Another remake of "The Thing"?

Opening against the remake of "Footloose" is another remake, of "The Thing".

If you can't make a new movie, remake an old one. "The Thing" is a movie classic, both times, literally (the 1951 Cold War paranoia thriller with James Arness as a carrot-shaped alien, and the 1982 John Carpenter remake) -- so why not try again with even better special effects? Now, the trailer looks pretty good. So will the movie be good? Who knows? Who cares? It's "The Thing"! Getting there is all the fun.

Currently 32% at RottenTomatoes - but some of the reviewers that liked it really seemed to like it.

Looks good enough to me to look for the DVD.
