    That does look kinda good, but the whole arm thing was a bit cheesy, like somebody pointed out on there.

    Unfortunately, it seems like it's going to have a 16's rating when it gets released over here.

    Also, GREAT! I don't need to worry about being 5 minutes late for this movie :)

    Why is that unfortunate? The current sensor pretty much slaps a 16 rating on anything that deals with an unrealistic subject matter, regardless of how bloody it is. Planet Terror was 16's. Hell, Land of the Dead and Final Destination 3 were only 15A!

    It's looking quite good. Hopefully it won't disappoint like the original.

    i cannot wait for this to arrive

    big fan of the predator and alien series, although the first avp wasnt that great i still enjoyed it, and the thought of the two colliding done properly sounds gr8.

    Talked to seem people who have seen this and said its awesome and WILL NOT dissapoint.

    And seemingly the predator is back to his killing human ways, seemingly brilliant.


    this is probably my most anticipated film of 08 along with batman

    plenty of fighting in those trailers , the store showdown etc, avp was too brief, im not sure hte pred alien looks scary enough

    As opposed to an 18s rating that the previous films in their franchises had originally (admitted Terminator 2 was 15' - On a side note: Terminator 1- 18's, Terminator 2 - 15's, Terminator 3 - 12's, Terminator 4 - PG?)

    Looks alright. The first one was so horribly predictable and not enough of the whole Alien Vs Predator.

    And do you remember the tagline for the first one "Who ever wins,We lose" Yeah....

    The one line you don't want to hear is "lets go find our friend".

    The tagline for this is pretty good:

    "On Earth everyone can hear you scream"

    I'm really looking forward to this.

    Also, can I ask? What was it that everybody seemed to hate about the first one?

    It really felt like a tv movie to me. Was disappointed


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    The only flaw I could draw up was that it wasn't violent enough.

    I thought it wasn't half bad.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,339 ✭✭✭✭tman


    Looks pretty damn awesome actually, I'll definitely be heading to the cinema to see it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,589 ✭✭✭✭Necronomicon


    I don't think I'll watch the 5 minutes, but I can't wait. Really looks like it could be great from the R trailer, how AVP should've been.

    I'm not worried about 16 cert, as Havok mentioned above, Land of the Dead was 16 and that was pretty violent.
    I'm really looking forward to this.

    They took two of horror's most iconic figures and put them together in a 12a movie!

    Not that it was much good up to the half way point but when all of a sudden it turns in to a buddy movie with heroine joining forces with a predator it becomes a complete joke. I mean please. Maybe the sequel could have been her and pred working for the NYPD tracking a mysterious serial killer who leaves nothing but traces of acidic goo at the crime scene.

    This is looking good. Here's hoping for a good old fashioned bloodbath and hopefully the Predator(s) will kick more ass than in the first film.

    It turned the Predator into a pussy.

    The scene where it gives the woman a shield made out of an Alien's head made me want to cry.

    That would actualy be awesome.
    I can't say I was that bothered by the Predator teaming up with a human plot.
