I saw it last weekend on DVD as I'm with you on missing it at the theater. I thought the best part of the movie was it's "open ending." Be ready for AVP2!

Yo!!! I was thinking the same thing! AVP 2 should rock the house!

I'll check with the studio to see if they're going to go through with it.

yep its a pretty good movie!

Nico-T,

I've gotta agree with you. It really isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Much better than Alien IV and Alien III.

Somewhere the franchise got off track. It's going on 25 years of this movie franchise with the two coolest monsters to come out since Godzilla and The Blob.

It's funny but good monsters are like always 30 years apart. First there's Frankenstein, Wolf Man, Dracula, Mummy, Kong, then 25 years later comes The Blob, Godzilla, then 25 years later Alien then a few years later Predator.

We need a new monster but for my money the Alien takes the cake as the scariest monster of all.

Everyone was bashing this flick! but I liked it! Some of the fight scenes were very cool!

I don't think it will win any Oscars, but it was a fun flick!

I thought the movie was awesome. Can't wait for part 2

**Greg B** · 01-23-2005, 08:56 AM

Bucklover, exactly.

I am so surprised that it was technically, very high end. The special effects, and makeup and the direction were all pretty top knotch. Everything was way above average. The only thing that bothered me about it was the lack of character developement. That indeed was cheap. In Alien I & II, and a little bit of III, the writing and direction actually introduced characters of depth so that when the monster showed up you felt the danger and loss and suspense. In Aliens III and IV and AVP the characters were just there to be eaten. No loss, no suspense.

As as said earlier, this wasn't a scary movie. Only one or two human characters were of worth. Yet the Alien and Predator had MORE this go around that built up them as more of an interest. Especially the Predator. The Predator movies are ALL awesome. Predator I and II were just awesome and AVP added more to their story so I can't wait for more sequels.

i thought is was over hyped, the plot blew ass, and they couldve done a hell of alot more with both sides, the effects were ok, but not worth buying my 2 cents

**IRQ0** · 01-23-2005, 09:27 AM

It doesn't come out here until the 25th and I can hardly wait. I have been waiting 15+ years for something like this to happen. THe closest thing before was the 4 part graphic novel from Dark Horse that pitted them together on a remote planet that humans where using as a farming colony. THat was in the early 90's and they alluded to this movie. Of course there have also been rumors about it. Licensing I hear was the biggest problem.
