Alien vs. Predator 2 Scheduled for 2007

So I felt like punishing myself today. You know, bed of needles, some marmite, slept with a prostitute without a condom... O, and I watched AVP 1 an 2 back to back.

One thing struck me: The first gets the xenomorph quite good, and the second makes a sh** out of them (they look f***ing terrible in AVP2) but doesn't do a bad job of the predator--unlike the first where you have hero shots of what should be something to sh** yourself about.

Don't get me wrong, they're both horrid films, but I find that if you took the xenomorphs from the first and the pred from the second... well, you'd probably have a film twice as good as both films put together--which still isn't something to cheer about, but you know, every hole is a goal.

Now if you excuse me, I'm going to pull out my toenails and cut off my eyelids.

Just for sh**s and giggles.
 
avp2 wasnt horrible the lighting was an issue, it felt too rushed and the people involved were hit and miss with acting. the wolf predator was amazing past the fact that you really didnt get to see him much when he unmasked himself at the end. the predalien should have had more screen time and not just quick shots. but basically the lighting was just too dark

they should make a new avp in a few years and make it as close to the source material as the watchmen directors cut was to the source material but base it off the ryushi original story. thats the way to go and it would be an incredible movie dun right
 
Can't excuse people for accepting mediocrity. It's still one of the worst movies I've seen in a while, that destroys two great franches all at once. Heck, it makes the first one look like Dr. Zchivago.
 
the Alien vs Predator films are just like Resident Evil films - so much potential to make them awesomely bad ass, but in the end it was just a total crap fest

is it really that hard to stick to the source material?
 
I still stand by how I think that this movie is better than AVP 1 even though it is shot in too much darkness at times. The only actual good human character is the semi Ripley knockoff.

Agree. I sat through it a few times back when it was first on cable.. Plus it's rated R, unlike the first one. That's a plus for me because I hate watered down pg-13 violent movies.
