This is how Indy met whatever-her-name-is the first time. Claire? I have a bad memory.

#monsterdon

The kayfabe is strong with this one.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon First the needle then the mat. This movie is torture

@Taweret Despite his clothing, he said his name was Fujiata #Monsterdon

We are about 50% through the film, but so far we have only seen 50% of the title. It has definitely delivered on the Wrestling Women thing. But wasn't there a Mummy meant to be in here somewhere? #monsterdon

They spared no expense on the fighting choreography I am pleased #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤼‍♀️ 🪶 🐲 🤕 😱

Ruby has some great moves tho

Do the Black Dragon's minions know they're supposed to do dramatic fake-fighting and not real judo? Ah yes, luckily they seem to be aware

#Monsterdon

They fight with pointy bra?fancy...
#monsterdon

that mat is gross

#monsterdon

Judging from the post office scene it's "Chela" played by María Eugenia San Martín #monsterdon

I assume that move is called the rolly polly. #Monsterdon

The bras are so pointy I feel like that should count as a weapon

BOOBINYEREYE

#Monsterdon

I would have expected the mummy tobhave shown up by now.

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

I'm starting to think that maybe this wasn't about the codex at all.

#Monsterdon

Two weeks? You’re already at the wrestling place! #monsterdon

The bad guy is SO SHINY.

#monsterdon
#WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT

AND THE PEOPLE WANT A MUMMY

(but in lieu of mummy we will accept more women kicking goons' asses)

#Monsterdon

I'll use the same weapon that he employees, a plan! I too am capable of probably stringing two thoughts together

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

#Monsterdon 🤼‍♀️ 🪶 🐲 🤕 😱

I'm disappointed we didn't get a training montage from that two week break in the timeline

Thanks to the commercials on Tubi, I am way behind #monsterdon

@otheorange_tag That movie is never wrong 😀 (in fact I'm a little tempted to watch it later)

#Monsterdon

No fear, he has a cunning plan....

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon "Tear her heart out!!!"

So many Doctor Who references tonight. I'm proud of y'all.

#monsterdon

bonk bonk onna head! #Monsterdon

What the mummy doin`?
#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomen #AztecMummy

Chasing your opponent while doing airplane arms, classic judo move #monsterdon

#Monsterdon awww judo girl 1 was smiling while she got her arms waved around...

Well, I guess if he swears to a god I hadn't heard of 5 minutes ago...
#monsterdon

Me at work this year: "They are going to use every possible trick on you."

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Anyone curious why the ring's floor is so...stained?

see, they're having fun! --dad #Monsterdon

@floatybirb

Now that's what I'm talking about! 👍

#Monsterdon

You have to wonder, how long did they just suspend the search for the codex to plan for this fight

#Monsterdon

I think we're about to watch the birth of MMA ring fights

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

#Monsterdon 🤼‍♀️ 🪶 🐲 🤕 😱

I don't know that a double nelson is gonna stand up to a judo multiple weird karate chop to the noggin but good luck, women!

(there's no way they'll have real Judo in this movie, I'm def. expecting Karate)

@Taweret capes really seem like a risky fashion choice for MMA #monsterdon

Ooh. A DOUBLE Nelson. I don't know what the heck that is but I'm checking my Nelson square. ✅ 😂 #Monsterdon

I love how they called it the match of the weaker sex. These women have been kicking dude ass all this time. Fuck you and your patriarchy.

#monsterdon #aztecsomethingsomethingwrestling

gi are also Japanese, right?

#monsterdon

I'd wear that cape unironically to bed. 😏

#monsterdon

Mao = Mayo is SLAYING me.

#monsterdon
#WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

Sweep the leg!

#Monsterdon #TheWrestlingWomenVsTheAztecMummy

BOOOOOOOO #monsterdon

No capes!

#ednamode #monsterdon

#monsterdon anyone watching in Spanish? Were they pronouncing the one guy's name like "Mayo" in the original?

#Monsterdon my money is on Loretta!!!

"We'll say good night now. . . Good night."
#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomen #AztecMummy

OK so the tall long haired Luchadora is 5'10". Looked her up.

#monsterdon

He was threatening to light his lighter. Just shoot him! #monsterdon

Everyone's talking about the wrestling capes but the boots are pretty sick too

#Monsterdon

man if this thing had half as much mummy as it had racism we'd be SWIMMING in cloth wrappings by now!

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

Those capes tho

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon love these girls. if things get bad we'll just beat the shit out of them. amazing.

Is this a crossover between the Aztec Mummy series and the Wrestling Women series?
#monsterdon

ok perfect. we are at the halfway point, another 10 minute long wrestling scene and we have the second half of the movie to get into some mummy shit. perfectly paced #monsterdon

@trixter

Yeeeessss.

#monsterdon

Despite the fact the wrestling women have no real relevance to the plot (so far), there hasn’t been any romantic connection at all.

#Monsterdon

Why is the main conflict in a luchadore movie settled by a wrestling match? Why would yo-- oh wait right. LUCHA!!!
#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomen #AztecMummy

no capes! #wrongMovie #Monsterdon

At least in a Gi you can breathe. #Monsterdon

So the judo ladies are the Aztec Mummy?

#monsterdon
#WrestlingWomenVsTheAztecMummy

Her hair is so big... 🥰

#monsterdon

Augh, someone forgot to clean the wrestling ring. C'mon people.

#monsterdon

Uncle? And not Auntie?

#Monsterdon

capes! capes! capes! capes!

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

@Louisa Great point...that's the genius of this movie...
Nobody expects the Aztec Mummy!!

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤼‍♀️ 🪶 🐲 🤕 😱

It's a good thing that Black Dragon is an honorable villain who can be counted on to keep his word

"...there's no judo defense against a folding chair!"

#Monsterdon #TheWrestlingWomenVsTheAztecMummy

What an amazingly convoluted way to justify having a public match between the Judo Ladies and the Wrestling Women. In two weeks, because we wanted to end this now.

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

"we have our secret weapons, like pressure holds, and we can punch them too if we need to" this DIALOGUE #monsterdon

#monsterdon every time I come across racism toward Asian folks in movies now I think of Charles Yu's Interior Chinatown, really amazing book and very much worth the read.

Karate chop attack! Door opening attack! General roughhouse attack!

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

So, Mr evil and the wrestling women are going to settle this in a wrestling match? And everyone agreed to it?

#monsterdon
#WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

not one thing that was just said in that reading of the poster is ok to say #monsterdon

I like how they almost forgot about Charlotte. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤼‍♀️ 🪶 🐲 🤕 😱

TWO WEEKS?

I was in the middle of a project and really didn't plan on watching this. But the awesomeness is too much.

#monsterdon

It would be real handy to have some elaborate fake oaths on hand that you could pull out when you want to convince someone you're definitely not lying at all

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon so uh the racism in this sucks

plus you need a little flex time because you never know when there's gonna be another blues brothers orphanage fundraiser in that place

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

Mappage! #monsterdon

"Each one will use their own style" and thus the UFC was born, although the white guy playing some Asian stereotype is somehow less hateful than Dana White

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 🤼‍♀️ 🪶 🐲 🤕 😱

"I'm sure you'll agree that this little game is not helping us"

Um, OK.

Also, there are four pieces of the codex now?

Happy to look forward to this Wrestling Women vs. Judo Chicks cage match tho

#Monsterdon my weird judo sisters against your hot lady wrestlers let's do thisssss

@plaidtron3000 An excellent reason to drink regularly. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon ... We'll settle this with fight.

... Weren't we just doing that?

Okay, let's get our lawyers in and figure out a fight contract...
#monsterdon

two weeks

well that makes sense he's gotta have time for promotion and early sales tickets

#monsterdon #WrestlingWomanVsAztecMummy

bro just swore on his ancient Chinese stereotype #monsterdon

If I didn't know the title of this movie, I would already have forgotten the murdered archaeologists and would never in a million years predict a mummy will show up at some point

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon ........This villain is really accommodating.

That's a dope Samurai calendar in the Evil Lair there

#Monsterdon #WrestlingWomenVsAztecMummy

The tall lady's the only one throwing believable punches.

#monsterdon

After the way women in movies from this era are usually written, watching these women just punch the shit out of some guys is pretty amazing.

#monsterdon

This wrestling match will make herstory! (sorry, I'm trying to delete it)
#monsterdon

@ramsey we had an early pass in the after-wrestling chat, but despite the prominence of the Wrestling Women they are not really driving the plot #monsterdon
