Taking the backhoe out for a constitutional. #Monsterdon
"...Bad dates." #Monsterdon
"Morning!"
"Good naked! I mean morning!" #Monsterdon
Captain, stop trying to enforce your primitive ideas of modesty on this woman. #Monsterdon
Love theme for Theremin and Spooky Whistle <3 #Monsterdon
YOU SHOT THE CAT
YOU SON OF A BITCH #Monsterdon
I appreciate that the captain isn't trying to force his attentions, but he is kind of Victorian. #Monsterdon
The time has come for clarification! I'll strain the broth, you get the gelatin ready. #Monsterdon
...So the Altarians were squat pyramids? #Monsterdon
"I've come here every day for two decades."
And yet, I still cannot build an Interocitor. #Monsterdon
See, the thing about expository lore-building is you have to have something actually interesting to talk about. A lot of movies fall flat simply because they don't have anything worth talking about. #Monsterdon
Oh, so the Krell died when they exploded into orange Tang. #Monsterdon
WELCOME
TO THE MAGRATHEAN FACTORY FLOOR #Monsterdon
And here's where we power the Death Star's shields from... Ignore Alec Guiness in the robe there. #Monsterdon
And here's where we store the neon honeycomb... #Monsterdon
Oo, laser fence, nice :D #Monsterdon
Cook's about to get men killed for booze. #Monsterdon
Rob, don't take to the camera, it's unprofessional. #Monsterdon
Wait, NOW it leaves footprints?? #Monsterdon
Oh, Morbius has judged mankind and found it wanting. Well, fine, we'll just abandon the greatest scientific inventory ever found because Doctor Beardy doesn't like how popular rap music is. #Monsterdon
"It's started again."
Yep, people have started contracting Exploding Torso Disease again. I told them the pandemic wasn't over. #Monsterdon
Well, the Waffle Guns are active and ready. Bring on the Maple Syrup Men. #Monsterdon
OH NICE :D #Monsterdon
Now THAT'S a monster :D #Monsterdon
DODGE ROLL, YOU IDIOTS, DODGE THE CLAW STRIKES AND PUNISH THE TAIL SWEEP, have you people never seen a Rathalos before!? #Monsterdon
Oh, *electron* volts. #Monsterdon
...Wait, was that "gilt-edged" or "guilt-edged"? :/ #Monsterdon
...Darling? DARLING???
OH, oh wait, hold up, sorry. This is their third scene together. Never mind. They're in love now. Carry on. #Monsterdon
Hey, I played bass for Monsters From the Id in college. #Monsterdon
HOW ROMANTIC! The fool, the meddling idiot! And other things said by people who DEFINITELY aren't villains! #Monsterdon
Morbius, Morbius, you've been Morbin' in your sleep, doctor #Monsterdon
"She's joined herself to me, body and soul!"
Three scenes, Morbius! We're inseparable now! #Monsterdon
Oh he's Morbin' now. #Monsterdon
"We're all monsters in our subconscious, so we have laws and religion!"
Ooooo, man, I cannot tell you how those things do not help :x #Monsterdon
Mm, Jiffy Pop door #Monsterdon
Oh man, that's a great effect with the monster punching through the door :D #Monsterdon
Ooo, has Morbius finally accepted his shadow self? Get him an Evoker, see if he's got a Persona! #Monsterdon
C'mon over here, honey, let's watch your home blow up. How romantic. #Monsterdon
Yeah yeah, as though a million souls cried out at once and then were silenced. Lunch? #Monsterdon
The end! Yeah, so nobody in the 50s knew how to write a believable romance, huh? #Monsterdon
But yeah, that was fun! You can see what *literally every sci fi movie made for four decades after* was chasing, huh. #Monsterdon
Shower thoughts about Forbidden Planet:
Y'know, I think that might've been the first 1950s movie we've seen in a LONG time where the monster was NOT Communism. #Monsterdon
Also, I'm a little annoyed the opening narration *specifically says* "Men AND women in rocket ships" and then gives us an all-male crew :/ #Monsterdon
Anyway I'm headcanoning Cookie as an egg just to shore up the numbers, anybody with me? #Monsterdon
(ironically this STILL does not result in a Bechdel pass >_>) #Monsterdon
@CactuarJoe To be fair, Alta was on the ship for the trip back to Earth…
@CactuarJoe My biggest shower thought is that there was coffee, but no one was smoking. (A sign of the it being set in the future?)
Also interesting to see the brief time period where flying saucer meant future tech rather than aliens.
@CactuarJoe The Krell didn't understand id, and 50s Hollywood didn't understand superego.
@CactuarJoe Nobody in the 50s had ever experienced believable romance.
At least none of the script writers
@CactuarJoe looked like a believable 50s romance to me
