Universal has pulled The Thing, a prequel to John Carpenter's 1982 classic, from its April 29, 2011 release slot. Official word states that the film is "not yet ready", but that could mean anything from extra time being needed on editing or effects to reshoots. Let's hope for the best and we'll report as soon as we have more information on the reason for the delay and the new release date.
