Isn’t that where the engine goes? #Monsterdon #Quatermass1955 #QuatermassXperiment

RE: https://infosec.exchange/@paco/115958945844846623

It’s nice to know the WB didn’t start the habit of casting 36-year-olds as 16-year-olds? #Monsterdon

"How far? There isn't a word." Right, but that's why you can combine words into phrases, like "fifteen thousand miles."

#Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment

uh, sir, that's an engine, not a radio

#monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Her voice is so soft it's otherwordly

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment

@davesdogmaggie 👀 #Monsterdon #TheQuartermassXperiment 🎥🍿

"we've secretly put a RADIO where the ENGINE was! let's see if anyone notices!"

#monsterdon

"Who knows how far? There isn't a word!" Yes, that's because there's a NUMBER.

#monsterdon

Why are the policemen from the UK? #Monsterdon

Who knows how far? Didn't THEY know how far? Wasn't it 1,500 miles?

#monsterdon

How many sedatives is this lady on? She sounds like she's slow talking in her sleep.

@trixter engage the technobabble! #monsterdon

If it's too hot to put water on, why are you standing that close to it? #monsterdon

57 hours without contact, so it was in low orbit and your ground stations failed?

#Monsterdon

Well, this is a very fast pace dialog. It's like watching "gilmore girls" all over again, minus obscure references.

⁉️ THE TRIVIA XPERIMENT 🦋 🏙️💥🐛

Hammer Films made a controversial choice to cast an American as Quatermass. Of course, the strategy was to add interest to the American audience.

Fedi writer of Hammer fanfic @floofpaldi could have come up with many better options.

#TheQuatermassXperiment

Cozy gloves on the balding guy. #monsterdon

Look at the Kombi! Or VW Bus in north America, I think #monsterdon #TheQuatermassXperiment

Rocket landed nose down. Those men are dead.

#monsterdon
#TheQuatermassXperiment

There's a guy casually riding a bike next to the rocket
#monsterdon #TheQuaterMassXperiment

These people look awfully square to be in a VW bus… #Monsterdon #Quatermass1955 #QuatermassXperiment

The scientific team are showing up in a VW micro bus.

Remember when every govt team didn't drive a black Escalade?

All he needs is a smoke and a coffee. He’ll be fine.

#Monsterdon

remember the ending of C. S. Lewis's Out of the Silent Planet where the protagonist barely makes it back to Earth and his spaceship crashes in a field that just happens to be in England and he stumbles into the nearest pub and asks for a pint?
