Good point, I'll remember to include the full instructions if we do this again! 😆

Yeah discuss away! I'm just settling down with it now so I might...what's the JA equivalent or live tweeting? I might do that! 😁

Well the dialogue is killer, particularly between 43:00 - 48:20

Of course, that’s an excerpt from Moon Moon Moo-Moo Moon by Meager Allen Feux. Absolute pooetry

BoomerMod8/26/2024, 9:02:30 PM

I'm about half way through. I was expecting far more...space...in Killers from Space 😅

Horror and Cats 8/26/2024, 10:05:06 PM

I mean, I'm FROM California, but there would be no California if someone made a movie about my day today haha

Oh that doesn't sound good! 😬

Horror and Cats 8/26/2024, 10:42:27 PM

Oh no it’s because I moved to Oregon lol. I could be from space, but I’m on earth now so there’s your movie haha. I’m defending the indefensible deficit of space as a joke!

The film must have had an impact on my mind! Maybe I need to sleep it off 😆

Horror and Cats 8/27/2024, 2:01:09 AM

Oh my god I forgot what the bomber’s code name was at the beginning 😱

Honestly that's not a phrase I've come across before (and won't write it here)! 😬

I can only hope it was a reference to:

a difficult problem which is only aggravated by attempts to solve it. - Oxford English Dictionary

The example given by Oxford Languages (dictionary entry at the top of Google) makes it seem more likely.

"disposal of nuclear waste was a problem whose solution was endlessly delayed, a [phrase] no one wanted anything to do with"

Horror and Cats 8/27/2024, 9:11:01 AM

Still certainly not a positive connotation lol.

So did you enjoy the approximately ten minutes of lizard, tarantula and cockroach stock footage while Peter Graves ran around looking only mildly perturbed?

BoomerMod8/27/2024, 10:27:32 AM

Horror and Cats

That sequence was the highlight of the film, made all the better by the incomprehensible subtitles! 😆 It's like the auto-subtitling was listening to more than one source of dialogue and it just did its best 😊

Also, I wonder what this actually means! 😆
