Hi Jay,

I thought I sent a PM earlier today? Now, obviously, I have doubts. )

I do have a PM to you in my outbox. I also emailed photos to your email - I take it they didn't arrive either?

Let me know because I can probably post them in the classifieds for you?
Best Wishes,

-J

Hey welcome m8ys

Yes,The Thing scared the shit out of me when i first saw it,i was 9 at the time!EFNY is my favourite all time film though!

John Carpenter was definitely the main man in the late 70's & early eighties!

to the forum Martijn!

No argument from me.From 'Dark Star' in '74 to 'The Thing' in '82 - one of cinemas greatest ever hot streaks for a director. Some time between then and now he appears to have lost his mind.

Hi Jeremy, & for those that may not have seen some of his stuff already Martijn attach a link to your great collection It's really impressive.

Huh? - its in its early stages just yet

hello bob & martijn glad to have ya on the TIG. .Dan

Welcome to the new peoples!

(Hope that didnt sound too much like Borat...)

As a new person here myself, please heed this warning: Never in my LIFE have I been exposed to such a group of VULGAR, RUDE, CUT THROAT, SINISTER and CRUEL TWATS! Let me tell ya, they are tight lipped with ANY and ALL information, they have an AIRE or ARROGANCE that is REPULSIVE, and the absolute WORST aspect of the lot of 'em is how they make you FEEL when they finally DO talk to ya - - like the SLIME of the EARTH! I only thought it FAIR to let you new folks KNOW of these low-life characters AHEAD of time, before they have the chance to abuse YOU as they have ME!!

.....Oh....hell....SORRY new people...I got my wires crossed, I was thinking of ANOTHER board that I used to frequent, MY bad!

As to THESE guys here, GREAT bunch! They all have made me feel very welcomed and I have not bad word ONE to say of ANY of them! (Well, except that this place seems absolutely INFESTED with Aussies and Brits..but ah well, they arent THAT bad to be around....if you dont mind soccer hooligans and whackos wafflin on about something called "Ledys".... )

Cheers M8s!

The Thing = BEST of Carpenter's films, hands down. Aslo the best remake of a film ever.



Andre

Oh, and WELCOME to the new peoples!

They remade the THING? (i seen that at the cinema when it came out )

Yes sir, Carpenter's version IS the remake....it was originally a Hawke's (sp) film from the mid 50s called "The Thing From Another World"

Hi Paul, This is a great place to hang out- where else will you see a topic change from Popy boxed figures to Ms piggy fingers Post up a list of what figures you still need, you'll get some here without devil plastic crap

James, the gerbil isn't complaning. He likes Kermit.
