It's JOHNNY BIGHEAD! #Monsterdon

And of course the natives are incredibly intelligent and well-spoken and the Englishman is shouting and monosyllabic. #Monsterdon

"Tell you of war? Hold up, let me get the conman in here..." #Monsterdon

"Cabot, come on, it's time to show them English violence!" #Monsterdon

Lets be real here, the queen alien's deductions are 100% on the mark here and preventing Victorian Englishmen from returning to Earth with the knowledge of a civilization they could overrun and devour was ABSOLUTELY THE CORRECT THING TO DO. #Monsterdon

"Well I was going to refuse to help because you destroyed all hope of communicating with an alien race and fucked First Contact beyond all reason, but since you asked nicely, sure, I'll help." #Monsterdon

COME ON SELENITES, KILL THE IMPERIALS! #Monsterdon

And the virus is expelled. #Monsterdon

The really tragic thing is that WASN'T the longest flashback in #Monsterdon history.

Yeah, those Ken dolls better get out of there fast. #Monsterdon

#Monsterdon

"And so one asshole Victorian expedition murdered an entire uncontacted civilization. We now close our film on the most violent member of the expedition, giggling as he watches the last remains of the lost civilization he helped exterminate crumble into dust. Hip hip hooray!"
