AVP 2: Aliens vs Predator

[antiwup]

they should have based the movie on the computer game!

[Plantiumdragon]

that what most most would want but fox want the first avp to take place on earth to keep it somewhat inline with the Predator Movies.

AVP only sucked because they attempted to loosely follow the storyline, but on Earth. Like many comic book/video game movies, you either closely follow the story, or make up a new one to be successful. (for example. Spiderman)

Except the AVP Storyline is based on a completely different planet. Not to mention there were hundreads of predators vs Elephant-like Aliens that pwned their faces.

If talking about the Alien vs Predator Comics then yes they took place on different planets, if your talking about the movie Alien vs Predator then it took place on earth because the person the directed the movie Pual W. S. Anderson also wrote the story for the movie.

The AVP storyline is based on another planet. The Re-hashed Movie Storyline is based on earth. (I didn't know I had to specify I was talking about the real story, thought it was implied with the elephant aliens and the way it was a reply to the quote..)

People don't realize there is really no connection between alien movies and predator movies other than the Alien skull in P2. None of the Predators or Alien Colonies took part in the AVP storyline. Just the same species.

They tried to hollywood up a good story too much. People love AVP because they love Cool-ass Aliens kicking the crap out of eachother, with some humans running around getting bashed in the middle.

Only problem is that Fox would only accept a story for avp if it was on earth and the only story that took place on earth was written by Pual W. S. Anderson who also directed it. The biggest limitation on the film would be Fox force avp to be a pg-13 rated movie instead of an R rated movie.

AVP 2 is supposed to take place in Gunnison. I was here when they did the filming in the bookstore at WSC.

[Plantiumdragon]

Yeah, I can't wait for the movie just to see how much Greg and Collin Strauss as directors improve over what Paul W. S. Anderson. I am some peeved that it couldn't be a space story but if it had to be on earth glad they picked a town in Colorado .

[broncosfanscott]

I liked AVP and would love to see AVP 2. I prefer Predator over Alien. Haven't seen all of the Alien movies and Predator 2 didn't impress me too much.

And there lies the problem. Always watering down **** and i absolutely hate that.

[Plantiumdragon]

thankfully both directors Colin and Greg said that it will be an R rated movie.

I have to disagree with you...

The Alien Series was Awesome.

The first two were great. Alien 3 sucked in its theatrical release although the recent DVD release of the Director's Cut was actually semi-good. Alien 4 could have been really good but they screwed with the original screenplay causing the author to disown it, although I thought it was entertaining if nothing special.

The Two Predator movies were sweet.

I loved the first one but Predator 2 was a piece of crap. I wanted my money back after watching that one.

The Alien vs Predator Comics rocked.

I don't know about the comics but I did really enjoy the first book, although I didn't read the follow-up.

However, the Alien vs Predator movie blew.

I do agree with you on that one... mostly. I didn't think it was completely lacking of redeeming features but I did feel it was very forced and it felt quite incomplete and restrained.

While I don't mind a movie being PG-13 by any means, the fact that all the Alien and Predator movies were all Rated R makes me question why they felt the need to try to expand the audience just a smidge by slapping constraints on themselves. The whole time I watched the movie I felt like they were holding themselves back from a cinematic perspective.

Oh, well. I'll probably still give AvP 2 a chance and see if it improves over the first one.

I am a fan of the Alien and Predator series.

I am also a fan of the Alien vs Predator comic books.

But the Alien vs Predator films are an abomination!!
