Yeah so how did he survive that crash landing without being liquefied? #monsterdon

Turns out farmer John's garden tap has rather low water pressure

#Monsterdon

A *lot* of reaction shots for something apparently not that exciting. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

Who would send football players into space?

#monsterdon

That one hose wasn't even trying :/

#Monsterdon #QuatermassXperiment

Not a lot of water making it to the ship? #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

they're gonna squirt that monster/person right back into that rocket you know

Did his pronunciation of his name change? #Monsterdon

Uh, got some weak pressure on a couple of those hoses #Monsterdon

I don't think spray water inside the spaceship is a good idea, but it worked
#monsterdon
#theQuartermassXperiment

It would be funny if his first words were "oil can..."

#Monsterdon

Yes very safe to enter the rocket
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

I'm the boss not a fireman!
#Monsterdon

Those are not seconds

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

i see everyone just chose to ignore that "go the fuck home" command

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

i'm sure they'll love being greeted with fire hoses

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

That was the longest 10-second countdown ever.
#monsterdon

@cherizilla Is he from Worcestershire? #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

Really striking set. #Monsterdon

@Violinknitter Sounds like me with a microwave burrito.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

slowest countdown on earth

That hosing down surely is doing nothing
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

Quatermass is a real team player. #Monsterdon

You went to space and returned. Congratulations! You get to drink from the fire hose! #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Fast motion fire hose deployment!

#Monsterdon #QuatermassXperiment

Quaterass is a hard-boiled tough-talking big-risk-taker scientist, apparently
#monsterdon

JASPION! #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

#monsterdon Gay porn... squeaky hoses... prophylactics of extraordinary magnitude. Oink.

THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO! #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Klaatu Barada Nik- ah wait sorry i landed in the wrong movie #monsterdon

Everyone off the field but every thing on it

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

That's some foley

#Monsterdon

That could have melted into a singular astronaut pudding.

#monsterdon
#TheQuatermassXperiment

#monsterdon

Let's all stand around the rocket and suck in as much Hydrazine into our lungs as we can. The science pipe have already doomed us.

I don’t understand how he sent a whole entire rocket into space with no idea how to cool it down in a timely manner once it landed

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon I would say "You will not go to space today", but I think they've already been.

#Monsterdon 🚀 🪐 👽 🚀 🌍 🥼 😱

Aww I like they way they painted char marks on the rocket in little swoopy stripes

why wont these ignoramuses just obey humphrey fauxgart

#Monsterdon

To be clear, they Lithobraked in England. #Monsterdon

All the necessities of life: oxygen, glucose, morphine. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

don't argue with me, i know what i'm doing

if only it were that easy to just get shit done

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

#monsterdon it's Tomas from Daft Punk!

this is a very competently orchestrated scene for a monsterdon movie.

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Prepare to believe folks can open a door

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

“Don’t argue with me. I know what I’m doing” #Monsterdon

yes let's give them oxygen and morphene as a welcome home present

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

I bet this guy would be a hoot at a blackjack table. #Monsterdon

ah, another performance by The Jangles.

#monsterdon

Ah, morphine, bringing out the good stuff!

#Monsterdon

Are the aliens on fire? Why the hoses?
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

Coy-ta-mus? #Monsterdon #Quatermass1955 #QuatermassXperiment

Hose on the left was making it about half way to the rocket. #monsterdon

Could this be the first instance of "countdown angle swapping"? #monsterdon

...there's a remote control? Now he tells us?

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Quatermass really does have big techbro energy.

#monsterdon

@jadebees@sunny.garden Showing things costs money!

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

@catzilla

Direct line from bicycles to rockets. I'll allow it.

#Monsterdon

Oh, they're IN the UK. So, why are there only three British people and everyone else is American? #Monsterdon

Volkswagen Radio Van.

#monsterdon #TheQuartermassExperiment

tapping has stopped

when my neurodivergent ass is finally satisfied with the bouncing

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

ohhh

THIS IS ROCKET QUENCH

#monsterdon

That’s pronounced “Quatermiss”

#Monsterdon #QuatermassXperiment

Marsh looks a lot like John Cage to me

#monsterdon

"Dammit, man, I'm a scientist!"

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Apollo 1 vibes

#Monsterdon

@CactuarJoe LOLOLOL

#monsterdon

We've got all the good stuff, oxygen, morphine, water, a british field full of stuffy characters.... #monsterdon

QUADRANTMESS

#monsterdon #TheQuartermassExperiment

When all of a sudden the lid fell off... (War of the Worlds)

#monsterdon #Quatermass1955

Don't argue with me, I know what I'm doing! I'm a sciente who will HOSE DOWN SOME ALIENS #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

So it's "QUAY-ter-mass"

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Kwatermass? #Monsterdon

@LingLass Employing the new Canute Drive, which employs the power of the tides to control gravity. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

They just keep saying “you bastard” over and over. Any idea who they mean? #Monsterdon

kwaitermiss? what?

#monsterdon

“I launched it, and I brought it back” #Monsterdon

Lee. Rico. Youngblood. #Monsterdon

"We can hear you. Can you hear us?" Great. Now it's a Teams meeting. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

It's pronounce kwatimus

#monsterdon
#TheQuatermassXperiment

Unsactioned space flight. So this is where Reed Richards got the idea. #Monsterdon

Just imagine the paperwork that had to be done so that we could have day and night

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

I see the "move fast and break things" approach was a thing even back in the 50s #Monsterdon

Quatermass is American? Whut? I don't remember him being American in him and The Pit.
#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

SCULLAY

#monsterdon

This guy is giving just a few rich asshole vibes. #Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment #Quatermass1955

We can hear you, can you hear us! Can you hear me? Is this a Zoom call?
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

Quaytermiss? #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

The scientists are going to be sanctioned for the unsanctioned launch!

#Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment

#monsterdon

The unknown is always a risk!

Oh, yeah...

Wait isn't the engine in a microbus in the back, where's the room for the radio?

#monsterdon

Brian Donlevy and a posse of British character actors in a Vanagon. #SCIENCE #Monsterdon

I'm pretty sure that the rocket would cool off faster than that.

(Though would accept an argument that I'm wrong)

#Monsterdon

Tapping, like something gently rapping, rapping at my rocket door #monsterdon

quatermass plays by his own rules!

#monsterdon

Yea, Blake. Fuck you.

#monsterdon
#TheQuatermassXperiment

Her voice is so soft it's otherworldly

#Monsterdon

You know it's a 50s B movie by how fast the police-adjacent people talk #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Why they had to bring the radio so close of the rocket?
#monsterdon
#theQuartermassXperiment

"Q-1, Q-1! Hewwo?"

#Monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

It had been 1,500 miles, Judith. Already covered that.
