Bob Dobbs was a suckup before he founded the church, wasn't he?
DARN GOOD JOB OF SEXISM, TOO [clapping with a pipe in mouth]
Our mad scientist spent decades researching royal naval jelly before turning his attention to wasps. #Monsterdon
indoor smoking!
Drawing wrinkles with an eye pencil on a pretty movie star to make her look like an OLD HAG, that counts as old age makeup
I hate that guy already. Wanting the wasps to murder him immediately. #Monsterdon
ββ¦, gentleman.β
βThat leaves us out.β Both women at the table, probably.
oo, some VERY excited Pointing At Things With A Stick here on #monsterdon
"Explainer Guy" The Movie. #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
Ahhhh, yes the mighty xylophone, demonstrating the rapid pace of science.
what is this writing
@WhiskeySailor But are reptiles a kind of snake? π€ #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
so are wasps bees or...?
"On you! Because you are after all a woman and wow you _are_ getting older! How hideous!"
"the responsibility for this decline?"
your glasses ma'am. yikes. #monsterdon
Smoking indoors!
some very bombastic establishing shot music
It is essential we understand wasps are not bees
#monsterdon
oh good there wasnβt nearly enough indoor smoking before #monsterdon
i praised the last corman movie we watched because it got into the action immediately, but this one is taking FOREVER and yet is only an hour long #monsterdon
Uh if that graph shows a 14.5% drop then someone is doing some very misleading plotting
Those eyebrows are on fleek. #monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
@diazona I hate Naturop... nuthin! #MonsterDon
*blinded by beige*
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
Oh he's a kindly old mad scientist.
He has Two Stupid Dogs.
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
1 caterpillar for the whole hive #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
Meanwhile, in The City⦠timpani drums! #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
Meanwhile, in a Perry Mason episode... #Monsterdon
"Why were you let go from your last job?"
"I intentionally raised wasps instead of bees" --the end of this guy's next job interview #monsterdon
this movie is barely an hour long and we've already spent ten full minutes talking about wasps and bees
What happens when you hire a team of colour blind guys to add colour to an old film?
Let's eff around and find out! #Monsterdon
"Now look here..." = Girl, you in danger
#Monsterdon lol is the dude who works for Big Pharma gonna be the good guy?
Aww! I really like the scientistβs cute little Bela Lugosi Poverty Row Mad Scientist Chemistry Set!

"I suck at my job"
"No you don't"
"Yes I do!"
"My keepers are slobs"
"No they aren't"
"Yes they DO!"
"What??"
The reverse aging violates the law of conservation of mass, it seems #monsterdon
@YsengrinWolf It's a _pill_ that gives _worms_ to ex-_girlfriends_! You just don't get it! Phew!
people also have weird pathces of gray that appear and disappear on their faces
I love a good βNow see hereβ¦β #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
"I'm sorry mister Zinthrop, but I've gotta set up my inevitable murder in the next act!" #Monsterdon
@CactuarJoe :ms_eyes: Ref just glares, back to you Jim! #Monsterdon
I've developed this fantastic product - one injection turns guinea pigs into rats!
too bad this movie will age us all into the grave before his queen wasp de-aging solution becomes reality. #monsterdon
The first 10 minutes of the film: "Wasps aren't bees, dumbass!"
It didn't get younger, it got smaller. And changed from a hamster into a rat!
Royal jelly? Are we gonna get a surprise slime girl on top of a vespula vulgaris woman?
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
I'd inject myself with wasp jelly if I could be an adorable puppy #monsterdon
Listen, it was my first job and I only had a day to color this film okay!
#monsterdon
Royal jelly from the queen wasp... and it slows aging... whaaa π€·
@RobynGoodfellow Maybee pollenators in general? #WrongQuote #WrongMovie #Monsterdon
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman Here, let me adorn your path with smoke.
I thought the royal jelly was supposed to be eaten, not injected #monsterdon
@Taweret Don't tell us, tell the high school kids contracted to do the colorizing.
He didn't even tell the little hamster that it was just going to "sting a little".
Actually, given the pace of this movie so far, he may finish before we do. #Monsterdon
@davesdogmaggie @Taweret I'm skeptical about the colors in a WASP movie #SideEye #NotGoingToLetThatJokeGo #MonsterDon
just follow the dude around puffing smoke into the air after him. wasn't there a Monty Python scene like this? #monsterdon
The old dude with the flesh-toned hair. #monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
Ah! Wasps do produce royal jelly, which Zinthrope is researching. Makes sense that he'd look into wasps as well as bees.
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
Was expecting wasps and got guinea pigs.
He's hand-painting a honeycomb. #Monsterdon
Looks like the manager has appeared. Maybe this IS the Wasp Woman I was thinking of #Monsterdon
sometimes the beekeeper hats are pink and sometimes orange and sometimes white. they keep changing
Wasps? In my American movie from the 1950s? It's more likely than you think. #monsterdon
@DinosaurRobo that's _amazing_.
and a car of a different colour! somebody tell the wizard of oz!
Hmm I'll also call bug spray! #Monsterdon
WASP MENTION
@trixter They'd have to have added in the bake sale bits at the church for the W.A.S.P. parts? #ChecksNotes #MonsterDon
@Taweret It is horrible, the colorization I mean. #Monsterdon
"They know when ya is."
"And they know when ya ain't"
The wisdom of beekeepers.
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
The colorization has rendered the people into corpses. Be afraid! #monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
A please would be nice!
Mention of royal jelly! #Monsterdon
"I try to take my inspiration from the bees" Whatever Captain Kissass. #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
I too try to take my inspiration from the bees. #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
even the beekeepers are beholden to the Man, shame #monsterdon
<<That's about a hundred toots in just a few minutes>>>
βI try to take my inspiration from the bees β¦ and thatβs why I live in a hexagon!β

#TheWaspWoman
Vincent Price would have done a better job of badly describing how the queen wasp is just like a black widow spider.
I didn't know this was about Burt's Bees
#monsterdon
so this guy is basically the bee whisperer
@apLundell i might too. the amazon version can't decide what colour anything is π #monsterdon
Are we sure this isn't a nature documentary? It's been five minutes of kindly old bee man and shots of trees.
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
they can sting a man to death!
that's more like fiveshadowing. foreshadowing wouldn't cut it
Why does every place on earth look like the hills behind Griffith Park?
in the colorized version the bees are green
Why is the beekeeper collecting wasps? Is he a researcher? They don't pollinate, so it's not an agriculture thing.
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
"found some new friends"
well, you're losing a few too, doesn't something actually HAPPEN in this movie, or like, no... #monsterdon
Nice mid-century decor in that office #monsterdon
Imma count this as expert explains insects! #Monsterdon
DO SOMETHING, JESUS CHRIST #Monsterdon
i wonder what wasp opinions are on all this. maybe we'll find out if we ever SEE ANY
Take a drink every time somebody smokes!
Cinematic tree arch π― #Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman
so the amazon version is colorized i guess. i don't know why they ever thought colorizing movies was a good idea. it looks terrible
#Monsterdon #TheWaspWoman Beekeepers watching this had to have been screaming in the theater βThatβs not how we do it! Who wrote this?β
the last black and white movie i remember watching was the lighthouse so i'm getting these same emotions that this movie has not earned
#FakeMovieFacts: The European release title for The Wasp Woman was "The Bees Knees ..."
