  • That better not be Kristen Stewart i hear

  • i agree a women will probably help in ruining this movie but it shouldn't be an action movie if it wants to stay true to the original 1982 version. not counting 1951 version.

  • Damn!, I saw that trailer and its very well edited, is there anyway to see this trailer then at Universal Studios? and no its a prequel, of the Norwegian scientist's exploits

  • @scoves9484 You fucking idiot. Period.

  • GREAT PROFILE. THE THING CAN ABLE TO CHANGE INTO ANY LIFE FORM I TOUCH!! I COULD BE YOU...........................­­.....{THING~FEST}2008 {THING~FEST}2011. 27000.HOURS = 3 YEARS!

    {THING~FEST] ASSIMILATION COMPLETED

  • the wierd THING is that this is actually real

  • the official trailer is out and it looks good!

  • The official trailer is out on fandango.com. I must say it looks pretty good. Gosh! October is so far away!

  • who else saw this at HNN ? lol i did ^^

  • its coming out in october of this year, but you wont see it, because end date is 25 september 2011 ( arriving Nibiru )

  • They put a woman as a leading role in The Thing? Kill me please.

  • @Scarred4lyfe3 you sexist piece of crap, it's a prequel not a remake

  • agreed nude scenes r for slasher flicks not sci fi,the thing top 5 all time fav movies but they will find a way to ruin it they always do

  • This movie is going to be shit. All fake-ass looking CGI, jump-out-at-you scares, with some meghan fox types thrown in, who occasionally flash their whore tits for the camera. Its gonna be embarrassing.

  • @Aresolar690 Info released about the film says most of the effects are practical, with CGI used for things that a human being is physically incapable of doing. Megan Fox types? Considering the protagonists was based on Ellen Ripley from the "Alien" franchise, I don't think so. Why not do a little research before spouting off, hm?

  • @Aresolar690 And you judge it with such conviction even though all there is so far of it is a blurry trailer. Don't judge it until it comes!

  • "HAPPY 29TH BIRTHDAY!" JUNE 25TH 2011 - TODAY IS THE 29TH ANNIVERSARY! TO "THE THING" 1982 BLOCK BUSTER CLASSIC....JOHN CARPENTER'S >THE THING!< LOOK FOR THING-FEST 2011 ON FACEBOOK TODAY JUNE 25TH 2011......

  • What i really liked about the original is the cast was made up of a group of lonely men in an ice-box. The viewer could focus on the tension and suspense of the story as it unfolded. Now they're probably going to blow their budget on special effects instead of good writers, directors and actors. They'll also likely add a woman who will engage in a predictable (and horribly stupid) love side-story. I hope she's the first one to die.

  • @PixeIIe Don't forget the unneeded "woman taking a shower" scene. It's bound to happen, because nudity sells.

    I pray for this to be a good movie, since the one from the 80s is one of my favorite movies of all time, but I have some serious doubts, knowing how the movies today are.

  • so whats the official website listed at the end??? cant read it :/

  • The reality is i think the movie gonna be cool but , as the first thing movie ended, and started off by a rescue expedition found and rescued Mcready and Childs and after returning home then all hell break loose,then it would be a gr8 movie trailer ....

  • So this is nothing like the game The Thing? :D

  • @kalev76 According to wikipedia, the filmmakers decided to draw no influence from the video game

  • I don't understand why they have a trailer for it, and have not released it to the full public. This is why so many good movies don't do well. I was shocked/happy to finally see a trailer. But they should have released this sooner at the movies and everywhere. They have a teaser poster that they don't promote fully too. I hope they clean up their act and release some stuff quickly and promote "THE HELL" out of it!

  • @MillerMUCKERS

    By now there are so many fake trailers of this "thing" out there that it will take weeks for people to actually believe that it is really coming. They'll lose plenty of business because of this secrecy. If it really is good (which is anybody's guess) they'll get it back from the dvd aftermarket. Maybe. But I agree with you: The way they non-marketed this potential hit is just stupid.

  • Ok, will this be mostly animatronic?

  • this isn't the thing

  • Nice all the other videos on youtube are fake so far I hope its a good movie... I always burn ppl on cod when im done shootin cause they might be one of those things!

  • I hope it's a good movie; I like to expect that it will be bad and then see if I was wrong or right.

  • where was this filmed?

  • They need to hype this movie up! Why wouldn't they put the commercial on youtube and build anticipation for this movie? I hope this movie isn't as bad as there promotional strategy....

  • the movie is now sch'd for oct 2011.

  • if this is gonna be just about what happened to the nords and does not try to remake the 80's thing then i will be cool with this ,cuz technically it will be its own movie and not some shitty remake remake. i hope they use special effects animatronics like carpenters, and the theme at the end was awesome

  • @flipmasta14

    The Thing from 1982 was a remake of a hokey 50's b-movie did you know that?

  • THE LANDMARK LOEW'S JERSEY THEATRE 54 JOURNAL SQUARE JERSEY CITY NJ LOEWJERSEY ORG 201 798 6055

    THE THING 1982 JOHN CARPENTER'S CLASSIC

  • Does anyone here think that this can stand up to the 1982 version?

    I mean, the spider head scene was probably the best part of the whole movie.

  • I hope it's set back in the 80's and use pratical fx

  • I actually saw at Universal Studios. The films sound and cinematography look great. I'm a little worried about the actors, but I bet everything will be fine plus Mary Winstead looks beautiful as always. .

  • Is this a joke or sth.? :( There is no news whatsoever about the movie and it´s said to come out on May 5.

  • @SlicedAndDiced It's real - but the movie was pushed back to October.

  • @GamingShogun I saw Nov. 17

    Point is, they're fucking filming it, and it'll be out before new years.

    It's really fucking happening and Alec Gillis is on board.

  • @GamingShogun oct 14 to be exact :)

  • @SlicedAndDiced yeah i was thinking that same but its not a joke i can confirm that. Just thought it was supposed to be out already.

  • @SlicedAnd

    changed to october

  • @SlicedAndDiced No news? Have you been living under a rock?

  • @SlicedAndDiced its out in october now =[

  • @SlicedAndDiced - Check IMDB my friend. It has been on the radar for some time. Release date is October.

  • its pretty cool that they kept the original music

  • Dude Its The 22nd Of April I Never Saw The Trailer On Tv

  • @AniMATE111 this film is not out until october 2011 how could you of seen it?!

  • The girl from Scott Pilgrim is in here :P

  • they better use everything in the backround as in the same year none of this time traveling ipad user bullshit

  • @dmohr7 I agree 100%. This IS a prequel so, they better make it look it was shot back in the original movie of 1982.

  • I read that this is a prequel. whitch is cool. not like the fuckin polymaths that decided to remake fright night.

  • I came when I heard the theme of the original the thing at the end

  • The video may not be great, but the sound is much better here than on other copies.

  • Thumbs up if the thing is your favorite movie of all time and for good luck they dont mess this up!

  • @AniMATE111 you saw the thing remake? then whats the main plot of the story?

  • did they take the "the" out of the title "the thing"? I cant tell, the screen is too small..

  • @cmonutube no its there , after ''Some'' disseappears, it just the glare of the tv

  • John Carpenter's is a masterpiece.

  • I hope it is as bloody as the 82 version.

  • NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! worst remake EVER!!!!!!! Im gonna put everybody who made this remake in room filled with oil and throw a match in there so nobody will ever have to see this peice of crap film(remake)!!!!!! IT doesnt make sense!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Anonymous91331 it's not a remake. it's a prequel. forums and blogs said that. they'll use animatronics and partial cgi to fill the part of the animatronics.

  • i hope they dont use so much cgi for this movie

  • "our sense of identity...will be altered..." heh heh

    I really hope this delivers. Carpenter's film is still so fresh after all these years.

  • i reckon this will actually be a really good prequel..........for once!

  • This film's going to suck more ass than the last victim in the human centipede

  • if the film is good all the way through it will be ruined regardless if by the end of it the entire 'Norwegian' crew are not dead but for the last two who die at the beginning of the 1982 remake.

    Hope that makes sense :S

  • ANOTHER remake of a horror film? When is this trend going to stop? Want to make easy money? Just take other peoples' hit material and remake it -- movies, songs, etc. A remake of The Birds is set for 2013. A remake of Suspiria is set for 2012.

  • @brgvt97

    Actually its going to be a prequel but with the same title....

    Do the research. Its about the original Norwegian crew that discovered the alien and the film takes place right before the first film.

  • @brgvt97

    Actually its a prequel with the same name...

    Do the research its about the original Norwegian crew that discovered the alien and takes place just before the first film.

  • @ICEnJAM its funny because in john carpenters thing the norwegians didnt speak english

  • Actually it's been said that they are tying to do the movie without much CGI at all..following in the footsteps of John Carpenter..whose main ingredient to the 82 remake was pig guts and blood..should be really good!!

  • they're gonna ruin this with CGI, bad acting and a lack of creepyness that made the 1982 version a killer.

  • This film should all be in Norwegian and subtitled or played by all Norwegian actors. They better not ruin this film with some stupid porn scene

  • @Colton5 exactly !

  • @Colton5 Thank you! I think your absolutley right, if this is a prequel to 82 it should atleast match up to the original story, have some continuity! I also agree with the porn scene comment. Some people live by the philosophy horror needs blood and tits to be good, but horror doesnt! I like women and all but a girl pulling them out for no reason doesn't add much of anthing and it bugs me. I hate going to a movie and feeling akward as hell when there's a ten minute random sex scene.

  • @Colton5

    there's a woman in it....thats bad enough!

  • @donnyab

    Why be sexist?

  • @Colton5 Word is that they shot scenes in both Norwegian and in English, so the final product will most likely be a toss-up between the two. Not ideal, but I'm sure they could make it work.

  • @Colton5 Apparantly the director is Norwegian himself and most of the crew are played by Norwegian actors, so I assume some of the film will be subtitled. But I think that having two Americans won't matter, and this film still looks amazing either way.

  • @Colton5 Thats what i was thinking, man but good thing the director looked back and double check that everything from the previous film has everything about the Norwegians.

  • @Colton5 They ruined it already . A woman is in the movie . and she looks like a fucking stupid bitch . the only woman who can play roles like that in a sci fi movie is the one from alien.

  • i love how everyone's talking in the beginning, then at the end everyone shat themselves silently

  • Okeeeyyy...i dont get it, werent they supposed to be norwegian?

  • October 14 2011 release date. I hope theyre willing to do it subtle still... Let ppls imaginations do the rest.

  • love Mary Elizabeth Winstead! :)

  • going to be tron 2 indy four etc it will suck.

  • I'm not too excited. Looks like they cast a couple of pretty young abercrombie and finch models to play the leads. Not a good sign.

  • i can't frickin' wait for this trailer to be released xD there's somethin' i never thought i'd say xD

  • ill give this guy credit cause previews for this movie are sort of rare. espcially since they pushed the release date back.

  • All I gotta say is there better not be some stupid love story in this.

  • I loved the original!!!!! At first I thought they were going to mess it up but after reading about it, I'm getting excited. I didn't know there was a trailer yet!!!! It looks awesome!!!! They better not mess it up!!!!!

  • If this turns out to be honeymooners vs. The Thing, I'm going to be royally angry. Jurassic Park 3 was the last straw on that idea. Plus, I thought it was a Norweigan base that found it first, not another American base.

  • @BlueIndividual No she's just another scientist, and in interviews they said she won't be in like a relationship with anyone, she'll just act like any other character.

  • Another cult classic that's gonna be turned into dog shit. I love the Thing,

    i got the original 50'sb&w version which is good, i got the carpenter version which is great, even got the game way back when, despite it atrociousness. im betting that it will be mostly CG, which just isn't the same, always looks fake the real in-the-flesh mock ups for the 82 were incredibly realistic. If they have somebody wear a sombrero i'll automatically raise it a letter grade. if half as decent ill be impressd

  • @SmokenAces I keep reading that it's gonna be practical effects used for this film, puppets animatronics, etc. And only some CGI used to here and there, to blend with the physical effects. And the little CGI that will be in the movie will be handled by the District 9 f/x ppl, so it should be convincing. And this is not a remake, it's a prequel to Carpenter's, just to make that clear. Most ppl tend to think, just because it's called "The Thing" that it's a remake, it's not.

  • @SmokenAces They said they would only use CGI to blend in with the physical effects, the majority of it's gonna be using animatonics and other physical effects, like in the original, really hope they don't mess i up, The Thing is easily one of if not the best classic horror movies ever made!

  • I hate to say it, even though this looks good I've got low standards, mostly because we know the Norwegians die. That and of course, film making has changed alot.

  • @Taraka1 Should still be great though, the only thing we definitely know about the Norwegians are the two that get killed at the beginning of the 1982 version who are chasing the dog in the helicopter, other than that, we don't know how the guy got his throat and wrists cut and there was a cut scene of a Norwegian who was killed and inside a cupboard, hope they keep that in. Really hope that they're faithful to the original film.

  • I was just checking that the movie change form a april 29 release to a TBD?? i cant believe thiss:/

  • @JesusMovieFreak It's now coming out October something.

  • think i can wait for the proper trailer, but hats-off for getting hold of this footage!

  • MARY ELIZABETH WINSTED YAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!1!1

  • My only problem... The special effects are probably going to be CGI, not the good old homemade stuff in the '82 version. Special effects aren't really that special anymore, are they? If it was up to me, the SFX in this movie would be done the same way they were in the '82 version.

  • you didnt even ZOOM

    but awesome tho

  • Damn I so want this movie now, I have the script but damn. John Carpenters THE THING is my all time fav movie, I think it is as close to a perfect more as you can get. This movie can only fail in my eyes, I so want to be proved wrong.

  • @TR0LL2R0CKS

    Howd you get the script?

  • have you drunk what? because kamera wobbles so ! :D

  • This one has much better sound to the other bootleg! Also, you get to see a snarling mouth(?) at 1:56 that you don't see in the other one.

  • @halfvulcan

    send me the link to watch the trailer then mate

  • @halfvulcan could you send the link to see the better quality version plz I loved the orignial movie:)

  • Dude, no way! I went on the 22nd too! Ive been trying to find this trailer everywhere ever since I went on King Kong 3d! Thanks for the upload!

  • @ocp188 No worries, just wish I could have gotten closer to the screen. Also, I found it rather depressing that this trailer was way more entertaining to me than the actual King Kong 3D experience, lol.

  • @GamingShogun Hahaha I know what you mean!

  • I like the fact that they kept the original theme song from the original pretty cool keeping it classic like. Feels more genuine that way to me.

  • @RyoNoHikari Yeah. Sitting there in the cold dark on a tram in an empty backlot - when the theme came on... That's when I officially got creeped out. Ennio did an amazing job with the score of the first one.

  • @GamingShogun Yeah also I haven't seen any comments from Mary Elizabeth Winstead from this movie. Would be cool to hear something from her. Or even Kurt Russel's thoughts on this.

  • @RyoNoHikari Yeah much of the cast has been surprisingly quiet on this one as of yet. Perhaps things will pick up with press junkets as the new year approaches?

  • @RyoNoHikari Am listening to Ennio Morricones' Original Soundtrack right now. I hope the new Composer (Marco Beltrami) keeps the Heartbeat-Bass Effect and that three-note-Theme.

  • Why is it always when someone has a handheld camera that they can never keep their hands stready?

  • @TheCodedArm It's because I was taking it on a cell phone inside a moving vehicle. In a back lot. Of a movie studio with obstacles. lol.

  • "We found something in the ice, someone, quick! call a cheerleader, we need a cheerleader here fast!"

  • thanx=) where you was this at when you shot this?

  • @leakyvalve I was on a tram at Universal Studios Halloween Horror Nights. Apparently they showed this once at the NYCC and then only at HHN until the end of October. I think we will see this in wider release online in November.

  • @GamingShogun I sure hope so! we have a whole planet of Thingers frothing at the mouth in anticipation!!!!

  • thanx=)

  • I still can't believe the first movie did so badly at the box office when it first came out. Anyway, thanks for uploading!

  • I just took a survey on the internet and got to see the trailer. There were watermarks on it, but other than that it was relatively clear.

  • @HyperMetal25 got a link?

  • Well there is no official date yet but rumor has it that we are only looking at a couple morevweeks until they release it.

  • When is the official trailer being released?

  • Lol I know, sorry about that. The tram was moving around like crazy. I will get the HD version up as soon as Universal releases it.

  • @GamingShogun

    When is the official trailer being released 

  • Looks good, I wish you would have zoomed in on that shit. lol still good though.
