#monsterdon #monsterdonBingo

hit em with the tiny net!!!!!! #monsterdon
was audio culture just like different in the 70s and that pew sounded cool then because how in the fuck would you go with that PEW #monsterdon
IS THIS A BECHDEL PASS #monsterdon #bechdelPass
does it count as a bechdel pass if the women discuss only matriarchy and only a man if the man is treated as property in a matriarchy #monsterdon
@jonny Judith Butler did not prepare me for this
i sort of forgot what the whole movie is about or why anything is happening but this matriarchy sure is taking a lot of time being hamfistedly established line by line #monsterdon
in case the audience has forgotten remember you are a MAN and that is BAD because we are a MATRIARCHY #monsterdon
will the guy being scared and having his voice quiver and stuff telegraph to the audience that the food induces fear? nah we better have him say food induces fear a couple times just in case #Monsterdon
there's no way i'm getting "surprisingly good dialog" on my bingo card tonight #monsterdon
for a society that is based entirely around slap fighting for dominance that matriarch lady sucks ass at fighting #monsterdon

@jonny what do you expect from a society that learned to fight from Gene Roddenberry

#monsterdon

so like the theory of gender is that women are direct and small skirmishes establish a clear meritocratic chain of dominance, and men are bad because they lie and that makes larger wars and politics and whatnot. and then we have just a typically militaristic man faction that seems to be perfectly truthful just like lower gravely voices and sorta ugly looking. what are they setting up here exactly? #monsterdon
who is this space lady and man and what are they doing here again? #monsterdon
i am tremendously bored and with that i have bingo
#monsterdon #monsterdonBingo
the underlying plot is that someone at some place we haven't seen needs heart surgery? when did they even say that???? why would we care/???? #monsterdon

@jonny it was mentioned after they got back to Pax from their little excursion

but easy to miss because we have no reason to care about these stakes then (and even less now)

@jonny the dude who got shot by the people who I REALLY hope are not called "Cree"

#monsterdon

@jonny because frozen tube man feels responsible for him getting shot, so he jeopardized himself and 3 more people on a plan that immediately fell apart on a long shot no hope plan. and was allowed to do so.
#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974
@jonny @Crazypedia are they just going to leave the other two?
@UsagiTsukino @jonny right? i gave up on continuity when the whips came out.

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974
why wouldn't the space woman just fight all the other women until she owned all the men she needed to do whatever it is she needs to do #monsterdon
the dialogue. i am in pain. #monsterdon
i am rolling my eyes on the same tier as the preposterous sex and dollar backed society in "stranger from a strange land" and that's the most i am aware that eyes can roll #monsterdon
"trained to get ladies drunk" as a cultural practice #monsterdon
so the plot really is that this guy fucks this woman back into patriarchy huh #monsterdon
WHY EVEN HAVE the outer framing of the collapsed human society and "planet earth" and pax and the heart attack and whatever. #monsterdon
@jonny had to hide his kinks until filming was so far along they coulndt turn back and everyone knows producers dont read past the 5th page of a screenplay...

#Monsterdon #PlanetEarth1974
oh ok cool it's a new movie now i guess #monsterdon

@jonny they got as bored of it as we did

#monsterdon

8 minutes remaining to i guess uh resolve ummm #monsterdon
i sort of love the men as a sort of zergling swarm!!! #monsterdon
ok cool after beating up the invaders it's revealed that everyone else has not been drugging their dinks anyway because everyone else has been able to fend off the orc guy shakedowns, and the men are now... empowered.. to do something... and we have learned.. to not drug the men, however slavery remains unquestioned, and ahhh uhhh #monsterdon
@jonny imagine if we the audience had been given clues and allowed to put the pieces together

@jonny What if the women spend the ENTIRE movie talking about men?
