Starship Troopers had the highest survival rate, so that one.

Absolutely not The Thing because you have no idea if escaping means the end of the world. You'd have to murder suicide the whole place.

Aliens... Maybe. It's survivable, but just barely. You'd probably want to hold a live grenade with the pin pulled the whole time, so you'd at least never have to be brought back to the queen.

I hear just outside McMurdo, if you dig down a bit, you'll find an ancient outpost.

Or maybe an immortal woman with magical healing abilities.

Don't know why, but the phrase, "some aquatic tart" popped in my head when I read this.

the last one references the Thing I think. What about the 2 former ones?

Also this meme made me notice the reference to Lovecraft's at the Mountains of Madness. There is a McMurdo Sound, which I now cannot think about without hearing Wayne June's beautiful voice in my head. RIP.

The middle one looks like Starship Troopers.

One is Starship Troopers and the other is from Aliens.

The second one is from starship troopers. Basically without spoiling a lot they got tricked into going there and got cornered.

I'm more into central American rainforests.

All three of these would make great theme parks.

assuming we get to go in knowing what we know from each, and guessing we're joining most likely right before the shit to fan event, prob with little or no time to change anything with little to no rank or power ie (assistant to the part time janitor) . highest chance of survival? prob going with 1 aliens.
