i know the kaiju suits are hot and heavy but how fun would it be to smash miniature buildings like that #monsterdon

blocking someone misusing the hashtag. and nothing of value was lost #monsterdon

the best part of #monsterdon is when kaiju nick fury appears at the end of the movie to recruit the kaiju for the next movie

@bunnyhero I don't really think that character's lines were the main problem with the production #monsterdon

I mean, I would have been okay if they just pulled in Mothra in the last two minutes, but no #monsterdon

So how will they keep from hurting the brown gargantua? Oh just kidding, there was a volcano, byeeee #monsterdon

I don't know why they didn't include scenes from The War of the Gargantuas in this https://youtu.be/qdETA7bEEwA #monsterdon

bombs and volcanoes and water and mayhem surely there is no way either could have survived

nope not at all

THE END

#Monsterdon

so the archive.org version is the US dub (and is a few minutes longer) whereas the version on criterion, tubi, etc is the international dub. the US dub has Russ Tamblyn doing his own lines while the international version has another actor's voice! was interesting to hear/watch them side-by-side #monsterdon #WarOfTheGargantuas

@Taweret So they ended in a tie, I guess #monsterdon

that's... a lot of ragù #monsterdon

A volcano?! What kind of deus ex machina is that? #monsterdon

@Taweret gotta set up a sequel #monsterdon

@moira Calgon take me away #monsterdon

@bunnyhero gotta say tho, it's all in the way they're used. they had a bunch of rural and natural settings in this movie too and they were shot beautifully #monsterdon

They're BATH bombs GET IT? #monsterdon

@Taweret thanks for hosting! #monsterdon

He doesn't seem very distraught about in what bad shape she's in #monsterdon

ty for joining, everyone!!

#monsterdon

Well, that was ambiguous

thanks for the laughs, everyone! #Monsterdon

If you boys can't play with your ship responsibly I swear I'm not going to get you any more #monsterdon

"are we sure they're dead?"

"nope"

the end

#monsterdon

@req i love city scenes in kaiju movies, although obviously i understand that wilderness sets must be way cheaper #monsterdon

@moira jinx #monsterdon

now kiss #monsterdon

Mr Brown: calm down bro

Mr Green: well maybe....NOT EFF YOU

Mr Brown: oh IT'S ON!

Very Fast Wrestling ensues

#Monsterdon

@cheribaker All this laser action will just attract the attention of a gargantua-scale cat #monsterdon

you have no idea how happy I am to see them in an urban setting after all those islands #monsterdon

Ooooooh I see they're trying to draw the attention of monster _cats_ #monsterdon

Classic Thesis/Antithesis/Synthesis/Beatdown structure. So educational! #monsterdon

um. i thought we weren't going to try to blow up the monsters because it would create a bunch more monsters

um

guys?

#monsterdon

Oh thank goodness someone thought to bring back the ineffectual laser weapon #monsterdon

It would be awesome if they resorted to Three Stooges style violence #monsterdon

This is some Socratic-level dialogue right here. These monsters are making an _argument_. #monsterdon

Brother against brother…like Cain and Abel…a tale as old as time #Monsterdon

all this must have been fun to film

#monsterdon

Careful, don't step on those Legos #monsterdon

and the model ship looks great too

#monsterdon

This whole showdown is hysterical! Brothers gonna box #Monsterdon

@Taweret ture to the era it's like it's a Benny Hill chase scene through a furry convention #Monsterdon

I want to see more miniature tank flinging #monsterdon

"I can't. It's my role in this film to be wrong every time. It's my job!" #monsterdon

they have been several fantastic looking miniature sets in this

#monsterdon

Now that the game is over we own top hashtag, folks #monsterdon

they created so many model buildings for them to smash too

#monsterdon

the gargantuas move too fast tho. they should've slowed down the footage

#Monsterdon

Bro, stop chewing up the scenery #monsterdon

nonchalantly walking up to the SERIOUSLY INJURED WOMAN - sure, move her head and neck around a little more, why not #monsterdon

seriously, those miniature buildings look great. someone deserved a raise

#monsterdon

Whenever a person suffers a traumatic fall it is best to pick them up immediately #monsterdon

@cheribaker @RamenCatholic @Taweret oh no. The models aren't the art. The art is the smashing! :D #monsterdon

the gargantuans have unionized #monsterdon

@cheribaker At least he didn't break into a dance number #monsterdon

is that low brass theme they keep doing in other movies? i've heard that sampled before... #monsterdon

general not in front of the media! #monsterdon

@msh @bunnyhero He craves the spotlight #monsterdon

@Taweret loving the miniatures, but it hurts watching them get destroyed #Monsterdon

@bunnyhero the best restaurants are there probably #Monsterdon

Oh, these are some *beautiful* miniatures…getting squished. #Monsterdon

So now they're all in on the lights idea again. I thought the new plan was napalm? #monsterdon

Pretty passive-aggressive conversational style, buddy #monsterdon

why do they keep heading for tokyo #monsterdon

some nice sets and locations in this

#Monsterdon

mf looks like he was just startled by a mouse
#monsterdon

I want to see a teeny tiny Gargantua #monsterdon

all joking aside that beachfront was a gorgeous set #monsterdon

this could easily end up like Mickey Mouse in Fantasia with the magical broom but much more dire consequences #Monsterdon

He covers a stretch of beach in seconds that would have taken Godzilla like fifteen minutes #monsterdon

that convertible is dope tho

#monsterdon

STREAKING #monsterdon

"I agree with kaiju-universe Columbo, sir." #monsterdon

So did they give up on the bright lights idea? #monsterdon

get fuckin Abeled
#monsterdon

Look at him go, breaking tackles... #monsterdon

@Taweret they change speed a lot too #Monsterdon

"we are now fully deployed" MMM hey! #monsterdon

@Taweret They were more like laser *pointers* #monsterdon

Caught her in his soft, pillowy hand. #monsterdon

@Taweret Did the one owe the other one money or something? #monsterdon

if you people had been using masers instead of lasers, we wouldn't be in this mess

#monsterdon

Brown Gargantua would later go on to stardom as Lurch in _The Addams Family_ #monsterdon

Overly dramatic rowboat music #monsterdon

So definitely not twigs or matchsticks #Monsterdon

I think falling that far into Brownie's palm ought to have been a bit more traumatic on her body #monsterdon

finally, the war of the gargantuas i was promised #Monsterdon

okay now the gargantuas are at war

as was prophesied

#monsterdon

@bunnyhero @nev I bet she lifts #monsterdon

Okay, here's our plan. Step 1: napalm #Monsterdon

@nev she has the grip strength of a typical video game character! #monsterdon

@Taweret It's because little bits keep falling off #monsterdon

I just wanna say that this chick has great upper body strength because I would have fallen to my death 5 minutes in #Monsterdon

i sure hope there aren't any themes in this kaiju movie
#monsterdon

They're singing a traditional kaiju song #monsterdon

"guns and bombs shoudle be a last resort"

Wise Message

"hey I know we could use napalm instead!"

~sigh~

#Monsterdon

these kaiju change size a lot

#monsterdon

[whistles MASH theme] #monsterdon

Maybe the one is violent because you keep shooting and shocking him #monsterdon

oooooh _soylent_ green gargantua #monsterdon

Quick, what are these ducks? #birdeing #Monsterdon

you just cut up a kaiju to create new seed kaiju

#monsterdon
