@CindyWeinstein@zirk.us Massachusetts showed that a one time tax isn’t necessary; you can keep taxing them, every year, and not just the billionaires, either. Turns out they DON’T go running off to Two-Penny Town, Alabama, when a blue state calls their bluff.

“Everything should be A-okay!” And Other Phrases Said Moments Before Disaster #Monsterdon

Uggggggghhhhhhhhhh can we do without the compulsive hetero shit just ONCE #Monsterdon

Just experienced some time scrambling myself because a certain little furred bastard decided to paw at the screen, sending me shooting forward not once, but twice. #Monsterdon

I bet this would work WAY better as a radio programme. It’s basically 75% of the way there, anyway. #Monsterdon

PMOW of the Opera (1966) #Monsterdon

Lol you can clearly see the “rocks” she falls back onto move and shift like bags. #Monsterdon

6968 god damnit so FUCKING close #Monsterdon

Gosh if they’d cycled those photons any faster that could’ve been bad. #Monsterdon

@xerozohar@retro.pizza It’s okay because lasers fall into the spacetime continuum if you phase the photons at the right trigonometry; it’s really simple, you see.

Is this an LOTR reference …yes I know the movies came out decades later but this is a movie about time travel #Monsterdon

Can someone get Elon out of Ground Control before he spaces the astronauts, please #Monsterdon

“Time” is gonna sound like a fake word before the end of this thing, huh. #Monsterdon

Gotta love the Future Chic that’s all smooth, curved surfaces with texture in a single color wall. It’s like we had to trade dimensionality for timewarping abilities. #Monsterdon

@floatybirb@mastodon.social I think a valid case could be made for Best SupportingActor for that bedroom decor, because that was all I could look at. Really stole the show.

I have a bad feeling about the survival of this group, because I’ve seen all of their hides turned into armchairs. #Monsterdon

Hooo boy this may be hard for people with some negative sexual experiences to watch :/ #Monsterdon

Ah yes, my assistant, Igon Frankenstone of Bleh-Tante Referanz Castle. #Monsterdon

STOP FORGETTING YOUR WRONGS AND ACTUALLY RIGHT THEM YOU WALKING PICNIC TABLE #Monsterdon

They have to turn around because their tanks are out. It’s like 8-15 feet of the clearest water I’ve ever seen. Do they not have snorkels?? #Monsterdon

…are…are they gonna shoot the jellyfish. #Monsterdon

All the casual, cheerful sexism of an early James Bond but no cool gadgets and spy machinations. Blech. #Monsterdon

Four zoomed in buttshots (so far). Modern cinema wishes it could be this sexy. #Monsterdon

I have to apologize to Businessman, NotJr; he’s actually been more on the ball about time and its consequences than the scientists have been. Truly a dismal future. #Monsterdon

Someone who lived through the sixties: was it like this? Because all I’m getting is filler song lyrics in front of people pantomiming in what would be some Claritin knockoff ad. #Monsterdon

Oh, right, I forgot that basic human dignity is communism. #Monsterdon

How did none of them see the struggle until the end I can’t wear my glasses in the water and even I would’ve seen that. It’s a guy in a wets-uhhh, a large, humanoid dark shape in an otherwise blindingly light pool #Monsterdon

I’m guessing the computer they’re using for this needs a massive amount of storage to handle calculations of this magnitude. It might even be in the thousands of kilobytes! #Monsterdon

Telemetry is my favorite technobabble term, what’s yours? #Monsterdon

Okay what’s the funniest/most ridiculous “time [noun]” term in this movie? “Timescreen” has to be outdone. #Monsterdon

Watch as our hero, Benevolent Sexism Man, attacks the monster, Mr. Can’t-Wear-Condoms-Right, for the heart of our heroine, Lady She of the Hairbowls. …with assistance from my cat, whose pawing at the screen and CONSTANTLY STEPPING ON THE KEYBOARD gives our two battlers a breather QUITE often. #Monsterdon

Yes, I -know- they said they’re in the Everglades, but just for me, we can pretend this is Bikini Atoll, right? Everyone gather close together - here, have some shades - this party’ll get WAY hotter soon. #Monsterdon

Holy shit that is a SIXTIES sixties bedroom. #Monsterdon

Welp nevermind you had your chance #Monsterdon

A THIRD TIME YOU LITTLE SHIT #Monsterdon

Wait the movie’s almost over?? They went two places in time! #Monsterdon

They must not go very fast in that boat or those huge cowboy hats would get flipped off instantly. #Monsterdon

What was that scream? Fuck that, what are those SHORTS?? #Monsterdon

The “but that’s not important” phrase just activated me like a fucking sleeper agent. #Monsterdon

Scientist making a crack at taxes; that’s how you know this wasn’t written by a scientist. #Monsterdon

I hesitate to say there’s ever a “too late” when dealing with time travel, but only thinking about the consequences of time travel after doing it is, uh… #Monsterdon

“Your camera takes photographs of the past?” “Every camera takes photographs of the past.” #Monsterdon

I assume this movie’s title is more about, like, the heart or nature of time, not its midpoint…right? #Monsterdon

It’s just like Psycho, except for everything that’s different. #Monsterdon

The technobabble really doesn’t hit now like it would’ve back in 1967. “It’s a laser!” “Yeah? I use one for my cat.” Makes you wonder what nowadays technobabble is gonna be cringe in a few decades. I’m guessing anything with nanobots. #Monsterdon

Well. That was. Something vaguely movie shaped. And it had sound. It even lasted an hour and thirty. I think there were people in it? #Monsterdon

Imagine if a movie today did that, but with a queer couple. Sure, our only onscreen interactions have involved you talking down to me, watching you take part in a violent mob, and cleaning up several bodies both living and dead, but the rain is just so romantic, isn’t it? They’d reinstate the Hays Code within the week. #Monaterdon

The survival instinct of poorly congealed lard and the peripheral vision of a dying mole. #Monsterdon

Yeaaaah that movie would’ve worked a lot better as a radio play. The visuals added nothing but took a hell of a lot away. #Monsterdon
