Ben Ford :grinchsmile:<p>Watching delayed <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Monsterdon</span></a> and it bugs me how the subtitles keep spelling ‘lightning’ as though they were lightening hair color or something.</p>
Randy_underscore_S<p>Thanks as always to <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://timeloop.cafe/@Taweret" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Taweret</span></a></span> for. an amazing experience, <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@Cherizilla" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>Cherizilla</span></a></span> and <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mindly.social/@joewynne" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>joewynne</span></a></span> for keeping us sane and distracted with activities and drinks. This week brought us "Laserblast", a film about a 30 year old teenager who did "Falling Down" in the 70's with Frikking Lazers. Let's count our blessings though:</p><p>- This is <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/MONSTERDON" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MONSTERDON</span></a> FAVORITE Eddie Deezen's first Role. Thanks film, for that.<br>- Legally distinct yacht rock, somehow.<br>- The spiritual successor to the Coleman Francis "Trilogy", truly. Like its predecessors this film had the moral compass of &lt;pick your serial killer&gt;<br> - Special guest appearance from Petey the Plane!<br> - Petey the plane was sadly blasted with Lasers, and his chute was fouled with acid ;_;<br>- Some relatively delightful stop-motion creatures. Someone give them their own movie franchise or TV series, please!<br>- A mother fulfilling her destiny, picking up Shaklee diet pills in Alcopulco.<br>- The grossest lovemaking scene ever committed to film.<br>- Sartorial choices.</p>
Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:<p>The most sympathetic character in the movie is the hippie driver who picks Billy up. <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a></p>
Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:<p>it's the Emergency Alert One Task Force, in their airplane! <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a></p>
Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:<p>ok. that's over. <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a> </p><p>Laserblast made me so angry, I had to write my own take. I have fifty-odd books out. I should know better. But noooo, I had to write an alien blaster that turns you green novel with actual story.</p><p>I'm gonna throw one "back my kickstarter" plea out there for <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/Laserblasted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Laserblasted</span></a>.

Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:<p>it's taking an awful long time to gun Billy down here, compared to the last time. Logically, they're doing something different.</p><p>No, don't think.

Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:<p>"we're not allowed to blow up the prop buildings, so get all the random junk you can and blow that up." <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a></p>

Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:<p>note where we were. In the desert.</p><p>now, suddenly, we're on the highway, where there's greenery and stuff.</p><p>amazing, how that happens.</p><p>blasting gives you energy, and prevents dehydration even when your mouth is hanging open? <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a> </p><p>also, that's an awfully long song they're listening to in the 50s car?</p>
Michael Lucas :flan_set_fire:<p>Now he's literally beating his chest in defiance of Emergency Alert One Squad. &lt;sob&gt; <a href="https://io.mwl.io/tags/monsterdon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>monsterdon</span></a></p>
