Eight of the best chosen as the ultimate prey from our planet for the hunt this season. plus a secret bonus hardcase from the last one.
 
 
CAN'T WAIT TO SEE . . . . . .

Apprehensive. AVP and AVP2 were some of the absolute worst movies I have ever seen in my life, period. This is not an exaggeration.

I liked AVP it brought back some of the tension/thriller back to both franchises which was lost in its entirety for AVP2 with its aimlessly wandering plot

[Snail]

AVP2 was the only movie I've ever walked out of.

[redsniper]

I heard this one sucked.

[Satellight]

You heard right...  

Spoiler:

But, just for the scene with the blond-haired women smashed by the Predator's disc, it IS fun <in a drunken state>

EDIT : I have learned how to use this spoiler thing recently... 

[Nuclear1]

Saw it last night...it wasn't awful, but it wasn't anything I'd go and see again.

Spoiler tags, please. We watch these things to figure out who lives and who dies.

RottenTomatoes reviews are actually positive so far.

EDIT: nvm sounds like you were talking about AVP2.

I thought the part Satellight is referring to was in AVPR....

The topic on the CBT forums is abuzz with good things as well.

AVP2 was the worst film ever made in film making history. It was inexcusably bad. It offended me how mind-numbingly bad that move was. I felt like someone went and ripped off my testicles and said that I didn't have any better way to spend 2 hours of my life, and that watching a bunch of cardboard cutouts being killed was somehow a good use of my time. ****ing bastards. Go burn in hell. Seriously. **** off.

Aaaaaanyway.... I might go see Predators depending on what you peepl say. And if I can find anyone to go there with...

Yes, it was AVP2. I understand that people don't like horror films like the Alien serie or Schwarzenegger-action-movies like Predator, but i just can't understand how the mix between them was so... hummm... awful ? It lacks the spirit of both these series I LOVE (especially Alien). It just... doesn't work.

BTW, sorry for the spoil

[Kosh]

AVP2 was actually better than the first. Not by much, but still. It wasn't a classic by any measure, but it wasn't too bad. It could have easily been much worse.

Maybe. I didn't get past the first 30 minutes.

[Aardwolf]

I heard someone complaining that one of the predators in "Predators" eats 6 grenades and walks off without a scratch.

And by "eat" I mean in the gaming sense, not the literal sense.

[Klaustrophobia]

i saw this tonight.  don't waste your time.  it was soooooo damn cheesy, and 100% predictable.  it was almost even like a remake of the original with a different team in a different jungle.

[Colonol Dekker]

Hmmmm.
 
I don't like that much. Seeing as in the first an m203 shell emptied into a leaf managed to disable the Preds cloak.
 
 
Still looking forward to seeing the reboot though.

well, that's them fooking n00b tubes for ya.
ruining games and cloaks since 2007

[Colonol Dekker]

No no no no no no.............

I meant a pred can take 6 grenades in the recent films. But back in the first 1987 film Arnie fries the cloak with an explodey-arrow.


It appears they have upgrades nowadays.

An explody arrow that was shot at a pile of concealed explosives. It was fried because it was a lucky hit that fried its wrist computer, it still didn't do anything to its other armored sections. After all, it took several more of those and even though it was bleeding it STILL wouldn't go down.

[Flipside]

I didn't think it was very much in the Predator 'ethos' to have honour-based combat where one side is wearing the equivalent of several inches of steel plated armour, that really doesn't sound like the way I imagined them.

Edit: Though, in honesty, I never quite understood the Predators 'Thermonuclear Deathsplosion' either, why wipe out a large area simply because the hunt ended badly? That sort of goes against the image of them that was put forward as well, destroying the evidence of their existence, that I can understand, but that just seems a little over the top.
