#Monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

The Monster that Challenged the World… to a set of skill testing questions, involving compound interest rates!

#Monsterdon

Intro credits with music insinuating danger and mayhem!

#Monsterdon

Yeah, yeah, Jules V. Levy and friends present this, but Blake presents themselves this plate of nachos

#Monsterdon

And it's #Monsterdon awayyyyy.

I collected more stamps #monsterdonbingo

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

This movie fucked off into the road. It is California, after all...

Thank you to @miru for the stream! Good fun and preshow too! #Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

I bet maps guy was Hans Conried’s acting teacher.

#monsterdon

End credit sequence has ladybug girl swimming and discovering the other kids heads.

#monsterdon

@Lazarou @Taweret @ryan I could believe that

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

🦖#MONSTERDON Goodbye!

I've loved this movie since I was a kid. But it was even better with your Real-Time Film Analysis! Thank you everyone! Tonight's scroll was crazy. Could not acknowledge all the great posts I saw buzz by.

❤️ And thank you @Taweret for hosting! Tonight's feature really got everyone out of their shell!

🅱️ and thanks cherizilla@hypertext.monster for the Bingo card! My favorite: "The Folly of Youth". Very philosophical.

#Monsterdon

It needed more mollusk stock footage.

Honestly, for a crappy '50s monster movie, it was…competent?

#Monsterdon

I’m surprised I haven’t heard of this film before. Not extreme enough in either its high or low qualities, I guess. But pretty solid, until the last scene. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Glorf Glorf… Eat the cast… we'll provide the A1 sauce. Get to it…

@Lazarou and not much beyond San Diego

#Monsterdon

That film was alright! Goofy, dumb fun. Glad I watched it #monsterdon

All the monster bug slug things are dead now so Sandy can go swimming again which was of course the Entire Dilemma

THE END

Today we learned all about sea monster spooge, leaving the thermostat alone and most importantly Proposition 14A!

Thanks for the very special Easter #Monsterdon @Taweret !

Why didn’t they just throw salt at it? I guess because it was a sea snail?

#Monsterdon

And that's a wrap. Thanks to @Taweret for hosting, @cherizilla for bingo, @ryan for the stream, and @JoeWynne for trivia. And shout-out to all the newbies who followed @jonny for LLM dunks and got...this.

#Monsterdon

@miru thanks for the stream!

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

In the epilogue the commander tells ladybug girl that it's safe to swim now. Then the movie ends.

#monsterdon

@randy_s

He read in The Monster Manual that it is +5 against melee damage.

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

"Yes, Sandy, you can go swimming again... it's not that the danger's passed, it's just that we think you should experience the consequences of your actions" #Monsterdon

And BOOM! Just like that it’s over (Thank Goodness!)

#Monsterdon

@steggy Neither the axe nor the mop got used. I am disappoint.

#monsterdon

The child will inexplicably suffer no traumatic after effects from this experience.

#monsterdon #TheMonsterWhoChallengedTheWorld

And the monster wasn't bullet proof after all!

-fin
#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #MonsterMiru

Waitaminute. The trailer I saw showed a kaiju sized monster.

I call shenanigans.

#Monsterdon

And then they fucked off into the....oh #monsterdon

Didnt hate this movie about snails fighting us imperilaism. Sad ending though when the snails lost #monsterdon

I assume she's now going to marry all the guys with guns that actually did something? #Monsterdon

Ah, a classic abrupt-but-not-too-abrupt ending

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

I might need lots of therapy though. #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #Monsterdon

Well thank you all so much for #monsterdon this week!

Extra special thanks to @Taweret for coordinating our shindig, @cherizilla for the bingo, @JoeWynne for the trivia, and YOU for making it super fun!

See you next week!

maybe wait to allow swimming in the radioactive water #monsterdon

1950s. We deny & repress all trauma. Yay. #Monsterdon

The brand promotion on those wetsuits is weird.
#Monsterdon

Clearly not a Godzilla grade monster, given the effects of gunfire.

Oh, sudden ending.

Thanks, #monsterdon gang!

Here come the pincers through the door!!

#Monsterdon

Will nobody think of the bunnies?

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Academy Award for the creature’s death scene.

#Monsterdon

The Monster(s) That Just Sort Of Went About Life Not Issuing Challenges Of Any Kind #monsterdon

Glad he did think to wrap his hands in a towel while holding a thin flexible steam pipe ... be he'd still lose skin on his palms by then.

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

ty for joining, everyone!!

#monsterdon

Panicky, sweaty, ineffectual, yeah, this guy just *screams* "love interest".... no wonder incels want to go back to the '50s #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Use the axe! No, this movie is all about the goo!

ITS OVER

#monsterdon
#ChallengedTheWorld1957

Is it hot steam? Cool mist? We'll never know!

#monsterdon #TheMonsterWhoChallengedTheWorld

"C'mon Sandy, let's go fuck off into the ocean, like a real #Monsterdon movie sh-- oh hey, bad The End, show the ocean D:< #Monsterdon

I personally would want to be sure it was safe to swim but run time is up! Good times at the old #monsterdon  

I think you got him

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

These are scientifically accurate water snail death screams, right? #Monsterdon

Which lab gas supply did he break open?

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

The fire axe. Just a suggestion. They're vulnerable to poking damage, we know that. #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld #Monsterdon

OMG now I remember this movie. I saw it as a child and that death scene made me sad.

You’re crying!

#Monsterdon

That fire extinguisher has pretty amazing capacity actually. #Monsterdon

The other 10% of the acting is the death throes of the monster

#Monsterdon

okay, you don't grab the broom or the mop to try and defend yourself. you just huddle there? Can't let the woman do anything in old movies...

Also why would you go for the fire extinguisher and not the axe?

#Monsterdon

Bullets WILL stop 'em!

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Thank you for watching NO MORAL THEATER.

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Aaannnndd, we're done!

What have we learned?

1. Canals are a really bad idea

2. Fire extinguishers are good for more than fire

3. Navy guys will put their hands in anything

Happy Sunday everyone! Thanks for the laughs! 😂 Thanks to @Taweret for hosting!

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Just some random gas they were working w/ here in the lab, nbd #Monsterdon

Thank goodness he found the tube of random stuff

#Monsterdon

Chekov's axe remains unused!

#Monsterdon

One of these days, I'll figure this whole #Monsterdon thing out. I mean, I get the general concept, but I never know what movie everyone is watching and when.

I'm always reminded as it seems to be in progress.

How soon we forget to go for the eyes...

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Maybe the snail just wants to play

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Is that a sampled donkey sound? #monsterdon

Okay, the fire extinguisher. We're getting closer.

#Monsterdon

Normally you kill it with fire not fire SUPPRESSION #Monsterdon

TFW, you, as the monster, need to carry the girl, but you only have tiny, tiny arms.

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

@diazona should have stopped for breakfeast so he can think past hunger #monsterdon

There's an AX right there. Grab the fucking AX. It's a giant snail, not a fire. #Monsterdon

Did fire extinguishers used to be cold?

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

Sure, ignore the GIANT AXE and pick up the fire extinguisher, are we sure he isn't a mollusc in an Eggar suit like in Men In Black?? #Monsterdon

FFS the fire axe is RIGHT THERE
#Monsterdon

Spunk monster down!

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld1957

Monster that: "Candy gram!"
Main character who's name I forget, "I know I can stop the monster with Chekovs fire extinguisher next to this axe."
#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

okay, Twil is a dumbass, but i appreciate that this movie isn't just shooting the creature. some creativity with weapons goes a long way in a Monsterdon for me.

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

I swear this car's model name is "Sorry"

#monsterdon

Have you ever been in a room, not including a theme bar, with an ax hanging on the wall? If so, why was it haging there. #monsterdon

Doesn't anyone have a giant bucket of salt?

#monsterdon #TheMonsterWhoChallengedTheWorld

That axe would make a pretty good poking stick if you turned it around or took the blade off.

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Nobody light a match

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

CO2, MAN!

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

@steggy cant risk hurting the guy in the snail suit #monsterdon

"Close your eyes, honey! I want you all watching to close your eyes, too. No one should have to watch this..."

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Sure, throw random lab stuff at the monster. Makes as much sense as the rest of the science in this #monsterdon

Try the deet, you fool! #Monsterdon

Oh yeah mutate it with mysterious lab chemicals, that will help...

#Monsterdon
#TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Close your eyes and think of christmas.

The christmas that we watched your father burn and die as he crashed his plane.

#monsterdon #TheMonsterWhoChallengedTheWorld

Checkov's Axe! #Monsterdon

The doctor hears roaring & calls "Gail". That implies so much about their history together. #Monsterdon

fist fight the snail #monsterdon

Gimme the news I got a bad case of loving you

#monsterdon #ChallengedTheWorld1957

I spy an axe on the wall. Just sayin'

#Monsterdon

I think this movie may have inspired the shining axe scene

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheMonsterThatChallengedTheWorld

Well, he did always want to be a fireman..
