Alright from the very first title card it looks like the Tubi version (left) is substantially different from the archive.org version (right). anyone got any info on the various releases of this movie? #monsterdon

jonny (good kind)

ya woof, the tubi version is like a million times clearer than the archive.org version. idk if that's some "AI upsampling" thing or if it is just a much better restoration #monsterdon

jonny (good kind)

it looks like both of them are cropping the original in some way - in the tubi version, it's been cropped vertically to be 16:9, but the archive.org version is cropped horizontally and has vertical black bands around the edges. what in tarnation #monsterdon

jonny (good kind)

For those of u just joining us pre-show #monsterdon - the archive.org version is really bad, and so if you want to see the tubi version without ads i've rehosted it on @monsterdon here: tube.me.jon-e.net/w/58a6uu9emi

and @ryan is hosting the Spanish audio version over here: miru.miyaku.media/

( i've started a list of alternative monsterdon sources here, so if you also regularly provide a stream, lmk and i'll add it to the list: wiki.neuromatch.social/Monster )

punching a dude in the throat is a hell of a way to make an entrance #monsterdon

jonny (good kind)

look the movie is literally titled "wrestling women vs the aztec mummy" so you better believe we are going to get 25% of the runtime being literal wrestling women. this rocks #monsterdon

jonny (good kind)

what kind of pin is holding someone's arms out to the side like that is that regulation #monsterdon

jonny (good kind)

when she says "you and i almost didn't even make it" is she saying death is an option in these matches? #monsterdon

TIMESTAMP TO GO BACK AND CLIP THE GUY BEHIND THE PILLAR #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

the guy creeping over the window and that guys wailing voice, this movie is so good it's hard to put into words, i am just speechless #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

i have no idea why they are setting up this three's company cohabitation situation but it can only be good for the movie #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

the cohabitation plan didn't even last a single scene #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

dog be fucking careful with how you handle thousand year old documents there isn't a backup of the codex #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

"now watch as i dominate this girl's will" is an incredible localization near-miss, that is just in the uncanny valley of "things that are syntactically and semantically valid but not things that would ever be said exactly like that" #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

couldn't even get the voice actor to pretend like that limberger cheese joke worked #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

WHAT does that "as an amazon, you're the greatest" line mean. #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

the tall woman chopped the short guy into the room..? and then fought the people that were in the room? is anyone on anyone's side or what are they doing? #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

this fucking movie is so fucking good i can't even keep up with all the awesome things that keep happening #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

yes yes yes tee up another 10 minute long wrestling scene please please please. we are only 30 minutes in and there have already been like 40 movies #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

for the love of fuck the injection i am laughing myself silly #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

i am literally deceased with the serial injecting #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

choosing to direct it with the voiceover from the mind controlling guy sometimes also being treated as her having said what he's saying by the people in the scene is that triple-layer dubbing where the voice actor might as well not matter anymore #Monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

man does anyone have any clue what is going on #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

i really need to get into the gym with the homies i don't think we could erupt into an all-against-all brawl like this #Monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

bro just swore on his ancient Chinese stereotype #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

not one thing that was just said in that reading of the poster is ok to say #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

"we have our secret weapons, like pressure holds, and we can punch them too if we need to" this DIALOGUE #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

ok perfect. we are at the halfway point, another 10 minute long wrestling scene and we have the second half of the movie to get into some mummy shit. perfectly paced #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

the immediate instinct to go after the ref when they are trying to call a KO is how you can tell its real #Monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

the tall woman is a weapon she is just dominant #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

on the other hand you can see how really big size mismatches can be a disadvantage where the shorter woman can just scramble out of all the holds. it's one of the reasons why wrestling without punching is an interesting sport #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

hahahhahahaha the fucking knockout by jangling someone around on your back for a second is the best win of all time, she really earned it #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

ok so hang on gang leader's plan was to just leave after the wrestling match? you're already doing crime just keep trying to steal the codex #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

I want to live in a world where you can just judo chop your way out of the cops #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

everybody chill we're getting set up perfectly for arriving at the mummy in 10 minutes, doing all the mummy exposition in 5 minutes, which leaves 15 minutes for mummy wrestling #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

always a bold move to have a whole sequence of "quietly waiting for anything to happen while one guy reads things" #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

my call for mummy arrival was with 20 minutes remaining in the movie, so that's 1:08 or in about 5 minutes. just marking it bc we're almost there #Monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

now who on earth are the pyramid guardian gang edit: nevermind its the same gang they just look extremely goofy outside in those suits #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

these pyramid spelunking sound effects are exactly the same sound effects as the anti-ohm devices in Fantastic Planet #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

fuck i was 40 seconds off mummy arrival time:
my prediction: T-20 minutes (1:08:28)
actual arrival time: 1:09:08
mummy in frame: 1:09:50-ish
#monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

hehahhahahhahahahaahahahhahah THAT WAS IT AHhshhfehewahahhuifaiuwhefiaweulf #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

if that is all the mummy they show that will be the funniest possible way for this movie to go lmao #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

my prediction was also that the final 15 minutes would be mummy wrestling, and i was basically right on the mark with that one. #monsterdon

jonny (good kind) replied to jonny (good kind)

i love how they just like couldnt afford the set for a "base that is nearer to the pyramids" so they have to keep going back and forth to the fucking shared apartment #monsterdon
