    Good to see they're not pulling any punches on this one. The moment the kid and his father got facehugged was when I knew they weren't zarking around.

    I'm not getting sound with this for some reason.

    *edit* And as soon as I posted this, I figured out why.

    It looks better then the first movie at least. Humans and Predators co-oping? What is this ######gotry?!
  • TykjenTykjen Join Date: 2003-01-21 Member: 12552Members, Reinforced - Shadow
    1 Human and 1 Predator co-oping happened in the very first AVP comic, which would have been a great movie if the makers of avp1 had followed it. Nevertheless, avp2 at least holds a steady R rating which will be entertaining imo.

    Looks like just a big gore fest, but it looks orders of magnitude better than the first one. It might just be a bad action movie, instead of one of the worst movies ever made.

    *sigh*

    Awesome trailer! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" /> I've been hoping the Brothers would do a great job and so far it looks that way. Love the groe level. Finally bringin g it back to the Original movies. Predator still owns.

    This looks so bad... And I read the topic title thinkin' some sort of really sweet game was coming out... alas.
  • torquetorque Join Date: 2003-08-20 Member: 20035Members, NS1 Playtester, Constellation
    I always thought the Capcom AvP beatemup was pretty awesome...

    As long as humans are delegated to target practice / collateral damage instead of "characters," this movie <i>might</i> actually be quite entertaining.

    It looks like they got a young version of Weaver lookalike in this one. It actually looks like it might be decent.

    There is a difference between "bad but enjoyable movies" (like AVP and Jeepers Creepers 2) and "Just plain terrible movies"... like the obvious ones that everyone knows (Plan 9, Manos, Beast of Yucca Flats which I *still* say is worse than manos). But yeah. AVP was kinda sucky.

    But this AVP2 looks both awesome and annoying. From the trailer it looks like they basically took "Predator" and "Aliens" and mashed them together and hoped it worked out. I just hope they can pull it off.

    Still though, dude running into invisible claws = awesome.

    Well, this movie seems to end up being better than the abomination which was AvP.

    That's always something.

    Hmm very reminiscent of Reign Of Fire

    Bad but pretty enjoyable?
  • cshank4cshank4 Join Date: 2003-02-11 Member: 13425Members
    Yay mindless violence.


    Ugh, they just need to stop.

    Am I the only one who's feeling the alarm bells on this?

    Let's see. We all acknowledge the first one was terrible, right? One of the biggest complaints was it had been turned into a PG film in order to maximise revenue. Please people, don't be suckered. The whole point of the uber-gory Trailer now is to try & grab you back in:

    <b><i>"No really, it's not! Look, we can still do horror! Watch the gibs! WATCH THEM! Please."</b></i>

    I personally have pretty much no doubt this will also be terrible. It'll just be slasher flick gore terrible. Imagine 'I know what you did last summer' with Xenomorphs.

    ... I know you're joking here, but that sounds <b>awesome</b>.


    Seriously though, there's nothing wrong with "mindless violence" style flicks, as long as you don't go in expecting anything more. I'll probably see this film, but I won't be expecting a brilliantly paced emotional rollercoaster. I'll be paying to see people get cut up and eaten. Then I'll leave the cinema, and laugh with my friends about how awesome it was when that one guy got like, *totally* eaten. Doesn't mean I have no taste, or that I suck at movies, it just means I know what to expect.

    What do you think Ridley Scott designed Alien (the original) to be like? Besides, in all honesty, I enjoyed AvP. The simple fact is that the Yautja aren't mindless killers. Their society is based off culture, and they're well and fully capable of logical thought. The chick proved herself and they had a common, more important foe.

    Yautja will always be the ultimate badasses. ###### the Xenomorphs. Boring Jason Jr's.

    Mmm, gore.

    I'll probably see this just cause I like aliens with acid blood and invisible spacemen that shoot lasers.
  • cshank4cshank4 Join Date: 2003-02-11 Member: 13425Members
    Is it too much to get the universe's finest badasses back in action? I miss the nuclear ballbusters and pointy sticks, pl0x.
