Synopsis:
The Thing 2011, Extended and tweaked. When I contructed "THE THINGS" edit ( a mashup of both the 1982 and 2011 versions), I also made an extended version of the 2011 version. We all hoped to see the original VFX that were sgot with practical effects that were later replaced in post production, but this will clearly now not occur. Over the years, I have shared this version with a few on the site, to favorable responses. So on that basis (and yet another request to wither make this oedit or release it), I believe now is the time to re-appraise this film. The one provisio I make to any who review this is that this was the last Standard Definition edit I made, So please do not scor it down on image on that basis. It was and is DVD quality, and older DVD based edits were not penalised back then, so please bear this in mind. I will in the fullness of time, make an HD version of this....eventually. ENJOY to all W

Intentions:
To remove the egregious VFX elements and over exposition and improve the overall viewing experience.

Change List:
Since the original file and timeline have been lost, this brief description is what I offer...best to watch I say... - It added in nearly all the deleted material - Trimmed some of the more egregious VFX - Trimmed some of the over exposition - made some selective scoring enhancements

Additional Notes:
This version addressed a few issues: - It added in nearly all the deleted material - Trimmed some of the more egregious VFX - Trimmed some of the over exposition - made some selective scoring enhancements I never relased this due to the overwhelming bad reviews and fan reaction to the film back then.
