This may be the most American of scenes I have ever seen.

#Monsterdon #TeamZarkorr

"i've only been at it an hour and a half and already i'm about to be shot"

every time i think this scene is going on too long, they pull out a line like that.

#monsterdon #karkorr1996

They had this in one of the later Terminator movies, where a cop from the first movie helps them.

Genisys I think.

#Monsterdon
#Zarkorr1996

It's the OO-FOES!

#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader

BORED NOW [blam]

#monsterdon #Zarkorr1996

"Cut it out, you're gonna strain your throat."

Even 5-year old me wouldn't have laughed at that.

#monsterdon

That's right, George,

YoU DiD yOuR oWn ReSeArCh

#Monsterdon

Ah. PC Conspiracy Theory. #monsterdon

I think that question answers itself

#monsterdon #Zarkorr1996

The cop is an early-adopter MAGAt. #monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👽👾👦🧚‍♀️🥊🫣 😱

George is right, Larry. Tommy's telling the truth.

OKAY THEN George the Cop freaking out over cattle mutilations is NOT where I expected this confrontation to go, I'll give the movie credit for that, too.

#Monsterdon

And the other cop is really committed to the whole alien plot thing.

#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader1996

Did a 12 year old write this!?

#monsterdon #zarkorr

Why won't you cops believe the stuff only I can tell you #Monsterdon

George is losing it now. #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Good, he didn't mention it was a mall tramp this time. Zarrkour sounds like a paid, exclusive version of parkour.

Before you beg people to listen to you, perhaps you should consider whether your audience will ever believe you.

#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader

morning george

morning sam

points gun at george

#monsterdon

Crazy? Not crazy?

#Monsterdon #Zarkorr

There are so many people that I wish were half as honest as this guy is being right now.

#Monsterdon #XarkorrTheInvader1996

"So. What's the problem?"

Are you KIDDING me dude? Stupid B@stard :blobrollingeyes: #Monsterdon

🦖MONSTERDON 🎞️

⁉️ CATACLYSMIC TRIVIA 🌏🔥

Why a postal worker?
Perhaps it was that, around this time, there was a high frequency of media coverage of postal workplace shootings and other unusual behaviors. The phrase "going postal" became popular. Management reforms did occur, fortunately.

#Monsterdon

@amyfou you mean that strip that separates opposing lanes on a highway?

#Monsterdon

WOW, he's actually believable that he's insane. LOL

#Monsterdon

I like they didn't even bother to get Newark cop patches, just went with whatever prop they could.
#monsterdon   

George also needs an evaluation.
#Monsterdon

"If you're going to patronize me, at least do a better job" word for word my wedding vows #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
#ZarkorrTheInvader1996

Other facts I have learned from the aliens:

- life is a meaningless accident
- nothing awaits after
- all of reality is but a thought in the mind of a deranged dreamer

#Monsterdon #TeamZarkorr

“Before I saw it on TV, so I knew it had to be true” #Monsterdon

Did this man read a script that had him say the line
"I'm the only one who can defeat Zarkorr!" and took the job?

#monsterdon

@heathen_cat How about an infection on the skin of the perineum?

#monsterdon #karkorr1996

SHOW US WHAT YOU GOT

#monsterdon

He’s got a gun and he’s a postal worker. I have feelings about mocking the murders by the postal worker in the 80s. #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader1996

It would be comforting to learn that I'm the most average human. #Monsterdon

OMG you (cop) are two feet away from crazy postal worker and could totally shoot him in the head and spare us the rest of the movie

#Monsterdon #Zarkorr1996

SCuSe ME! ExCuSe ME!! eXKYooZe ME!!

Cop's got gas.

#Monsterdon

Can we go back to the monster rampage, please. #Monsterdon

If they keep throwing in '90s topical references there's going to be a white Bronco any minute now #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
#ZarkorrTheInvader1996

"I'm the median human." Wow, got it right!

#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader1996

He definitely doesn't sound crazy.

#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader 🦖

Tommy rants, and the cops are at least looking like "Yeah, guy, you're not crazy, suuuuuuuuuuure." So credit to the cop actors for that, at least?

#monsterdon

#Monsterdon 👽👾👦🧚‍♀️🥊🫣 😱

I'm treating Tommy as the 'villain' for bingo purposes

@amyfou dammit tommy learn the difference between mean and median

#Monsterdon

It feels like every direction and writing choice in this movie is the wrong one. The acting is not good, but I'm not sure I can lay any sizeable amount of blame on the actors they could find for what little they must have been paid.
#Monsterdon #Zarkorr

This cop could just cap him right there. He couldn't miss.
#monsterdon

Ha ha, postal workers used to be under so much stress they used to go on shooting sprees. Now it's teenagers. Ha ha ha. #Monsterdon

@davesdogmaggie

And her too

#Monsterdon #Zarkorr

@Taweret yeah, I think so, unfortunately :blobcheeky: #Monsterdon

"Because I want to use you as a human shield" I wonder why his hostage won't go along with him, huh.

#monsterdon

We're already in plot summary review and we're not even a third of the way thru this film.

#monsterdon

#monsterdon Please be my human shield! Sounds like it could be a decent country song.

He did say please, after all #Monsterdon

#monsterdon Put your left foot in, and shake it all about!!! PLEASE!!!!

"I'm armed!"
(cops not impressed)
"he's a postal worker!"
"ok, calm down buddy"

no easy stereotypes for this #monsterdon 😆

#monsterdon So, is this all comedy relief?

#monsterdon great representative acting of what on nerve is a police man

Hey, I wonder what the Legally Distinct Kaiju is up to
#monsterdon   

A better choice of line would have been "occupied".

#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader

I want to use you as a human shield. Please. 🤣 #monsterdon

"Go away" yeah that oughta do it #monsterdon

#monsterdon Both full of requests and commands, his D/s game is weaksauce.

For those of you too young to have been alive in the late 80s/early 90s, there was a rash of gun-involved incidents involving postal workers. This is the origin of the now-disused phrase "Going Postal" and is why everyone is having a big reaction when he said he's a Postal Worker. #Monsterdon

That one security guard looks like a blurry JPEG of Spud from Trainspotting

#Monsterdon

Something to remember, to make the weird USPS comments make sense (except not), is that "going postal" was a worth around this time.

#Monsterdon

@Taweret I'm very confused about what they wanted to do tbh

#monsterdon

This police officer is weirdly competent. #Monsterdon

If anyone played postal know this guys are really nuts!
#monsterdon
#zarkorr1996

Shoot 'em all and let Zarkorr sort 'em out. #Monsterdon

😁 "because I want to use you as a human shield!"

#monsterdon

@Taweret@timeloop.cafe right?
#Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader

"You had your chance!"

Yeah, the king of dry-cold-toast mediocrity is gonna be both beggar and chooser today.
So proclaims the holo-pixie.

#Monsterdon #Zarkorr1996

#monsterdon Wow, the cops made the security guard seem totally level-headed and reasonable.

"OK, so, what's the problem?"

Yeah, cops say that all the time while holding a gun in your face.

#monsterdon

Excuuuuuuuuuuse me! #Monsterdon

That security guard really wants to die in the line of duty …

#Monsterdon #Zarkorr1996

I dunno, this guy doesn't seem in the kind of physical shape required to defeat Parkour #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
#ZarkorrTheInvader1996

Sorry buddy we spent the SWAT team budget on the giant props for the tiny alien #monsterdon

#monsterdon Keep him talking lady. He's so loud they'll find you in no time.

I have chosen a side. Go Zarkorr go!

#Monsterdon #TeamZarkorr

Is this supposed to have... "humor"?
What even is tone? What is acting?
#Monsterdon #Zarkorr

Okay, let's not have a Plup Fiction momrent here...

#Monsterdon

#monsterdon what if this movie was about the main guy going on the run with his hostage and it wasn't about Zarkorr at all

ACAB actors

#Monsterdon

Bigger than a monster crushing everything? This is bigger news/?#Monsterdon

Aliens a little white supremacists maybe?
Superior beings can do anything!
#monsterdon

Does the word 'no' mean anything to you?

Uh, probably not, I work in TV #Monsterdon

C'mon, where is #zarkorr1996 to step on this guy and end this movie already?
#monsterdon

Excuse me, does "Excuse me" mean anything to you?

#Monsterdon

Tubi ad is tips for safe cannabis use, can't help but feel like it was chosen specifically for this movie #Monsterdon #ZarkorrTheInvader
#ZarkorrTheInvader1996

I wonder what Zarkorr is doing right now.

#Monsterdon

YELLING IS ACTING!!!

Evergreen #Monsterdon tweet.

ACAB

#monsterdon

"You had your chance. If you're going to patronize me, at least do a better job of it."

Okay, one of the few good lines in this movie so far. 🤣

#monsterdon

#monsterdon So many deflated male egos on parade…

I'm rooting for the security guards. They're the best characters so far.

#monsterdon
#zarkorrtheinvader1996

does now mean…banana? #Monsterdon

I can't believe that guns aren't solving all of his problems. I thought this was an American film #Monsterdon

#monsterdon You're having a supporting actor crisis…

@xerozohar Seems kind of unfair! Also like something you can and should say no to!

#monsterdon #karkorr1996
