Probably unpopular opinion but that's what I liked about the thing remake/prequel🤷🏽

When it came out I hadn't seen the thing. So I rented it from blockbuster then went and saw the new one.

First.

It was great because that was my first experience watching the thing which is a great film.

Second I went in thinking ok is it going to be different? Or are they going for a shot for shot thing like psycho with Vince vahn"

Then the thing went on and it was totally different and I was like what's happening????

And only at the end did I realize this happened before the original and I read like OH SHIT THOSE WERE THE BODIES AND SUCH!

And that read like a big brain canon moment.
