Monsterdon is a weekly event on the fediverse, hosted by @Taweret@timeloop.cafe, where people watch a monster movie together by posting to the #monsterdon Hashtag.

And this Sunday (Western Hemisphere, e.g. 8PM CT) (or Monday 1am UTC), the movie will be Forbidden Planet(1956)
By coincidence, I only recently watched it for the first time
Where to watch the film

- https://tubitv.com/search/forbidden%20planet (in some countries, not all)
- https://miru.miyaku.media/ (a linear stream synchronized for all viewers, go there near start time and find Forbidden Planet. It didn't work for me the last time I tried it, got an error like "Media in an unsupported format or server down", so have a backup plan.) More

I think you can go along with the live blogging via Lemmy if posts include the hashtag #monsterdon, but probably better to use Mastodon.
