Being a huge fan of both Predator, and Aliens, i actually enjoyed the AvP movie for the fact that i could at least see them in their glory again, but - granted ; it could have been alot, alot better. I did enjoy the concepts in the story about using the human as cattle for hosts for better prey to hunt, but ill agree about its continuity, or lack of. Had its moments though. I also thought the Queen in AvP looked mintox.
For AvP2 (the film) i have read some concepts of what was rumoured to be a "leaked script" : set in a Texan shopping mall, and involving all the worst stereotyped characters we all never want to see again. Such as the nerdy pizza delivery guy, the retired sherriff, the unwitting/reluctant hero.. etc
So i can only hope, that this script was either a rumour or leaked 'on purpose' so to speak, as a way to gauge the reaction of the public. And as you can imagine it was that of an upset, even angry, audience. Shit, they pretty much wrecked the first one, i want the sequel to be the redeemer. (Though we all know how spectacular sequels often turn out to be..
)
What i would dearly love to see is all out Predator/Aliens Warfare, like an invasion of a Predator homeworld or something, or at least somewhere remote again. With minimal human interaction. As i haven't read as many of the AvP comics as i'd like, i would like to see what their society may look like and see some more of Yautja technology. Also as with the end of AvP one im looking forward to seeing the PredAlien(s?) and possibly Praetorians if they can get them in there. I just hope Hollywood and Fox can give the FANS what they want to see rather than just making what they class as a "fantastic piece of cinemaarr".
Pfft, Death to Hollywood!
Ps, if anyone else has AvP2 here and is as shit as me, being as i have a fucked up keyboard and mouse then say so and maybe we can 'frag it out' or something. Yeah.
