CCP Atropos C C P	Posted - 2008.03.30 01:46:00 - [1] Who has seen it and what did you think? Being an avid AVP fan from it's comic book days, I was hoping for more, but I didn't have high hopes after the first AVP movie. Needless to say, this failed to deliver again, but was at least more entertaining than the first one

SoftRevolution Complicity.	Posted - 2008.03.30 02:28:00 - [7] When did the comic book come out? I remember having the comics back in the early 90s. I think it was the same year as Alien 3 and possibly even before that film came out so it was still fairly fresh. Since then I think they've pretty much wrung every possible variation of eggs, facehuggers, chestbursters, aliens tongues going through heads, predators taking people's heads as trophy's etc. etc. out of the series till there's just nothing left to do with any of it but rehash stuff that's already been done four times already. Alien 3 was borderline and Alien 4 was chuffing horrible. Not the best material to make a film that doesn't suck out of I think. EVE RELATED CONTENT
Jameroz Art of War	Posted - 2008.03.30 02:32:00 - [8] I actually liked the first one more. Maybe it's because I'm a tech freak and loved the whole maze thing. The second one didn't really have anything new and intresting in it.
Bosie Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2008.03.30 02:53:00 - [9] It came across as a poor remake of Aliens but set on Earth. "There is a forgotten, nay almost forbidden word, which means more to me than any other. That word is ENGLAND

Stephen HB Mystical Knights Legionnaire Services Ltd.	Posted - 2008.03.30 05:51:00 - [12] Is it just me or did the predator's 'Alien' vision get a major downgrade from AvP to Requiem? In the first one it was detailed, could cycle through modes (to e.g. see unhatched facehuggers in their eggs or chestbursters prior to eruption) and was just generally awesome. In this second movie it's a blurry, washed out green-yellow mess, it's a wonder it could hit the side of an alien coloured barn with it's plasma caster. Note: special mode to track facehugger slime = very cool. ---------- Guide to character creation by Akita T
Multras D00M. Triumvirate.	Posted - 2008.03.30 06:29:00 - [13] Didnt take place in the future so I didn't give a **** about it. And the comics ruled. Thanks to EVE Art Store for the sig.
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2008.03.30 06:44:00 - [14] The one and only thing which annoyed me to no end was the whole "oh, look, we can get from facehugger to full-grown xenomorph in under 60 seconds" jig. I mean, *COME ON !* But, IF you could ignore that part (pretty hard to do, really, but, meh, whatever, I've had worse "suspension of disbelief" attempts), and if you could also "ignore" you have seen the rest of the Alien/Predator movies altogether ("continuity breaks" galore), the rest was pretty much enjoyable, more than the first one. I especially liked the whole "(almost) everybody dies" approach. 1\|2\|3\|4\|5.
Kyanzes	Posted - 2008.03.30 07:10:00 - [15] Edited by: Kyanzes on 30/03/2008 07:12:50 I have yet to see a movie that could replace Aliens. This one couldn't even replace the first instalment of the AvP series. AvP2 has a pretty shallow story with unimportant characters that you love to see inner-jawed by aliens and impaled by the predator. Also, aliens half as impressive when they are out in the wild, and this movie lacked closed places. The military acted as if they weren't even there. A few shots and pretty much everyone was alrady dead. Military hardware mustered in this movie was highly unimpressive save for the bomb that finally wasted that unlovable sheriff and his lackeys. Then a few teenagers with no place to make love suddenly turn into fierce warriors and start to pwn. Get out of here! They turned the Alien franchise into Fun Factory. Hint for directors: when in doubt make sure you don't do anything the same way James Cameron did because your movie would be too good for the masses. Here's my opinion of the movie. --------------------------------------------- GET TO THE CHOPPA!!! The early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
Kyguard	Posted - 2008.03.30 08:49:00 - [16] Yeah it sucked, the alien on predator action wasn't even that good, not to mention the chiildplay storyline. - Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.
Gneeznow SniggWaffe	Posted - 2008.03.30 09:46:00 - [17] I thought AvP2 was okay, worth watching once, But i remember the comics being much darker
Leferati	Posted - 2008.03.30 11:27:00 - [18] it's no better than a tv movie and even then that's making it sound good
Great Artista	Posted - 2008.03.30 11:40:00 - [19] What the hell? Can't people make movies without the ****in' annoying teen romances, are they mandatory these days or what? _______ ◕◡◕
DanjSmith	Posted - 2008.03.30 11:52:00 - [20] I thought it was alright, watched it not expecting a masterpiece but a fairly mindless action film, which is basically what it is. Shame that it went from the first one having 2 out of the 3 preds being total wusses, now in this one all but one alien (the pred-alien) being wussy and basically in it for cannon fodder. Surely can't be that hard to make both sides seem as menacing as in the origional films can it?
Xanos Blackpaw	Posted - 2008.03.30 12:17:00 - [21] i'm thinking of going to see it...do it got: 1) lots of blood? 2) giant black bug like things that eat people? 3) big predators that stabb people with claws? 4) space ships? 5) boobies? Playing minmatar is "like going down a flight of stairs in a office chair firing an Uzi".

In the event that you do see it you will wish you hadn't. This kind of comment has got to rank as the dumbest and most useless one on the internet regarding opinions on movies. How annoying to read these at the Internet Movie Database IMDB, but really also awkward anywhere. Statements like "stay away from it" should be reserved for "Chairman of the board". ^^
Xen Gin Universal Mining Inc Forged Dominion	Posted - 2008.03.30 13:19:00 - [23] Edited by: Xen Gin on 30/03/2008 13:19:55 It was OK as a bit of entertainment, but it does absolutely nothing for the genre. With the original films, they made them as swearing and gory as possible, nowadays they scale it back to 15+ to target a wider audience which means the film suffers as a whole. Also the over use of CGI stretches the budget and the CGI quality is also reduced, because so many scenes have to be rendered.

CCP Atropos	Posted - 2008.03.30 13:38:00 - [24] I found it funny that the Aliens killed willy nilly, and the movie didn't detract from killing off otherwise generally accepted 'untouchable' characters. This includes children, love interests, preganant mothers and their unborn babies, etc. Which leads me onto another point; since when has an Alien had the capability of impregnating someone. Thats what the facehuggers were for. I understand that it's a shallow alternate version of the AVP universe, but it simply takes too many liberties with the existing Alien story. Furthermore, the Aliens seemed ridiculously subpar in this. In previous movies, they were violent killers, stronger, faster, and more resilient than anything encountered to date. In this, they're wimpy, only filled with acid when the movie needs it, and prone to falling over dead after a single gun shot. I was hoping that the movie was going to redeem the audio/visual interpretation of the franchise, but I fear it's done nothing but remind me that Hollywood bastardises almost every previously existing franchise it gets hold of.

Patch86	Posted - 2008.03.30 22:58:00 - [25] Better than AVP1, but still awful. In fact, this actually makes it worse. I mean, the first one was so bad that it had a sort of cheesy, mockable fun about it's awfulness that made it fairly enjoyable to sit through. This one was just good enough not to be fun, while still being a complete failure as a horror/action/thriller film. Plus, the whole "Predalien" thing was done pretty terribly. Being vaguely acquainted with the comics and video games, I knew a little about the concept already...and the film just did it badly. It was basically a bigger, slower alien, right? Well don't we already have those (from previous media) from the human-alien strain? Also, the impregnating women thing made absolutely no sense whatsoever, and the fact that a single unarmed Predator (remember, the first Predator ever seen was successfully beaten to a pulp by Arnie in the original film, once unarmed) could kill it (and a myriad of other aliens) just seemed stupid. Not to mention the other continuity problems: variable acid (sometimes it was strong enough to melt an entire human arm in 20 seconds, sometimes it didn't seem to be there at all...), instant aliens (2 hours from egg to adult), no queen or other similar canon alien behaviour (or was that supposed to be a "Predqueen" or something?), aliens that sometimes die from 2 gunshot wounds and sometimes survive being minced to pieces, a "military response" that consisted of about 15 men who died in like 3 minutes, and a Predator who seems driven by distinctly un-Predator-like emotions (revenge? desire to control an alien outbreak? having a daytrip?). ------ Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.

We wanted more preds!! more Aliens / better aliens!! more hives darker scaryer like alien 1.. more Cowbell
Surfin's PlunderBunny	Posted - 2008.03.31 06:34:00 - [29] Originally by: Patch86 Predator who seems driven by distinctly un-Predator-like emotions (revenge? desire to control an alien outbreak? having a daytrip?). I can answer this one... the predator ship wasn't meant to crash and release the aliens, so he was on a mission to destroy all the aliens and every possible host. Also I'm pretty sure him and the Predator in the ship were of the same clan and he had to save face ------------------Sig-------------------------- J.

The only reason Arnie lived was the Predator made one mistake and had a freakin part of a tree dropped on its head. I found Avp2 Enjoyable and frustrating to watch. It had good things but, they did get shadowed by the really stupid things like the dorky teen romance. The thing I still don't get about the AvP movies, is that pretty much every single Fan of the idea of AvP movies. Wants them in the freaking future with Colonial Space Marines, predators, Aliens, Weyland-Yutani installations and aliens running amok, predators killing willy nilly and the Marines shooting first asking questions later. So why did they decide to put the franchise in modern times and start completely screwing with the established alien lifecycle? Hell if they had just made the PC Avp2 game into a movie it would of kicked so much more *** then the two movies we've gotten.

J'Mkarr Soban Proxenetae Invicti	Posted - 2008.03.31 14:34:00 - [40] If you take the whole story series over the long term, I like them all. The special edition of Alien 4 was better than the non, and I liked the story. But for AvP2, my god, how awful. It was almost a catalogue of previous scenes throughout the two stories that were successful. The only good bit was forwarding the Weyland/Yutani Corp story, and even that was horrendously crowbarred on at the end. -- These are my personal views and in no way represent the views of Proxenetae Invicti, which maintains a neutral stance stemming from the strong ethics demanded of its work.

The only reason Arnie lived was the Predator made one mistake and had a freakin part of a tree dropped on its head. Ah, but Arnie still won. He survived a direct attack by a Predator, tricked it with a (rather feeble) trap, then killed it. Tell me, do you think an unarmed Arnie could have/should have been able to beat that Predalien in a fist-fight? Or even come close? Or simply not have his head ripped off with a single tail-flick? He wouldn't have stood a chance- and he survived fist-fighting a Predator. Thus, the Predator should not have been able to punch out the Predalien. Beat it with the aid of cloaking devices, plasma cannons, throwing blades, harpoon guns, huge nets and massive spears, yes. Bare hands? No. ------ Originally by: Dark Shikari The problem with killing Jesus is he always just respawns 3 days later anyways.
Jas Dakarii	Posted - 2008.03.31 17:28:00 - [43] So your saying all predators are equal and the same. Just because you trick a elephant to walk off a cliff once does that mean the elephant is physically feeble? Or does it just mean it got tricked that one time? That tree trunk that got dropped on the predator had alot of mass, and hit him directly in his unguarded head. The fact that it didn't kill him goes to say something about the predators toughness considering that same tree trunk would of killed any human easily.

Comics > Games > Movies Then: Aliens > Predator > Alien 3 > Alien > Predator 2 > AVP 2 > AVP > Alien Resurrection wait a second why does no1 like Alien Resurrection I thought that was ok.. much better then alien 1... Really? Why? Alien was a pretty spooky "haunted house in space" movie with a genuinely disconcerting monster (assuming you haven't seen a chestburster jumping out of someone's chest a hojillion tims), by a pretty decent director. I read that Giger's original design for the egg just had two lips Alien Resurrection was pretty much just a **ty rehash of Aliens with some 90's paranoia about GM thrown in. As for the Predator's motivation - they're releasing eggs for sport not to cause a full scale infection. They're about as chuffed at the prospect of an outbreak as we are. They consider places they intentionally release the eggs to be like game reserves and prefer isolated spots. I think that's how it was in the comics anyway. EVE RELATED CONTENT**

No, I'm just saying: Predalien = massive armour plated acid filled killing machine with massive bladed tale, huge bite, and giant razor sharp claws. Predator = very strong man-shaped thing in a suit, one of which struggled when brawling with Arnie. Arnie = Austrian guy with none of the above. It's like saying "I lost a fight with some guy the other day. I was totally winning for most of it, but he had me at the end." and then for your next trick go and wrestle an adult Siberian Tiger. It's not to say you can't win, just that based on your past record, winning would be a bit shocking. And to be frank, it's out of character with the AvP universe. The beauty of the Predators in the fiction is their technology, and their better-than-human physique. They're not meant to be able to fist-fight with an alien. Its stupid. Aliens are supposed to be the uber-strong killing machines, Predators are supposed to be the honour bound pseudo-samurai Big Game Hunters, and humans are supposed to be...well, massive underdogs, I suppose.

Basileus Deep Core Mining Inc.	Posted - 2008.03.31 19:00:00 - [46] AVP II sucked monkey juice. That film is nowt more than a combination of cliches from the previous alien films, adding nothing new whatsoever. An utter, utter waste of time that film. It's about time Hollywood came up with something with at least a hint of originality.
Zilkin	Posted - 2008.03.31 19:20:00 - [47] Was huge disappointment for me. Horrible acting, absolutely horrible plot, poor special effects and still saving on those by having so little light in most scenes, etc. And I actually enjoyed watching the first movie.

It's just another example of how the film's director missed the point. I think you need to watch the fight with Arnie again, the predator did not struggle with him at all. He was literally pounding arnie to dust. He only lost because of the rope-a-dope trap. Predaliens like all other strains take genetic qualities from their host. Hence the predalien as you say would be big, strong, smart and lethal. But that doesn't mean it was inordinatly stronger then a Predator. And aliens are not really 'armor' plated, their exoskeleton hardly makes them impervious. Tougher then human skin most definatly. The fact the pred alien was bigger then most drones would also indicate it has less agility then the average alien. I'm not saying the predator was suppose to win hands down, just saying that unarmed the odds are not stacked extremely against him. I will say that the Predalien vs Predator fight in the movie was abit anti-climatic. Though what actually ****ed me off the most about that movie was that dorky love sick teen, after screwing the predator out of its advantage vs the aliens gets a fricken Tail through his chest and lives.... He should of been dead in minutes from a wound like that.
NeoNeTiC	Posted - 2008.03.31 21:58:00 - [49] Before I descent to the currenlty present nerd-ism in this thread by telling people why Alien X was superior to Alien Y I better make it relatively short: AvP2 (the movie) was a weak attempt to *** out two licensed universes in one violent overture. It had a funny trailer, though. Alien 1-3 were good. (Don't you even dare mentioning Ressurection!) [Ripley has tried in vain to disengage the Nostromo's self-destruct] Ripley: Mother! I've turned the cooling unit back on. Mother! Mother: The ship will automatically destruct in "T" minus five minutes. Ripley: You... ***! [smashes computer monitor with flamethrower] Predator was good. Poncho: You're bleeding, man. Blain: I ain't got time to bleed. [Poncho shoots a bunch of grenades up to the top of the cliff] Poncho: You got time to duck? AvP (the games) were good. The AvP movies on the other hand sucked. Haven't read the comics or books, can't comment on them. I wonder why game-adaptation movies always fail so hard whilst games set in two combined movie-universes can actually be good? tl;dr: AvP2 (the movie) sucked.

Ah, now thats an easy one. The games were awesome because you could play as either of two of the coolest, most iconic alien antagonists in film history (plus some cool space marines with massive guns and stuff). It had fun gameplay, was set on a creepy alien planet, and had lots of nervy conspiracy stuff. The films were bad because you dont get to play as two of the coolest aliens ever (plus space marines), there was no fun gameplay, no cool alien planet, and no nervy conspiracy. Bad script and bad acting doesn't help. ------ Originally by: Dark Shikari The problem with killing Jesus is he always just respawns 3 days later anyways.
Jonny Lumi	Posted - 2008.03.31 22:52:00 - [51] Originally by: SoftRevolution I read that Giger's original design for the egg just had two lips Having seen lots of Giger's work, I think that must be true. But back to topic. I think first AvP was still lot better than the second one. Generally both suck, yes, but I enjoyed more watching the people run in ancient temple, than in some boring city. And as someone already said, what's the thing with the crap teenage romances? Why oh why? Aargh. Then again, I'm only commenting the movies, since i've never seen the original comic books. -- Please visit your user settings to re-enable images.

XenoPagan Ministry of War	Posted - 2008.04.01 10:52:00 - [53] being ye olde xenomorph fan, I must say that I quite liked some parts of AvP2, it had some kicks and twists that AvP didn't had. but yeah, it failed horribly in general. like one pilot pointed out, I don't get it either why oh why isn't AvP "franchise" setting in the future where it belongs? give us marines, predators and swarms of aliens. not again a typical smalltown (/temple) setting. there were lots of good comic-book stories in AvP world, at least use them. PS. I'm one of those weird people who liked Alien: Resurrection. Aliens still holds first prize in my book though
