Its an unconventional hearse, I'll give it that. #Monsterdon

The meteors are trying to sabotage the roadways! #Monsterdon

It's perfectly normal to fill your car with Mountain Dew Code Red. It makes the pistons faster.

#monsterdon

Ya know, most people wouldn't direct a film like this. But John Sherwood.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon that looks safe

Ooooh, obsidian meteorite.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

@rallias I admire the spirit 😀

#Monsterdon

@SRLevine wait, there are plots? #Monsterdon

So, this is the earth...

#monsterdon

@moira I feel like I have heard that explosion sound so many times

#monsterdon

deadly OBSIDIAN.
#monsterdon

The insurance adjuster approaches the accident scene #monsterdon

this is a gag about the underfunded federal government #Monsterdon #monolithmonsters1957

We’re just passed the credits and they’re already shoving a woody in our faces.

#monsterdon

Now it's The Good Place...

Do any of these rocks seem.... sinister to you?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon don't feed the rocks after midnight

and DONT get them wet

@brucetheknife One could be halfway to bingo already, if one were playing a "generic space movie tropes" card

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon @moxxi left already, she's like not again, I'm outta here (last time was godzilla)

Oh shit, cheese it! It's the Department of the Interior! We're screwed if they find the hidden compartment in the asteroid! #Monsterdon

Gee, I had to use the outside handles to open the door from the inside on my Jeep, too

#Monsterdon #MonolithMonsters

@diazona I disagree with anyone who calls me wise, so I like to believe it made it.

#Monsterdon

@foolishowl Of course! #Monsterdon

Hope he didn't mix up the water can with the gas can!

#Monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

motherfucker don't just open a boiling radiator like that you want your face melted off? #monsterdon

@Taweret sus

#monsterdon

I am also sought after and poured over by scientists of all nations.

#Monsterdon

Meteors are the billionaire submersibles from space #monsterdon

Ooh, dripping dripping crossbar. Isn't this how you make hummus?

#monsterdon

So... meteors are communist?

#Monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

@rallias lolol

I suppose it would

(though prevailing wisdom is that it probably vaporized before making it to space, but that's no fun)

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon “The meteorite lies dormant…” as rocks usually do. I mean, they have dormancy down to an art.

One of my favorite things about subtitles is seeing how they describe the music and sound effects, and what they choose to describe. So this starts with some good "(ominous music)".

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon they come for us! Aiiiiieeee! Someone secure the meteorologists!

#TheMonolithMonsters starts with a spinning black and white globe as a voiceover explains how meteors work and that sometimes they make craters, over pictures of rocky landscapes. We then get a Disproportionately Grandiose Orchestral Music and then, goodness gracious, a Great Ball of Fire slams into the earth!

We then get a credit sequence where all the words are written in a goofy Halloween font, so i say that this movie is off to a good start so far.

#Monsterdon

Excellent opening credits font AND excellent Danger Brass on the soundtrack. <3

#Monsterdon

(tense dramatic orchestral music)

#monsterdon

Awesome monstrous font! #Monsterdon

#monsterdon my autism feels gross about this font. Idk why but it feels wrong

@randy_s lol the big yellow marble. nice colourization #monsterdon

I've just learned that meteorites are capable of waiting, and now I feel a strange kinship with them. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon music and sound effects good so far! 😂

high quality 50s scary noises, i like it

#monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

A cartoon narrator? Most of the junk that falls on earth are tiny and pitiful who shrink away at the tiniest burn.
#Monsterdon #MonolithMonsters

Say goodbye to that camera!

#monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

Man, custom rock font! Swank. #Monsterdon

Cheesy space graphics, check! Overly serious voiceover, check! #Monsterdon

What a title card! 👏👏

#Monsterdon

oh, "another strange calling card" - i heard it as "another strange smelling card"

#monsterdon

Love the font!

#Monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

Oh, good. It blew up the movi----DAMMIT.

#monsterdon

1962! Late for a B&W film.

#monsterdon

Hey, I know that crater. It's amazing close up. #Monsterdon

I want to explore 'the limitless reaches of Space'

#monsterdon

#monsterdon

"METEORS! Fucked up, huh? Anyway, I'm Rod Serling." #Monsterdon

Orson Welles?

Wait, if the manhole cover returned, would it be a meteor then?

#Monsterdon

It's a movie about craters.
#Monsterdon

Now now now!

#TheMonolithMonsters

They look like spermatozooa trying to find the egg #monsterdon

it's substance unknown, but sticky. #monsterdon

"From infinity, they come: Meteors."

#monsterdon

Wow, earth really needs some skin cream

#monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

#Monsterdon Is this a movie or a 1960s science film meant to torture 8th graders?

#Monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

I love documentaries about meteors from the 1950s! #Monsterdon

@LingLass yes

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon Happy to report that this documentary on meteors is so far 200% accurate!

#Monsterdon someone build a wall to keep these meteors out

#Monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

#monsterdon from infinity, they come

As a vegetarian, I am annoyed by pronouncing "meteors" as "meatiers". 😃 #monsterdon

@thatdawnperson it's so good!

#monsterdon

Ladies! Would you like something a little Meteor?

#monsterdon

*shows a picture of what look to be sinkholes/karsts*

#monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

A lot of movies start with astronomy lessons.

#Monsterdon

"From time immemorial, filthy aliens have thrown rocks at us poor little humans!" #Monsterdon

Hey all, will try to participate, but as usual don't be surprised if I drop out if/when I lose the plot (thanks adhd).

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheMonolithMonsters

The real enemy? SPACE DUST.
