    Wait. Can somebody explain the ending to this? I don't get it.

    You're supposed to be left guessing who the thing was too

    No, you know it isn't in MacReady since he committed suicide, but you're left wondering if it's in Childs or not.

    It was in the tricked out edition bro. New ending. MacReady kills himself after learning that it was indeed rape.

    Well that fucking blows the movie to shit then.

    Original ending was how it should've ended.

    pretty sure they say in the movie that they're so far away that its impossible for anyone to get to them in time to mount any sort of rescue, not that they want to give the thing a means of escape and infecting the mainland anyways

    Are you counter-trolling or do you actually not realize you got trolled?

    Listen to the commentary. Neither one of them is sure if the other is human, meaning they won't be able to relax and will surely die either way.

    There was a guy on youtube who used clues from the movie to figure out who was The Thing at the end, and he concluded it was Childs, based on the jacket he was using. Seriously. He seemed very convincing, so I believe that's what the ending was.

    Pretty much we all figured it was Childs

    Carpenter always meant for it to be ambiguous. If there are any "hints" they're probably just accidents.

    I've seen that. Very good analysis.

    I don't know, the way the guy followed all the clothing clues it made it seem like it was too meticulous to be accidental.

    It was a movie in the 80s with a really tight budget. Shit happens, shirts get lost and replaced with different shirts, actors spill shit on shirts, etc.

    The accidentally hilariously poor climax suggests to me that the worst is yet to come. Black was a Thing.

    Was MacReady autistic?

    There's a short story that tells the events from the perspective of the thing that supports this. Good stuff.

    Actually, having now seen those videos I'm pretty convinced Childs was the Thing.

    There was supposed to be a claymation scene with the Diabeetus Thing, but it didn't work out and they left the scene as you see it in the film: Macready does a silly roll and The Thing explodes.

    I can't remember the names of the characters. Fuck google.

    The fact that this guy sounds like Ringo Star makes this video alot more entertaining than I thought it would be
