so far this movie is delivering on the patterned clothing

#monsterdon

The eighth dwarf, Henry, became a professor of paleontology. #monsterdon

@skatem oh @Cherizilla one for the bingo pool

#Monsterdon

lol, "fuck off Science you won't be needed in this movie!"

#monsterdon

Im enjoying the abundance of excellent 1970s plaid in this so far.
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon at least they are equal opportunity national bigots. It’s kind of sweet actually. A bygone time…

Oops, his first movie was Three Lord's Prayers for Four Scoundrels. Must Men Be Beautiful came later. And I think we all know the answer.

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon chekov's flamethrower

#Monsterdon 🦍 🌨️ 🗓️ 😱

their lips are def moving in Italian

Italian-Canadian
This is an odd one...
#monsterdon

it's a spaghYeti western youall #monsterdon #yeti1977

I wonder what other centuries have their own giants.

#Monsterdon #Yeti

Yeti starts with a scene of a glacier melting into the sea, followed by some Hecking Awesome Orchestral Music, and a cool pan over the ocean, in which we see a boat.

Fuck yes, that's a good start to a #monsterdon movie; I love me some boats!

We then switch to a pan over a technologically advanced city, partly as seen from a space needle type restaurant and a helicopter, and then the helicopter approaches a guy who is minding his own business and fishing.

#monsterdon

"North" Canada? Uhh... isn't Canada just ALL North?!? #monsterdon

average millionaire

#Monsterdon

We have a helicopter arriving for a fisherman. Is the yeti going to be "one last job?"

#monsterdon #Yeti1977

Mimmo Crao's first movie was Must Men Be Beautiful?

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Uh, is this a porno movie?

(legally distinct Carmina Burana) I do like that the low brass earned their paycheck in the first 5 seconds though

Holy heck - we just saw Ontario Place go by in that opening sequence

#monsterdon

"My preferred mode of transport is being dangled from a helicopter like Aid"

#monsterdon

I know this music and it's not from this film....#Monsterdon

Launching my #monsterdon thread for Yeti: the Giant of the 20th Century, a movie which I expect includes a big hairy guy.

Monsterdon is the thing where we watch a monster movie every week and make fun of it. Feel free to join us if that sounds fun, or mute the hash tag if a wall of monster movie posts sounds annoying to you.

we have karmina burana theme

#Monsterdon #Yeti1977

I went on a cruise to Alaska and never got to see any glacers calving. Still bitter #monsterdon

Oh Fortuna remix in the opening credits?

#monsterdon #Yeti1977

It's a pretty sustained iceberg calving scene to start us off, and some very dramatic music and blood-red titles.

#monsterdon

Ready, steady, yeti!!

#monsterdon

"Toronto, City of the Future!"

Let's go!

#monsterdon

starting off with a nice icebreaker #monsterdon

And that's how the Titanic sank, kids... #monsterdon

We open with global warming and sea level rise?

#monsterdon #Yeti1977

Iceberg dead ahead!

#monsterdon #yeti

@Lazarou #monsterdon
Maybe don’t hold your breath.

We have avalanche-sign!

#Monsterdon #Yeti1977

Yeti, set, go!
#monsterdon

gotta come back to this thread and add a still of that Univac system

#Monsterdon

@allanb @Copperplate @davesdogmaggie @riedlr Depends on how gratuitous it was. Seems pretty gratuitous to me, so... maybe?

#Monsterdon

@Copperplate @allanb @riedlr @ramsey you say this like it’s an unrealistic goal. #monsterdon

@old_angry_queer Two words: Yeti nipple.

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon nipplegasm.

@davesdogmaggie @jonny @riedlr Jane clearly thought it seemed wrong.

#Monsterdon

@emma fully articulated! 🤣

#Monsterdon

@bstacey I can only imagine he suddenly realized that he was in this terrible film. #monsterdon #yeti1977

@moira
And the feet smashing windows!

#Monsterdon

@moira @davesdogmaggie We better get Critters 2 next. March is for monsters with incredible hair. Also make a delicious Yeti sandwich with crispy Crite buns.
#Monsterdon

@Zerofactorial one does have to show his respect for you including #monsterdon and presumably social media as a whole in the things to abstain from during your vacation.

@SordidAmok Do you have a link? If that is Tentacoli (German name „Der Polyp“), we did that already to great success: https://monsterdon-replay.gerlach.dev/tentacles

Although I don’t find Mimmo in the credits. #monsterdon

OMG! What if it WASN'T Yeti's NIPPLE?!?!? #monsterdon

For anyone who cares: I won't be participating in #monsterdon next Sunday because of vacation. I trust you all to put in a good showing for whatever will be playing

@apLundell I was thinking maybe 18 for the smart daughter, since I thought she had sort of a technical job at the start of the film, and maybe a young teenager for the little brother? But maybe I'm guessing that they're too old?

#monsterdon

dog is hurt, I will rub my spit on him #monsterdon

If you thought Yeti was bizarre - check out the Japanese 1977 "House"!

Maybe a future nomination?!?!
#monsterdon

#Monsterdon #yeti was far worse than I remembered. This worries me. It implies I may voluntarily watch it for a third time in another 30 years 😬

@Smallwork I feel like I should go to the ER. I'm hallucinating weird things like people dumping tomato saunce into containers and someone playing with a yeti's nipple... #monsterdon

@faoluin OMG this is AMAZING

#Monsterdon

@strangefour They probably had a giant inflatable prosthetic nipple just lying around and figured they better make good use of it

#Monsterdon

@brooke WE WERE RIGHT ALL THESE YEARS!

#monsterdon #Yeti1977 #TeamYeti

And the mute boy never spoke? #Monsterdon

My personal favorite #monsterdon bit is whenever something is destroyed in a very obligatory fashion to post "He hates X" In the style of Steve Martin in The Jerk #monsterdon

Well that one wasn't great, but it wasn't truly abominable. Thank you to @Taweret for enabling us to witness this #monsterdon

@SnoopJ Luck o' th' random number generator! ^_^

#monsterdon #Yeti1977

I definitely must see the followup sitcom where the yeti goes to college

Indio goes along to keep an eye on him

#Monsterdon

#Monsterdon the dog looks like it got into a jar of raspberry jam

@riedlr Did you not just watch the same movie?

#Monsterdon

So the #Monsterdon Yeti most definitely Pet Sematary'ed Indio, right? I mean that's a lot of raspberry jam.

@ramsey WTF? Did that actually happen??!? #monsterdon

That was a lot of fun, #Monsterdon.

As always, thanks to @Taweret for hosting, @Cherizilla for #MonsterdonBingo, and everyone else for the laughs!

Cheers!

@SordidAmok I think they are his grandkids, so it's probably his Legacy he's really concerned about. #Monsterdon

@70sgayspaceangel him and the Professor were lovers back in Uni, hence the tears #monsterdon

Sadly no bingo for me this week

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonBingo

#Monsterdon quick, I need an Italian without an O or I as the last letter of their last name! Or an E!

Now, post-feature musings: what were all those weird blocky bits you'd see under the yeti's fur around his middle in some shots (under the fur). And the sharp edges on the shins in some shots - like he had really boxy shin guards on under the suit. But they'd come and go ...

#Monsterdon #Yeti1977

@diazona @riedlr I will always boost Devil Girl everytime

#Monsterdon

@OliviaVespera likewise, this was a rough one

#Monsterdon

Hey, WTH…no abrupt ending? I’m disappointed…ok no, not really.
#Monsterdon

My mom: "We didn't get any more nipple!"
Me: True, we should've gotten the other one to balance things out.

#monsterdon #yeti

#monsterdon I think that's all i got for #monsterdonbingo

Big reverberating Godzilla strides!#Monsterdon

#monsterdon Did I miss something?

I am amazed that they didn't have the mute kid talk at a pivotal point in the film. (And then be cured from that point forward, of course.)

I was sure that was exactly the level of writing we were dealing with.

So Yeti saved a dog with Magival Yeti Drool and got tired of the Toronto cops and evil businessmen and effed off to....Muskoka I guess I dunno

THE END

So I guess this is what Wolfman Jack did when Hilarious House of Frightenstein was on hiatus? There seemed to be am effort at a plot but I never got the point of this #Monsterdon but it was highly entertaining to watch. Just when I was about to think of something else it would remind me O CANADA THIS IS TORONTO DON'T FORGET TORONTO which I also appreciated. Maybe that was the point? Stuff happens in Toronto?

Thanks for another great one @Taweret !

They could have bottled the Yeti Spit to discover the cure for cancer or something. But no. #monsterdon

Uh.... is anyone getting this weird video on mikayu.media?!? #monsterdon

He’s had healing saliva all this time? #Monsterdon

honestly surprised the yeti survived the movie. i've gotten very used to every monster movie needing to kill off the monster by the end

#monsterdon

I will now go listen to all of Carmina Burana #Monsterdon

Literally the last ten minutes of that film.

https://youtu.be/EQTu-oIZHEg?feature=shared

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon tree projectile! excellent
rock projectile! excellent

i fell like yet would've fit in well on endor

Goodnight, fellow Monstersonians. That really was a movie we watched. #monsterdon

and the moral is there’s no greater love than a boy for his dog. also if you find a yeti in the ice leave it there #Monsterdon

@allanb @Taweret "high" you say 🍃

#Monsterdon

THE YETI THEME BY THE YETIANS

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97FAle0F1jE

#monsterdon

@strangefour LASSIE JESUS!!!

#Monsterdon

Ye-TI! Ye-TI! Ye-TI! Ye-TI!

#monsterdon #Yeti1977

That just what we're ending with? #monsterdon

@Zerofactorial @ottaross Dude stabbed himself lol #monsterdon

And the Yeti fucks off into the sea level rising.

#Monsterdon

Yeeti crying a single manly tear, the end!

Worth the wait! Thanks all, esp. @Taweret and @ryan

#monsterdon

I zoned out a little at the end because I'm a little sick, but otherwise, what fun! Perfect example of a goodbad movie. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon The car is a matchbox. I love these little touches.

@ottaross It looked like someone else's blood actually, so no worries #monsterdon
