The Thing ('82) had some of the best practical effects to ever grace the screen.

Really, that time period in general had all the top contenders. Right before studios could just hit the easy button with CGI and practical effects were at their pinnacle.

This has potential if the country still has theaters let alone power in a few months….my expectations are set to “entry level” for this event but I'll watch if it comes about.

I prefer the one with Marshall Dillon as the monster.

I think both are on solid footing in their own way.

Only theater left around here is that "Rave' thing; not even sure it's a movie theater, actually, since I've haven't been to it or any other since Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven came out. I thing I saw Bram Stoker's Dracula back then, too. Over priced crappy seats, never went back.

It needs to be a sequel with Child's and MacReady's bodies being flown back to civilization and one or the other, changing to the thing and wreaking havoc with a city's population.

Sequel is cool.

Stop remaking my favorite movies though.

I believe that's what it's gonna be about....Carpenter, after all these years has never really put to rest the Childs and MacReady mystery.

I suspect it will take place on the McMurdo Station.....You know the place Windows was trying to contact.

I hope so, I love the Arctic aspect of the whole thing.

In an interview with John Carpenter, he was asked whether Child's or MacReady was infected, and he answered that, "if you pay close very close attention when watching the movie, you will have the answer."

Which is really no answer at all.

You sound like a bitter and broke old person who just discovered what a rave is after 35 years.

You sound like some lonely faggot desperate for male attention.

Didn't the Thing first come out in the 1950s?
