Alien vs. Predator: Requiem

[Shade]

Holy shit. Greatest trailer, ever. Looks like Predator is taking his previous brethren's shitty performance, seriously. They wreck shit up here. Hi-Def version at IGN.

Also, it's rated fucking R. Fuck all that PG-13 shit.

Ah damn, this movie has Michelle Dessler, in a tank top, in the rain :sweat:

Trailer looked sweet.

[xero15]

oh fuck yes this movie is gonna kick so much ass.

[Bare Knuckle 2]

Looks like they used the same writers they used for the first shitty AVP. They are using a different director though.Hopefully this one turns out better.

[Anakron]

Some parts make it seem like it tries to be a horror movie but that action is looking really sweet. Did they change directors for the sequel?

I still wish they followed the comic's plot.

AVP's story was just fine. It was the directing, and Film Rating that shitted it up.

Yea, new director. Also, which Comic? There's a shitload of AvP related comics.

[darthJones]

That dual-headshot scene is sweet!

The story with that japanese girl that joined up with the predators.

Don't remember her name anymore since I hadn't read the comics/novels since I was a kid. But that plot line would make a good movie trilogy if done right.

[Mr. Bastos]

yeah, thats look like it gonna be good shit

I know of it, hell I still have the trade paperback. But I wanted to know which one he was specifically speaking of.

And I actually wouldnt want that particular story followed, since alot of things would have to be explained, or implied before even getting to the fighting between Alien and Pred. I mean, they werent on Earth in that.

It could be done, but it seems directors have a hard enough time working with already known factors (Earth, humans, Aliens and Predators) to make a good flick.

[Shadowcuz]

holy shit this movie is bloody

[semijuggalo]

Oh shit! I'm so fuckin' there, man! I can already tell that it's gonna be better than the first one. In all honesty, I enjoyed the first AVP movie, despite being toned down to get a PG-13 rating. The fact that this movie is gonna be balls-out bloody and violent already has my undivided attention!

[Wellman]

Ah damn, this movie has THE QUEEN, in a tank top, in the rain :sweat:

Trailer looked sweet.

Fixed and I shall see this movie now [Beast Wars' Inferno]FOR THE ROYALTY [/Beast Wars' Inferno].

[GreyFoxx]

Wow...over the top dual-head chompers!!!

[Shade]

Let's see. I spotted a new weapon for the Pred's (that "whip"). Awesome. I spotted the PRED-ALIEN (woot) aswell.

[PsychoSquall]

That short trailer was better than the full Paul Anderson movie.

[Taito]

I'm on the fence with this movie. All the humans look as helpless as teens in a Jason movie. Since it's an action movie, I'd want to see to follow the Aliens and Predator 1 model, and include special forces types that can (briefly) hold their own against the As and Ps. Maybe the Army grunts shown in the trailer will fill that role, maybe not.

At least it's seriously R-rated material, no 80s action movie franchise deserves anything less than an R rating.

yeah it does suck that the humans are basically FUCKED in this movie. On the plus side it looks as though there will be only one Predator which should be badass just seeing him take on all the Aliens.
Would be nice to see the black chick from the previous movie just show up out of the blue and help out.

[Endless]

HOLY CRAP!

O___O

THIS IS THE MOVIE I'VE WAITED 18 YEARS FOR
NOT THAT CRAPPY ONE WE GOT LAST TIME.

The Predator looks true to his original form, a hunter, not a bulky monster.

sidenote: It was filmed in Vancouver, Canada.

[Shadowcuz]

that shit was crazy when the Predator threw that bigass 'shuriken' and made that chick flew.

[sixtymhz]

im hyped up for this movie.

[BEWD]

Now this is the movie I've been waiting for. Kudos to the posters who mentioned the director change. Seriously, Paul Anderson(director for the first AvP movie) ADMITTED to having an Alien basis before the movie came to theaters. The first movie was moreso another Alien movie with Predator guest stars than a true AvP movie. I seriously hope this doesn't disappoint me like the first one, but the trailer's on the right track so far.

[Dan?]

Dang, chick getting a pred shuriken to the stomach is almost as good a method as the stairs.


Almost.

[YellowS4]

I teared up watching it. Fucken amazing.

[voodazz]

Holy crap, the Pred holding TWO fucking aliens by the throat Wayne Brady style!

As far as I'm concerned this is a reboot for the franchise. The first movie never happened.

Nice to see the Red Queen back in action... you Bauernites know what I'm talkin' bout!

[Rhio2k]

The Predator looks true to his original form, a hunter, not a bulky monster.



Judging by the musclemass, 99.2% sure it's a female.

[Infested Jester]

Nice...R-rating....no fucking Anderson......AvP2 "Redemption" is more like it. :tup:

[DeathReaper47]

I don't like the fact that the humans are all "ZOMG WE ARE SO FUCKED DOODS!!11". That Ripley ripoff looked like she knew what she was doing though.

But why am I complaining? Its R RATED THIS TIME. No Paul Anderson. No newbie ass Predators.

[Lantis]

What sorta gets me is that the movie seems to take place in some backwater town in the woods, which sorta makes the humans easy prey (Hicks get their dues, hah hah). But otherwise, yeah, looks fuckin' sweet!

Wiki also keeps mentioning the Predaliens appearing in this movie. :wtf: I hope we can get a clearer shot of 'em in the future.

[white shadow]

I don't like the fact that the humans are all "ZOMG WE ARE SO FUCKED DOODS!!11". That Ripley ripoff looked like she knew what she was doing though.


If this was real we'd all be fucked. These people aren't like the ones in the distant future and wouldn't even know what the fuck they were dying from and their physiology.


I felt sorry for the dude who got an acid facial, what a slow and painful way to go.:wasted:

[TheWholeFnShow]

WOW. There's nothing else i can say. Sick trailer. :tup:

[HeaT]

at 1:54, there is another shot of what looks like to be an pred alien, looks like it has dreads and lower mandibles...in that scene he is attacking a predator with that mouth thing...

Movie looks SO sick, And I'll admit I thought the first one was gonna be good ;_;

[De4dEyE]

That part where the pred turned on his cloak and his eyes appear = FUCKING SICK


This movie will hopefully be a good watch... and that ship crash landing, so that's probably the ship from the first movie, hm?

[scentless]

fuck that, i saw the army, the police and a lot of humans diying..... but where the fuck is Danny Glover??????!!!1

[RockBogart]

Since when did Predators slaughter unarmed people? And I forgot the female Predators are a lot bigger than the males.

[Xiii]

Who cares about unarmed Humans being shreded? I think it's good to have 2 alien races both with zero discretion for the cattle inbetween. To be honest, the Preds allying themselves with the Humans in both the comic and the AVP movie really sucked imo. Simple dialogue, simple plot, 90% action is what and all I really expect out of an AVP movie.

[Rhio2k]

So big boy from the last movie could've been a chick pred??

[Endless]

Canonically...

MOST Female Preds don't hunt.

However there have been a few resin models of Female Hunters and Warriors.

For all your Predator stuff needs: http://www.predatorstuff.com/
All Predator fans should check that page out, crazy collection of things.

[kane_warhead]

The way I see it, the predator was some sort of security guard and his/her ship crash landed on some town; wherein his/her prisoners(Aliens) escaped.

He/She isn't a hunter that's why he/she is killing everything on sight.

[RockBogart]

Yeah i sorta understand why he/she would be killing everything. All the humans are potential host.

[Weecho]

Trailer was fuckin sick. Cant wait to watch this in theatres.

Would you have time to stare while being eviscerated and skinned alive?

[Shadowcuz]

well theyre Humanoids, so i assume each gender have different anatomies.

i always thought they were all males.

[Shade]

Yep. Good eye. This movie takes place directly after the first. Hence the Pred-alien.


Wiki also keeps mentioning the Predaliens appearing in this movie. :wtf: I hope we can get a clearer shot of 'em in the future.

It's all through the trailer. Quick shots, but it's in there. It's the fully adult one from the first films ending.

Since when did Predators slaughter unarmed people? And I forgot the female Predators are a lot bigger than the males.


It depends on the writer/story. If humans aren't the main hunt, then they are literally just in the way. Same as the original AVP comic. Didnt matter who you were, if you ran into them, they killed you. They didnt have any problem going to some random planets, and impregnating their inhabitants with Alien host.


female Predators dont have breasts?

Yea, they do. I haven't seen a depiction of them without them yet. They rarely hunt too, regardless of the story. It's always been the males.

This Pred seems to be a mixed of the Predator 2 Pred (whom was slenderer than the Pred from Predator 1), and the AVP Preds. Ironically, both are played by Ian White, and both original Pred's were portrayed by the same man aswell. Kevin Peter Hall. Same actor whom played Harry from "Harry And the Hendersons". Dude died from Aids or something. =(

[Rik]

Well the first movie failed on a lot of fronts, but I believe it was mainly due to the fact that the director was attempting on reproducing the entire"riply"situation with that black girl whom i felt ruined the movie. It was to convenient to have her survive untill the end and teaming up with the pred to basicially change the movie into"humans and preds vs aliens"instead of what it was intending to be. Aside from the momment of finally having these two monsters on film at the same time...the first movie was just an okay film. Certainly not worthy of the AVP franchise though...oh and i think the whole thing about female preds isnt canon so i doubt we'll be seeing any soon.

[ViciousSLASH]

I'm tired of humans in my fucking ALIEN VS PREDATOR MOVIES.

It's not Alien vs Human vs Predator, get that shit outta here. Seriously, how hard is that to understand?? Must be the most hard thing in the entire movie industry.

It's so played. You know that that women is going to end up killing everyone or saving the world or something.

It's great to see all the violence though. Double Headshot running riot is where it's at.

I guarentee the director goes the faggot "feel bad for the humans" route storyline instead of focusing on the Pred/Alien conflict.

The Humans should be there to explain why a crazy fish looking alien thing is killing cheesecurl headed ants. AND THAT IS THE ONLY REASON.

If you are going to have humans, I want Danny Glover and Arnold sons. Not the whole "look women can be strong too" overplayed bullshit.

To sum everything up, I Know the movie is going to have some dumbass storyline, so I will go to see more headshots and wolverine uppercuts. Then I will be sad when the predator dies in some gay ass way.

[yungb254]

Think this movie needs a hero along the lines of Dutch or Danny Glover's character but it looks like we're getting a fake Ripley. I wonder if the predator that killed that chick was a renegade because they're supposed to go by a code, if their prey isn't armed don't kill it.

[Shade]

I wonder if the predator that killed that chick was a renegade because they're supposed to go by a code, if their prey isn't armed don't kill it.

I already explained this. There's really no "code". There's rules to the hunt, and if the hunt says you arent the main course, then you're just in the way. It was like this in the original AVP comic.

[YellowS4]

Fake Ripley? Fripley?

[Diek Stiekem]

The trailer looks wicked sick

Gotta agree with Vslash on the lame hero stuff though (first AVP was bullshit stuff; Predator & Blackgirl team up together to save the world :confused: )

Reiko aka Michelle Dessler is nice though... for eye candy
Im gonna freakin' mark out if it has a Dutch "Get to da choppah!" line.

[pherai]

The truest post in the thread

What is wrong with you guys? If you are dissapointed with humans getting slaughtered, you are missing the point. What made the first one bad was not some stupid Alien bias, it was the fucking black chick teaming up with the Preds killing Aliens, and I have no doubt we'll see a similar storyline in this one. A sexy female hero is the wrong route in any action/horror movie. It makes the Predators and Aliens look weak in comparison by implying she can hang with them. Some of you need to go back and watch all the true Alien and Predator movies.

[DaDesiCanadian]

This is the only acceptable situation where humans are important:

The Preds and Aliens fuck everything up, and then the last Aliens and the Last Preds faceoff to control some kind of device that will fuck up humanity. After 20 minutes of epic fighting, they're all dead except two predators. As they're about to press the button, Dutch jumps in through a skylight armed with nothing but a knife. He fucks up one of them, while yelling FOR BEELEEEEE!!!!! and other epic one liners. He kills one, and just as the other one is about to kill him, Glover comes in and puts a bullet through its head using that old ass pistol they left him at the end of Pred 2. Then Dutch and Glover pronounce themselves the manliest men alive and destroy humanity for being such big pussies in the first place.

Fuck, I should write this shit.

[Endless]

If you are going to have humans, I want Danny Glover and Arnold sons. Not the whole "look women can be strong too" overplayed bullshit.


Actually, it's not overplayed (kinda)

The original AVP storyline was developed in 1991-1992, and back then when AVP was in "movie development limbo" there were not as many female lead action heroes. Unfortunately, the first TERRIBLE AVP movie didn't come out then many many many years later, and we've seen many lead female characters since then, which is why it's considered overplayed now.

Back in the day, the first AVP comic series was pretty unique in having an asian female lead character.
Now it's not so unique.



On the trailer, I was suprised and shocked that they facehugged a KID (!!)

[R.P.D rookie]

They got the old sound effects of the Alien screams from the original Aliens movie. So good.:sad:

[yungb254]

I already explained this. There's really no "code". There's rules to the hunt, and if the hunt says you arent the main course, then you're just in the way. It was like this in the original AVP comic.

The first two Predator movies already established the rule. I mean Arnold explained it in the first movie, and in Predator 2 the reason he didn't kill that hispanic chick was because she was pregnant and he wasn't going to kill an innocent unborn child.

[voodazz]

^ Yup. Preds have always been pro-life, yo.

[Shade]

The first two Predator movies already established the rule. I mean Arnold explained it in the first movie, and in Predator 2 the reason he didn't kill that hispanic chick was because she was pregnant and he wasn't going to kill an innocent unborn child.

Everytime this has been explained, theres always people who dont grasp what I'm saying.

In BOTH of those movies, they were huntung HUMANS. In anything, and everything AVP, they were hunting ALIENS. Go download any AVP comic. They dont give two fucks about humans in them. They go planet hopping, tossing alien eggs around, impregnating humans and animals alike with eggs, then go and get their hunt on. If a human gets in the way, they slice, cut, blow up whatever. Then go about their alien hunting business.

Whats so hard to grasp about that? it's Fact, not assumption.

They arent "pro-life", they are "if you kill this unarmed, impregnated human, you're a bitch, and when we get back home, I'ma call you a *** in front of our friends!".

[nmbr1krush]

:confused:. I think they're basing the movie off the comic. I always wanted predators to kill random civilians. Just because he seems not to give a fuck. Would of been hilarious if he ripped the head off that old woman with the broom in the second pred movie.

[yungb254]

I'm just going by what was stated in the Predator movies, where the idea of the predator came from. Comic book writers usually go and make up whatever they want but hey, Im just saying. You'd think the comics would take it into consideration.

Yeah that's the impression I got. When they're hunting something, they don't apply their 'honor' thing to random creatures that get in there way, so killing human civilians when they're hunting aliens isn't a problem. The only time they would spare someone is if they were hunting that particular species, and so they'd leave the weak/unarmed alone, since in their eyes it's not a kill they would like to make [because it'd be worthless/'dishonorable'/etc].

Then again, the AvP movie sort of puts this into a weird situation, because though the predators were specifically hunting the aliens, the surviving predator spares the life of Wayland [or whatever] when he scans his organs and sees that he's dying. The only reason he actually killed him is because said human attempted to bbq the predator when he was walking away, making him a hostile.

[Satomiblood]

Remember the part in the trailer when all those humans were being killed?

[bill_rizer]

Trailer was ok reminds me of a zombie type movie for some reason.

Also whats up with Ripley and Newt Version 2.0, yea im kinda sick of this strong women crap its a tried thing, even Ripley had a strong male character next to her in the Alien series like Hicks who was fn cool.

I guess James Cameron was right when he said the franchise was dead, they should have just let him make Alien5 when he was interested, dont see that happening now.

Hopefully in this movie Rambo will make an appearance......ok maybe not but the films location sure looks like first bloods.

[Gasp]

ill read this and contribute later.
just wanna say.
trailer had alot of humans dying.
i like that.

*Town crashes*

Raid Boss: Fuck this. *cloaks and teleports*

Lol, forgive me, had to do it.

In any case, anyone still have the old Alien Vs. Predator 2 fps? This makes me want to reinstall and fire that baby up again.

[Rik]

Well some folks in here are applying the logic from the comics into the films which they shouldnt be doing since the comics are a part of the extended universe and not cannon with the movies. It was established in the first 2 films that the preds dont kill what they consider weak(women, kids, helpess humans)and this was confirmed in the AVP film when the pred didnt kill Wayland cause of his illness. Even that one pred showed mecy on that black chick, he only ever went after the humans to retrieve his weapons. I just kinda feel though that overtime they sort of just threw the whole"code of ethics" thing just so we could enjoy gory deaths and what not. Im guessing the writers had a hard time going around it so they just decided"why the hell not"and ignored the whole concept altogether.

Im also sick of the"strong women" thing, it was good the first time but it just seems like a real lazy way to appear"different and inventive". Besides the whole situation in Aliens 2 is usually not put into proper context. People seem to think ripley is like this badass with years worth of combat experience who went into that planet and killed all the aliens with a single round of ammunition(sp). If it wasnt for the grunts...and expecially hicks i doubt she would have made it as far as she did.

[Rhio2k]

I agree. My girlfriend insists she has aged poorly, but I thought just the opposite.

With regards to a female lead, they have to do it right, and in AVP they did it wrong. I don't think it has to do with it being played out. A lot of the time, the badass female character amounts to nothing more than a male action character in a female body. There is a natural rejection of a character like this because its not realistic, and tries to force the image down your throat. Ripley was badass because there is a degree of femininity to her, and it makes her more amiable on screen. She was tough as nails if the situation called for it, but at the same time was motherly and warm (Newt). I think even Vasquez had a sympathetic side as opposed to the stupid bitch in AVP that just assumed a role of badass without trying to convince you of it.

[bill_rizer]

wasnt for the grunts...and expecially hicks i doubt she would have made it as far as she did.

Yea thats exactly what I meant dood. through all the films she has a strong sidekick male if you wanna call them that.

Alien - Parker the blackguy, shit if they let him kill the fucker after it burst out the doods chest they would of all lived, would have been a short movie though lol.

Aliens-Hicks "the machines man, the machines" lol yea I know wrong movie.

Alien3 - Dillon The black preacher who came up with all the ideas to kill the queen.

Without these guys she wouldnt have gotten anywhere.

Yea I didnt mention Resurrection because that wasnt even Ripley really was it now, more like uber-ripley, but she still had those grunts.


Speaking of Siggy, have you seen the new "Aliens" DirecTv commercial? She looks 20! This woman is aging in reverse or some shit. Next movie she's in, I bet she'll play a hot piece of jailbait...

LOL I know what you mean I remember that movie a couple years back the star trek parody cant remember its name, but I saw her in that and I was like god damn shes lookin pretty good for her age, thats the type of women you wanna marry, some women who look hot hit the wall real quick over time.


She looks 20? Looked 40+ to me....you are into MILFs aren't you?

:rofl::rofl:

Dood you havent lived untill youve done a MILF, believe me best fuck you will get.

I've always held the belief that the Alien movies wouldn't have been half as good without the badass black dude in each of them. The sarge in Aliens was too beastly.

I just kinda feel though that overtime they sort of just threw the whole"code of ethics" thing just so we could enjoy gory deaths and what not. Im guessing the writers had a hard time going around it so they just decided"why the hell not"and ignored the whole concept altogether.


The movies arent even "canon", not AVP at least. Sure, you can lump them up together, but then you have fanboys from all different angles who will pick it apart. In any case, these are in fact based on the COMICS/GAMES. So have at cha. :rofl:

Speaking of Siggy, have you seen the new "Aliens" DirecTv commercial? She looks 20! This woman is aging in reverse or some shit. Next movie she's in, I bet she'll play a hot piece of jailbait...


Dude, I'd wreck Sigourney Weaver.

[bill_rizer]

Hell yea, just re-installed that shit now. They really need to make a part 3.

Tell me about it.

Actually he liked AVP, and expressed interest in making a new Alien film. lol


He said doing a vs movie means that you are basically saying a franchise is on its last legs.

Resurrection wasnt a franchise killing movie so they could have gone somewhere with it.

After the AvP movies who wants to see just humans vs Aliens anymore? It wouldnt make much sense now.

[Rhio2k]

She looks 20? Looked 40+ to me....you are into MILFs aren't you?

...I fail to see how my appreciation for older women is relevant to the fact that Sigourney's hotter than a stolen laptop.

[4Play]

LOL I know what you mean I remember that movie a couple years back the star trek parody cant remember its name, but I saw her in that and I was like god damn shes lookin pretty good for her age, thats the type of women you wanna marry, some women who look hot hit the wall real quick over time.



Galaxy Quest, she looked great there.:lovin: As for the strong women thing, it might work. It is the QUEEN(thanks Wellman for the correction) after all. Oh well movie looks great so far.

[Mavric]

There better be more fucking alien vs predator in this movie than the last one. And not have the first hour filled with humans running around getting whacked by aliens before the predators get there.

[Taito]

Who cares about unarmed Humans being shreded? I think it's good to have 2 alien races both with zero discretion for the cattle inbetween. To be honest, the Preds allying themselves with the Humans in both the comic and the AVP movie really sucked imo. Simple dialogue, simple plot, 90% action is what and all I really expect out of an AVP movie.
Well I definitely don't want to see helpless idiots screaming their heads off every 5 minutes, which is what the trailer is full of. A military squad, that won't automatically shit their pants at the sight of an alien killing machine, just works better in A and P movies if you have to have humans at all (and of course you have to have them, that's how Xenomorph aliens usually operate).

This is kinda reminding me of Transformers.. lots of human extras stealing screen time from what everyone paid a ticket for. Hopefully the humans get wiped out quick.

[Xiii]

Well chances of Hollywood ever allowing the viewer to only follow from an Alien perspective is probably 0%. Sure it would be cool to watch Preds sitting around a table playing Texas Hold Em' for some skulls, but the excuse will always be "The audience doesn't have anything to relate to". As with any other movie, we'll have Human main characters and there's a 90% chance that at least one of them will survive and a 99% chance that Aliens will lose again and Preds will fly off into the sunset while the surviving Human(s) look on. Clichéd, but hell, Hollywood = Formula.

When I buy my ticket for this movie, I only care about 1 thing. Blood.

[Wellman]

Hell yea, just re-installed that shit now. They really need to make a part 3.

Shit with the current technology and good creative direction, another AVP first person shooter would be godly.


Xiii: I agree with you Hollywood wouldn't let a Alien vs. Predator movie be made if there wasn't any humans in there. But you probably could do an entire Predator from the Predator's point of view. Heck a quarter of the first Predator was like that.

You can't have them shooting th shit in their spaceship but eh...

[Biolink]

Depending on how strong the prey is can the Predator just consider that person a threat to kill.Such as for example,if the person has alot of physical strength?

Another question pertaining to Predators.In the AvP series,are the Predators more portrayed as the side that the Humans want to win if anybody?Or is there an equal hate with Predators and Aliens?

Predators all differ, but like Shade said, if you aren't the big game, you're just in the way. Anyways, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think even the weakest Pred tend to much more physically powerful than a human.

As for which side, really depends on what material you're reading/viewing, but usually both sides are treated with revulsion at first.

[Biolink]

Where did you read the series at?

[BEWD]

There's actually numerous comic series/books on the subject, you should be able to find them pretty easily with a web search, I used to have a site with info on the series with that Asian girl who went to the pred home world, lost it(and a bunch of my alien/pred sites) when my comp crashed.

TYVM.

I'll look around.

[RockBogart]

Actually the original Predator was Jean Claude Vandam before they decided to change everything.

Van Damme was only Pred for a couple of athletic scenes.

[voodazz]

Everytime this has been explained, theres always people who dont grasp what I'm saying.

In BOTH of those movies, they were huntung HUMANS. In anything, and everything AVP, they were hunting ALIENS. Go download any AVP comic. They dont give two fucks about humans in them. They go planet hopping, tossing alien eggs around, impregnating humans and animals alike with eggs, then go and get their hunt on. If a human gets in the way, they slice, cut, blow up whatever. Then go about their alien hunting business.

Whats so hard to grasp about that? it's Fact, not assumption.

They arent "pro-life", they are "if you kill this unarmed, impregnated human, you're a bitch, and when we get back home, I'ma call you a *** in front of our friends!".

Calm down, son I was just kidding, although I did see a pred with a "W" sticker on his spaceship the other day. :wgrin:

I'm well aware of the pred's code of ethics when it comes to the hunt, particularly when the aliens are the prey. Personally I'm in the camp of wanting an all out
genocide of the humans, but that's never going to happen. Hell a lot of the AVP comics have one or more pesky human antagonists mucking things up for the preds and aliens, but I guess they wouldn't be put on the top tier prey list by the preds if they didn't.

[Rhio2k]

They arent "pro-life", they are "if you kill this unarmed, impregnated human, you're a bitch, and when we get back home, I'ma call you a *** in front of our friends!".


:rofl: True

[Titan44]

AvP: War is one of the books about the chick that goes off and starts hunting with the Preds. Not 100% sure which book she initially joins them in, but I think it was Hunter's Planet. IIRC the Preds end up bagging a fucking T-rex in that shit :confused:

As for the whole killing "code" thing, I think it just depends on the hunter. Shit seems to go out the window when they get pissed, though. Call me crazy, but that bitch getting snatched up by the windmill shiruken like that didn't exactly look like it only happened because she was "in the way". Looked more like some "where the fuck do you think you're going?" type shit. But w/e, guess we'll find out more once the movie is out.

[white shadow]

You're not crazy. I've been pondering this myself, that's why I theorize that Predator is trying to eliminate all potential human hosts to prevent an infestation.

That, or the humans managed to kill an alien by themselves, and now the Predator sees them as competition/worthy game.

wow nice I hope predators win again. I look like one...

[BEWD]

I'd hardly call the first movie a pred victory. 2 of the three main preds died to fucking headshots. One of them(Celtic Pred) didn't even take down not one Alien. Scar got finest koed by the Queen, then had a predalien burst out of his carcass at the end of the movie(mind telling me how an entire fucking MOTHERSHIP of predators don't catch that?)

The celtic predator had a very intricate mask, and he relied the most on his physicality out of the group(he engaged grid alien in hand to tail combat for most of the battle, using his net to give grid his trademark scars). The Scar predator has an intentional scar marking on his helmet he made with a face hugger claw he snapped off. The third had a unique mask too I believe, Scar was the closest to the iconic pred of the 2 pred movies though(until he got his distinguishing mark)

Thanks for posting the link to the figs shade :lovin:, also have a battle alien and elder pred still in their package(don't have room to display them right now, and still trying to get ahead of the stupidly difficult to find mcfarlane fig display boxes with the mini lights inside)




EDIT: Third pred's name was Gill Predator(had forgotten it, so I had to look up screencaps from the movie and remembered as soon as I saw it). Gill actually dies first in the movie, impaled on Grid's tail, then headshotted -_-.

Gill's also called the Chopper Predator.

[Rhio2k]

It would be the shit for a predator to rock the Shredder helmet...

[ckrazy]

Trailer looks good but then again I thought the previous AVP was gonna be good then it was total shit :/

[gemdoom]

as a story i liked the first avp. not the humans side but the predator side altogether. baiting humans into getting hosts. then the main predator takes the other two new predators into the area and see if they can pass the test of escaping with the cannon alive. i personally liked that shit it showed that they were scrubs except the one with experience (last predator to die) i didn't like the ending though shit was wack.

[xero15]

They arent "pro-life", they are "if you kill this unarmed, impregnated human, you're a bitch, and when we get back home, I'ma call you a *** in front of our friends!".

man that sounds like the unspoken rule of srk posters and men on smashing chicks on guys night out.

oh i saw the predalien twice or so in the movie but those teens looked like they could have been out doing something dumb and ended up sleepin in the woods. facehugger probably got on a few of them and the predator is just eliminating the threat before it happens.

Clichéd, but hell, Hollywood = Formula.

When I buy my ticket for this movie, I only care about 1 thing. Blood.
My point was there's no way to avoid having humans in a movie like this. Hollywood, or facehuggers making Aliens out of humans (yes they don't have to use humans), whatever. Special military/commando-type humans are somewhat less stupid than regular civilians. The latter makes the movie more like a teen slasher flick. That's the vibe the trailer gave off, and that's not a good thing compared to the better movies in the franchises.

And don't think I'm targeting you or anything, I'm just explaining why I'm on the fence with this flick.

[versus addict]

Just re-watched AVP #1 and yes....it sucks but it has its moments. There are a handfull of scenes that were pretty good.

#2 looks promising....they need to bring back that jungle music from Predator, shit was all tribal and scary sounding.

[Arsenal]

I think civilians aren't such a bad way to go, if they are there for a purpose. Like, if it's just some random gathering of people who just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time, then that's cheesy (like teen slashers). If it's done smartly, then it could go well.

Hell, the people in Alien were cargo shippers. But it was so smartly done, that it was okay that none of them could go commando-style...

[Satomiblood]

I saw the trailer once, but the civis appear to be on a camping trip. That doesn't turn me off to it. The military storyline between both Alien and Predator franchises has been done more than once. It was either or. In this one, however, it looks like a blend of the two seeing as how the military gets involved later on.

[BEWD]

Btw, not AvP related, but pred related, anyone read the Concrete Jungle novel? It's a book sequel/spinoff of the original pred movie featuring Dutch's(Schwarzenegger's) brother. Might pick it up on my lunch break tomorrow.

It's a fuck-win game, in spite of what the reviews gave. I play it on the regular. You have almost literally, everything that makes a Predator a Predator at your disposal. Not only that, but the STORY (yes, it has one) is possibly one the greatest ones ever penned for a Movie related videogame (GRANT MORRISON penned the original script).

So yea, get it. I actually bought a copy (which is rare for me nowadays). It's worth it.

Either one, here's my thing Shade, I can either buy the Predator Omnibus(which has the graphic novel plus cold war, another story, and a bunch of pred side stories, 400 pgs total, or I can get the novel, which apparently goes more indepth/

Also really glad to hear the concrete jungle review, didn't see too many good things on ign/gamespot, but it seems like they were expecting MGS: Predator edition.

[Titan44]

Gameplay in Concrete Jungle seemed hella clunky and glitchy to me, so I didn't play it for very long.

Did read the book though, which was pretty good. The Pred Omnibus thing sounds more interesting though.

In my experience with the game, I found nothing "clunky" or "glitchy" with the controls. In direct contrast, thats what most people praised about the game.

From what I've gathered from the trailer it looks like a small town is overrun by the aliens. I didn't get the "Dumb teenagers on a camping trip and get fucked up" vibe. It looked more like they were trying to get the hell outta the town.

Anyone notice the scene of the evil old white men in the corporate office? Could this be "The Company" from the Alien movies?


Also, if it's only one predator then they spoiled the HELL out of this movie when it shows the Pred getting impaled by a Predalien, but not before jabbing his claws in its skull (gangsta).
Also, is that a freakin' nuke they're dropping on the town??


The ending of the first avp did indeed suck and I agree that a ship full of Preds should have noticed something like that, although the theory of them being distracted by the avp arcade game has merit. I remember spending a TON of time playing that game over and over and over... :wasted:

Its like Capcom vs SNK neither SF/KOF story related.

NECA is pretty good. They're making the new Castlevania action figure lineup, and their previous things look pretty good also.

Oh trust me I know about the figs falling apart, one of the blades off my celtic pred fig came off by me brushing it, I took off the plasma rifle accessory and stored it so I didn't lose junk until I could put them up.

I still believe AvP 2 on the pc is possibly the best game based on the Alien, Predator, and AvP franchises combined really(arguably beaten out by the arcade game, which is addicting as hell) I just hope the psp game(by the same company that made the pc fps games) is good.

A good novel I suggest is Predator: Big Game, pretty good standalone novel, might reread it again later.

True, however those movies that play the fence willl often say "Film not yet rated" - this movie - based off the trailer seems to THRIVE off the "R-rated" potential - even so much as to have the guy yell out "Fuck you!" or whatever at the end.

Haha, but this situation is far from normal. Every Alien/Predator was 'R' prior to AVP. AVP was not the norm. It's already been set in stone, anyway. The director and studio wanted an 'R' AVP this time around. First one was shit, so it's not like the first was successful, and changing the rating would hurt it. Far opposite, here.

Where'd you get "Female" pred from? This one's male, and has been dubbed "Wolf" by the studio. Names and plot = leaked script months ago, and plenty of studio and cast interviews, + IMDB listings.

And whats not different from before? The mass violence, the location, the plot? All different.

I hope that's not in the movie.

Although the last movie was trash, I DO admit they captured the movement of the Aliens quite well. They were as quick as they should be. I hope that this movie correctly shows how fast they are.


My recommended Predator reads:

Batman vs Predator (the first one) - Great art, great story. Done by the Kubert brothers. If THIS was made into a movie, it would ROCK, because it captures the atmosphere of Batman and Predator very well. 9/10

Aliens vs Predator: War - Follows up the storyline after the original AVP comic series. Quite good. 7.5/10

Predator: Bad Blood - Really violent, even for a Predator comic. Art is unique, but quite good. Talks about a renegade serial killer Predator on the loose. 7/10

Predator: Captive - oneshot comic, nice art, talks about how a rich dude captures a Predator. 7/10

Aliens vs Predator: Eternal - much better than I expected, pretty good story. Good art and good pacing. 7.5/10

edit: Predator: Hunter's Planet is one of the comics I haven't read, but REALLY want to read.

Tidbits/Spoilers

Wolf (dubbed name of the solo Pred at work in the film) is missing his upper mandibles and 1 eye, among various other scars (some from the acid blood of the Aliens). It can clearly bee seen in several side shots in the trailer.

He's not an elder, but he's no novice Pred either. He has various horn growth on his face (like various elders depicted in the films), and body (a new take on how a Pred develops) because of this.

Broken Tusk?!!!!! (from the original AvP comic series)

[Demon_Hyo]

finally a promising alien vs predator movie, not digging the rippley wannabe but its looking pretty good. And its Rated R.

My thoughts exactly

[Satomiblood]

I think it's cool how one of the characters is named Dallas. I look at that as a nod to the original Alien.

[HaiDuongRiceMan]

Aw damn, it's just one Predator?

[Ceramiclion]

I think this trailer pretty much wants to let the viewers know that they mean business. I wonder if they really do mean business? I am a little worried the trailer spoiled a whole chunk of the fights and chases...As long as its not the same director from last time then you know the movie is gonna be better. I heard who directed the first part also directed resident evil and is one of the worst in the industry as far as quality is concerned.

[DarthTrey]

I'm fairly hyped about this movie as well, first one left a bad taste in my mouth and I had to immediately go buy the original predator just try and forget it >_<

I believe he is safely topped by Uwe Boll -_-


Also, reading the Predator: Bad Blood comics, the Psycho pred is too fucking good :lovin:

Also, anyone try that pred rpg?

[Biolink]

Is the Psycho Predator the most dangerous one(Considering his name)?

[BEWD]

Is the Psycho Predator the most dangerous one(Considering his name)?

Out of all the preds I've seen, I'd say yes, for a couple reason, he kills indiscriminate, tortures his victims, and the fact that he murders OTHER predators too with complete abandon(He is also the only predator in all three franchises to have had orders given specifically for his elimination to my knowledge). He's basically the pred version of Dahmer, and makes the one from the first movie look like a creme puff. Don't want to spoil the comic for you, but I'll send you a pm for where you can get it.

[Biolink]

That guy sounds badass.Arnold wouldn't have stood a chance

[Kromo]

It looks like a pretty fun movie...mainly because of the "r" rating
I don't expect it to not have a retarded story...I just hope there's no bullshit ambiguous "tie" ending...but I doubt that they would let either side come out with a decisive victory...Maybe humans will just nuke em all and let whatever mechanical demon god is out there sort em out.

[BEWD]

Well I honestly think the Aliens got the last laugh in the first "movie" -_-. By all means, I love the Xenos, but once again, that mothership scene was utter bullshit. How did I come to my conclusion?

Preds entire mission was a failure, as all three got finest koed, two by the same Xeno.

Humans lost as all of them got wtfpwned(that I don't mind), and Lex was left in the middle of a frozen wasteland, with no means of communication or travel, so her fate is basically in the air.

The Xenos may have been wiped out(for the most part), but the predalien busting out of the movie(and surviving if this is any form of sequel, but I honestly hope it is its own standalone film.) and making it past a ship of preds gets my vote for a victory. The xenos main goal in most any alien film is survival before anything else, and the predalien did just that.

Been a while since I watched that shitty film AvP,but a Predator and Alien mated to create some freakish hybrid?I don't recall at the moment.

The main character Pred, "Scar Predator" got facehugged in a scene, and he didn't know about it, but you see him put his mask back on after.

Aliens take some characteristics of the creatures they impregnate, you can see this in the video games and the comics.

The monstrous crocodile-Alien from Batman/Aliens was AWESOME.

Face huggers impregnating Predators. It is shown halfway through the first AvP, when the remaining Pred was ambushed by a face hugger (although the scene was cut when the face hugger appeared and was then shown lying dead on the ground), and then in the end, when the Pred was carried off in the Pred mothership, they show the "Predalien" bursting out of his chest.

Hahah, endless, you remember any of those old ass Alien figures by kenner? They had a fig for every species :rofl:, even had a "Alien King" fig, I had a link with a gallery of em, I'll try to find it later.

But yea, as the others said, Scar got facehugged, but I definitely don't agree with him not knowing about it. Victims don't get amnesia from being facehugged, they still remember it, just most of the time they don't know what's coming AFTER it. Scar probably figured he'd live till the end(Doubt he expected the Queen to fly the coop) and get treated by the pred med team.(Several alien games have machines the players can pick up that'll actually kill the chestburster embryo before it can burst, though it hasn't appeared in any of the films to date, so whether it's canon or not can be disputed.)

Dude...I TOTALLY remember those figures !! :rofl::confused::sad::rofl:
It's funny and sad at the same time, cuz those figures SUCKED SO MUCH ASS!
But they were the only Alien and Predator figures available at the time.
I remember there was a Gorilla Alien, a Flying Queen Alien, a Bull Alien, that Alien King you're talking about, and there was this Alien Queen playset.
The Predator figures sucked even more :lol:
There was this Elder Predator with "whipping dreadlocks" (I'm not kidding) and there were all these other Preds with wierd facemasks that didn't look anything like the Preds.
I remember I mailed in for the "Clear Ambush Predator" but I never got it :sad:

yea, I was very very happy when McFarlane came out with his Predator 2 figures. Those were really really really good at the time, and weren't resin kits.
When the AvP movie came out, those figures were essentially modified Predator 2 figures, but they were still pretty nice.

As for Scar Predator knowing he was infected, maybe.
I'm not too sure, but all I remember he was all chill and relaxed and not worried at all about it.
Most people would be freaked out a LOT.
I guess that "Predator code of honour" makes him have no fear of death, because it is dishonourable to be scared.

Aliens seem a fair bit mroe advanced than I originally thought.Of the grunt type Aliens which is the strongest?

Hahah, man, I was so gonna buy those figures en masse a year ago, hearing how much they sucked I'm so glad I didn't. Rofl, those pred figs were a riot too, basically whatever "___ Predator" They could think of they made a fig for. I definantely rejoiced with the mcfarlane line(but admittedly they pulled their crap too with their 2 packs of minis, were all I could find after I bought my initial figs)


Also, about the Scar Predator, well honestly, that fearless of death aspect goes for all preds. With their lifestyle, I imagine it's a gift to even make it to "seasoned", much less elder, and even less ancient.(Though it's strange the elder pred in the AvP movie had no battle scars whatsoever..). Psycho Predator didn't live by any code whatsoever, and he's about the most dare devilish of any predator I've seen.

Some of you are actually excited to see this pile of shit? Like someone said, it comes off almost as a teen slasher flick. Look where the alien hive is, a freaking high school of all places on earth. The cgi looks video game terrible, near all human deaths are cgi too.

Only interest I have is that if this movie ties in with Aliens 4 (Alien: Resurrection). But no Ripley, forget it.

No sir, you are completely off. Nothing about this says "teen slasher flick". You need to research what that is. And their was barely any CG in the damn trailer. Suits =/= CG. And the hive was in a hospital, idort.

And lulz auto fails for wanting this obviously not in the futurez film to tie in with arguably the shittiest Alien film ever made.

I'm still a bit disappointed the director didn't go for the futuristic alien type setting. I wanted space marines, aliens, and predators duking it out in a huge fuckin' ship. Still, making this movie rated R with all the violence and blood will undoubtly shit all over the first one. Pred-alien is gonna be boss. The only real concern at the moment is gayface teens running rampant.

Damn they need to make a new AvP fps game. I was a fiend with runner-alien.

Using the Marine was one of the scariest video game experiences.
So many times I remember running scared (as a Marine) and falling down elevator shafts or stairs, breaking my legs :lol:

I couldn't touch it..

I'm such a fucking pussy. The fear of face huggers I think dated back to when I first played AVP on the Atari Jaguar. Sitting insanely close to TV + quite a decent size TV + FACE HUGGER SUDDENLY IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR PICTURE = ME FREAKING THE FUCK OUT OF THERE.

Plus I don't like Spiders, and face huggers have an arachnid approach to them.

Oh man I hear you on that one, imagine one of those queen facehuggers on you(thing's big as a fucking wolf). I remember playing the alien trilogy games, first or second level I think, I cleared the room out of enemies(so I thought.) and all of a sudden I got facehugged, almost had a heart attack :wasted:. I used cheats to go to the last level and beat the game as I couldn't risk another one of those.

"The super facehugger or the queen face hugger is different from the rest. It usually a little larger than the other facehuggers and has more of a metalic exoskeleton and it limbs are usually very sharp spears. It has spines going down the middle of it back, and can impregnate multiple times. This face hugger will make a queen, and then make her royal elite guards to keep her safe as she starts her journey. This super facehugger is not made by a queen, it is made by a drone/adult. This fact is later discovered in the comic book series and explains how the alien queen comes about in the second movie Aliens. They start to show how the adult reproduces the the super facehugger in the first movie in the cut secenes. When Ripley sees Bretts transformation and some of the other crew members down in the docking bay. The Aliens are able to introduce DNA into the human system that alters their body's chemistry so dramaticaly that it begins to morph into an alien egg. The DNA is passed into the host system from a stinger located at the tip of the alien tail. It takes ruffly 24 to 36 hours for complete transformation. It does not fully explain this in the comics or in the movies. It just introduces the idea and leaves the rest up to speculation."

Jeez, finding Concrete Jungle was a hunt in itself. Called three stores and they don't even have it in the computer(Ebgames/Gamestop). Went with my mom to the galleria, and walked off to their gamestop while she was looking for something, and I stumbled across two copies(new and used). I bought the used one for 19.99, cd's lightly scratched and I got the book with it, so hopefully it'll run good. haven't' loaded it up yet, but I see a costume called "Bad Blood" in the secrets section on gamefaqs, so I'm itching to see if that's the Psycho Predator costume(though I'm afraid they might be cute and make it be the PredCop that was in the Bad Blood series too).

Hahahahaha. I remember playing through the first game as a Marine, trying to unlock a cheat. It was one of the stages where you had to beat it in 6 minutes or something to unlock the cheat (if you remember the level, it's one of the colony stages where you have to turn off fans and move through large vent shafts or something), so you had to book it as fast as you could at all times. Well, there's one room that has a lone face hugger in it that I completely forgot about. I ran in, and before I even heard it... BAM! Face hugger killed me. It caught me off guard so much that I yelled "FUCK!" at the top of my lungs in sheer shock/surprise. :rofl:

Another time I had the music disc that the game uses while I was playing. The music just plays through on a loop most of the time, regardless of what you're doing... but one time it had perfect, god-like timing. I was traveling through a base and the music came to a part that played some loud noise to surprise you... but it just so happened that I got sneak attacked by an alien at the same time! Made me jump. :rofl:

Holy shit I had that toy. Wish my parents didn't make me get rid of all my Alien/AvP toys.

Regarding the movie, the gore and stuff looks pretty sick and befitting of an Alien/Predator movie... but my expectations for the movie aren't that high. As a movie, it's going to be god awful, but hopefully it can be entertaining in a Snakes on a Plane sort of way. I just hope the preview didn't give away all the cool fight/death scenes.

That is exactly like me. I'm also arachnophobic, so face huggers are in the same ballpark, and I could also never make it through the marine campaign in any of the games at all in fear of that.

The predator campaign was easy though. With the predator it's like "Bring it on!" but as a marine "I wanna go home!"

Yet another update/revision to the AvP:R Trailer was shown recently, no vids yet though, here's some details I found on AvP galaxy:
