Where was the time wipe while this takes an hour to fill the tire bit?
I have trouble believing that our American Hero understand anything this Scotsman is saying.
there's a bunch of guys from america around here for some reason
Don't mention the cocaine. Don't mention the cocaine.
Americans always wear bomber jackets in these old films that take place in GB
Nothing alien can be human to me. #monsterdon
" ' Chemist' in England ", she says.
So why is everyone here saying Scotland? The terrible fake accents?
holy shit, is that a Scottish accent?! #monsterdon
Hey! A Scottish accent! #monsterdon
Your hands? Dude - does your planet know anything about consent? #Monsterdon
"I don't like leaving you here, you being a woman and all. Maybe we should sedate you again." #monsterdon
"An american has been reported to me, you know the Laws..."
Deciphers what the aliens is trying to say:
"We've been trying to get in touch with you about your extended warranty"
Gaslighting and sedating the only woman in the movie
#monsterdon
Alien fart.
He doesn't speak English let's try Geometry EVERYBODY speaks Geometry right? #Monsterdon
Because obviously math *notation* MUST be universal! 🙄
It appears Enid has only two outfits #monsterdon
I say drugstore, you say chemist ...
go to sleep everyone i'll just go ahead and derive a universal language from geometry and i'll fill you in tomorrow #monsterdon
woooooooob owooooooooob
#monsterdon
"Oh dear, this is a planet where the meat flaps and does the communiating. Oh dear."
#Monsterdon 👽 👨 🪐 ❌ 🚀 😱
I'll try communicating with this creature in geometry: 🔳 ⭕ 📐 !
Old man will be ok, because he is wearing the Shawl of Coziness
How do you say, in geometrical terms, “What’s your name who does your hair?”
#Monsterdon
Don't worry about leaving me alone. I'll be fine. Trust me.
subtext: I hope this alien is dtf.
We drugged her to get her out of the script #Monsterdon
Just sedate a major character off screen. #Monsterdon (In actuality, Enid actor had gig at Pasadena Playhouse that week and could not be on set. Now you know—behind the scenes. 🌈)
"with your superior alien geometry knowledge, I'll have the world in my pocket" #monsterdon
the alien is my friend
Resting Monday face.
The alien could have communicated with the woman more effectively. But this is the 1950's and the men decided the best course of action was to sedate her, so the earth is fucked.
Wonder if the actor is actually in the suit at this point, or if the costume is just propped up in a corner. Ah, there, he's moving ...
I wonder how difficult it will be to explain capitalism to the man from planet X? #Monsterdon
Going to try to make the alien sign up for a time share. #MONSTERDON
@springdiesel
Well. That's A difference. Definitely not the only.
"Ok mister alien, I'm going to give you an art test. Can you draw this turtle, or this pirate?"
I was on board with the geometry thing, but like, in the form of "shapes" and "pictures"
not "complex formulas" like he's not gonna know algebra, dude. or our number system. Not that your creepy ass seems interested in that. #monsterdon
Did you discover a means of communicating?
Dude. I'm just pulling out a notepad. Why would you leap to that conclusion?
#monsterdon
This movie has been terrifying! #monsterdon
FYI Elon Musk wears a jacket like that a lot...
No, you don't raise your hands and then step towards the person holding the weapon.
That's a "universal gesture" for getting shot in the face.
Lucky for you the alien can't breathe.
"he" is carrying a lot of weight too
He's not drawing "geometry" on that paper is he.
The alien is still hissing. #monsterdon
@pngwen Based on how I feel after eating a bag of jelly beans, I'd take that deal
I keep expecting to see Han Solo somewhere in that wall. #Monsterdon
@diazona See, we JUST learned this!
I guess geometry is what you go with in a time before cat videos. #monsterdon
"this creature represents an obviously superior race"
Can't turn the valve on his air tank
excuse me professor what the fuck do you mean we're going to talk to it with geometry, and why aren't you in bed? #monsterdon
sign language
#monsterdon
#themanfromplanetx
#monsterdon The universal language: geometry! Uh, whatever happened to those universal gestures?
*teaches alien to draw a duck* #Monsterdon
POLL: Which would you rather have, the scientific ability to travel to other planets, or a chic leather jacket
maybe got sketch wrong there, but if we don't act fast, Scotland will be choked with Scotsmen
Weird fades. 😂 #Monsterdon
this is like me in a staff meeting #Monsterdon
@strangefour oh haha I was about to post literally the same thing
As an astronomer, I really have to mention the telescope is pointed towards a small window. Kind of hard to track anything in the sky like that!
"Superior" is doing a lot of work here.
#Monsterdon #ManFromPlanetX "the basic and universal language: geometry"
hahaha fuck yeah i *smashed* geometry in 8th grade gimme that sciene language
On his planet, they play Tangerine Dream records at 2rpm.
Geometry is *definitely* not the universal language #monsterdon
"By George, you've hit it!"
I'm gonna draw triangles at him! #Monsterdon
The Man from Planet X speaks Geometry!
Okay, math for communication. Plausible but good luck with that with what you have on hand.
Geometry is the universal language. Just ask the woman in Arrival
Yeah. Let's make him do math homework. #Monsterdon #TheManFromPlanetX
#Monsterdon 👽 👨 🪐 ❌ 🚀 😱
Alien X's giant head and jug ears are delightful
