Wouldn't it be nice if the Thing assimilated Earth. Wouldn't it be nice know that every stupid faggot that ever lived and gave you grief would suffer a horrible end, likely from their own family trying to assimilate them.
They would scream in pure terror as the Thing, looking like their own family, would trap them, and then violently morph its body into theirs. The worst possible way to die and I wish that upon humanity. fuck the coronavirus, give us the THING.
I want a scene where the last human survivor talk with the thing in the form of a human and tell him : " I know I'm gonna die but before you kill me please tell me more about your origins, purpose, how's life in your planet, etc.."
I really wonder if the thing is sentient enough to communicate in this way
Ryan Kelly
doubt it would even speak to you. likely only uses intelligence, personality, creativity on puppet strings for the sole purpose of getting what it wants.

>I really wonder if the thing is sentient enough to communicate in this way uh huh, like you don't know, "user"
There was actually a short story based on the thing, where we saw what it was thinking and what it thought.
You can read it here clarkesworldmagazine.com/watts_01_1 But TLDR: >"Thing" is a space explorer, some kind of hive mind that goes around spreading communion >The cold and the people from the first movie confuse it, makes it wonder why they aren't accepting his gift. >Eventually thing thinks its fight or die, and the events of the movie unfolds. >The big reveal at the end is The Thing realizes that humans not only don't want to merge with him, They physically can't shapeshift. The idea of spending all eternity without communion shocks the thing to the core, and determines to sneak back to civilization to spread his gift.
you know what, a world of fucking things would probably be nicer than the cockroaches that currently infest it now. it would probably be a more peaceful world.
Thing, you're gonna kill the ENTIRE human race? Not just one or two? That's great. Real nice work, ya frickin asshole

The Thing was released in 1982 to very negative reviews. It was described as "instant junk", "a wretched excess", and proposed as the most-hated film of all time by film magazine Cinefantastique. Reviews both praised the special effects achievements and criticized their visual repulsiveness, while others focused on poor characterization. The film earned $19.6 million during its theatrical run. Many reasons have been cited for its failure to impress audiences: competition from films such as E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, which offered an optimistic take on alien visitation; a summer that had been filled with successful science fiction and fantasy films; and an audience, living through a recession, diametrically opposed to The Thing's nihilistic tone.
The film found an audience when released on home video and television. In the years since, it has been reappraised as one of the best science fiction and horror films ever made, and has gained a cult following.

Goddamnit user, look at my singles! You know I’m not the Thing!

Unironically a thing movie about it reaching civilization could be kino. Make it take place in LA or New York and it has to have been made in the 80s to keep that soul aspect. Keep carpenter, keep the practical effects, and it'd probably be a pretty okay sequel. That ship has sailed unfortunately

I'd prefer the sun would turn green and we all melt.

I would agree except replace humanity with redditors, discordfags, and retardera. and moderators.
