ALIENS! PREDATOR! ALIENS VS. PREDATOR! First still from the sequel!!!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I really want to be excited about an Alien Vs. Predator movie, a movie I've wanted see since before my voice broke. Paul WS Anderson's wankfest shattered my dreams and reading the early script for AVP2 made Anderson's movie look like Ridley Scott's. Although, at least the AVP2 script was so laughably bad, we might have gotten a good comedy out of it. Then I heard the directors who came on board changed the script up. Hopefully it's now a watchable movie and not just tidied up enough so it's just bad and not laughably bad.
The still below (from movie-infos.de and confirmed by AvPGalaxy.com) should have me geeking out, but I can't really muster any emotion over it. What about you?

FUCK YOU FOR LINING YOUR POCKETS WITH OUR MONEY! This should have been great this should have been great this should have been great FUCK!
-
That's... An Alien... And a Predator... Versusing each other all right... ZzzzZZzzzz....
-
Predator is looking small. Bah.
-
really, would you expect anything else?
-
first
-
good god, why oh why is this cool news? we all know this pg-13 shitfest will probably be worse than the last one(as impossible as that would seem). I for one am looking forward to the G rated ash vs. freddy vs. jason that I'm sure was bullshit when they were talking about it way back when
-
My wife still doesn't forgive for dragging her to that in the theater. Nor can I forgive myself, although the climactic battle was almost pretty good. This and Rob Cumming's Halloween:The Butcher Boy Years should be cancelled and the money funneled to David Lynch so he can do Ronnie Rocket before he dies.

and THIS is what colin strause has to say about those that dont like the picture:
On set photo's are never taken from the correct lighting angle because they are working around our motion picture camera, so this will make the photos not look as good as the final movie. They are too front lit, too bright, and might be missing all of the slime on the creatures because the photos are usually taken in-between takes. -
it's 100% without a doubt never ever ever going to be PG-13
-
unless the predator is about to blow the aliens head apart into a million pieces, it just doesn't look as intense as it should.
-
When that Predator took off his mask it looked fucking atrocious.
-
That Alien suit is so f-ing rubbery I think I used it on my dick last night. Uhhhggg. Eat shit, Fox.
-
this will still suck because there will be humans in it. the only way an AvP flick could be interesting or new and different is if they set this on either a world that aliens took over that is devistated or on the predator homeworld. putting some weakass team up between preds and humans will kill this baby. now a fully no word having, subtitles for the preds vs. aliens, that would be the shit. who wouldn't pay to see that?
-
Those those effects tards.

It does look like a comedy.

It does look like a comedy.
-
I'll be happy. I'm not expecting the comic or the game. Just a retread of the first one. But I hope at least they go overboard with it, meaning the language and violence. Might even be watchable then.
-
At least the predator looks less like a 7 foot american footballer who uses steroid and the alien design harks back to Aliens which I have to say was the best of the lot. So lets hope this film rocks half as much as Camerons movie.Although how have they 'changed' the story from what was leaked last year?
-
The movies are ok, but as far as great sci-fi movies go, i don't think they're one of them. And Alien vs. Predator was very hard to sit through half of, which is when i stopped it. So no, i'm not geeking out on that image. At all. lol.
-
Wh-wh-what?!
-
With the Predator in the Rosalind Russell role and the Alien doing a brilliant Cary Grant impersonation.
-
Yawn. How flat-out scary was Alien...especially when the crew had no idea what they were looking for, or how large it was, or where it was hiding. Now your grandma could do an anatomically correct sketch of the Alien. Overexposure equals box office death!
-
AvPINO ! AvPINO ! AvPINO !
-
Directed by Ang Lee
-
... shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. It would honestly take the combination of Cameron, McTiernan, Schwarzenegger and Biehn to even get me to consider watching an Alien vs. Predator movie again.
-
So I'll be watching(downloading actually) this sequel just for her.
The problem with AVP(besides bringing the Alien to Earth in our present time, which is just plain wrong) is that it wanted to be a big movie, which was impossible considering the director, no-name actors and that lame script. Maybe this time, when expectations are much lower, they'll serve up something decent.
@DarthDooku> Aliens is one of the best sequels and action-scifi movies ever made. Period. Also, the first Alien movie came out in the 70's and is still fun to watch, so give it some credit. -
His hands look odd, and I thought the original aliens were smooth-headed, not ridge-backed like this one.
And is his neck too thick, there? Are they changing up the design again? Feh. -
in the desert.
-
damn girl! Why is u so hot?!
-
Shit Sandwich.
-
It looks as chicken-corny as the first Aliens Vs. Predator. Can't they just let good filmmakers make a good movie and stay the hell out of it !??
-
the picture is a still it will look better on film the predator looks awesome and i like the aliens head.
-
That is one FAT ALIEN , shouldn't his throat be further back? or is that a second chin from eating a cow. I hope they don't shake the carmera too much to hide these suits ...You would think these films would be going in the direction of Starship Troopers as in BIG SPACE EPICS ON ALIEN HOMEWORLD instead of Critters/Spaced Invaders SMALL TOWN VS SPACE MONSTERS IN THE WOODS. Sigh...
-
...killing the sense of mystery and awe these creatures once had. ALIEN is the movie that got me interested in being a filmmaker (even more than Star Wars). It makes you feel like you're way out there in deep space with a strange creature that is monstrous yet believable. Now... I've seen too much of the damned thing(s). This makes me feel the way recent episodes of BATTLESTAR GALACTICA do when they give us too much of a glimpse behind the Cylon curtain: the bad guys lose much of their power.
-
1st Micheal Bay then Uwe Boll Now this How does this guy get work. But In all I saw a Guy post on a MB. That he was at the filming and it looked very R rated. but the guy could have been blowing smoke.
-
Now THAT'S a movie I'd watch.
What I don't understand about this whole AVP thing is that there are TONS of movie geeks working in Hollywood right now who grew up on these movies... can't they grab someone TALENTED to put these crapfests together? -
should be forced to sit down and watch people beat their grandmothers with crowbars. I honestly don't think I have ever seen a photoshack image link that didn't just resolve to their front page. Face it, if you post an imageshack link, you're a fucking douchebag.
-
Except for Aliens, the rest of the movies conformed with the head design of the original film. Now this pic suggests a return to the design of the second film.
-
Is better than everything in Andersons PRedator movie, the Pred doesn't look as retarded as the others in his movie and the aliens kinda rubbery there but better...
Well, we can only hope. -
"Alien VS Predator" was a stupid, franchise-ruining, suspension-of-disbelief-shattering concept even at the graphic novel stage. The fact that somebody who owns the rights to the "Alien" property even allowed this abomination to happen is evidence that the film industry, in Hollywood at least, has truly become akin to a dollar bill wedged into a steaming rancid dogshit.
-
*cue mental image of the "Alien" creature jet-skiing over a shark*
-
The alien's right in front of him.
-
It makes me ill thinking about Alien vs Predator. Could things actually get worse than Alien Resurrection? er, yes, quite a lot worse. I know I usually rip the shit out of Whedon but at least he CAN write so there are morsels of merit in Resurrection, unlike the shit of AvP. This sequel is ONLY a moneymaker. When something is made for money and nothing else then it is destined for the toilet. And to think there was once a prospect of a Cameron-penned, Scott-directed final Alien installment. Now that's impossible because the Alien franchise is officially a joke. It was still good after Alien 3 because Fincher went dark and fucked-up (check out the much better extended cut of that on the DVD set if you haven't) and he didn't set out to make the movie where everyone is going to see it because Aliens are 'cool' (i.e. Resurrection and AvP). Bringing Ripley back through cloning was just about acceptable, if only for the part which Whedon must have been phsl at for days where they're supposed to be teaching Ripley how to speak and they say 'fork' and she says 'fuck', it's then that you know she's back. Anyhow...please, NO-ONE GO TO SEE THIS!!!! Then maybe they'll fucking learn.
-
it went right to the image for me...perhaps a little ritalin and a better web browser?
-
the first one, the thing that botehred me the most was the dude finding slight gramatical changes in heiroglyphics. THEY HAVE NO GRAMMAR, THEY'RE PICTOGRAMS!!! "oh no, it doesn't say, only the chosen enter here, it says all must chose to enter here" or whatever bullshit. HOW COULD THAT DISTINCTION BE MADE IN HEIROGLYPHICS?!?!god damn idiots.
-
... because he wouldn't be afraid to make a movie from the POI of a band of Predators going on their hunt, and put all the dialogue in subtitles. No humans required, just Predators and Aliens.
-
man, i was hoping for something with a little more...ooompf. we all know what the alien and predator look like. anyone could've photoshopped that bad boy together. give us something a little more tasty. a little more slime.
-
That's a great idea!
-
bleh
-
Everybody back ! She gonna BLOW!
-
I don't see how this can even be called "ALIENS" vs Predator when the damn ALIENS are changed in some way in every single film. Too bad.
-
simply horrible
-
Tom and Alec seem like great guys in their interviews, and I think they mean well. But they sure have pissed all over the Alien design. Is the Alien in the photo supposed to be the Hybrid Alien from the end of AVP1?
-
I'm curious to know about the head change too. I know it's been speculated the aliens in Aliens were warriors while the ones in Alien, Alien3 etc were drones and that's why they had different heads. I think as long as Sanaa Latham isn't anywhere near this one I'll like it more.
-
This movie is gonna SUCK PIG SHIT. Friggin' Hacks for directors. Straight to video hell is too good for it.
-
is when the foreign guy looks at the moon and tells the chick that in his country they call it a hunter's moon...then randomly they throw they're heads back and laugh. Makes. Absolutely. No. Sense. But for some reason I could not stop laughing in the theatre. That was the only funny part of the movie, the rest was a complete bore.

The alien and predator series are dead and...
by judge dredds dirty undies
Their corpses have been violently raped. Resurrection and AvP have rubbed shit all over both series, I hope this shit bombs big time. And since when does slimb make the creatures look good, In alien 4 they were dripping with goo and looked like giant turds with sharp teeth. Please someone stop the further violation of these characters!
-
--the dog-alien of #3, the aquatic-aliens with fins on their tails later in the series. This one apparently is part prawn. As someone who owns an Alien head mask from the second film, i'm saying this costume head is real different, and not in a good way. But it's true, we rarely get an extended shot on film of the aliens and lighting and camera angle could make or break the believability of the creatures. The makeup/costume creations in all the films were top rate. I remember seeing a streaming video on the web (I think it was then alien maker Gilland's) of a test of an alien suit as shot from inside a warehouse door looking out the door to a full figure alien turning around in place--they had the backwards-bending jointed legs (like a dog or deer) with a support wire from mid back going up out of frame, and it's the best alien on film shot i've ever seen...the shape of the legs made it really different and less like a guy in a suit.
-
It looks like the red laser thing is coming from the predators head and the alien has a weird head.....I don't know why but I think of Wing Commander when I see stuff about this film.
-
just wait and see. I've got a good feeling about this one.
-
it belongs over the left shoulder. everyone knows that.
-
He's the only one who can save it by adapting the Atari Jaguar game!
-
AVP has tons of potential and the first one did not satisfy. I am glad that it made $80 million though, because that allows for others to take another crack at it!
Get it right this time! Make the Predators badass again! No more teaming with stupid girl! -
Just get Cameron or Scott to do ALIEN 5 and leave it at that. Enough with these shitty so-called movies which are just extended video games.

Nobody can deny that its crazy how big of an audience there is for this. The first one sucked but still made $80 million. People love Alien. People love Predator. Period. And Alien vs. Predator is an automatically kickass concept in just about everyone's minds.
It's crazy how long it took for Predator to re-emerge on the big screen. The fandom for that character is enormous...I couldn't believe we didn't get Predator 3 in the 90s despite the disappointing Predator 2. Just the mention of his return in AVP made me buy a ticket. And many others too I'm sure.
People like to position the Alien franchise as better/superior to Predator. Pshhh, whatever. The last two Alien movies before AVP sucked just as hard as Predator 2. Both franchises were already on the rocks when AVP was released. -
Now that I've got that joke out of the way, can we PLEASE turn over the script writing on this franchise to Dark Horse Comics? Lets throw in Star Wars, too, while we're at it.

you will not be able to ignore your curiosity.

by gibsonusa returns
I'll choose being young thank you. Hey, I think i just won!
-
Alien, Aliens, Predator #1 But this AVP thing, yeesh, this has gotta stop until they can figure out a way to do it correctly. Which means they should stop now because that will never happen. Ever.
-
...but it was a god-awful sequel. While I like the story and characters, it was a poor follow-up to the action-packed second movie. And killing off all the characters from Aliens was a dumb-ass way to start the second film. Hell, I always thought they could have at least said "it's too dangerous to revive Kicks and Newt, so we'll leave them in status until the rescue ship arrives." That would have gotten rid of the characters without killing them off. I just wish that the script was taken and made into a non-"Alien" franchise science fiction film.
-
'nuff said.
-
Alien and Predator? A sci-fi series with 4 and 2 movies, respectively, and then a bunch of comics and videogames? This is something you require "smart, adult" opinions on? Grow up. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I happen to think that the AVP premise has promise.
-
then IT WILL SUCK! Aliens and Predators don't belong in isle 3 of Wal-Mart(though some aliens frequent there often), they belong on big dark spaceships and hostile planets tearing each other apart.
-
If you are indeed much older than me, as you imply that you think, then that's sad. I cant imagine my older cousins or co-workers arguing with a younger kid about Alien movies and telling them to shut up. yeah....that's really sad. I wonder if you went to college....
-
Embrace the fact that you both love: Movies, babes and Hot Pockets
-
I feel... completely underwhelmed. It'll take more than this picture to get me excited after the last rapefest that was AVP. And i see by this picture the aliens are now in even less realistic suits than the first AVP movie. Despite the first film being god awful the aliens were very realistic with a blend of cgi and suit but this looks terrible and i know this is just a production photo but my god. the predator's look is more like the first predator film and you can tell the face underneath is more like the original but still... itll take a lot more than that to get me excited about this...
-
Sally Struthers VS Rosie O'Donnell
-
...in the ass of every franchise, why not take it to the next level? Alien vs. Predator vs. Terminator vs. Transformers vs. Spawn vs. TMNT vs. X-Men vs. Superman vs. Star Wars vs. The Matrix vs. King Kong vs. Star Trek vs. Mortal Kombat vs. Godzilla vs. Hobbits and set the whole battle on the the fucking moon and have it blow up at the end. Then put at a minimum 3 X's in the title so everybody knows its EXXXTREME.
-
Just the fact that Michelle Dessler is in this movie is enough to make me see it. Plus, the first film was NOT that bad, seriously.
-
... the more I like the idea of a Gibson-directed AvP without a single human shown in the film. Bring it on! It started as kinda sarcastic, but the thought of this movie is starting to grow on me. Unlike AvP2, which I will not be looking forward to (regardless if I pay to see it or not,) a Mel Gibson-directed AvP I would not only pay to see, I would pay the way for a few friends!
-
...and, maybe Lord, you can let BOLL!!! direct it.
I love my BOLL!!! so much.
-
it's a good idea, but then a bunch of aliens would be protesting the movie saying its racist against two mouthed acid blooded aliens. and the next thing you know mel would be drunk again blaming his problems on the 'shiny h.r. giger-esque' menace.
-
It would be great publicity for the movie though!! But yeah, the Predators in the movie could have subtitles. I have no doubt that it could work with Mel's directing style of recent years.

I'd rather see a sequel to Undisputed...oh...nevermind
by s-mart shopper
-
What should we expect? This *is* the studio that brought us X-Men 3, after all...
-
I heard a quote one time that said the main problem with Alien 3 is that there was an Alien 1 and 2 that it had to measure up to. I tend to think that is correct. It's a fairly flawed film but put up next to "resurrection" it's darn near a masterpiece.
-
I loved the first AVP. Yeah, I know I'm a tasteless unintelligent miserable excuse for a human being because my opinion's different from yours and therefore I don't deserve to express my opinion but I'm going to try out that whole free will thing anyway and see how it goes.
When I first heard about AVP being set in the present and in the arctic I expected it to be terrible. I agree with everyone here that AVP should be set in space in the Aliens timeline. But I was surprised that I actually liked the movie. I'm not saying it was perfect. The characters weren't very memorable. The Predators did look kind of off in a way that I'm not really sure I can describe (The general consensus is that they're too big, but their proportions are actually pretty sound). The movie moved too fast and the only character I really liked who made a point of bringing a gun, died quickly without ever getting to use it. Also the action scenes contained too much shaky camera motions to make it look more intense but really just make it hard to follow.
That said, I still really like the movie. I loved the way it explained the origin of Weyland-Yutani. The aliens looked great and I loved the idea of the hero alien. And it really felt to me like it kept the spirit of the comics and games as well as the movies.
Like I said, it's not perfect but I loved it anyway.
Now when I heard about AVP2 I got excited at the idea of finally getting the movie that we should have got in the first place. Than I heard about the Kmart thing and my heart sank. This sounds like such a generic small town thriller movie filled with a cast of characters ranging through all the different adolescent cliches you can think of. But, then again I could be wrong. The alien films have always hinted at the idea of what would happen if they made it to earth and now maybe we'll finally see. I doubt it but then again I thought I would hate the first one too. -
PG-13 and R don't mean the same thing that they used to. PG-13 movies have been getting closer and closer to R over the last several years. I would wager that if Aliens was released now it would probably be PG-13.
-
with hate at least you feel an emotion. AVP created disappointment which leaves your feelings in limbo. Having potential and not living up to it is a horrible place for a movie like this to be in. AVP2 is doomed and the Aliens teeth are TOO SILVER!
-
I was just thinking as I read through these that for some reason Spawn needed to take on the Aliens, or hell even the Predators. A guy shooting chains out of his chest would fit in perfect in this franchise. And being as we're shooting out chains, throw in Pinhead. PINHEAD GOTTA EAT!
-
and maybe throw a few Terminators in for a real Battle Royale?
-
Yeah, it's pretty weird looking. Not that I really care too much about that. Because James Cameron GREATLY changed the Alien head in Aliens, though I very much doubt that that had anything to do with a deliberate attempt to portray them as Alien Warriors rather than Alien Drones. Mostly because if he was deliberately trying to introduce a new class of Alien, then we should have seen BOTH Alien classes (or "castes" would work better, I think).
So no, the difference in the Alien's appearance between the first and secon movies isn;t an attempt to distinguish the Alien Warriors from the Alien Drones. If that were the case, you'd expect there to be at least a small percetage of Aliens in Aliens that look like the Original Alien. I think James Cameron just changed the design because he thought it looked cooler.
And I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I remember saying that on one of the commentaries on Aliens. I probably am wrong, but that's what I remember.
But if I am right, then I don't have a problem with the look of the Alien's HEAD. James Cameron changed the Aliens head and the movie still turned out great. The movie was so great tat I didn't notice the difference. And I didn't care that there was no logical reason for making the Aliens so different.
But I DO care about the fat neck. Because the fat neck isn't an artistic decision. The neck is fat because there is a human head stuck in it. Same thing as in other Alien movies. So I'm not THAT concerned about it, though I hope they fix it later. Because the Aliens in other movies had human heads stuck in their necks, but I don't recall ever watching Aliens and thinking "damn, that Alien's neck looks too fat." And believe me, I would have noticed because I've literally watched Aliens about 150 times. Yeah, I'm a sad bastard, but I love that movie. -
The Alien series is one of the finer cycles in cinema history. How many other series, especially those ostensibly in the horror genre can claim 4 entries that more or less go without repeating themselves? Also, look at the talent involved. Every single director of an Alien movie has gone on to do Oscar nominated work. I think 3 of the 4 have even won! You know you're in good company when David Fincher is the underachiever of the group. Also, Alien is an excellent science fiction film that played as a legitimate counterpoint to 2001:ASO and Star Wars. Aliens set the template for the modern action epic and say what you will about Alien3, but it has been hugely influential in the detached nihilistic filmmaking style that has become dominant today. Alien Resurrection was...well, I honestly think that everyone involved was trying to do more than cash in (Fox aside).
-
Venom has lips! And baggy chaps! Surfer is too silver! And has pupils! Optimus has flames! Superman's cape is too maroon! Predators are too fat and too gianty-dwarfish! ....... This is why I love/hate you bitches so dearly and why I'm addicted to AICN TB. Damn you, talkbackers! Seriously though, the alien suit in that shot is a "stunt suit" used for action scenes, hence the "fat neck" allowing Gillis's head to fit and the hands with "stuck-together" fingers so they can grip easily without digits being bent into hilariously impossible directions during the struggle. It's true. If you're as sad as I am and have watched every fucking minute of extra material on that mind-boggling Alien Quadrilogy DVD set (not to mention the AvP docs) then there are several moments of behind the scenes footage with guys prepping an action shot and there's ol' fat neck waiting for the call. Seriously, the design of the Aliens is the least thing you need to worry about in this movie. How about fucking K-Mart and a brooding yet sensitive Texas tough guy character with the name "Dallas Howard"? That's some scary shit right there.
-
...you'll have Fox and "Philbrick" in an uproar over those damn AICN Talkbackers. Again. ;^)
-
Has anybody seen the latest Don Murphy video? For a guy who claims to never read AICN, he sure doesn't seem to mind mentioning it in both of these videos so far.http://tinyurl.com/yfoxxc

Hahahahaha, good times, good times...

I was hoping the original Alien Vs Predator was going to be a Midnight Run-style buddy comedy, where the the Alien and the Predator travel cross country by various means of transportation. Imagine my disappointment when I discovered it was a mediocre action film! Where was the hilarious De Niro/Grodin comical interplay between Alien and Predator? Why was the Alien not pestering the Predator about his smoking? Also, why did neither of them threaten to stuff the other in a sack and beat him with a rubber hose? So many missed opportunities.Oh, well. At least I have this sequel to look forward to now. I am sure these talented film makers will not make the same mistake twice. If I'm lucky, maybe they'll get Bruce Campbell to guest star as special agent Alonzo Moseley.
-
Darth Vader has jazz hands!
-
Did you do the Litmus Configuration?
-
I love that film. If nothing else comes from this Alien Vs Predator 2 situation, it has at least reminded me, in a roundabout way, that Midnight Run is great. Chances are, that's the best I'm going to get.P.S. Congratulations to you, sir, for climing all the way to the top of the Alien Quadridoodadogy DVD mountain. My hat is off to you. I gave up somewhere during Alien 3.
-
No, congratulations to YOU for recognizing the greatness of Midnight Run, one of the few near perfect films of all time. As for anyone who disagrees... "See this phone? I'm gonna pick this phone up and bury it in your head."
-
Does'nt instill much confidence that we'll see something new. If only they'd reboot the franchaise and get Scott to visit the Alien homeworld or 'Iron Jim' to go all out on a full-on Earth War. This just reeks, and it aint even past the starting blocks. I just hope that the new script has been punched up beyond just another variation on '10 little indians'. As it it stands just looks like a by the numbers shill to wring out a last few bucks from an ever diminishing franchaise.
-
Remember that, and they said "Oh it was a very early draft and things have changed". Every single main point from that script review was in the final movie I saw. It doesn't sound like they made any changes to this script either.
Also. Remember the back story on Alien Vs Predator with the Aztec's or whoever they where worshipping the Predator's as gods? Why not have just made that as the entire first movie? An ancient civilization. Have the rituals and have them completely over run. It could have started off real slow and arty with the primitives and then build in the Alien/Predator elements. -
'I wanna know what happened to the goddam plane!'To Rant Breath - if they're not going to go with the buddy comedy angle for AVP2, I like your satire idea. Instead of trying for cool action sequences, maybe the film should be an hour and a half of an Alien and a Predator squabbling and fighting like school kids in a convenience store. They'll kick each other in the shins, maybe one gets the other in a headlock, one of them is bound to say 'not in the balls!' at some point, salty snack treats will be falling all over the floor. I think I would enjoy watching that.
-
Why even bother with this movie? "AvP" killed 2 franchises with 1 stone, cant they just leave well alone? This is STILL set in the present, not the future. Give people what they want: Aliens v Predators v The Marines From "Aliens".
-
Years ago. These franchises are dead to me. I have other things to look forward to now.
-
Bay's Optimus Prime still looks 5 millions times more shit than this. The aliens in this film will be obscured by darkness you'll hardly be able to see the fat neck or odd head shapes.
-
DEAD TO ME YOU HEAR!!!
A great sequel would be if baby Alien wants to attend a beauty pagent. Little Miss Intestine Muncher we will call it. And the Predator picks up the Marines and the Alien spawn, and they all drive off in a VW van, finding themselves and growing on the way. There will be a hilarious moment, when Marshall Bravestar stops them, and upon finding gay porn, winks at the Predator and lets them go on their way. It will win awards and everything. I want to cry, its so beautiful. -
The first one sucked ! Noone who has eny love for the alien or predator movies can deny that.Im glad there`s gonna be a sequel cause it has to be better than AVP1.Let`s hope there is no wannabe ripley girls running along side a predator in slow motion....
-
Have him play Dutch's love child.
Creatures only go so far. You need a human in the mix. The bitch from Love and Basketball, kinda sucked. -
The movie delivered on it's promise. I was promised Aliens fighting Predators. I got it. The DVD now sits proudly on my DVD shelf.
-
with no humans and subtitles! Discovery channel meets alien vs predator! fucking bring that shit on, Fox, you morons!
-
It was a novella type thingy with some great art and it appeared in the Aliens comics - basically about a team of professional bug hunters who go around destroying alien nests in a future where the aliens have spread across the galaxy. Great characters, especially an armoured plated psycho with bazookas for arms called 'shitkicker' who basically kills everything in his way - aliens, people, cute bunnies - he don't give a fuck. That would make a great movie. This AVP shit has got to stop.
-
Aliens vs ET. It would last 2 seconds then we could all go home.

It's PG-13 all the way, fatherfucks! Kids seeing the first movie is where the BO money came from, ass-cheese lovers.
-
I just can't care anymore.....after the crap which was AvP 1 I refuse to feel anything until I have seen a full trailer.
-
I got really excited a long time ago about AvP, i'm not making the same mistake twice.
-
Man I can't wait to see that, oh hold on, didn't somone screw up that franchise before it started too?
-
a sequel in the hands of Paul "Writes Shit" Anderson will always blow
-
Just like in the Dark Horse series. The Yautja don't hunt Aliens and humans on the same hunt; the Hard Meat (Aliens) are the prey, and the young Predators can use every weapon they've got. But the Soft Meat are mere distractions, and it's the job of the Hunt Master to train young Predators to use stealth only. Much better setup. Why? Well, to quote Broken Tusk: "Humans are clever, but have no honor."
-
Never thought someone would use that combo of, um, name-calling. The Golden Globe goes to...performingmonkey! Display that on your mantle with pride!
-
....you got your alien in my predator...you got your predator in my alien...hey wait a min!
-
... over another AVP movie.
-
He'll end up short an arm from the acid burns. I'm completely unenthused by this, I think that after 20 years of watching both series of films, playing the computer games and reading the comics and novelisations I just don't feel theres any mystery left to them. Forget AVP what we really need is a Predator III
-
with that anal rape?This crap is not remotely associated with the original classic Alien. I can't believe the first one made enough money to warrant a second painful movie watching experience.
-
...can burn a hole in the Alien's rubber suit? What a steaming pile of feces.
-
Wait until you see the scene where the Predator flees from the Alien on a child's tricycle. It's bad enough they have a Predator on a trike at all, but why did he have to keep ringing the bell?
-
I hate to be negative but the only way I can explain the sheer awfullness of that suit is that the predator is fighting someone in a halloween costume and a real alien will swoop in and kill them both. How FOX has neutered the most beautiful and dangerous alien creation and turned it into a laughing stock is surely the sadest story in modern cinema. It really is very simple, bring back the original desiner, Geiger, and get a decent director, it isn't rocket science. That ribbed dildo alien looks like my dick :(
-
Yeah, "Man In Suit", big time! Looka that rubber!
Make a good Halloween costume though. I watched about 5 minutes of AVP1 and vowed I would never finish it. It would take a pot of gold to make me watch 2. -
Answer:The last one. If this gets a wide release, it will maybe bring in $30 million. AVP is such a notoriously horrible movie, nobody is going to pay to see this thing. I couldn't even watch the first one for free on cable, why would I pay to see a movie I would most likely walk out of? Why would YOU pay to see this? If you pay to see this, you probably also pay hookers to kick you in the balls.
-
Alien says something bad about Predator's mom. Predator grabs Alien by neck. Predator shoots Alien in face. Acid splatters and melts off Predator's arm. That's pretty much it.
-
I liked taintyourwagon's idea: no humans. Plus, they should get Mel Gibson to direct it and have the dialogue be in some ancient alien language. How the filmmakers would translate it into English for the subtitles, I don't know. That's what them there scientist types are for. Bring on AVP2! Yee Haw!
-
Cant you all at least wait till the movie is out before you all start bitching.
-
MOCKERY!!!
-
Alien Resurrection, AVP, AVP 2 = utter shit
-
I support anybody's right to put out a movie, and anyone who likes it has the right to go enjoy it on the big screen. But enough of the Alien and Predator crap! OVERKILL!! Know when to say when, boys!
-
...is the only way to go. But that's way too conceptual. It'll never happen.
Had the Predators looked like tap dancing penguins then maybe they'd make it.
I'd like to see Dutch and Ripley together kicking some ass too, if they HAVE to have humans. -
Not that a Mel Gibson-directed AVP sequel will ever be made, but if it happens, you are all my witnesses! I came up with the idea first!!
-
on this site and they pedanticise over the tiniest little thing. It gets tired.
-
Can you even "pedaticise"? Isn't pedantic an adjective? Am I being pedantic? Awwww crap! I'm sleepy...
-
as a buddy flick it was awesome!!! I mean damn people! Think about it! Expressionless unknown actor buddies up with giant lizard-man with dreds to fight crime...er...uh...slimy monster bugs. This has kick ass written all over it!!! Consequences schmonsequences!! as long as I'm RICH!!!!!!
-
so this is what it all became then. cheesy aliens and cheesy predators, on screen and thats pretty much it.
-
but instead just focus on the human stories, after all, that's what you want to see when you watch these movies. Maybe have a young son and dad go and pick out a car, perhaps yellow, but not a bug.
-
......over a jetski. Someones got to jump over them sharks....
-
i mean it won't be but wouldn't it be really cool if it was actually amazing.
-
they gotta make it fresh and interesting, change it up a little. And a wise crackin predator is the way to go.
-
I didn't even bother watching the first AvP. I have no hope for this one. They should just let these movies die and be forgotten so that when I achieve my filmmaking goals, I'll be able to bring an AvP to the screen that'll kick everyone's ass. Even Scott, Cameron and McTiernan will be like, "holy shit, you are a God."
-
Toss in the Borg and Spiderman and you've got yourself a SHOW, by golly!
And Klingons - always gotta have Klingons. -
It ain't over til it's over...
-
Hey, Alien Resurrection is a pretty good movie for the first two thirds. Falls apart when they hit the big pink baby.
Can't hate any movie with Brad Dourif as an insane scientist.
"You are a beautiful, beautiful, butterfly."
But yeah, AvP has had it's novelty run. Make Alien 5. With a good director. I like the Mel Gibson idea. -
... if you've just gotta make a VS movie.
Seriously.
Could be a very twisted movie. -

Good call, KielerKai, we definitely want Predator 3!
by duncandisorderly
predator 3 would be awesome! They could even make it modern day and set it in Iraq... hmmm, there's a thought...
-
"You are one ugly muddafucka!"
-
" now thats a knife!"
-
Now find four wrestlers. I've done my share of the work.

Vinny's got to eat.

AVP was so horrible for me that it soured my feelings about Aliens AND Predators. Seriously, Paul "Weak Sauce" Anderson, as much as he wanted to do the right thing, really ruined the entire universe for both franchises.
What the fuck was up with him introducing Predators as godlike rulers of Earth thousands of years ago? Aside from being a stupid, overblown, shithead idea, it also absolutely shatters the mythology put forth in the previous Predator films. So many other avenues could've been explored, so many other dramas and harrowing experiences. But NOOOO! Weak Sauce decided he had to put his geeky, bullshit, PG-13 stamp on both franchises at once, thus ruining any future Alien or Predator movies for me.
I agree with Quint. This image gives me no emotion at all. -
... Gary Busey vs Nick Nolte. You all know this to be true.
-
NO ONE has mentioned the director in this whole talkback. Wanta know? 2 cammo wearing a-hole geeks who never made a movie before. EVER. Brothers with a cut rate CG boutique who got the gig cause theyre doin the FX for CHEAP. Can they tell a story to save their life? The studio doesnt give a shit. They'll just count on the lemmings to pay their tenner to watch anything called AvP. Fkn shite gobsmackers.
-
I think people stopped caring after the first AvP. I know I did. Unless Mel Gibson seriously considers directing a human-less AvP movie, I will probably never really get excited again for an AvP movie. And with that thought, I will probably STILL be at the theater on opening night for AvP 2. Sad, I know.
-
SPREAD THE WORD!
-
Bite me
-
Alien vs. Predator....on Endor!!
-
Cranky! Look it the size of that one!
-
Don't you mean "Crikey" just pillow talk?
-
and right now I mean "crap", as in aw crap, can't believe I wrote cranky. I am a bit cranky this morning since I actually do have to do work.
-
"Can't really muster any emotion" over the picture and/or news? That would certainly explain the six (count 'em!) exclamation points in the article headline. I saw that and had to click on it because I thought, "How can anyone be this excited over AVP2 news?"
-
are somewhere between 'not likely' and 'no way in freaking hell!!'. Seriously...as much as the AvP idea ,pre-Anderson atrocity, has pure geek merit, Weaver said it best...when she was asked if she liked to be involved..without even reading a script she said it sounded "Dreadful". And AvP pretty much raped the pooch forever...even a "re-imaginging" is bound to be tainted. OH snap! I used "taint" in a sentence!!! Awesome!
-
... it will NOT be too silver!
-
I can deal with human characters, as long as thier interesting ala Alien, Aliens, Predator, even in Predator 2, Alien 3 and Alien Ressurrection, I found a a couple characters interesting, but A vs P, nada one!

so be gratefull for small mercies
-
You know quite fucking well that these movies are destroying both franchises, and are also likely preventing Scott from doing the sequel he wants to do.
How you could gush about the last piece of shit and give this one the time of day is astounding to me! You should be ashamed of yourself. Give this movie the amount of attention it deserves...fuck all! -
TMNT vs. Alien vs. Predator! Fuck yeah!
-
it can be done...just need the right kind of suits to ink their side of the deal.
All I pray is one action fucking movie involving Shatner and a shitload of curse words and, well, a shitload of action and hot babes.
Fuck this AVP 2 bullcrap. -
At the very least there's a chance we could see Reiko Aylesworth get naked. -
Being a fan of Aliens and Predator both, I loved Alien, Aliens. Predator was also a favorite, Predator 2 was also good. Alien 3, I hated it. It ruined it for me. At the end of Aliens, the queen detached her egg sac and chased Ripley and Newt to the platform. She got aboard the ship. When did she have time too run into the sleeping chambers to deposit her egg? And if there was another Alien onboard the Suluco, how the hell did it get there? It was a stupid beginning and when I saw it, I knew the movie was going to suck ass. I also hated Resurrection. The special effects were garbage. They made the eggs look like crap. They would pulse, open, and close as if the eggs themselves were alive looking like muppet eggs. The story sucked ass. Honestly, why not let Ripley just die and move onto a different plot. And I don’t even want to talk about the Ripley/Baby Alien garbage. AVP also sucked. Antarctica? I WANT OUTER SPACE! If you were going to put Aliens on Earth, make them overrun it. I thought the books were good, they should of used that instead of this thrown together piece of crap. PG-13!? This pissed me off the most. I get more blood and gore from the SCI-FI channel than this shit.
Looking at the picture, I am glad they decided to use the Alien from Aliens. And yes, they are Warrior Aliens, that’s why they are different looking. The only thing that pisses me off about this is THEY ARE ON EARTH AGAIN WTF! We need OUTER SPACE! I still want to see the Predator planet. I still want to see what happened to the Alien from the first alien movie that crash landed on LV-426 carrying the alien eggs. I want blood, guts, sneaky aliens, bad ass predators. GET IT RIGHT YOU IDIOTS. Read what the fans want and run with it. Your ideas blow ass. Money isn’t everything. Seriouslly I would of rather watched Cedrick the Entertainers “The Cleaner” than a screwed up, money grubbing AVP2.

Made you look...More garbage being made. Hip-hip-hooray.
