...Are they not tethered to anything? That seems like a spectacularly stupid idea. #Monsterdon

“Well there’s only one way to find out”

*starts disrobing

#Monsterdon

Oops, saw some office chairs at the station.

Number Two is a little too wistful. #Monsterdon

Space granola! #monsterdon

Anyone else notice MAIN ROCKET is measured in tenths of inches? #monsterdon

Spacesuits also courtesy of ExtremeRestraints.com #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 ☄️🪐 😱

I do appreciate the princess seaming on these space suits tho

why is this guy giving me sting from Dune vibes when he stands up? #monsterdon

@Taweret There's popcorn chicken in space and what else do you really need to know tbh

#Monsterdon

He'll just rub other things in.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon these guys better stop saying boring things and start dying in space bc of monsterdons

"There's one thing that's sure-"

That every year I become more and more certain that--

Oh blow it out your ass. #Monsterdon

"Let's try the auxiliaries"

YEAH, LET'S! PUT SOME MUSIC ON, MAKE IT A REAL PARTY! #Monsterdon

idk what's going on tho

#monsterdon

The two astronauts were talking about how anxious they get during liftoff. When I was a kid, I didn't understand why they always talked about astronauts being brave. They didn't quite explain it's because they're strapped in to a giant bomb and sometimes they explode.

#Monsterdon #ThePhantomPlanet

So the plan is to fly around randomly in space and hope they find it. #monsterdon

The phantom planet has a lovely voice. #Monsterdon

That a pretty good rocket cabin. I like it.
#monsterdon

Phew, for a moment there I was afraid they were going to show the asteroids and spaceship in the same shot! #monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Nice flying boys those were some nasty nuggets #Monsterdon

The flaky deep fried asteroids are back!
#Monsterdon #PhantomPlanet

#monsterdon floating tampon!

That was a close escape from a gang of tough asteroids jealous of their turf #monsterdon

Popcorn flying in formation, run!!! #Monsterdon

I hate it when my ionized trails persist

#monsterdon
#ThePhantomPlanet

"Here they come!"

Walkin' down the street

They get the funniest look from

every eor they meeeeeet

#monsterdon #ThePhantomPlanet

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 ☄️🪐 😱

I forgot - Lunar Base 1 and the ladies with the perfect flip hairstyles are on the moon! That's probably how these astronauts got their mission launched so quickly.

ohh, "azimuth" AND "ecliptic" #monsterdon

"...we'll have to turn into the shower's path.'
"Why yes, I'd love to."
"What?"
"What?"

#Monsterdon #ThePhantomPlanet

that was it? #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Its like Thunderbirds! But without the color.

#monsterdon makonnen is too gay for chapman

14 hours and 22 minutes is apparently a long time to be in space now #monsterdon

#Monsterdon uuuhhhhh they're gay. That's my canon

AZIMUTH

SPACE POPCORN #monsterdon

Looks like they forgot to check the space weather report before venturing out.

#Monsterdon

"This is a capable base run by capable men!" [citation needed]

#Monsterdon #PhantomPlanet

"Mheteors!"

#monsterdon

"Hey, they're on a completely different compositing plane! We'll be fine."

#monsterdon #ThePhantomPlanet

We’re being attacked by chicken nuggets! #Monsterdon

ME-TEOHRS! #monsterdon

Incoming Crunchberries! #monsterdon

For scientist-types they sure have a bad grasp of where lightning strikes.

#monsterdon

The cockpit is definitely haunted now

#Monsterdon

Tooting on the couch across the room from the server that's sitting next to the TV streaming monsterdon 😂📺🛋️

#Monsterdon #PhantomPlanet

Oh, I think "there's only one way to find out" was first said in this movie.

#Monsterdon

Whoops, popcorn chicken attack #Monsterdon

@msh
We dumped the rockets and switched to the shuttle program? #monsterdon

Hmm. Either they fully designed and sewed semi convincing space outfits, or they stole some surplus air force pilot suits didn't they?
#Monsterdon #PhantomPlanet

here comes the popcorn chicken again #monsterdon

Also I'm like nine minutes behind but catching up. Love how crashing into the phantom planet makes people vanish in a cloud of genie smoke.

#Monsterdon #PhantomPlanet

Lunar base one would you just shut up already. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 ☄️🪐 😱

"electrostatic meter is going berserk!"

Agghh I have to do some stuff. But I'm still watching! Don't let that elusive planet get away.

#Monsterdon

We've managed to eliminate everywhere the planet has been from our search radius. That only leaves behind "everywhere the planet hasn't been," narrowing it down to everywhere else in the universe. #monsterdon

"You are completely off-course!"

What is your PROBLEM, Chapman, GEEZE, get your ASS in GEAR! #Monsterdon

It took me a good couple of minutes to understand that his name is Chapman and not Chaplain.

Captain Chaplain would be an *excellent* bit, a missed Major Major opportunity.

#Monsterdon

The rocket launch effect is so close to today’s launches, it’s simply amazing 🤣
#monsterdon

Mr. Wisdom over here
#monsterdon

#monsterdon I guess saying idiot aphorisms is the 50's guy version of disney banter

That "every year I grow more and more convinced" speech from the first officer? That was TOTALLY the blowout for when this movie was MSTed. :D

#Monsterdon

I don't understand why they're all wearing the undergarment for the pressurized flight suits, but not the pressurized flight suit. #monsterdon #phantomplanet

#Monsterdon i know that's just how rockets looked/were imagined to look at the time, but it's giving iron-lung-style "we welded some guys in a big tin can"

wait so are they trying to find this thing or avoid it? #monsterdon

Whoever shot this movie understood the importance of making the white dudes with similar hair have different hair colors so I can tell them apart, even in b&w, and I appreciate that #monsterdon

"You'd seem at ease too if you had 15 year old peyote still in your system."

#monsterdon #ThePhantomPlanet

Have we seen another #monsterdon spaceship that looks more like a classic vibrator than this one?

I need an astronaut to say "I've got a bad feeling about this." #monsterdon

I think this movie holds the record for using the word azimuth the most times. #Monsterdon

they are just waiting to run into something. Seems like a bad plan #monsterdon

I hope they don't pull the mask off the phantom planet and find out it was old Mr. Callahan while I'm making cocoa

#Monsterdon

The FUTURE, where antidepressants have been banned

#monsterdon

Ya know captain? As bad as the ML colorization does for literally everything else in these movies it _fucking nails_ early sci-fi rocket interiors. Have a screenshot for all your McConan needs: #monsterdon

@uptownsongclub Ahem...

#Monsterdon

"It's almost *too* quiet" is just something you have to say in these movies, I guess, regardless of setting #Monsterdon

"And if you do get onto something, report it at once!"
#Monsterdon

@blogdiva I don't see what he sees in him but I respect the game.

#monsterdon #ThePhantomPlanet

I think ExtremeRestraints.com built their spaceship... #monsterdon

#Monsterdon "I hope whatever is out there is gone now. "

Good contribution...

Okay everyone get a beverage and take a drink when they say "azimuth"

#monsterdon
#ThePhantomPlanet

#Monsterdon 👨‍🚀 👩‍🚀 🚀 ☄️🪐 😱

"I hope whatever was out there is gone now" <-- ground commander, wistfully

i want a work outfit with weird noodly bits
#monsterdon

@athena_rising

Hey! It's a homemade stillsuit. We have a budget, you know.

#Monsterdon

Since when are they putting philosophy majors in the space program? #monsterdon

@blogdiva I want sleeve pillows for long flights too

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon you know captain, im going to stare directly into the camera to spout some bullshit that will apparently be the moral of the story

#monsterdon im a reproduction unit

HJow can it be "too quiet" in empty space?

btw this is an hd b&w presentation #monsterdon

They sure are glib about losing multiple ships and crews. #monsterdon

There's so much technobabble and stilted conversation.

#Monsterdon #PhantomPlanet

"You know General, every year I become more and more convinced--"

"Shove it!" #Monsterdon

Not even 10 minutes in, and we're already getting astonaunts philosophizing about the nature of things.

#Monsterdon

the way he gazed at his colleague while saying the thing about focusing on the good and the beautiful

#monsterdon

Wait a minute. Is it... RAXXLA?
