I mean, Tolkien's economics never made sense, either.

You had Osgiliath at the mouth of the Anduin and nothing upstream of it to explain where all of the goods coming down the river would be coming from,... and their one overseas trading partner (Numernor) having been wiped off the face of the earth by Angry Gods.

..or the Lake Town where it's just them, Tharundil's cranky elves in the woods, and the dragon Smaug (who is really more of a net value-sink than anything else).

Granted my tolerance for shitty movies from the 80s and tits on screen might be tilted because I grew up in the 80s. #Monsterdon

and to be clear I love the stuffing out of @Taweret@timeloop.cafe especially and my entire #Monsterdon fam, particularly @miru@social.miyaku.media for the cast I always watch and the double feature I stick around for!

@RachelThornSub@famichiki.jp I guess I'm just an old crone then, but when I saw the list I was sure there was no way Wizards would win, having seen all the movies that were options. But given the way #Monsterdon loves to pick the same movies over, and over, and over, and over, and over... again, at the expense of better options, a blacklist might not be a bad idea?

I couldn't stick with #monsterdon double feature. Not even tasteful* nudity could get me to watch any more of that. Thanks as always to @Taweret@timeloop.cafe for giving us the opportunity to do this to ourselves once a week, @JoeWynne@mstdn.plus for the weekly libations, @LuciaG@wandering.shop for the bingo and @miru@social.miyaku.media for bringing us a double feature and backup streaming!

We saw:

  • The two extreme ends of Sword and Sandal badness as defined by the MPAA ratings system.
  • recycled deathstalker II footage. you can tell from II because of the boys' halter tops.
  • (Gulfax Grunts)
  • Time Travelling Expy Mike Nelson
  • The Dune/Star Wars mashup in nobody's AO3 folder,
  • Grigora Samsova: Assassin for hire
  • "Well Flirting for Beginners" Starring David Carradine, for Coronet Pictures
  • Some of the best film sets since before the local Renfaire pulled their standups out of storage and put a fresh coat of paint on for this season
  • So very tired Drauger, the most relatable character(s) in any Monsterdon we've ever seen -(Gulfax grunts)

@crowbriarhexe@tech.lgbt I agree that we should have standards. Of course, it's nigh on impossible to find old movies that aren't to some degree misogynistic or "passively white supremacist," but we need a blacklist, I think, and this film should be on it. I think most of us are voting based entirely on titles, posters, and trailers. I had no idea this film would be so misogynistic (not that I voted for it). #monsterdon

Yeah, I did check out THE VISITOR on wikipedia and doesthedogdie and tho it does have some bad stuff happening in it, it doesn't look exploitational. If that's true then join me in voting for THE VISITOR! @crowbriarhexe@tech.lgbt #Monsterdon #VoteVisitor

Like.... you, you know "Them" is available on Tubi, right? Along with movies like "The Deadly Mantis" and, heck, even just "The War Of The Worlds", and a zillion other movies that don't involve children being creeped on or topless enslaved women being beaten, right? There are even '80s movies with plot and production values and good writing and characterization that are *still* easily riffable, believe it or not.#Monsterdon #WizardsOfTheLostKingdom #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #TheWarriorAndTheSorceress1984

This is quite literally the shittiest Monsterdon weekend I've ever experienced. All joke-y "please vote for Sting Of Death" forbearance aside, I'm begging you people to have at least a passing understanding of just how offensive the shit you're voting for is before you, you know, vote for it. IMDB and DoesTheDogDie are RIGHT THERE. There's "haha this is terrible" bad and then there's "Gamergate jerks off to this" bad #Monsterdon #WizardsOfTheLostKingdom #MonsterdonDoubleFeature #TheWarriorAndTheSorceress1984
