Tonight! A very special #Monsterdon guest!
When this post is about one hour old (7 MDT) a whole island-full of people will be watching Monthra (1962) and posting Entirely Too Much about it! If that is Entirely Too Much for you, you can mute the hashtag. Or better yet, you can join us!
And hey who's this‽ Why, it's the crocheted mothman, by none other than @lapis , that I received for participating in #MonsterdonSavesChristmas ! In honor of the fact that her first Monsterdon movie is Mothra, her name is... Monthra! Let's all join the miniature twins in summoning her for our protection!

my second favourite trivia is that on the home video release there was a subtitle option for "martian" that was all ANK ANK ANK ANK ANK ANK the entire movie
btw the english translation of the original story that MOTHRA was adapted from has just recently been published!

Has anyone mentioned yet that Mothra was the first #Monsterdon film? At least according to Monsterdon Replay. March 24 2022. We've been doing this for almost four years.

Q: oh, so the island where Mothra's from is populated by tiny people in a magical-other-lands way, like Gulliver's Travels or the islands Odysseus visited?A: no, it's inhabited by regular sized people. The twins are the only ones who are tiny.
Q: why?
A: none of your business.
