oh and that just looks...weird but who knows maybe it'll work in context

What a load of wank.

And Alien 3 is underrated- It certainly pisses all over 4 and AvP (and most likely this one)

AvP is a travesty and AvP2 will be as bad- see Fist Dirtbox's excellent post as to why.

the point is- the 2 dickheads directing this steaming pile of excrement have still set it in the here and now- rather than the far future which is when it should be set. I don't understand it, you are making sci-fi so you have all of the universe to pick from and what do you come up with? 2007 and fucking K-mart. What a total, utter failure of imagination.

It was crap. I can't bring myself to get rid of it for some reason,

fight on arrival,

fighting for survival,

oy yoy ya, oy ya yoy ya,

oy yoy yoy, ya oy ya oy oy...

Cerberoz- Alien 3 is not the abortion it is made out to be, and Predator 2 is OK- so really it is just the last 2 (although I can still find some love for the first 2/3 of resurrection) that stink.

I can't believe you honestly think this looks promising *shakes head*

and vanchimera- no-one has bitched about childhood raping. This isn't a star wars/ lucash situation. So fuck off.

heh.

adn I love Predator 2, I love the feel an dlook of it, I love the cast, but we can blame all the AVP stuff directly on that movie when they the production designers thought they'd be cute and put in the Ailen skelton as a throwaway shot when Danny Glover is walking through the Predator 's ship

huhuhuhhuh.

it retrospect thinking aobut it, it seems like they had this cool concept of the space pirates or whatever and then to make it into an Alien's film added Winona and Ripley and the ailens

Of course Winston and Giger styles don't match. It was a weird idea to mix the two, but this flick can't possibly be worth than the first, and this picture isn't the worth blend of Alien and Predator that could've been.

Anyway, and like the OP said, it needs better lighting. Without Paul WS Anderson behind the camera it's actually possible.

This could be the gayest thing I've ever seen. "Predalien"...what the fuck...what fifth grader came up with that name? You know what, I hope I'm attacked by this punk-ass creature someday just so I can bitch-slap it and send it back to planet Retardo.

So, what to do then? It was the perfect springboard to launch both of these franchises back out into separate realms, and to do a proper big-name sequel to each one again, separately, with good actors and legitimate stories. Really, how hard could it have been to green-light two separate, big-time movies, and possibly have two newly-successful franchises again? If 'Saw' can still be going, don't tell me that these couldn't be.

Instead, we get another dumb combo movie, which diminshes both parties by mashing them together. Enough of this and it'll get to be like Abbott & Costello--oh, what are those two crazy alien races up to this time? Expect "Alien & Predator's Christmas Vacation" in a couple years.

So I don't get it. Apart from the 'respecting the material' thing, which the viper pit of bastards known as Hollywood never gets, I don't see why they passed up two successful movies for one that's likely mediocre and will only be humbly successful.

"my anal beef with.."

just kidding my actual question is, was there any refrences at all to either Predator movie in AvP? And if the tech that the LA cops were using in Pred 2 were pretty advanced, why is the tech in AvP (and by extenstion AVP:R) regular. There is no continuity, like Anderson cares

Did I just come up with that?

That said, I will not be seeing this movie - and neither should you. Fool me once... Fool me once... If we just keep forking over our money then how will they ever learn?

Then get Chris Cunningham to direct Alien 5.

The predators hunted in packs and were protrayed as less vicious and yet Paul WS Anderson said that they were "older" then the previous ones we saw, yet it doesn't kill a 90lb soaking wet woman, but a younger one could conciveably take out Ah-nold, Jesse Ventura, and Carl Withers, also Danny Glover and Bill Paxton (btw since these 2 universes are realted now, does that mean Bill Paxton's police officer from P2 could be the great blah blah blah grandfather of his marine char. from Aliens?), the got rid of the flying disc for a stupid nija star thingy, the aformentioned lack of blood and limb ripping, the aformentioned atempt at making the female char. more Riply like--Side note: Is Anderson into S&M or is a cross dresser or a woman or something, his movies espically his last ones have all featured strong woman and weak men--end side note--the charterzations sucked, they were all stock char. with no emotional attachemnt, the confined prymird, the other Predators featured more of an open enviroment, the jungle or LA, only the First Alien movie really had a closed atmosphere, Aliens of course was the most open with the whole moon to get through to get to the ship, the love/respect thing the Predator had for the girl, the lack of blood and limb riping, I know I mentioned it before but it pissed me off enough I had to mention it again.

And I hate to keep harping on this but are they going to have the small Predators again? I don't know why that bothers me but they just don't look right unless they're tall.

Think about it. There's only one Hollywood, but the raw number of stupid people grows every single day, which means more net consumers for crap.

Only a massive disaster--where's that asteroid when we need it?--could wipe out enough people to bring this type of filmmaking to a halt.

Perhaps along with the "turn off your cell phone" spots they run before movies like this, they could also run a helpful "please do not reproduce" public service announcement.

Or just pump nerve gas into the theaters.

a side note would the Pitch Black aliens or the Xenomorphs or the Predators win?

crap, i think I just gave Hollywood a new idea

Or something like that.

Cross them some more I say, what the fuck! nothing's sacred anymore Give us Resident Alien V's Predinators where they cross aliens with zombies and attack metal endoskeleton enhanced predators! and give it to Euwe Boll spliced with WPT anderson or whatever they are called!?

Gabriel Gray- you are a complete dipshit, go and infect somewhere else with your odious presence.

You know who has been absent from this- since I bitchslapped him for hypocrisy last week? Our arbiter of taste and all things intellectual- M-O-M. WOnder which hole he is hiding in.

...but if it bleeds... ah, fuck it.
