@filmfileuk Monsterdon had a blast with it a month back, that's where I came across it.

@diazona It's disorienting being so much better than #StarCrash! We needed a mediocre transition movie. This one is genuinely good!
You missed a gem last night on Monsterdon, you really did.....
@izzaboo In defense of “Star Crash” (a phrase never before written) there was a pretty amazing John Barry soundtrack for this movie buried under … [waves hands vaguely at random starcrash of a plot and special effects] … all that. How did they manage to get John Barry and an entire symphony to do the score for this?! If ever a movie demanded a one-man score with a drum machine and a synthesizer, it was this movie!
@izzaboo It shared some of the same art deco styling and the same fine disregard for physics. And yet somehow “Flash Gordon” worked because it understood how to be consistent within its own universe while #Starcrash was just an amazing random amalgamation of sci-fi images and notions glued together. #Monsterdon
Was I the only viewer reminded more of Flash Gordon than of Star Wars? (I have to admit I did not read all of the thousands of toots about #StarCrash #Monsterdon .)
Starting #Starcrash late tonight, so I’m out of sync with the #monsterdon feed. But by checking IMDB I’ve discovered a major plot problem in the 2nd half of this movie:
“Caroline Munro was originally going to wear a skimpy leather bikini outfit through the entire film, but American studio executives insisted that writer/director Luigi Cozzi have Munro wear less provocative clothing in the second half because they thought the film would have problems being broadcast on network television.”
christ i have two bars of that theme just stuck in my head in a loop
help meeeeeeeee
anyway i've already forgot most of that so before I forget that it actually happened good job everybody and thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting ^_^
@diazona Nobody knew their lines IN THE LOOP SESSIONS, where they could have them ON PAPER IN FRONT OF THEM.
Truly legendary.
s'funny
it's one of the more claustrophobic representations of outer space i've ever seen
all those fairie lights in cardboard really make the end of the universe seem, like, _right there_ or something
@diazona oh no it's done it was just right up against the movie so I got stalled out talking about it
@ryan Thanks for streaming #StarCrash for #Monsterdon starting with the soundtrack/interview!
This concludes my #monsterdon thread for #starcrash, a movie that is a superposition of "Amazing" and "Terrible" at the same time.
I wanted the space amazons to come back and do more wacky anime gestures. Maybe have their giant fembot shoot a shatner ray at the emperor's fighters or something. But that would require more continuity than this movie could spare, I guess?
OMG, music by #JohnBarry! I knew I recognized James Bond in that theme!
Also, I just wa5xhed #TheBlackHole recently.
