Get the flip outta there.

Your kids?

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

If your hubby invites you to go on a Special Date Weekend just GET AWAY NOW #Monsterdon

as soon as YOU get off your ass and start cleaning the floor, bitch, that's when. #monsterdon

Oh no! They got Bobbi!

#Monsterdon

The annual weekend at the plaza. #monsterdon

yeah, that's good parenting...
#monsterdon

*sits down angrily*

#monsterdon

@moira Mom I just wanted a Pepsi! #monsterdon

It's social scenarios like this that soured the public on the Carter administration #monsterdon

INSTITUTIONED

YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S CRAZY

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

#Monsterdon 🤵 👰 💍 😱 🤵 🤖 😬

Jo. Anna. You have to stop when you see the schoolbus! Even if you're afraid to be robo-ed.

BOBBY NO! I take back what I said about the pencil portraits! :blobfoxcry:
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

NOOO! Not Bobbi :(

#Monsterdon

She's driving that station wagon like it's the Dragula!

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

"You ever make it in front of a log fire?"

"Not with you."

Oooh! Sick burn!

#Monsterdon

Bobbie, I hardly knew ye :( #monsterdon

Oh no don’t go to The Plaza #monsterdon

Sassy Bobby was so much better than frilly Bobby #monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Here, look at the pictures of children swimming that I took without anyone knowing... like a normal person?

Wow the nipples are perky in this movie.
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

She's walking away, and it's important to watch her walk away. #Monsterdon

:( Bobbi's a gonner
#Monsterdon

That she is a photographer, and artist is great for this story. She is a crazy lady with a creative talent. She is expressive her true self. And she's up against... the opposite.
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

I have to admit I couldn’t deal with the creepy and noped out of this week’s #monsterdon

noooooo #monsterdon

The a/c in the gallery is on high, apparently. #Monsterdon

The Plaza is the brain-swap operation lab?

I thought they'd be swapping the dog Fred for a robo-dog before they moved on to the latest wives.

#monsterdon

@amyfou It is like the sublime, the beautiful, and the picturesque but dumber.

#Monsterdon

What’s an ITTVP? #monsterdon

dammit

it was inevitable but

goddammit

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

@JoeyBoughtACola But jean shorts aren't bellbottoms #monsterdon

First guy to make a robot out of that lady gets free beer for a year #monsterdon

Obligatory 1970s mentioning of losing one's virginity strikes yet again.

#Monsterdon

What is it you want from it all? That's the monster in this movie.

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

Lovely > good > nice.

#Monsterdon

@amyfou ahh. Poor Fred! #Monsterdon

"What is it you want from it all? Do you know?"
"I guess I want to be remembered."

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

Jean shorts were huge in the 70s.

How do you amuse the kids? Seems like they are amusing themselves just fine just leave them alone #FreeRangeKids #GenX #Monsterdon

Today on Idiots in Cars

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

#Monsterdon 🤵 👰 💍 😱 🤵 🤖 😬

Joanna and what's his name's kids were basically invisible this whole time how are there this many kids between her and her friend??

i mean, as someone who also doesn't like children, i get it, but like, figure it out dude, they're kids, not aliens. #monsterdon

@lytta I think this is the wait it out stage. #monsterdon

@jonny it's just very confusing how they never resolved the dog thing and then offhand mention he's gone... but i guess i WILL FIND OUT

#monsterdon

@fabio Kind of a theme in #Monsterdon TBH

#monsterdon does gen-x know all their conservative memes about garden hoses are in this movie, is that why it is a classic?

More belly shirts... and annoying children. But belly shirt and sheep dog!
#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

DOG! DON'T LOOK AT THE CAMERA! Goddammit

#monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

#monsterdon they have a zip line! No fair, I always wanted a zip line. Phooey!

The dog is the best part of this movie #monsterdon

Oh no they got Bobby! #monsterdon

What is this tiresome leitmotif about everyone losing their virginity.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤵 👰 💍 😱 🤵 🤖 😬

Granted, this dog is SPECTACULAR!

@lytta doesthedogdie.com has good news here but i won't spoil #monsterdon

Oh my gosh that's such a big shaggy goober of a doggo!

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

I bet she will come back brainswapped from the Plaza.
#monsterdon

Old English Sheepdog!!!! OMG!!
#monsterdon

BIG DOG
#monsterdon

oh they just? never found fred? fred is dead but they didn't explain him being dead????

#monsterdon

@iris I think the point is to do it without leaving her family behind

#Monsterdon

This file from the Internet Archive is very choppy, and the audio keeps changing between the left and right channels. Very disorienting.

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon handsome ex-bf has a full head of hair and eyebrows to match

Noooooo don't do the weekend getaway!!!!!!

#Monsterdon

@Sorl I thought it was Ed. #Monsterdon

survival instincts - establish a shibboleth so you know if either of you has been housewife'd and either needs to grab the other and take her to safety #monsterdon

Spinoff movie with Bobbie, exploring her sexuality.

#TheStepfordWives #Monsterdon
#TheStepfordWives1975

hurhurhur you're never coming back from that trip, miss overalls. #monsterdon

"...you never know what you may walk into"
“Yeah, Frank might be .... busy"

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives

OH NO HER REPLACEMENT WEEKEND oh no

#monsterdon

Lol uhhh #monsterdon #thestepfordwives1975

Waddya callit when something nice happens just before something really really terrible happens?

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

@iris He might actually be the only real nice person but I still think he *looks* evil

(though TBH the way he was getting all touchy-feely behind Joanna's back isn't doing him any favors)

#Monsterdon

They ought to be a whole lot more agitated about Fred going missing imo #monsterdon

@diazona what no, he looks like the only real nice person here! #monsterdon

The dialogue in this movie is horrible. 😂

#Monsterdon

@amyfou
I believe that was an unused name at the time! The Computech we know didn't start till the 90s, right?

#TheStepfordWives #Monsterdon
#TheStepfordWives1975

The chemist looks evil 😢

#Monsterdon

What they really should be asking for anything that might cause people to be suggestible or easily influenced.

#Monsterdon

So the Claude guy invented the thing I have on my Apple phone now? (I said 150 words and now it can approximate my own voice when I can't speak. Hmmmm...)

#Monsterdon #TheStepfordWives1975

Hank was the same guy who was crying or something in the red car, right? #monsterdon

Obviously, this is before chemtrails were blamed for everything

#Monsterdon

The problem is that they are asking for a "cleaner compeller" or something? *sigh*

Asking the right question is seriously hard!

#Monsterdon

Hausfraus! #monsterdon

Men are turning the girls joyful and gay!?

#monsterdon

Right here, I don't understand why he wants to alienate Bobby. Why the secretiveness and the snark?

#monsterdon

@moira that must be the black family that's gonna move into town. #Monsterdon

She would hold out until he told her the plot of his next novel? So like was he a really, REALLY prolific writer? #Monsterdon

You can't just ask a chemist you just met again whether he's happily married. You have to let him marinate first #monsterdon

#monsterdon dude has never heard of amphetamines

I'm getting started very late to #Monsterdon tonight. I've never seen #TheStepfordWives. If I pick it up at 72 minutes into the film, do you think I'll be fine?

"I wouldn't want to drink too much of it"

just what I want to hear about my town's water

#monsterdon

We're just a couple of normal adult women walking through a field to get to this swingset here....

#Monsterdon

Whoever wrote that transition needs an award

#monsterdon #StepfordWives1975

Who is next on the Holly Hobby dress measurement list?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon

I'll get the guy I lost my virginity to help, like normal people.

@blue I'm rooting for them to pack a single bag and run for it

#monsterdon
