The Thing Is...

Look, if we're going to re-make John Carpenter sci-fi flix, here's one that needs re-made. This explains the 1%, does it not?

Imagine what they could do with this now with CGI, a good script and better, non-wrestling actors. Toss in a major plot device with Occupy Wall Street, and the goddamned thang re-writes itself.

UPDATE: Edited for clarity. Also, see here for a nice critique of the film, and here for the thoughts of Carpenter about the documentary-ness of it in context to our world, today.
