The Thing (2011) (Blu-ray SteelBook) (Walmart Exclusive) [USA]

This has been one of my more popular recent group buys, so I went ahead and added more for those folks that are budgeting or might be waiting to see actually in person pictures first.
I usually don't do this but probably won't order more from Walmart after release day.

I just got my copy, nice Steelbook but most definitely I prefer the French original one as for the slip it’s just worthless, in person is just horrible with all the lettering around and the clarity shown at the OP is not there. Oh well…
Never mind on the slip, it had a plastic protector that I had to take off the slip so now it’s clear lol
I always wonder how many people have steelbook protectors, and never realize that they have to remove the protective film from the plastic.
"It looks all hazy, but....O.K."

i agree, thats a very nice and glossy steelbook
And you can't beat that price!! I know it's not a 4K release, but I just watched it last night and it looked & sounded impressive!
I did notice a few scenes where the CGI was noticeable, but the presentation was great & also has disc art. Seems rare anymore for the standard Bluray to have disc art instead of just the film logo all the time.
I watched this the other day, it's not the dumpster fire or the "remake" many make it out to be. I can totally understand why people think it's a remake though, because the story is near identical to the original, which is why I found it kinda boring and unnecessary tbh. The only thing that really makes it a prequel is a little bit of history about the ship, and the dog running off right at the end to tie it into the original film.
It completely ties in with Carpenters.
I loved the way we got to see how the damage and deaths happened at the Norewegian base they visited at the start of that movie. Right down to the axe stuck in the door.....
Yeah, for sure, I know it ties in. It's very nearly a play by play of the original film though, for the events that happen. That's why I get some think it's a remake, and why found it kinda boring. There was no surprise. Bit of history, but nothing unexpected.
so please send me one of the 10% copies, my ocd will thx you
Oh wow that’s turned out real decent
Might have to track a copy down at some point
