The Thing is one of my favorite horror movies of all time. It has aged so well despite being over 40 years old. Why is that? Let's dive in.

I think we can all agree that we love “The Penguin” but we also HATE THE Penguin
Nice analysis! The Penguin is definitely one of the best imaginings of a comic character ever

Jill is my all time favorite! Stu and Amber would be my next ones!
I thought the Batman was spectacular, saw it in the theater twice. I’ve watched it 4 or 5 times now and there’s always something new or different to appreciate. I’ve loved Batman the detective my whole life and this is the one and only Batman film that captures that angle of his identity in the way it was depicted in the best comics. Sorry you didn’t appreciate it, but we are agreed that Penguin was next level greatness.
I was 7 when i saw this in the theater and i remember leaving in disbelief. Was Han Solo dead? Darth Vader is Lukes father? And when Rerurn of the Jedi came out i had to wait a good 2 weeks to see it and we waited 6 hours in line to see it. Looking back, what was nice, nobody gave spoilers. It was this unwritten rule not to give out much info, other than, the ending was crazy good.
Dooku was not an unarmed prisoner. A Force wielder is never unarmed. I won't even give examples, as the point seems uncontroversial.
I mean i didn't think the Penguin would fucking strangle him to death.
best character in the show and whole DCEU
Nice video
Thank you!
Midichlorians don't demystify the Force - they are tiny lifeforms that are sensitive to the Force. If anything, they make it even more curious.
I'd never seen her before, this performance is mind blowing
I absolutely loved this show and I’ve watched a lot of reviews about it from larger channels. I think your analysis is spot-on and more insightful than most of them, especially regarding inter generational trauma.
Thank you so much!
Qui-gon vs Obi-wan training Anakin = Duel of the Fates.
Agree!! Great content
Thank you ❤
Started off good then turned into super spoiler going on about penguins relationships 😅 just keep it about Colin buddy geez 🤦♂️
Nothing I said there was a spoiler
@ I wouldn’t know I cut it off immediately lol 😂 🤷♂️
@@AceGambino773oh alright fair enough lol
Okay I just finished the season 😅 and now I have finished you video 😅 good video 👍 lol
This Channel is extremely underrated
Thank you so much!
This actress is an absolute revelation in this Batman spinoff show. I most definitely rooted for Sofia in this show
I’ve seen it!!! Great flick!!!
Why didnt you like the batman film?
So I thought it was good, but didn’t love it to the same level most people did. I’ll try to keep it concise because I could go on for a while but I liked a lot of things about it, such as the acting, cinematography, and score. Most of my issues come down to the plot structure, plot armor, and tacked on 4th act.
@@curthagenscan't wait for Sofia to find a Lazarus pitt and bring Vic back! S2 let's go!!
@@dredgen7715I don't think that's finna happen. This is a very realistic Take on Batman just like Christopher Nolans movies they were realistic
@@Thesilantone realistic? He dresses up as a bat and there's a cat and penguin and a clown, they can find a Lazarus pitt.
@@dredgen7715so you haven't seen the Christopher Nolan movies cuz because those films were realistic the same with this, it's a very grounded take The League of shadows were in them but we didn't get a Lazarus pit
I believe Penguin was the standout character in Batman 2022, and this was evident again in his show. By a significant margin.
100%
I feel like that's a slap in the face telling someone that they're the best actor in the industry and saying that the shittiest universe in DC is the best that he's ever done ever in his entire existence.
Huh? First off, I said “one of”, which if you watched the show, that’s undeniably true. Secondly, I don’t like when people just dismiss a property because it’s based off a comic. It’s just a great show, with great writing and performances, comic property or not. I’m convinced you didn’t even watch it.
@@curthagens yeah, okay? First off DC is good, The Batman and its spin offs are not good. Everyone but sparkly-vamp-man is a good actor. I wish they continued the justice League storyline instead of this crappy movie. But I know exactly why they stopped making those movies. Second, I didn't watch it all the way though, because it's shit. And third, respectfully, I don't care if you like my opinion or not, I gave it. Good day to you.
@@shadowraptors1132that tells me everything I need to know lol. You have a clear bias which is alright, we all do. All good
I like that you never really get a motive for the Thing.
Yes it is a very good movie. After your review I need to watch it again!
The only thing they added cgi on is only on the legs and mouth and tentacles of the monsters in the thing 2011
Mannn this was a nice lil Time Machine being able to see you reminisce was just nostalgic I appreciate it truly
Aren't you forgetting that The Thing survived aeons of deep-freeze? Its only chance of getting out of there is by letting itself freeze (or not), and wait for the next incoming rescue mission.
I always thought the implication was that they're both dying there, whether they are the thing or not.
I watched this movie once when I was a kid and I havent watched it since.
I can’t not laugh every time I see this scene ever since I heard that Ewan and Natalie had to do a ton of takes cuz they were just cracking up and couldn’t keep a straight face😂 I just think of that every time even though the scene is very dramatic and heavy😂 1:04:38
Average movie with below average CGI and too few dead dogs 🐕
Said no one ever
So funny to see this pop up in my feed. Had the pleasure of showing a friend this movie for the first time and it was almost as fun as seeing it for the first time myself, especially during the defibrillator scene! This movie takes all of the ingredients for a good and engaging film, and weaves them together with the hand of an expert craftsman. From the writing, action, cinematography, practical effects, and more i can't list off, you get this feeling of authenticity. That the people who worked on the project genuinely cared, and put their love into their slice of production. Such a cool film, thank you for sharing!
Totally agreed on all fronts. Thanks for watching!
A classic
My #1 movie from John Carpenter then Halloween
Same!
You think no one saw you...God DID!
A Masterpiece
I purchased Frailty many years ago in the $5 bin at Walmart. A great purchase as this film was fantastic! All of the leads were top notch! Please give this one a try. You won’t regret it.
I absolutely love these movies (and I grew up with original Star Wars, being born in 88 and my dad being a huge SW fan). That being said, the prequels are my most watched Star Wars. Phantom Menace is my most watched of them all. It’s a comfort film as well as background noise for me when I need it Also, Darth Jar Jar… look it up. It’s genius. As for Anakin being Whiney or whatever, you covered it but also, Luke was nothing but a whiny bitch all through A New Hope Oh, and it is my firm opinion that Qui Gon let himself die so that Obi Wan would take up the training of Anakin. Qui Gon himself said the counsel wouldn’t let him train Anakin, and as we find out: Qui Gon knew how to be a ghost
Any way you rank these is good because all 3 are smash hits!
Now I'm going to binge watch Bill Paxton movies. 2 of my favorites, Boxing Helena and Simple Plan.
One of my favorites also!
SPOILER SERIOUSLY DO NOT READ if you haven't seen the movie First I agree 100% that this is one of the most underrated movies ever. I suspect that one possible reason it didn't get traction is the title, 'Frailty.' Not only is it a word that just loosely applies to what the story is about (I guess), but it's also not a very memorable word. I have literally struggled to remember it numerous times when I wanted to recommend it to someone, and mind you I LOVE it and have seen it at least 4 or 5 times. But funnily enough, the ending kind of irritated me the first time. - By the time it got to the end, I was PLENTY horrified enough by the idea of children being stuck with only one living parent, who seemed very loving and steady but then one day snapped and began putting them through the terror of his madness. And I found it extra scary (and believable) that the younger son could go along with it, first as sheer coping mechanism, and then as full-on 'folie a deux' insanity with his dad. So when it was revealed that the dad's vision and mission was REAL, I dunno, it just struck me as hokey, almost Christian propaganda-y. But it was so well-made overall that I was compelled to watch it again, I think less than a year later, and the ending grew on me.
now watch Christine (1983)
cool flick rip paxton
I ve always loved this movie!
Wasn't really blown away by it but maybe I'll have another look after reading the comment section. For me it was a solid horror thriller but nothing too special. Maybe I missed something 🤷♂️
Great film...I had to watch it twice to see what I missed by the time you saw the ending...
Thank you for not giving it away and i will now watch this movie
I wanted to watch this when it came out but could not find a theater. It took me years to track it down and watch it after that. Well worth it.
