    In that lady’s defense, I’m pretty sure the opening scene of The Thing was intentionally written to make people go “what the fuck? why are they shooting at that dog?!”

      Yes, and in the guy’s defense, the rest of the movie is written to reveal more info.

        In that lady’s defense, some people seem to have their internal monologue tuned to the wrong frequency, and usually blurt it out instead.

      Also I think they literally tell you (just not in English) why they’re shooting at it at the beginning of the movie.
