I'm sorry, I considered you a respectable member of our community with rational thought. Should we treat you like GW?

You are saying that more is better? How would you improve on this story? Did it need some kind of M. Night Shyamalan twist at the end? Kurosawa movies have one plot by that standard.

So the director said to himself "I'm going to cast Russell and Brimley because 20 years from now people are going to do this thing on the internet that will catch on among hipsters!"
Seriously dude, are you really just going to bubble every movie from the past into HIPSTERS LOVE IT SO I CAN'T?

Also Kurosawa used Yurei several times in his movies which (BACK THEN) was terrifying to the Japanese people. HOW DARE HE!
I don't care if you like the Thing or not. What I do care about is that you frequently talk shit about movies here and never back it up with a reasonable explanation.
