Don't think I've seen Ice Station Zebra, I'll have to check it out.
When I was a kid, it was the original, The Thing From Another World. No offense to James Arness, but I thought it was kind of hokey.
Loved the 80's one with Kurt Russell, one of my all time favorite movies, scary af!
I didn't remember they made another The Thing in 2011, which was actually a prequel. I think I only saw it once.
The producers convinced Universal Studios to allow them to create a prequel to John Carpenter's The Thing (1982) instead of a remake, as they felt Carpenter's film was already perfect, so making a remake would be like "painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa". However, the prequel still has the title of the original film, because they couldn't think of a subtitle (for example, "The Thing: Begins") that sounded good.
It was heartbreaking how they try to rebuild that b29 got it almost rebuilt enough to fly off the island, and then it caught fire and burned. Absolutely heartbreaking story
The US already had an under ice nuclear powered army base there. Whats the big deal. Never hunted Nazis before?
How long before someone rewatches some Captain America movies about things buried in the ice…
If we're going to talk about things buried in the ice, I much prefer 'The Thing'!

Yes they did and they left a hell of a mess when they left. They used to have over 100 stations.
Left all in mess when they left. Not really well liked there. Will be a hard sell.
We have a Space Force base there (used to be Thule Air Force Base). Still.
CNN is getting in on the fun https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2025/03/15/science/camp-century-secret-arctic-base-cold-war
Air frames from crashes as well. For years I used to pack a chunk of DC3 around.

Trump doesnt idly speculate about anything. Greenland is either a done deal or its bait for something else. Same for Canada and Panama.
Did he bring any snowmobiles?😝
BEAST snowmobiles? I like this.
I had a few few minutes of fun with the AI trying to brainstorm ideas for this
When I lived there we had a total of 6 KM road net.
Interesting. Why did you live there?
I grew up there. Left for DK in 74 when I enlisted
That's probably why Trump is not going. The road is not long enough for his motorcade!
rofl :)) good one
