Really AIJ? This lineup looks AWESOME, I'm so there this time, I missed the last one, will NOT be missing this one! Wish they would hurry up and let us know the prices

Well, this year's line-up isn't quite as diverse as last year, and some of them are fairly obscure, but still, Mastodon and Turisas on their own are enough to go.

Just found out they plan to remake The Thing! If it doesn't bomb....it's going to be the bee's knees!

Not a remake. It's a prequel of sorts telling the story of the team of researchers from Norway, AKA where the infected dog comes from at the beginning of the original THING, the huge slab of ice they find, the empty area where a spaceship was ect...the entire cast is mainly Scandinavian, barring an American researcher. But the film is meant to show you what happened to the initial people who encountered the thing that you only guessed at in the original film (when they investigate the abandoned, destroyed Norwegian base that the dog came from).

Presumably the film will end with the dog being chased by the helicopter that we see at the beginning of the original THING.

...and they aren't "planning it", it's been made, there is a trailer and the film actually comes out next Friday Oct 14th. LOL

and it looks effing badass!

But yeah, not a remake.

Exactly. I'm already kinda put off by the decision to go CG over real-world practical special effects, but it's not a total dealbreaker. No reason not to at least hope for the best.

I wanna see The Thing! Better show in 2D! I still haven't seen the remake of Fright Night because it only shows in 3D :'( I've been watching the original on vhs but it only makes me want to see the remake more <_<

Yah, it did surprisingly poorly, since it actually reviewed relatively well. I think most people felt it was a wait-for-DVD level movie, which is fair enough. That's what I'm doing, anyway.

Found out today brother and his wife are pregnant.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....
