Alien vs. Predator 2 - Official Movie Thread

[MaulFan]

what i find so funny is that if you watch the behind the scenes for AVP, the producer talked about how he received hundreds of scripts for AVP, and the Anderson one was by far the best one he had read.

yeah whatever.

I'm sure to him it was, and I'm sure to him, the final film was the best thing it could be, the audience just doesn't feel the same.

Looks like Predalien wins that one.

Uhm, it looks like it's a tie. If you look closely, you'll see the pred's wristblades sticking out of the top of the preadlien's head.

Kinda silly of Fox to post such a spoiler as the second picture they release...

Oh yeah, I do see that now. Well, wonder if we just saw the end of the movie?

Hmm, interesting. I can't say that I like the idea of it being a tie between the Hybrid Alien and the Pred. There should only be one winner. That should be the Predator. I think it's still too soon to make any assumptions about the film. All we can do is hope that it turns out to be a decent flick. I highly doubt that it will turn out to be of the same caliber as Predator, Predator 2, Alien, and Aliens. It will be a popcorn flick at best, in my opinion.

Awesome! Thanks for posting that.

So it seems that the Alien genes are always the more dominant ones?

Well, if you look closely, the Predalien does have dreads.

 

[KitFisto]

Well, if you look closely, the Predalien does have dreads.

Yeah, but behavior wise they still blend in with the Alien hive and not the host body's race.

 

[Rogue Trooper]

I remeber reading somewhere i cant remember that there might only be one Predator, which could be cool to see a veteran pred fighting aliens.
Hope the R rating makes it more in line with the original movies.

 

[Darthrazz]

Yeah, but behavior wise they still blend in with the Alien hive and not the host body's race.

It would be real bad ass if the Pred Alien had actually blended with the Predators rather than the hive, that would be an even more lethal killing machine.

That's an understatement! I'm sure the director, writer's, and actors did the best they could, but let's face it they were all B-list material at best. I blame Fox for delivering that garbage, and from the look of things were going to see more of the same from AVP 2. I can guarantee if Fox doesn't release this movie a couple of days in advance for the critics I won't be spending 1 cent of my money to see it.

I think the main problem is that back when Fox made Alien and Aliens, they weren't trying to protect a franchise. Now they see franchises as ways to print money so the numskull executives try to control the production too much, that's what screwed over Fincher and eventually drove the franchise into the ground.

Honestly, if Cameron was ever going to return to the Aliens universe, I'd prefer him to make a Colonial Marines film more then an Aliens sequel. Perhaps once that's started off in it's own direction, people will stop being pissed that there's no Marines in the Alien sequels.

Here's a VERY interesting quote from one of the directors:

What Colin had to say about the Predalien over at AVP Galaxy:

"She has a full predator skull under the cowl just like the original Alien."

"Wait until you see the rest of the body. The level of bio-mechanical detail is the highest even done on these creatures, and it took almost all our pre-production time to sculpt her."

A Pred skull under the cowl!! LOVE IT!!!

 

[screamingmetal]

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Predalien vs. Predator:

Well shi-t, I guess I don't need to go see this in the theater anymore, Way to spoil the movie Fox.
But this might actually be very early in the movie and that might not be the main Pred so they could've got the Predalien out of the way early so the rest of the movie is one remaining Pred against a horde of Aliens... at least I hope that's the case.
Incredibly stupid way to promote your movie Fox.

Ugh... I don't have high hopes for this as a movie anymore. But here's hoping it yeilds some cool creature design like AvP did.

 

[Kuzeh]

I think this movie is going to be great, not Aliens great, but maybe Predator 2 great...so who knows, until I see it I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

 

[Bardoon]

Aww c'mon!!!Let's have the main Predator LIVE for a change...it's kind of getting old when he dies all the time.

I can understand the Predator 1 & 2 Preds being offed but when Scar was killed it was somewhat forced and then we had the rehash of the Predator 2 ending.

Why not have a Predator that actually is successful at getting "blooded" and returns to his clan as a fully accepted member?

This movie can very well turn out that way...but from this recent shot,it certainly looks like it's going to be an even kill and follow the trend of dying Predators.

 

[The Mike]

I hope we just get a Predalien figure from HT.....I also hope it costs less than the Elder Predator 2 geesh that was a lot more than I thought it'd be...

Yeah, I agree.... Why the Hell can't they just have that happen once?

 

[The Dwimmerlaik]

I dont like the design of the Predalien more alien than predator there, no problem against the aliens but why not change the design a bit not only the head an the mouth

 

[galactiboy]

Looks like the PredAlien is a kinda yellowish color... don't really like that. To reminiscent of the horrible Resurrection Alien. Hopefully it looks good in the film.

 

[Fritz]

...There should only be one winner. That should be the Predator...

I totally agree with this. The problem is they don't want to PO all the people that want Alien to win. I have never been a huge Alien fan, but love the Preds.
