Part of the magic about this ending is that you just don't really know who was infected at the end. Fantastic movie, one of my favourite movies of all time

Dude, not all these guys are supposed to be scientists. Like there's also a helicopter pilot, another one's a cook, another guy is a radio man, a security guy, a guy who tends to the dog kennel, you get the picture. The scientists (as far as I know) were Blair, Copper, and Fuchs.

Now I want to make a sandwich on my moutch, man I'm hungry. Gonna take some lunch. Nice reaction!!!

it wasn't a true story. Frank Dux is the biggest fraud in the history of frauds. there's a whole rabbit hole about him alone lol

This is one of my favorite episodes in the series.

Go Brew Crew!

They'll Come People Who'll Tell u That Episode is Bad and The Show Goes Downhill After This, DON'T FVCKING BELIEVE THEM! For Starters The Next Episode is a Classic and This Shows Slightly Loses It's Peak Stride in Season 13

Worst episode of the entire show.

Making a sandwich in your mouth is actually a great idea and it does taste better.

He is in Big Lebowski as the Private Eye looking for Bunny Knudsen

Lol. I wouldn't say Frank "went off the rails." I'd say he got on them 😉

Jon Polito played Jerry's landlord in Seinfeld.

Fyi, this is the "worst" episode of the series. Lmfao, I love this episode, tho. R.I.P John Polito (Gino) And Lance Reddick (Reggie)🙏🏽

As has been said already, it's widely registered as the worse, through season 12 at least. I'll never rewatch by myself but I don't mind it as a cut up reaction

This is a well known least favorite among the fans…rest of the season is great

Shady nasties😂🤣

Danny showing up in that wig as young Frank will always make me laugh. It's such a simple bit but Danny pulls off little gags like no one else. John Polito (he plays sleaze so well, check him out in The Crow) and the late great Lance Reddick, both with their own silly wigs, really push this episode up in the ratings for me.

He was in a lot of stuff but his brother also played Earl from the closet rival in Modern Family

Let’s goooo!!!

Great reaction, brother! Subbed as you probably have a lot more classic films to watch!

I have worked in the military in arctic temps, and I have spent time as a marksmanship instructor, for reference. Shooting a small moving target from a helicopter, in sub-zero temps, while snowblind, wearing mittens, and through a scope (which would really be a hinderance in this scenario) is a one-in-a-hundred proposition for even an excellent marksman. Saying he’s a bad shot is pretty funny. Dude’s hands are no doubt frozen and it’s perfectly reasonable that he would lose his grip on the grenade also. When you get that cold your motor skills go to absolute crap, and even walking and talking become very difficult.

Oh yeah. So glad that you watched it! Speaking of other installments you haven't watched...It jumped the shark on the 5th movie IMO but the TV series is very good!

4:25 No he meant that Jace didn't threaten him(Cregan) with his own dragon like Aegon the conqueror did in the past

Metal Gear Solid character "Solid Snake" was inspired by the character Snake Plissken.

You popped up on an older review a few weeks ago, and I've enjoyed watching a few of your recent movies. Came back tonight to play this as a first 'repeat' when going to bed, and noticed just how extensive your backlog is. I've got a few good ones queued up for tomorrow / this week, you've been fun to watch, and I can't wait to watch the older (movie) reactions!

Windows had the Keys when he found Bennings and dropped them in his panic, you can hear them drop. Blair was build a air-cushion hovercraft to get to the coast. I don't think you could build a spaceship for helicopter and tractor parts🤔

"I dunno what the hell's in there, but it's weird and pissed off, whatever it is." Fun Fact: Can you spot the fake fact? Budget Friendly Fact: The Norwegian camp scenes were actually the charred remains of the American site from the end of the film. Rather than go to the expense of building and burning down another camp, John Carpenter re-used the destroyed American camp. Practical Effects Fact: The film is considered a benchmark in special make-up effects. The effects were created by Rob Bottin, who was only 22 when he started the project. To create the effect of the title, an animation cell with "The Thing" written on it was placed behind a smoke-filled fish tank which was covered with a plastic garbage bag. The bag was ignited, creating the effect of the title burning onto the screen. Ending Explained Fact: According to an apocryphal story first reported on Reddit in February 2013, when asked about the ambiguous ending of the film, John Carpenter responded that he never understood how could there be any confusion about whether Childs or MacReady are human or not, because the last scene shows: "Kurt Russell and Keith David staring each other down, harshly backlit. It's completely, glaringly obvious that Kurt Russell is breathing, and Keith David is not."

Blair's behavior before he got locked up was perfectly rational and consistent with protecting humanity.

Great reaction to my favorite John Carpenter,Kurt Russell collab. A great movie i always prefer these movies with practical effects above CGI. A Theory of the ending of the movie is that Childs is the thing, because you see Mcready breath because of the cold and nothing is coming from Childs Mouth.

you should watch the 2011 version of the thing

Congratulations on watching the best practical effects horror suspense movie ever made to date 🤘🔥🤘 popular fan theory is Kurt put gasoline in that liquor bottle at the end.....and Childs drank it no issues 😳😄👍

Fun fact this movie is based off a book called Who Goes There and also a film called The Thing from another world! One of my favorite movies of all time!!

Favorite movie of all time. So glad to see it's getting recognition on reaction channels.

33:21 Who's not wearing long johns? They're in Antarctica, they're ALL wearing longjohns

"What did the dog do to you pal??" Hooooboy......

It's a Super cell Organism, that has the ability to effect DNA changes at a extremely fast rate and copy cells.{ Of equal bio mass}. It's original form would have been a Super cell ameba.. From what i remember the writer and art concept person said: That ship was a Zoology craft, it had 8 aliens operating it. One of the animals on the ship was infected by the Thing, and it got out and infected the engineer. From that point before it had a chance to infect the pilot, the pilot forced a crash landing on earth. During the movie this makes sense because the shapes it takes, are not from Earth, but from what was captured on the ship. The creature after it infected Blair, passed on the knowledge of the engineer and pilot for him to build a ship from scratch and to fly it. <~ We know the Dog infect Blair to pass on this info. If Palmer got Blair, Blair would have the know how to fly a chopper and not need to build a craft. This movies timeline is only 4 nights, which the first day is sunlight. So to give Blair the most time needed to construct that ship, he must have been infected before he destroyed everything. Remember he took the parts off the things he destroyed for his Hovercraft. Making the big, no one is going to leave is good. That means no one can follow him, when he leaves. Smashing stuff, covers his tracks of taking parts :)

I love a movie with good old-fashioned family values. In fact, I think the tagline for one of the movies was "The family that preys together, stays together."

This movie scared the out of me when I was a kid. I'd lay in bed, in the dark, thinking of the forms it could take to get into the house, to my room, to me. And if I just stayed awake, maybe I could hear it coming and have a chance to run away.. Maybe I could stay awake.. This movie really messed me up. I'm a huge fan of this movie and the idea of the organism. I mean, I never want to ever encounter such an organism, but you get what I mean. Blair was human when they locked him in the shack. It got to him either by opening the door or by tunneling in. Or, technically, it could have become something very small, crawled in under the door and attacked him while he slept by entering through his ear or mouth, or, it doesn't really matter much, it could simply inject a bit of itself into you and you're pretty much done. The scary thing about the thing is that you can be almost completely sure you haven't gotten all of it. Let's just assume all of the thing that presented itself to Macready was destroyed, all cells dead, and let's assume neither Macready nor Childs is the thing. We still have so many unknowns. Was the giant thing that Macready blew up really all of it? Could it have split itself up with a few small parts going here and there, some burying themselves to freeze and wake up later? We don't know. And what about the Norwegian camp? And what about the UFO site? What about INSIDE THE UFO? And we remember, it only takes 1 thing cell to take over all life on earth. And let's say we've accounted for all those locations, what about other parts of the thing that may have crawled away from the ufo hundreds of thousands of years ago? It's possible the thing may have infected an entire ecosystem that ended up freezing all those thousands of years ago and is waiting to be thawed.. The more one thinks about it, the more it seems infinitely unlikely the thing has been completely destroyed. And then, consider that those aliens that crashed on earth, probably due to becoming overtaken by the thing while they were navigating, also are out there somewhere, and the thing is out there in space, having infected thousands of lifeforms on an unknown number of planets, and there's any number of ways they could potentially come to earth again. Perhaps the humans of earth will be the next space explorers to find it and make the mistake of having it on our ship with us.

One of my top five favorite movies, and my all-time favorite horror movie! I love seeing people going into it blind and reacting to it, and your reaction was great as always! Crazy, terrifying movie, too bad you didn't watch it in the dark, that would have made it even more scary for you, but I'm glad you enjoyed it

If you go down the John Carpenter rabbit hole, I suggest doing They Live next. Hardly anyone reacts to it, and it's a classic and has wrestling legend 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper. What more do you need?

There are episodes that the more u see it the higher it will go of favorites 😂😅

Star Was was based off of Dune. Lucas was infatuated w Dune❤

3:51 5:42 9:07

Dude come on. You're a baseball fan and you never heard of Mike Schmidt? He played for the Phillies and was the greatest 3rd Baseman of all time. No joke. First ballot Hall of Famer

How come no-one ever wants the Tru-Coat?

Punt guns aren't handheld weapons. They are usually mounted onto boats for hunting waterfowl. There are other evolutions of different species of graboids but there's also a 13-episode season of a TV show that's set just after the 3rd movie.

This is top 5 episodes.

*"SOMETIMES DOGS DIE" - Fat Mac*

This is like my fav episode of all time, that and nightman.
