Another remake of: The Thing

[zinfamous]

Arctic has no land, just a giant floating ice cap.

Antarctic actually has land.

who cares, though?

There is no land at the North Pole.

There is certainly land in the Arctic, however. Canada, US, and USSR all have land in the Arctic.

The movie is clearly referring to the poles. Don't be obtuse, Zin.

I dunno what the hell's in there, but it's weird and pissed off, whatever it is.

That's my fave.

I'm referring to your comment, about the arctic. It's a common misconception, especially among those who like to point out that there is no land at the north pole. Then commonly confuse that with the entire arctic.

does this take place in the Arctic? I remember the Carpenter version being set in the Antarctic?

There is no land at the north pole.

I SO WENT THERE

I'd still hit it. At least the parts I could catch.

Nice. Looks like they are striving to be true to the Carpenters Thing (which was almost completely different from the original The Thing from Another Planet)
