Mr. Peanut coming out of his shell to shame mankind

Well I've heard there was a secret stash
of amontillado in a cask
but you don't really care for sherry, do you?

How I feel about 90% of the time on Mastodon, but thanks for letting me hang out

where am I going to get my x-ray specs, whoopie cushions, and fake barf from now

nooooooooooooo 😭 😭 😭

hm, this movie is half over and nothing has actually happened yet

Oh this warp malfunction scene where the ship is supposed to be shaking but everyone is just kind of bouncing unconvincingly in their seats, I remember being so confused by the bouncing

Bones, complaining that sick bay is like working in a computer center

Ok boomer

Holy shit disco jumpsuit McCoy

I’m not sure I’ve watched this since my dad took me and my brother to see it in the theater (a dimly remembered experience) and good boy, the visual effects have not aged well at all

Me, eating pizza 🍕

If I were the boys, I would simply not leave town in the first place

I mean, how good are these going to look with the regatta blazer I made a few years back

(Fuck, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to lose a few pounds to fit into it now)

Folks,,, these are some great fucking shoes (pardon the boring tan pants)

Also, very excited at the chance to see both films on the big screen in March, I saw a test print of the original in the theater years ago and it was amazing. I've been mad at myself for missing 2049 in the theater during its original run, so hell yeah

just thinking about how well the tech and costume designs from the original movie have aged over the ensuing 38 years. They are definitely of their time (early 1980s) but they don't look hopelessly outdated in the way that, say, the costumes from Forbidden Planet (1956) already did by 1982.

I don't *think* it's because I grew up in that time as well, but I could be wrong.
