Alien vs. Predator alert

It looks like this thread is only you RokSki

 

It is, and Break.

Someone has to love "AVP."

 

It's common in ritual sacrifice to take the heart of the victim.

You speak as if I don't already have one.

 

wow, I don't think I've ever seen a thread in which one person had the first seven posts. Welcome to SportsJournalists.com, Rok's personal playground.

 

I think this is a manhood ritual. The humaniod ones, they've been sent here to prove that they're worthy to become adults.

 

I maintain that Hollywood execs blew the chance to do something amazing here -- an eight or 16 villain tournament on film. You had this one, Freddie vs. Jason, and you keep on going with different films featuring bad guys against each other. The winner advances to the next film until eventually the ultimate villain/monster is crowned in the finale.

This would have been huge.

 

That's a great idea. I never thought of that.

This should have been a much larger movie, I agree. And a franchise. Two incredibly popular creatures.

 

If it had been done with the seriousness and tone of "Aliens" or the original "Predator" it would have been much better. It was a bit too campy.

Also, it was annoying that in the trailers you see a horde of aliens going after the Predator at the top of the pyramid, only to realize later that instead of some battle royal, it was just a flashback-type sequence. I wanted to see an all-out war between the two.

Lastly, it really shouldn't have taken place on Earth in what appears to be modern times. It should have been deep in space and if you had to have humans involved (which I guess you kind of have to), it should have been the space marines like in "Aliens."

I definitely think they dropped the ball on this movie.

Hot chick No. 1: Then why bring it?
Hot chick No. 2: Same principle as a condom. I'd rather have one and not need it, then need it and not have one.
