Also right near the end of the movie, a woman in our packed theatre screamed SHUT UP at someone, and not two minutes later the guy I was sitting next seemed emboldened, and turned around and loudly hissed SHUT UP at the chatty idiots behind us while his two sons looked mortified.

Sounds like your audience was on a...

yelling shut the fuck up at people in the theater is the greatest of feelings

What is that dude saying in the star wars video? I played it like 50 times and still can't figure it out

"turn off the flash you fucking moron" ?

the thing 1982 7.5/10 for all the great stuff in this movie, I found a lot of things annoying on my latest viewing. I'm sure HD is mostly to blame. but it doesn't seem to make that much sense, the pacing is weird, the beloved blood test scene has never sat well with me and more than ever I found myself obsessing over why people in movies always produce blood by cutting the tip of the fucking thumb open - is this because the effect is easier than cutting some other part of that body that wouldn't drive you nuts to have hurting & injured for the next week? it's a white knuckle survival situation and these guys aren't even going to be able to use a key without wincing. that article about the eye-light is complete horseshit, too.

I had to look in the comments so I'm with you

it's flash

I wish I could've seen the flash that made the guy so mad

One of the best movies ever, easily John Carpenter's best. The ending and the soundtrack alone



Ferocious and smart

i will forever love The Thing but the blood test scene irks me for one reason as they seem to be using the same scalpel on everyone, wouldn't that infect everyone with microscopic bits of the alien? Also I'm sure it's been mentioned but in the Dog attack you can see one of the puppeteers behind the creature right before it splits open and the giant mouth mutation pushes out before it gets torched. Also I think they should have left the rest of the stop motion monster shots from the last attack scene in the movie, not just the tentacles grabbing the dynamite.

I would never rate the movie less than 9 though.

if you want talk about a movie about a creature, alien is probably better. But if you want something ostensibly about creatures, with much larger philosophical import… The thing. I consider it a masterpiece, shoulder to shoulder with Bresson

People try to make The Thing about more than what it is. Being part of "the apocalypse trilogy" And it is a study of paranoia but I think trying to attach some deeper meaning to it is missing the point. The simplicity of it is what makes it great, it just is. Leave it be.

it meant that much to me; I only saw for the first time pretty recently… Let me like what I want to like. It hit me at the right time, I don't need anyone's permission for that. That is why my favorite movie is still Raiders of the lost Ark. I damn sure didn't read any philosophical examinations; just think about poison eating human identity without quite knowing it. The thing is a top 10 movie

I probably means more to me and has more of that simplistic yet deep magic because I saw it when I was like 6 or 7.

there are handful of good filmmakers in the horror genre, but I don't think there is anyone who can bring that real stuff back. The stuff where you feel like something is haunting you. The world sucks now, and probably always did, but the last authentic horror movie was eyes wide shut

Did you get my PM Chad

when someone doesn't write you back, it's confirmation that they have gotten a PM from you

no I seriously just saw it and responded <3

i went and saw rampage because riley o gave it a 7

i liked seeing mutant creatures destroy chicago. i also got a few good chuckles from the rock doing sign language and characters reading exposition off ipads. 7/10

I think I’ve finally realized that it’s impossible to make a giant monster destroying the city movie that’s any good outside of when the giant monster is destroying the city

Prove me wrong

delayed disaster is a shittily-explored genre. There's one reason alone that Yellowstone documentaries about the volcano are delegated to one-hour specials. The idea that something beyond any species' ability to contain is roiling and writhing beneath us… It's just too much to take. Utterly God-defying and treacherous

"it's got the intersecting plot lines of magnolia with all the laffs of boogie nights!"

those russo fucks couldn't direct their way out of a paper bag

andre the giant - 9/10

The Little Hours - 8.5

hilarious and gave me a couple of boners
