Memorable scenes from "John Carpenter's The Thing", my personal favorite movie:
MacReady: I just wanna get up to my shack and get drunk...
Computer Voice: [moves its chess piece] Checkmate. Checkmate.
[MacReady pours his drink into the computer tower, frying it]
MacReady: Cheating bitch.
Palmer: I was wonderin' when El Capitan was gonna get a chance to use his popgun.
Clark: I dunno what the hell's in there, but it's weird and pissed off, whatever it is.
Childs: I just cannot believe any of this voodoo bullsh*t.
Palmer: Childs, it happens all the time, man. They're falling out of the sky like flies. Government knows all about it, right, Mac?
Childs: You believe any of this voodoo bullsh*t, Blair?
Palmer: Childs, Childs... Chariots of the Gods, man. They practically own South America. I mean, they practically taught the Incas everything they know.
Dr. Blair: [smashing up the radio room with an axe while yelling] A Cell gets out, and it will IMITATE EVERYTHING on the face of the EARTH! AND NOTHING CAN STOP IT!
Childs: [appearing from around a doorway] Hey, take it easy, come on, Blair, you don't want to hurt nobody.
Dr. Blair: [Blair whips a pistol out and shoots at him but misses] I'LL KILL YOU!
[fires more shots]
[Norris' head grows legs and tries to walk away]
Palmer: You gotta be f***ing kidding....
Garry: I know you gentlemen have been through a lot, but when you find the time... I'd rather not spend the rest of this winter TIED TO THIS F***ING COUCH!
MacReady: Childs, we're going out to give Blair the test. If he tries to make it back here and we're not with him... burn him.
Garry: The generator's gone.
MacReady: Any way we can we fix it?
Garry: It's "gone", MacReady.
Childs: The explosions set the temperatures up all over the camp. But it won't last long though.
MacReady: When these fires go out, neither will we.
Childs: How will we make it?
MacReady: Maybe we shouldn't.

The first time I ever saw The Thing was when it first came out on HBO in 83' I think. I was suffering from a bad flu and had a bad fever of like 103. Watching The Thing for the first time at age 11 with a wicked fever tripped me out! LOL I've loved it ever since! :thumbup:
