Hey all, #comedon night is back this week after a week off, for this Thursday starting at 7pm PT

This week we are watching a comedy-horror moving from 1960, The Little Shop of Horrors! It has a few scenes with #JackNicholson and it's one of his first silver screen appearances.

Links will be posted Thursday

Anyone and everyone is welcome join! Hate speech is not

So #Comedon and #Monsterdon are showing the same movie the same week? What are the odds?

(I think the #Comedon toot flow will be more readable.)

@klu9 I can promise you that was not on purpose lol. I honestly don’t remember what inspired that particular movie, but I knew I wanted to do a bit of a genre switch up while staying in comedy after we did the #NakedGun rewatches

The gif reaction to the #Monsterdon announcement makes me think the comedy is still strong in the film

@greenpepper22

I call shenanigans!

This is all part of some secret experiment on Mastodon users, A/B testing the same film across different communities so as to learn how to better market to people...umm... genetically modified plants that feed on human blood?

Well, it won't work on me, I ain't gonna buy one!

@klu9 lol, damn you caught us. Getting nerds to watch the same movies over and over is such an unsolvable and important problem. #mastodon is the perfect place to figure it out, I think it was the whole reason it ever got built

@greenpepper22 As @klu9 noted, #Monsterdon is also screening LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS (1960) this weekend, so FYI, @CactuarJoe has posted a handy list of streaming sources (that I've added to the #WatchPartyCalendar for Sunday night) which may also be helpful for tonight's #Comedon

This Sunday at 9pm EST (that's 1am Monday UTC) it's #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Come watch a goofy monster movie with the rest of the fediverse! This week we're watching LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS (1960)! No, that's not the Rick Moranis version, this is the Roger Corman version. Yeah, I'm honestly curious, too. Apparently it was shot in 2 days flat on a budget of less than $30k, so it should be interesting ^^; The flick's available free with ads over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/382527/the-little-shop-of-horrors Or over on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj_17y6i4O4 Or you can download in advance from Archive.org: https://archive.org/details/the-little-shop-of-horrors-1960-full-movie-hd-1080p-1080-x-1440.mp-4-converted See you this Sunday! #Movies #Cinema #Cinemastodon #Horror #Scifi
