"(although we're now solidly in HOW THE HELL DOES THIS PLANET/SOCIETY ACTUALLY WORK? territory)."
Hm...for the place to have Not Already Burned Down Long Ago, there'd have to be *some* genetic factor limiting it.
And once you have enough history with instances of the Wrong Couple getting together, there'd be this damn huge incentive to keep track of who has Gene A, who has Gene B -- probably want both A and B to be recessive so that the % of the population where this is a Problem stays small --
and then Really Strict Rules re A+B pairings.
.... At the very least, if you want Forbidden Love stories with randy teenagers on the run blowing shit up, this is a way to get there....
((....why am I still awake?...))
And, of course, now I'm thinking what if the monogamy/marriage-contract part of it doesn't actually matter,
that the Fireball/Napalm Spell is really just an STD,
and the key to defeating the Beast is assembling the squad of Colwyn's and/or Lyssa's prior lovers,
and/or transitively back to wherever this power originates
or transitively forward if we have some number of inopportune deaths and [mid-battle] need to fuck out some more Fireball/Napalm Mages to get the job done...
That movie (which I'm guessing will never, ever get made) could conceivably not actually suck if it were done right
(although we're now solidly in HOW THE HELL DOES THIS PLANET/SOCIETY ACTUALLY WORK? territory).
((need more sleep...))
Also: If the King and the Lord Marshall are the **only** guys with The Key to All of the Handcuffs, that seems like a massive administrative bottleneck right there.
HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS KINGDOM WORK?
anyway good job team and thanks as always to @Taweret for hosting
@miriamrobern But I will say the snippy comments from the princess actress who was dubbed with an actress 15 years older than she, are kind of hilarious, she's definitely got some things to say about #Krull so thanks @ryan for finding the commentary version for your #Monsterdon follow-on!
@paco I honestly have always thought it was the name of the Big Bad. I never knew it was the name of the planet.
#Krull was the kind of bad that one likes to watch. Another successful #Monsterdon under my belt. Thanks all for the laughs and good times.
@blogdiva @combatwombat
AHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahahaaaaaaaaWAAAAAAAA!?!?!? Why why? Nooo... I'll watch it.

@paco It's the name of their planet. Which is stupid, given how they treated it in the title and graphics.
The one thing missing from the scene where the pink things shoot out the top of the palace is "I Believe It's Magic" by Mick Smiley. #Monsterdon #krull
Gonna go see if the gas station out by the highway with the cabinet of cheesy novelty knives has a glaive BRB
Well, that was a movie that had a lot of really cool stuff and also a lot of really cheesy stuff and overall desperately needed an editor to trim a good 20-30 minutes. Thanks to @Taweret for hosting and see y'all next week!
Yikes!
From Wikipedia:
"...The scene involved Colwyn and his men encountering a corridor where the floor opened underneath them via two set pieces "the size of a small house" that were powered by liquid and broke apart before quickly slamming back together.[6]: 53 Marshall explained that doing the sequence gave him nightmares after it was completed. When shooting of the scene began, Marshall took more time to say his lines than the production crew expected, leading to him not making it from the tunnel in the first take. Only one crew member noticed this and was able to stop the machines controlling the pieces, but Marshall "knew that if the machine didn't stop in five seconds, [he] would be dead..."
I still love this movie. But it's much better in concept and design than it is in execution. Also it's got some scenes that go on for waaaaay too long. Like Rockclimbing.
Still one of the best fantasy movies of my childhood.

@fabio yeah he got juiced by crusher walls when breaking into the fortress spaceship
honestly what this movie says is that james horner only has like six tricks and he used all of 'em here but only five in star trek
