Lars survived long enough to hunt down the thing that killed everyone at his base only to be killed by the people he's currently trying to save.
Lammeune Romalia I agree. His friends been kill, and good thing he know that's not the Dog and try to kill
Well, he was out most the movie lmao
To be fair, without this edit and watching the opening of the 1982 Thing, you see exactly the point of view of the crew at Outpost 31. They had no idea what was happening and Lars was shooting a gun. What other option did they have or what else were they suppose to think?
@jamiebellwolf he just doesn't speak English, in the 2011 movie he always needs the others guys to translate for him. Why don't the Americans speak some Norweigan?
@jamiebellwolf it would be ideal to learn at least basic English/Chinese/etc, but some people find it really hard to accomplish even that. I guess that having the other guys translate for him was enough because he didn't expect to run into any trouble at the time. That and the 82 version needed the Americans to be unawares of the copydog from hell.
It's so refreshing to see the other dude complying without stalling and asking "why" in a horror movie
@Conal Wheeldon [Student] well put buddy
Well he does have a gun in his face.
I always thought stupid people in horror movies was just to allow the silly plots to exist, but then the pandemic hit and... well... here we are.
Back then, character reactions made sense and felt natural (for the most part)
@Conal Wheeldon [Student] Really? You wouldn’t first think your buddy was maybe...off his rocker?
I love how the prequel flows perfectly into the 1982 movie. It's brilliant
JigsawJay007 it's a shame the movie got such shit for it's 1 poor choice at the end (the shitty ending to the 2011 movie, where they use CGI instead of practical effects like every other scene)
they did it practical, but the idiot studio forced the change to CG on them.
Did the Dog-Thing cross the mountain range between the two outposts?
Heed the Seen must have been a pass
cirian75 absolutely, studios directives screw up films 9 times out of 10. I’d say just let the directors do their thing, but then someone like Rian Johnson comes along to remind me the money men need to protect their investment, too.
I like how in the 2011 scene the camera is stationed in a way to make it feel like you are watching an 80s film
I do wonder why that style of camera work is rare to see nowadays, as opposed to flashy movements and cuts?
@sudokuacrobatics practical effects and choreography were thrown away for cgi that costs way cheaper to use. Most older style movies actually have a huge budget compared to blockbusters today that only use cgi like marvel. With cgi there's unrealistic camera movement and points of views that don't work in reality.
Nah budgets are way higher now whether it’s a good ar bad thing
@@mmmmongooseiii384 do you even know what the concept of inflation is
I feel sorry for the pilot. He never knew what the hell was going on in all the confusion.
and from what i see, it was lars that drops the grenade, then he runs off while the pilot scrambles and gets blown up lmao
yet he was determined to kill that dog because his good ol fella Lars told him that this is no dog :)
The pilot was about to murder all those guys just to get the dog. Wtf did Lars say to him?
Seriously man... he just landed in an unfamiliar situation with a horrific creature's corpse outside the ransacked Norwegian base, Lars (I assume a close friend) emerges screaming and pointing a gun at him, doesn't explain anything, then desperately screams at you to start the helicopter and chase a dog while he shoots wildly... Then when you land, he grabs a grenade and drops it in a total panic, and you die trying to save the helicopter... Seriously, that pilot's last thought was probably something along the lines of "what the fucking hell is going on?"
Exploring Jenkins What did Lars say to the Americans you mean? (The guy holding the machine gun, the pilot is the one who blew up with the grenade.) But anywhere, there is actually a really accurate Norwegian translation of what Lars was screaming at 5:24 in the video. He said ""Se til helvete og kom dere vekk. Det er ikke en bikkje, det er en slags ting! Det imiterer en bikkje, det er ikke virkelig! Kom dere vekk, idioter!" This is translated to: "Get the hell outta there. That's not a dog, it's some sort of thing! It's imitating a dog, it isn't real! Get away, you idiots!"
Poor Lars If only the Americans knew what he went through...
Yeah, he survived all that sh*t only for some stupid cowboys to gun him down as he was trying to SAVE them. Tough luck.
Well to be fair he could've tried solving this calmly I mean what would you do if some crazy guy started shooting everywhere trying to kill the neighbours' cat in your lawn?
KingCamembert Calmly? With the language barrier and what he has been through, the horror and insanity, there was no other way Lars could've done it calmly. It was either do or die... Unfortunately, with that one fatal gun shot from Garry, it was all damn to Hell.
odiemodie1 To be fair yeah.
KingCamembert I apologize for being forward, I do agree a more civil approach would've sufficed, but at that point of the situation, all civil solutions went out the window. The only morbid good thing out of this is, Garry helped Lars by putting him out of his misery, thus ending his insane paranoia suffering, sparing him of more of the horror of what is to come.
Actually nice cut with the ice drop after the last gun shot.
Right?
...thats the whole point
5:24 Lars - Get the hell away! That's not a dog, it's some sort of thing! It's imitating a dog, it isn't real! GET AWAY YOU IDIOTS!!
Is it really norwegian? Always thought it was some norwegian mixed with bullshit :p
Lau Ofcoarse its norwegen you dumbass! you should use rosetta stone!
omg THANK YOU
Lars really didn't mean to shoot that guy in the leg but I never seen the 1982 and the 2011 film does Matias speak English?
@@immunecookie0179 Matias ? The pilot ? He get off the norwegian base for like 5 days and when he comes back everything is fucked up, he didn't have any idea wtf was going on
Poor Matias (first dead Norwegian). He never even knew what was going on and died before he could know
he was spared of the fear of being assimilated.
Honestly he probably had it the best out of anyone in the 2 movies he never saw the thing and died by a grenade instead of being assimilated.
I'd guess Lars could explain it to him in like two or three sentences.
Maybe during the trip Lars told him everything
@@ondrejurban2634 How do you explain something like the thing creature in two or three sentences? It is easy for us moviegoers to understand, as we have seen the movie (maybe countless times) but on a chopper ride, chasing a dog? ;)
I think that the directors of the '11 movie did this about as well as they could. Even brought in Ennio Morricones musical score from the '82 release to close out the last scenes. For fans of the Carpenter movie, that must have been a very cool touch.
The way the 2011 scene is filtered to the original makes it spot on in its transition
I saw the 2011 release in theaters. I felt like it did a good job of making everything fit, even if somethings felt a little forced (for example, leaving the ax in the wall). The movie ended and everyone got up and started walking out, then we heard the first few notes of the Morricone score and everyone froze. We were then treated to coda scene which finally connected the 2 films seamlessly.
IT all makes sense now, and they just shot the only man who knew the truth and they shot him.
Americans. Gotta show them who is the real gunner. Bang! Bang! Bang! Yeah! 'Murica!! Guns are their religion! Bang!
@@rumuelnathanael8043 You probably have never been to the states then.
@Erik Lerström He shot one of them IN THE LEG!
@@dubuyajay9964 accidentally, might i add! he was aiming for the dog. yes, he's a shit aim, but that was his goal - now, if only he could've said that in English..
@@dubuyajay9964 Trust meone Norwegian can shoot another in the leg and not end up dead afterwards.. Only Americans kill that easy
All that carnage to come; hidden by a language barrier.🥶
I don't think they would have believed him anyways even if he spoke English.
Eh, it didn't help in the 2011 film either. All but Lars (the shooter) spoke enough English to communicate with the non-Norweigians, and things still got fucked.
@@jonseon5952 Well 1. The dog is the owned by his outpost and he can do with it whatever he wants.
2. Once they saw paranormal/extraterrestrial evidence at the Norweigian outpost that would be inexplainable by a crazy Norweigian individual mass murdering his fellow outpost members with a rifle, they would have very much so believed him.
Suffice it to say there are indeed many ways in which 'The Thing' would have been stopped or at the very least majorly hindered if there were no language barrier here. The US outpost would have lost a lot less people.
I’m a brazillian in japan and I gotta say a lot of times japanese people often don’t trust me enough to believe me because I’m brazillian or I just can’t fucking tell them because I don’t speak Japanese enough
@@adamanderson3042 1) They didn’t shoot Lars because he was shooting at the dog. He was shot for shooting Bennings and continuing to shoot with other innocents around. 2) They flew out to the Norwegian camp much later than the incident in question and saw absolutely nothing upon initial investigation that would alter their perception that Lars was a psycho. In fact, the evidence, as they could read it, initially solidified the thinking they were “Crazy Swedes”.
I think its very unfair how the Prequel is so much trashed by the fans of the original movie, the producers did an outstanding job recreating precisely every detail of the norwegian camp, they even put on special attention on the axe scene, the guy who commits suicide, the burnt remains of the two-faced thing, everything is so well done! And this final scene perfectly merging with the original movie from 1982! Amazing! I know people bitch about the overuse of CGI and i agree with that but it is overall an exceptional movie!
I’m a fan of the original movie and I will say to credit where credit is due, at least it tried to expand on the lore of The Thing. Considering what might have happened in the Norwegian base from the 1982 movie, this movie for the most part made sense to why that place ended up the way it did. There’s so much potential in expanding the movie universe of The Thing. One thing I like to speculate on is how would Kate (Elizabeth Winstead’s character) interact with R.J. MacReady (Kurt Russell’s character).
The prequel was good, but the CGI ruined what made The original Thing great in the first place, the practical effects.
@@hellofaname i disagree with that. i think it was the *special* effects that made the thing great. the CG in the prequel could have worked, but it just wasn't good enough.
i think it would have been almost poetic for a movie known for its incredible practical effects to be followed by a movie known for its incredible CG effects. maybe if that was their plan from the start, they could have pulled it off. instead, thanks to executive meddling, we got the worst outcome possible: rushed CGI.
@@sabotabo7476 thats what I said dude.
The movie itself wasn't bad but yeah the use of CGI instead of practical effects was a bad choice.
6:19 I've always loved the look on Garry's face right there. It's the type of face that says, "Dear God, what have I done?" The most realistic reaction someone would give after shooting a man dead.
"I. . . Just did that. . ."
I mean, the guy was in their base firing with no explanation and hit one of their team members. No reason to feel bad about shooting him
'Hell of a thing killing a man. You take away everything hes got and everything hes ever gonna have... '
@@thesynergy2 then walking past every person following the dog. There was an explanation, it was in Norwegian. You are a bigger moron then Gary who is the direct cause for the entire team except two including himself by not realizing Lars was after the dog even after watching Lars walk past the group and following the dog.
@@ftniceberg874 Gary is kind of a douche yeah
The merging of these two is brilliant masterpiece.
Maybe someday in the near future someone WILL have the vision to splice these two films together (It could work through a series of "flashbacks")..., provided the Norwegian lived long enough after being shot by Garry to tell his tale..., er I mean dog's-tail!
It all makes sense now.
And it only took 29 years for an answer.
NICTATOR the answer was given to you in 82
Wtf are you talking about? Did you not figure it out after seeing the original?
*🎶because it all make sense now🎶*
awesome dude I actually just searched on youtube to see if anybody did this. realizing that the 2011 movie was actually a prequel during its last clips was such a pleasant surprise
Really part (1982) at the end of the story, and I love actually part 1982
beatthecrowd001 It took you until the ending clips to realize lol? The entire movie painstakingly shows how everything at the base ended up where it did in the original the fire axe, the split face thing the ice tub, the guy who cuts his wrist.
beatthecrowd001 the 1950’s the thing is a prequel to the prequel the thing then transitions into the things intro..
This is how you make a prequel. Take some tips, Ridley.
Agree!
Alien Covenant should have ended this way!
Otavio Santana Alien conventant should of ended with Ripley and the marines landed on the colony.
RckerMom87 exactly
The prequel to the THING was HORRIBLE
Although the 2011 version of The Thing is light years inferior to The 80'S version, it's a pretty decent prequel, giving a back story to the Norwegians who first encountered the thing. One gripe I have with the 2011 version is why do the Norwegians need to have an American scientist? They should've made the entire cast Norwegians, not that I have anything against Mary Elizabeth Winstead. At least they tried to tie both movies which is more than what Ridley Scott made with the GODAWFUL Prometheus.
Ariel Contreras Obviously they needed an American so the rest of the cast had an excuse to speak English as well.
0r made all of them Norwegians and let them still speak english.
Ever see a movie about the roman empire? Do they always speak latin in them?
The 2003 video game rocked and was very story driven, probably 40 minutes of cut scenes and in-game video.
Because it’s an American movie and Americans want one of their own to relate too and not have to read their way through a movie with non-english subtitles
Don't know why so much hate for the 2011 prequel. The alien changed in front of the humans to openly assimilate its victims because it had no prior experience with them. In the course of the prequel movie and nearly being destroyed, it learnt the intelligence of the humans and so in the 1982 sequel, it turned to stealth and secrecy to assimilate its victims. Watch the 2011 prequel and later the 1982 sequel, everything falls into place. Love both movies.
If only the crappy CGI in The Thing (2011) didn't ruin the movie, it would be remembered better. I appreciate what the director was trying to do.
They actually made practical effect for the movie, but it was all either replaced or covered with CGI.
I've seen a lot of the props and original shots, so much better than what they replaced it with.
@@nihluxler8823 I know and that makes it twice as painful.
I've read that team's efforts to employ practical effects were vetoed because the studio felt it would seem too old school, much like in the 80s. Judging by what little holdover is available online - I guess it would make the movie much better, hot damn.
#releasethepracticalcut
When i saw the prequel first, i didn't know anything about the 1982 thing. When i saw that dog running away, i was happy that it survived but when Lars said "That's no dog" my heart broke when it's actually the thing.
Before the prequel came out I had always assumed that the dudes in the helicopter had just caught up to the thing as it was approaching the American base and not following it for the entire 80 km run. A helicopter is faster than a husky even if it's an alien in disguise.
Shooting a moving target as small as a dog from a moving helicopter thats about 300 feet up in the air. Yeah not gonna happen.
80 km? I always thought it was much further because Blair said "No dog could make it a thousand miles in the snow." Or was a referencing something else?
It wouldn’t have made a difference anyway. Shooting the thing doesn’t really effect it other than temporarily stunning it.
which is why Lars grabbed grenades to finish it off
When the heli pilot unmasked himself i thought it was Adam Sandler xD
Same here
I thought I was the only one
Oh that scared me I thought this comment was me from two years ago😂 fellow member
So did I !!
He kinda looks like that dude from American Pie as well 🤣
When I went to see the Prequel in theaters I thought this film was great for what it was, the attention to detail at the end was INSANE, but this ending scene sent chills down my spine, it was done so damn well.
Lars just out here trying to save all earthly life.
Love the transition from Lars shooting to MacReady and the echo over was awesome!
That prequel had so much respect to its source material and would have been such a cool movie if not only the executives that pulled the plug out of the practical effects and spaceship's pilot scene. Such a waste and I feel bad for the director who went for directing commercials afterwards
It's a real shame the studios fucked it up. The director was a big fan of the 82 Thing and did his best to do it justice in spite of the studio's interference.
Whoever edited this did a phenomenal job. I almost wish there was a version where both were edited together. However, Carpenter’s version is more superior.
The ending looks like carpenter’s style I like it
It´s not only the obvious fact that is a perfect continuation between the ending and the beggining of the two movies, they also adjusted the filming methodology. The shots become much more still and open than the rest of the movie, which is more in accord with 70s and 80s filming. What a great detail. You just can´t put into words how the prequel deserved so much more recognition.
The last scene (and the ax scene) made the 2011 movie for me.
Thanks for all the comments and views on this little video boys and girls.
My personal favourite one I've worked on so far on my channel.
Stu677 fucking seamless bro ... excellent...
This edit seems seamless with the mountain range and thermite blast from the 1982 intro cut out.
2:33 = Learn Hollywood! Now that's a nice transition cut
oh f i wanted Lars to live
ThatCheeseGuy Garry had other plans
I felt the same way but it’s canon that he dies.
Gary said nope. It's us to shine now. Gtfo.
He was so badass in the 2011 movie
@@plaguedoctorjamespainshe6009 yeh Garry culd have shot em in the legg or arm but his itchy trigger finger got him killed. Im Just thinking an what if scenario if he aculy did help them understand about it
Fucking well done man... This was absolutely perfect! Especially with the echo you added to the last gunshot at 2:34 which makes the intro of the 1982 version blend in flawlessly. You have a great sense of how to effectively edit two completely different films together to seem almost totally comprehensive. You could literally just have the 1982 version of The Thing continue after the 2011 intro, and nobody who wasn't already familiar with John Carpenter's version would just assume it was a long fucking movie, where the special effects suddenly improved 10 fold at the 2 hour mark! Lmfao
"START DE HELICOOPTAR NOOOWW!!"
THIS WHOLE CUT should have been the post credit scene. nice job man
The John Carpenter 1982 version haunted my nightmares from 10 years of age to 18 years of age. I believe I should not have watched it. But when a ten year old is told by their parents that he can not watch a certain movie, a ten year old finds a certain way. Even today, when there is a very heavy snowstorm where I live and only my vehicle can make it through, I hear that opening music in my head.
Wow thats intense mine was Halloween saw it on UK tv 82 really horrid, i was 14.
@@VIP-rp3oq It so effected me that today I have a wolf/husky hybrid very similar to the one in the beginning.
Tbh it's easy to make fun of Lars for being such a bad shot and dropping the grenade, but he's probably been up for days in the freezing cold trying to survive against the Thing. The dude is probably only staying awake by pure adrenaline and his fingers are probably numb, I'm not surprised he can't aim or throw well at all.
I agree. After witnessing the Thing kill off his whole crew and imitate them he probably is out of his mind at this point. The Americans are not aware of what amount of danger has come in the form of this fluffy furry four legged Husky but Lars knows that Husky is the creature he has had to deal with up until he gets gunned down for trying to save the Americans unbeknownst to them. That’s what I really like about this movie because the language barrier between Lars and the Americans is part of the danger and in a sense plays into the Thing favor. That fact and also because he is imitating this beautiful defenseless Husky being shot at by a madman Clark the dog lover feels the need to protect him and give him food and shelter.
As i once told my friend who's a helicopter pilot "If i ever come to you shooting at a dog, and then tell you to start the helicopter to chase after it, its probably for a good goddamn reason"
I loved Lars so much. Watched both movies with my friends and we were rooting so hard for Lars the entire 2011 movie. We were devastated when he died..
Wait a minute you watched the 2011 version before the OG film
I love that it blended all together! Great job!
I just wish they hadn’t gone all CGI in the sequel. That’s what hurt the prequel. The creature looked cartoonish half the time not using practical effects.
Blame the Studio, look it up.
The practical effects looked AMAZING! It was a slap in the face to the artists not to use them on account they looked "unmodern". Such a waste of talent and effort.
The SEQUEL is the 1982 film. The prequel was in 2011... they didn't "go all CGI" in the sequel because they didn't have that in 1982.
@@SStupendous yes, the sequel is a prequel, well aware of that, still doesn’t change fact they wasted actually good practical effects because the studio forced the director to CGI it ip
@@neildennis7294 I agree. If they didn't go over everything in CGI - like they SAID they wouldn't - it would have been much better
This is creepy, I watched the thing last night and didn't search a single video about it on UA-cam, and I got this in my recommendations
Google knows.
yeah nothing creepy about it apart from Google harvesting all your user data, preferences, history, conversations, calls and texts without your express knowledge in order to recommend more stuff to you to watch
in fact they're reading this rn and chuckling
fuck you google
WOW ! ! ! F'ing great idea. If the prequel would have been used in this flashback style and remained true to Carpenter's original, F'ing WOW ! ! !
Smooth transition between the two movies. Excellent job
Man what a perfect transition.. I love it!
These two movies were honestly made so well, and when they made the "prequel" they paid really close attention to the details, in such a way that mixed with your editing skills, this is a seamless transition! Great job, and great movies!
But they didn't bother to pay attention to the fact that the UFO didn't break the ice in the original and it was blown up by the Norwegians.
@@makaron9363 not nessesarily... you see a video in the 80s version of *one* detonation, BUT this could have been for the tunnels towards the UFO.
The UFO was exposed in the newer version by the heat of the engine - which makes even more sense than blowing the ice off of it.
you would need weeks or rather months to make it completely ice-free (heavy mashinery included) and also risk damaning it with the explosives.
So you can say the guys in the 80s version thought the norwegians blow off the ice, but were interpreting wrong and it was just for the tunnel towards it.
5:16 I know I shouldn’t be laughing but the guy really knew how to fly.
Got to love how RJ didn't drop the bottle the ENTIRE time, even after running to the guy who was shot, didn't drop it. :-D
In the 1982 The Thing beginning, helicopter pilot R.J. MacReady is seen playing a Chess computer called, "Chess Wizard." The same Chess Wizard computer may be seen in the motion picture Harbinger Down in the cargo hold of the ship, "Harbinger." The motion picture, "Harbinger Down," has a lot of inspiration from John Carpenter's evil creation. Perhaps the Chess Wizard computer in the cargo hold of the Harbinger was a little indication suggesting that, "Yes, The Thing was an inspiration for this movie. We even used original style practical effects."
The sequel wasn’t a patch on the original because of the script but in terms of paying homage to the original set design,it was a very close second to Dr sleep.
This is a thing of beauty. The only way to make it better would be to remove the subtitles in the beginning part to preserve the mystery of the original. Aside from that it slots seamlessly into the original film.
Haven't seen either movie yet, so the fact that I can't tell where one begins and the other ends is a testiment to the quality of the editing.
Poor lars... trying to save some lives...
Lars actually did everyone a favor by having the pilot get blown up. That means less people that knows the way back to civilization to assimilate.
Awesome. Just found this clip. Being a fan of The Thing I'm great full for this. Thank you.
Nice editing.
Imagine if Lars and Macready working together
They screwed up the “L0KK” logo’s “arrow”symbol is not in unison with the The Thing 1982 helicopter’s version where in 1982-the arrow in the font’s “0” points toward the letter L-instead in the The Thing’s 2011 version the “arrow” in “0” points toward the letter K which is a big screw-up not to mention even the fonts of the designated helicopter’s name “L0KK” doesn’t match up but other than that,I love this prequel.
I wish the end of the prequel wasn't interrupted with the beginning of the credits sequence and left like this, because it really does fuse seamlessly into it.
Norwegians who saw the original movie had the whole movie spoiled on them in a few seconds when Lars was yelling at and warning the Americans in Norwegian LMAO.
My uncle who was stationed in Norway always said that most people there speak better English than 90% of Americans, so I always thought it was odd that the Norwegian from the first movie couldn’t speak English. It was cool that they specifically addressed that in this movie
At the very end, the guy pets 'the thing' dog, he's later confirmed to not be infected post-mortem.
Maybe for the briefest of moments, the dog imitation was so perfect, that the creatures cells believed themselves to actually be dog?
Otherwise he'd have been the first and easiest infection right?
so is prequel huh
yup, it was a prequel. Lars and Matias are the only characters who are in both films.
I give the 2011 movie shit. but the nearly seamless segway into the 1982 original still is a thing of beauty.
Brilliant editing. Helps to bridge the two movies.
1:51 who's that? in the background, under the heli tail there's someone
Part 3 baby
Well there was a movement...indeed
So this is what Joe Biden was talking about when he said, ‘’All men and women are created equal, by .. you know....the ...the thing’’.
That episode with helicopter is best part of The Thing 2011.
lol someone walking behind the helicopter at 1:51
I have watched different horror movies but in my opinion the thing is the best of all the time.
That transition was cleaner than my browser history.
Very smooth
That Lars dude is the last person to shoot a gun or throw a grenade. It is absurdly comedic for a horror movie.
Nice job cutting them together.
Just finished watching the thing 2011 and wondered if someone did this! Thanks! Really neat
The best thing about the prequel. Also, it seems that they could not find a similar Husky hahaha
It's because the original was half wolf
I like how, even if you don't speak Norwegian, if you listen to what Lars says when he's talking to the Americans, you can hear him say "thing" in Norwegian.
This was great St677.
Imagine if the 2011 version wasnt a dumb monster flick with bad cgi effects.
"Yo, dawg! I heard you like Things! So, I put a base in your base so you can be assimilated into body horror while you're being assimilated into body horror!"
I love watching these two movies back to back +u+)
to be honest this film is nowhere near as good as the original movie, the best scene for me is where is connects to the john carpenter version, but the prequel is basically the same film but in the norewegian camp instead.
@Soviet ツ hi soviet, i disagree because, they spend a part of the first movie going to the norge camp and looking at film taken of the ufo buried in the ice and they work out pretty quickly what happened but they dont know what they are dealing with when they bring the remains back to the american camp.
That editing you did there, that's PERFECTION.
Never realized that there not being another person in the helicopter doesnt make sense until there actually was another
Hey numbskulls, you're in a helicopter, not an airplane. Hover in front of the thing and let it have it.
And for the record, this would've made a great opening scene. Would definitely have the viewers going "geez, what the hell happened? And what's with the dog?"
sonrouge Lars wasn't in his right mind
These guys arent military...
I love the grande detail .
The grande that the lady took is missing in the box in the 82 movie, master conección 👌
It's amazing how similar Norwegian is to Dutch.
I can almost understand every word.
Lars: “That’s no dog!”
*Lars was not the imposter*
of course not... if he was he would have "transformed" the pilot immediatly.
if he just shot the pilot, he may have lacked skill to fly the chopper towards the mainland/home (to infect people there)
They way they made it it’s brilliant!
Don't know why so much hate for the 2011 prequel. The alien changed in front of the humans to openly assimilate its victims because it had no prior experience with them.

Watch the 2011 prequel and later the 1982 sequel, everything falls into place. Love both movies.
cause it was just a crap film made by someone who lacks real horror sense... where was the tension, the paranoia, the bickering back and forth, the raging fights with one another... the character development, the use of cool looking special effects
maybe you don't mind crap writing, most do
Both were great movies……
I'm glad you corrected the color of the chopper 👍
Its amazing how both movies work perfectly together!
Now the fact that the Norwegian guy spills the plot in his language makes sense.
''That's no dog!''
It's funny seeing how the dog is acting after everything is over. No dog just sits there waiting for strangers to just come comfort it. It's almost like it's assessing the threat and noticing that it is over
The thing 2011 alien looks nothing like The thing 1982. Awful cgi alien *sighs*
Well, the thing has no "Definite" form
They actually made all but prosthetics for the movie and didn't want anything to do with cgi but studio changed it at the last second without a lot of people knowing about it
"Faen er ikke mulig" -"Fuck. It's not possible."
