'Shout-out' to The Thing in this .....


I just watched this today. Was ok. My fave part was a little reference to 'The Thing' in it, about 3/4 of the way thrgh it. The original one I mean, with Kurt Russell. Any
of you guys spot it like I did???

Qfal -- in The Thing, do u remember the scene when Kurt Russell has all the guys tied up on the bench. So he can take samples of their blood, & if they test 'positive' to be one of the 'Things', then they cant escape or attack him. After everything is said & done - theres still one guy who's tied down - even though the test cleared him. I think the character is 'Gary'. Everybody seems to not be in a hurry to untie him, even thgh they are now suposed to. So, he calmly gets their attn and says a line along the lines of this :
"Gentleman, I know this has been a bit of a stressful day for everyone. And you all may still be a bit busy. But when you find the time, could you please UNTIE ME FROM THIS *beep* COUCH!!!!!!" By the end he screams it. Well, in Wind Walkers theres a scene where all the guys are tied up. Then, only one guy is left sitting there tied up. And he says almost the EXACT dialogue to the main character, word for word. Not a coincidence, I am sure.
