The Thing (2011)

[whitezombie]

Hi all,

What is the general consensus about this -

I, for one, am quite excited, though I have not read a whole lot about it.
It's got a pretty low-key cast, and I would hope that those involved have had a fairly free reign over the film.

Whilst everyone hopes it will be good, and stand up as a companion piece to the first film, what do you guys think so far?

Also, will they be speaking Norwegian? I'm guessing not, given that there are several English/American actors involved.
