I saw Alien VS Predator Movie...

[retroborg]

I saw Alien VS Predator movie last week.

One thing I don't understand is that since the story takes place in the 21st century & the Billionaire Wayland dies in the end of the film (Gets stabed by the Predator), who is the guy we see in the end of Alien 3 that takes place 300 years in the future & is encouraging Ripley to give him the Alien Queen that is inside her?

He said that he was the creator of the Bishop cyborgs, but he had died in the AVP 300 years earlier, so eitehr he was lying & he was just another synthetic or he was cloned like Ripley was in Alien 4.

Confusing.
Not a very got film by the way.

its a crap film, what do you expect?

[Yohji]

I've heard it sucks balls.

[Joobs]

I heard the actor saying for AvP that at the end of alien 3 he was a more advanced bishop.

But i've also heard him/crew say at the alien 3 when he gets hit his ear kinda get ripped off and bleeds and this was to show he was definatly human.

If I remember correctly the last surviving prisoner attacks & hits him on the head with a pipe & then there is blood purring from his head, so it couldn't have been an android. But I could be wrong.

Before I saw the AVP film I thought that somehow Weyland found the secret of prolonged life somewhere in the ancient pyramid. Seeing as he was dying from cancer that would explain his urge to go along with the team to search & his reappearance in Alien 3.
That would have been a cool plot linking, but it left you even more confused instead. It sucked.

But then again isn't the producer of AVP, the same guy who made those **** TV series Xena & Hercules. In those series elements from the Greeko-Roman Mythology & history are greatly butchered in order to make something for the TV.
That would explain how he managed to kill the AVP franchise.

So am i the only one who thought it was awesome?

It was utter crap, cant believe they actually brought it out. It was doomed from the start.

the film was crap.....but that one fight scene with the alien vs pred was worth it all

[retroborg]

I loved Mortal Kombat Movie back in 1995; I thought it was great fun. The fight scene between Johnny Cage Vs Scorpion that takes place, 1st in the woods & then at the Netherworld, was one of the coolest fights I've seen.

The soundtrack was also amazing, which did help a lot & so did the multiple locations which I love in films.
Over all it was a great movie & I don't understand why people hate it so much? MK2 movie wasn't as good but it wasn't bad either. The rest that followed were very bad though.
I'm not a MK fan by the way & never enjoyed the games either. So that’s probably why I enjoyed the 1st 2 films.

Super Mario was a nice movie. I loved the part in the end where Bowser said: "More Mamals" & turned the Mafia guy into an Imp with the energy gun!
That was hilarious!

As for the rest of the films mentioned I didn't like them at all!


I'm thinking about renting Resident Evil 2 & House of the Dead Movies next week.
So tell me people, is it worth spending my hard earned money to even rent this crap? Or should I pass?

i thought it was below average plot was screwed

No your not! Just seeing the thing that is predator and what it does is good enough for me. The "film" doesnt matter so much to me when you got such great creatures battleing it out. What matters to me is that predator stays as predator (not so much of an alien fan), and the film got this right. The "film" in its self was not bad either imo. It certainly wasnt a crap film.

Im hopeing they will do a Predator 3 now (there is talk of this). Back in the jungle doing what he does best

I thought that they were doing AvP2?

[Stewart]

I liked it. Was a good, fun film.

who is the guy we see in the end of Alien 3 that takes place 300 years in the future

He just says he's the designer of the Bishop android. There's no mention of him being called Weyland. Even in the credits he's just called Bishop II.

It could be argued he's a descendant of the original Weyland, and keeps it quiet because Ripley would hardly trust someone called Weyland, would she?

What annoyed me in AvP was that the Predators are supposed to have millenia of experience dealing with Aliens, yet one gets face-hugged and still tries to return to his ship, and the others take him into the ship (and even scan him IIRC) without finding he has a chestburster inside him.

Oh yes, and they kept the queen Alien secured by ... metal chains vulnerable to acid blood!!

And the humans kept working stuff out based on little or no information.

I was really looking forward to AvP. The fight scenes were good, but there weren't enough of them. What should have been an orgy of ET violence involving simple blades and sophisticated weaponry turned into a remarkably weak story where not much really happened. The couple of Alien-on-Predator action scenes seemed to have been thrown in as an afterthought as a concession to the title of the film.

It was an OK film, but to me it was a disappointment. The PC game was better.

[retroborg]

The CPS-2 Beat Em Up AVP by Capcom was also great.
It's what you describe as: "an orgy of ET violence involving simple blades and sophisticated weaponry" that has all of that & more.

AVP2 PC game was awesome, but the 1st game sucked imo.

Can't wait for an AVP3 on PC with Doom3 engine.
That would be the ultimate experience.

I thought the film was quite good, not great, but good.
