Tucker and Dale have the most wholesome friendship.

Monstrous Trivia
That nail gun is actually hooked up to a compressor, so he has to hold a safety button in front to enable it to shoot. Realistic!
Another #Mastoween Success!!
Thank you so much @Taweret for this gem - and all you do every week for the buildup to the event!
This remains one of my favorite things each week.
And commentators, as always, you are as insightful as you are insane!
I got another email from the NoFilmSchool people, but I told them again they would have to join Mastodon to get access to this content.
Have a great week everyone!!
the only thing i dislike about this film set in "#WestVirginia" is that it was FILMED IN CANADA LMAO
"He'll be OK ... or not"
"it's time for you to feel my pain..."
"BRING IT, FRAT BITCH"
two-face looking very different here
Oh with the tongue, why is it always with the TONGUE with these guys :/ #Monsterdon #Mastoween
oh, I think I understand
Chad suffers from Main Character Syndrome.
Chad will _never_ be a Main.
@neia i view tucker and dale as being a fixed couple in a polycule, they come together #monsterdon #mastoween
#mastoween #monsterdon My theory is Chad's Mom murdered her boyfriend and all her friends and THAT'S why she was institutionalized and his grandma lied to him to keep him happy.
"i can't even hurt a fish!"
#mastoween #monsterdon I'm glad I'm not hung like a bear.
#mastoween #monsterdon Dale is such a mood; he never wanted to hurt no body. :blobfoxcry2:
Absolutely fantastic thread on the firing line dot com on nail guns being used as weapons

"it is a beautiful day for a run, isn't it?" :ms_grimace:
I find exactly one Dale/Allison fic in #AO3 #monsterdon #mastoween
https://archiveofourown.org/tags/Allison*s*Dale%20Dobson/works
they don't even need characterization for the Hot Teens individually because they are a collective character, like a greek chorus, a single will #monsterdon #mastoween
I dunno, I think killing these frat bros might be a public service. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
one thing i do miss about being crusty boy coded is the Peak Accessory that is anonymous and inexplicable baseball cap #monsterdon #mastoween
Okay do we start now?
I've had this paused for an hour because I'm bad with time zones.
#mastoween #Monsterdon
It is *funny*, I'll give it that ^^ #Monsterdon #Mastoween
I'm honestly not sure how to feel about Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. Because on the one hand it has solid themes of alienation of the self via dehumanization of the other, but on the other hand half the cast are exaggerated stereotypes.
Like, the movie is clearly talking about how dehumanizing other people through stereotypes causes you to misjudge how people actually are. But then 8 out of 10 of the college kids are flat cliches.
just realized tucker could have poured the moonshine on his hand instead of the beer....
@forestine Now there's a movie Dale could've solved. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
I was wrong about this, Chad's real father WAS the real hillbilly murderer. #monsterdon #mastoween #TuckerAndDaleVsEvil
"I'm feelin'...high on prescription medication"
I can't find it. i miss movie trackers where uploading a full disk image of a dvd or bluray was one of the categories... "dvd special features" are basically a missing archival category #monsterdon #mastoween
"like I said I remember weird stuff"
And that's a wrap! Thank you @Taweret for hosting!
I feel like there's a dissertation to be written about #TuckerAndDaleVsEvil's commentary on American class politics. It's very well-observed.
I just wanted to point out that the last season with the punching of the woman by the hillbilly was tohang a lampshade on your new expecation that hillbillies are all great people and that him meeting her on Dale's advice is all going to turn out great. #monsterdon #mastoween
Yet another movie set in my home state of West Virginia that was not filmed in West Virginia.
#mastoween #monsterdon
oh _nice_ shin counter.
Gah! Tubi blocks the credits with "next showing"
ok seriously if anyone can find this special feature from the POV of the hot teens can we reconvene at 7:30 and watch that #monsterdon #mastoween
https://neuromatch.social/@jonny/111242035431779719
roll credits! SUPER fun movie, definitely had me laughing a lot
YOU SHOULD GO HELP HER
idk how i feel about 'always approach women' being the moral of the story but hey they are cute. edit: dale and ally are cute. #monsterdon #mastoween
I think he could stand to be a little less himself, chief ^^;; #Monsterdon #Mastoween
"that girl has an amazing set of bowlin' fingers."
As long as we can get him his inhaler-- guy falls out the window.
#mastoween #monsterdon
"...Or not."
Yeah, it happens. No problem. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
"I'm a terrible therapist"
Is Dale's tattoo the bunny from Donnie Darko? #monsterdon #mastoween
Half-hillbilly, he gets Darkvision and proficiency with bows. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
I _would_ totally love a cup of tea right now.
So this is gonna climax with Popped Collar killing himself by accident, right? To complete the theme? #Monsterdon #Mastoween
KILLER HILLBILLY MODE: ENGAGED
chet is channeling horny heath ledger joker #monsterdon #mastoween
...okay you all weren't kidding about the conflict resolution
"you take care of that college shithead for me."
"i'm gonna shove my boot down his fuckin' throat."
amazing dialogue
...Did the college kid summon the Close Encounters of the Third Kind ship? #Monsterdon #Mastoween
@Fanfalla its gotta be that way right. like the role remaining member of the hot teens will always believe tucker and dale are evil #monsterdon #mastoween
oh, double hat style!
@sean
Might be best lines in movie. Will take all of us to decide.
Cool flashback, bro.
shippppppinnnnnnggg themmmmmmmmm #monsterdon #mastoween
Oh good, a monster is born! #Monsterdon #Mastoween
no honey you were genuinely being an amazing therapist this kid is just insane
of course the city girl picks up the moonshine and thinks it's water.
Topical application of beer to amputated fingers.
Woman, argue with him more. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
when the quiet kid opens up in therapy
"how long ago should i start?"
"whenever you'd like."
"so, before i was born..."
"okay, maybe not that far back."
please yes active listening conflict res facilitator yes yes yes #AllWeNeedIsCommunication #monsterdon #mastoween
Oh it's an ANCESTRAL hillbilly vendetta! #Monsterdon #Mastoween
this is actually REALLY HEALTHY CONFLICT RESOLUTION
I got ten to twelve beers in there
"oh yeah, i'll provide the finger sandwiches.
....i'm gonna go get a beer."
Chad has some SERIOUS ISSUES.
#mastoween #Monsterdon
so walking into a room full of gas you would definitely know it right i am nervous for their vacation home #monsterdon #mastoween
DON'T LIKE HOW HE TOUCHED HER FACE AT ALL
white people walking into a place they don't know:
"this is where evil lives."
"I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad I'm not hung like a bear."
@bkm Miskatonic? #monsterdon #mastoween
"try not to shoot me"
"I shoulda known that when a guy like me talks to a girl like you, somebody dies."
This was basically me from age 13 - 30.
Chief, you walked up to them carrying a giant sharp scythe, the misunderstanding is pretty reasonable. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
"dale, nobody wants to hurt you."
"DIE HILLBILLY"
I think your friends forgot to take their meds. #PlaceboReference? #monsterdon #mastoween
RETURN OF THE BEAM!
I gotta say, Allison's putting in some work managing male emotions this week. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
fuzzy kitten heels #StripperShoes #monsterdon #mastoween
I'd just like to say a personal thank you to my adblocker. I love you <3 #Monsterdon #Mastoween
Over/under on Stripper Shoes dying next? #Monsterdon #Mastoween
Tucker "I'm a hedge!" #TheTick #mastoweek #monsterdon
"What do you mean you don't like fishin'?"
ok actually how much inertia does a nail coming out of a nail gun have and could you actually hurt someone at that distance #monsterdon #mastoween
This is a couple gummy facial expressions away from being an Ernest film. #Monsterdon #Mastoween
I love how makeup and continuity were all "We gotta make sure his bee sting welts go down over time." AND THEN DID IT. #monsterdon #mastoween
NOOOOO NOT JANGERS
#mastoween #monsterdon WHERE'S JANGERS?!?!
