My latest list is a ranked list of the 200 best sci-fi movies from the 50s.
The 1950s is widely regarded as the Golden Age of science fiction cinema and that decade shaped the future of sci-fi movies.

A bunch of these have been shown in the #Monsterdon watch party here on Mastodon, and The Tingler is in the poll for this week's #ReMonsterdon (watch party of previous Monsterdon films, Sunday 7pm UTC, 9pm Central Europe, 3pm US Eastern)
Hopefully I can see many more, if not all, of these

We're sitting at 94%/6% in favor of IN THE YEAR 2889 (1967) being the WORST #MONSTERDON MOVIE OF THE YEAR
which is pretty crazy
You should vote in the poll :D

And as another movie ends with all the grace of a plane crash, we say aloha to one really awful film. As always, just one last thing to do before you leave the theater:
Was IN THE YEAR 2889 (1967) the WORST #MONSTERDON MOVIE OF THE YEAR?

agh hell it's sunday and I forgot about #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Tonight at 9pm (that's 1am UTC) come watch a goofy monster movie with us! C'mon it'll be fun.
This week we're watching IN THE YEAR 2889 (1967) in which the future is, of course, a nuclear hellscape and mutants run rampant! Gotta say from the trailer, the future is kind of suspiciously lush and green for a nuclear hellscape.
Anyway the flick's free with ads over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/611828/in-the-year-2889
Or you can download from Archive.org over here: https://archive.org/details/InTheYear28891967
Unfortunately the only available print is kinda ass. Ah well, bad movie, bad print, it's thematically appropriate at least.
See you tonight!

Aspiring fantasy author and geek, retired due to a bunch of chronic illnesses. The Last Philosopher is my first book under the subtitle, Nothing is Everything. It's been called imaginative, funny, and unique. People have even gone so far as to compare it to #DouglasAdams and #TerryPratchett. My response to that comparison, is to go hide under the covers for a week with embarrassment. Posts about books, nature, and geekstuff. #Writing #Author #Indie #Fantasy #Comedy #Satire #NoAI #fedi22

I should really watch DS9 again, in my not so humble opinion it's the best Star Trek there's been so far 😊

"The company’s #ALITA system will consist of 16 launch pads, equipped with 64 drones. It will be ready by October and capable of watching for incoming drones, automatically launching and travelling towards the target at 450 kilometres per hour before taking out everything from small drones to helicopters."
So there is a #scifi inspiration
But it's not the #Terminator
it's the classic Japanese #cyberpunk #manga "Battle Angel Alita" with its cyborg anime teenager. later a Robert Rodriguez movie

EDIT: FOUND !!!
I'll avoid spoilers for those who enjoy the chase, I'll happily reply to DMs asking for the answer
------------------
Here's a real challenge for die hard fans of older #SciFi ...
I remember in my teens in Australia, 70s?, reading a story or novel in which two computers (or neural nets) were interacting, having a conversation in English, and at one point one of them offered the other a banana.
The humans who were watching discussed this, and one said that this was an insult in the language they used.
Does this ring any bells? Does anyone recognise this?
Help?
(Boosts for reach would be very welcome ... thank you to those who have already done so!)

gotwrappedupinplantingatreebuti'mbacknow IT'S #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! In half an hour(ish)! Come watch a horrible monster movie with us! Or set up a hashtag filter to avoid it, it's kind of a lot!
This week we're watching CLASS OF 1999 (1990)! Come see what the ass-end of the Reagan era thought twenty years ago would look like! There's teenage gangs just like the 1950s (boomers, eh?) but also killer cyborgs! C'mon, it'll be a blast.
The flick's available free with ads over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/343309/class-of-1999

This week we're watching CLASS OF 1999 (1990), a sort of Last-Of-The-Reaganauts, What's-Wrong-With-The-Kids-Today picture about killer robot teachers. Imagine The Substitute, but the hardass teacher is a murder robot.
...I may be overselling this film.

In about three weeks, I'll launch my new novella, about an old woman with social anxiety who finds herself organising the defence of a decentralised nation when colonisers invade to steal the tech that makes her village a #solarpunk utopia. It is available for pre-order in all major stores (I think), but you can also get it from my small press, and there is a sample chapter available.

No mater how famous or wealthy, this is what every Black person, and especially Black women and children, can expect from the healthcare system anywhere in the US.
A New Mexico jury awarded the family of Star Trek icon Nichelle Nichols $13 million in a wrongful death lawsuit against the Gila Regional Medical Center in Silver City, New Mexico.
An expert informed jury ruled the hospital provided substandard care, failed to properly diagnose a treatable heart condition, and then discharging her hours before her death in 2022.
News media are already attempting to softpedal the story. Don't let them!

Folks, it is ONE HOUR until #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Better set up a hashtag filter if you wanna avoid a bunch of goofy toots about a bad monster movie.
If you'd like to join in, this week we're watching SEEDPEOPLE (1992), which looks *truly* horrible - the monsters in the trailer are somewhere between adorable and second-grade papier mache project :P
The flick is free with ads over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/478272/seedpeople
Or you can download from Archive.org over here: https://archive.org/details/seedpeople-1992-720p
Just hit play at the top of the hour and toot along! See you there :D
