@apLundell And yet none of the pieces of that plot are connected to each other. #monsterdon #yeti1977
this was a movie about a dog, right? #monsterdon
#monsterdon What kind of uniform is that pilot wearing? Is he fresh from the Napoleonic wars?
Nobody ever listens to her EXCEPT the yeti. #monsterdon
yeeti fucks off into the wilderness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! which is the normal yeti habitat!!!!!!!!!! #monsterdon
all seven members of the 1977 toronto police department wave goodbye
So goodbye to Yeti, but the dogβs fine.
And The Yetians sing us out. Yay!
Thanks @Taweret and everyone. #monsterdon
Indio the collie deserves to be in a much better film #monsterdon
Anyway, whatever his evil plan is, Yellow Jacket Man has the Little Brother as a hostage and tries to shoot the Yeti with a large rifle but fails to hit, and the Yeti rescues the little brother and screams more, then knocks a truck over and squishes Yellow Jacket Man with his foot.
The cops show up but so far have not shot at the Yeti.
"what's a scale?" #monsterdon
I can't figure out how the cops can't find this 20-50 foot tall yeti walking around town.
Yeti blots out the sun. Epic #monsterdon
βCliffβ? Something tells me nomen est omen.
Director loves seeing guys roll around #monsterdon
Cliff Chandler rolling across the ground like a worm
To be fair, it's really hard to hit a randomly self-resizing target.
everytime the yeti is shown with his legs open, I think he is flashing his enemies to make they feel ridiculous
#monsterdon
The dog's palpable confusion at being petted by the hand hydraulic is the best thing in this movie so far #monsterdon
That's a good mockup of the actual warehouse, seen below.
OH YEAH!!!
#Monsterdon #Yeti
magic yeti spit?
yeti can pet dogs back to life!?!?!?! this is the best movie of all time! #monsterdon
"Tell all our men to meet us at the top of the mountain"
But why though? What is all this about?
@roque Didn't even make sense
"Come with me if you want to live" - Yeti
Uhhhh, why is there a bed and a SPOTLIGHT on it in the random Massey Ferguson warehouse!??!?!?!
i don't think this movie is even about the yeti anymore
I have seen some movies that make no sense over the years, but this thing may be in a class by itself. I mean, using the yeti to sell gasoline and snack foods has thus far been the *most* coherent part of this plot.
The Lead actress loses out to the dog on acting ability and hair
Back at the warehouse, the cops have decided that the Yeti is guilty; the Smart Daughter tries to explain that he was asleep and so he is innocent.
Back at the cop factory, which inexplicably has a Giant Univac Computer in the background, the top cop decides that the Yeti is guilty and sends cops to attack the Yeti. He tells the eccentric rich guy this via a phone call, and the Eccentric Rich Guy is sad, crying at the end of his gigantic table.
"if the police start questioning us, I'll answer"
this man has clearly never interacted with the police
I want business guy to be so sad about his scientist buddy's death that his bow tie pops off
Coffee is not served, but in use
#Monsterdon The only way to tame the wild Yeti is with a huge curly mass of steel wool. Roughly fifteen minutes of passion and heβll be asleep in moments. Like a man.
(this movie not affiliated with Massey Ferguson)
I hope the YETI kills Cliff Chandler.
["Fortuna" resumes]
"...better call the police!"
"But, aren't we the police?"
"Oh shit..."
Toe strangled by a yeti.
That was not on my "horror movie death scene" bingo card. #monsterdon
I'm tired of these Massey Ferguson Yetis on this Massey Ferguson plane.
#Monsterdon #Yeti
Ooouuuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa #monsterdon #yeti1977
This is the worst stomping in the history of stompings.
Yeti finally has a toehold on the situation #Monsterdon
I love how much NETWORK energy this Business Shitheads plot has
That MF logo is *definitely* a wink to the 70s audience #monsterdon
After getting more oxygen, the Yeti makes up and is mad; he seems to realize that the sleazy goons were the source of the trouble and starts smashing them in a Targeted Rampage. They run outside and start hiding behind construction equipment, which is the strategy I used in the construction equipment levels in X-COM.
@moira in Canada so, Yeti vs. Wolverine #monsterdon
Ug, it's taking so long for this sleazy man to die....
The speeding cop-car sequences seem totally gratuitous. Probably necessary to get the filming rights in Toronto in 1977.
Time check, 1h17m, woman screaming while grabbing her head in terror and then fleeing. Perfect GIF capture moment.
#monsterdon It's Yeti time!!!!!
Yeti gently crush henchman like grape.
Jane's dress is a little too sheer
I wonder how much a custom manufactured single-use yeti oxygen cannula costs.
Who is Jane and her sister/brother exactly?
I don't know why they are in this film at all in terms of backstory
@riedlr such a clever boy, he knew #monsterdon
#monsterdon This movie has too much plot.
#Monsterdon Little kid knows whatβs what. Rub the Yeti boy. Youβll figure it out. Then youβll get a yogurt spritz. A buckets worth. Little ice cubes in it. Cause, yeti.
Lassie's back! Quick give the Yeti CPR Lassie!
#Monsterdon #Yeti
The Dog is like... how did my agent get me into this friggin film?!? #monsterdon
Orchestra found their missing music! #monsterdon
The way they say "yeti" is entirely unnecessary
That was quite a brutal beating for a character we are definitely supposed to like after the build-up of little things
And now everyone is piling into the Mystery Machine?!?!?!?!?!
@allanb it's a clothing line, and a music label! #monsterdon
The green van with plaid seats is the best thing I've seen in this movie so far
Cinematography by Quentin Tarantino.
#Monsterdon #Yeti
Let's turn all these dials and press all these buttons, okay?
"If the yeti doesn't get oxygen he'll die!"
So who wants to give him mouth to mouth? #Monsterdon
How are there still 30 minutes left in this movie?! #monsterdon #yeti
Porno Music in 3...2...1... #monsterdon
"I'll just sit here with a newspaper and watch the YETI die."
Loving that 70s Business Suit, Hunting Rifle look all the men in Toronto have...
#monsterdon "He's so big" I'm sorry folks I can't
@SordidAmok nothing will convince me thatβs not Channing Tatum #Monsterdon
Green Scooby Mobile! #monsterdon
You still trust daddy warbucks at this point? That seems foolish. #monsterdon
#Monsterdon They put lights on taxis and giant block letters. Thatβs ACAB amusante
#monsterdon It's thematic because the Yeti was also in a booth.
there's still a bunch of movie left somehow #monsterdon
let's manifest yeti unfreezing a giant pterodactyl and fucking off into the sunset #monsterdon
Here comes the Canadian bacon
Violent rampage time!
@nev Last time I was there you could still find strands of yeti hair floating in the breeze
All the Canuck women are like... #monsterdon
Seriously, the yeti actor is nailing this. #monsterdon #yeti
#Monsterdon Itβs refreshing to see absolutely zero chivalry in the escape from the elevator scene. Screw you bitch, Iβm just going to climb over you!
Ha ha. He was eating dinner and a yeti kicked him
Yeti leaning into frame, "hey girl~ How you doin~?"
#Monsterdon #Yeti
Immediately search "Did Toronto really have cop cars that looked like cabs with sirens?" Turns out it did! #monsterdon
Okay, so the Yeti starts rampaging and breaking building because he didn't like the camera flashes; the puny humans start hiding from him, but he smashes more walls; this makes the Smart Daughter horny. A puritanical god punishes her for her sins by stranding her on the side of the building, but she is rescued by the Yeti, making her even hornier.
1970s Toronto cop cars you look ridiculous.
#Monsterdon #Yeti
I LOVED that game!!! #monsterdon
What a nightmare being squished in an elevator with beautiful young models in silk dresses falling all over everything. I know I'd be doing the first-out-the-door George Costanza thing too
Yeti is terribly confused, because going by all the movies he's seen, this is what New York looks like
