The Thing 1982
Trouble in the arctic polycule
Still the best practical effects ever.literally disgusting and alien in the best way possible.
Great monster kills, some funny spooky stings, and such great lighting … had me ooohing and ahhhhhing. Another cool thing(!) is how the mystery of who that thang is is being kept secret until the end, and even up for debate too. It’s always fun to read some “theories” and whatnot.
Devious tingyEdit: best dog actor ever? It’s so unsettling how it stares and its intelligence and creepin is played out so well.

If we exist in a dream then who is the dreamer?
Great soundtrack and sound design. The whooshing wind, rising orchestral pieces and shrill woodwinds make some great texture along with the cinematography.

Heat 1995
You’d need to rob a bank to support Big Al’s cocaine budget for this movie
Really makes me want to play payday 2, bank robbing must be fun…
Everybody in the crew is incredible, and the cat and mouse between Pacino and De Niro makes for great tension and banter. Score and sound team popped off, from the subtle calm before the storm to the pulse pounding eardrum bursting gunfire (everybody in the car would be deaf as fuck after Kilmers first volley of gunfire)Translated from by
