Pro-tip: Don't look for accurate science (or accurate anything, sometimes) in a Hollywood blockbuster. Nine times out of ten, you'll be disappointed :P
Yeah, but now it's like anti-science propaganda. "Man should not play god" or something like that.
I thought it was pretty good at conveying the "Dinosaurs are awesome" message.  Which is frankly the only reason we have to bring them back.
They're dead. Can't be awesome and get yourself exterminated at the same time, in my book those are mutually exclusive :)
Eh, it was by a giant space rock, I think we can exempt that.
Giant space rock causing worldwide devastation and the extinction of most life on Earth? That in itself is pretty damn awesome, even more so that life did survive.

Mmph. Might have a point there, but that's a pretty common message. All the way back to the Frankenstein days and up to today. I don't tend to look for messages in my silly 2-3 hour entertainment anyway.

Just admire the amazing CGI and suspend disbelief for a couple of hours.

A carapace or exoskeleton wouldn't do much to defend against fire. Hell, even modern battle tanks can only take so much of it before the heat starts melting the insides. A fleshy Thing would simply cook in it's own shell.

But we're getting off-track (again). There was a Thing game on the PS2, but it wasn't all that great. Had some good ideas though.

Didn't they use a heated piece of wire on blood samples to tell whether someone was the Thing?
They did. The blood screamed, IIRC.

I remember hearing that the Thing was sorta vulnerable to electricity, in that it will instinctively attack whatever zaps it even if it would be in it's best interest to remain undetected. In the movie, they attempt to use a defibrillator on some dude who turns out to be a/the Thing. If it had just played dead, or pretended to "get better", it would have been fine. Instead it sprouts a set of jaws from it's ribcage and reveals itself only to get roasted.

So perhaps that's the Thing's major weakness. That and enough fire or acid will destroy anything made of organic matter.

I mean, is it like with cats always getting under your feet, only this time you're walking around and suddenly it slams into the side of your head, flying monkey sideswipe style?
New project: breed flying cats.
Pretty sure they can already do that.

Well, most spambots don't bother responding, so that's a point in your favor :P

I already use this program, since I need to squeeze every bit of CPU I can get out of this second-rate laptop sometimes. Never tried it for DF though.

Not sure if new breed of spambot with an avatar, or just not the best first post to make...

DUALISM

That makes it seem like Gregor is really angry with Charlotte for something.

"Stop critting my kills!"
Why would Gregor yell at Charlotte? That's mean :<
But you're right, it totally looks like that.

I was just thinking that! Probably my favorite game played on this forum so far. Now, I haven't played many, but it's right up there :D

But seriously, I wanna see Haspen's reaction to all that has transpired while he slumbered.

I'm not gonna be putting my life on display. Partly because venting doesn't really make me feel better, but mostly because reading everyone else's is really depressing  :-\
