    And replying to myself... when I clicked on the link for the Official site I got a runtime error... when I clicked 'no' it loaded a featurette interview with the director (guy who did Res Evil... so not sure how this will go, I found Res Evil to be average really).
  • C_MonC_Mon A Genuine Sucker
    THEY MADE tHE FILM!!! WOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Still I hope it'll be good enough.
  • RhettRhett (Not even a monkey)
    Im definately excited they are making the film, but I doubt it will come close to the excellence of Aliens... The trailer I thought was crap, but it is really early in development...
  • Rogue TraderRogue Trader Somebody stop him...
    they picked probably the worst director to direct it. and stan winston isnt doing the effects.

    i want it to be good, but it will suck HARD.

    remember wing commander?

    No way, its going to be much much worse than that.

    Look at the bright side, if you go in expecting it to be the worst movie ever, it has a very good chance of exceeding your expectations :D

    I bet I could make a better avp movie...argh now I'm getting ideas! *runs*

  • Okay, I can't follow this bs.... I don't get the time-line thing.

    First of all, as we all know from the "ALIEN" Series, THAT is all in the future, where as the PREDATOR and Pred.2 are in the past. Now I can understand that the Predators have been around a long time, and perhaps Aliens, too.... but HUMANS don't discover the Aliens until far into the future!! So wtf?!?!!?

    The Predators have been comming to Earth to hunt, as far back as (at least) 1715 (inscribtion on Colonial era flint-pistol thingie, in Predator 2). They DID have a few Alien heads in there (at least thats what they looked like), but they could have gotten those from anywere. So, I assume that they continue to visit Earth every 30 years or so, far into the future. As far as we (the humans) are concerned, Aliens don't even EXIST for us, yet! heh. The first known instance of them, will be when the Nostrodomo (or whatever it was called) discovers, and explores LV-425.


    Well, I'm glad that at least they got the COMPUTER games right!! lol. That's all in the future, so it is concievable. You got the colonial marines fighting Aliens and Predators, and shit.

    Now as for this movie.... hmm. I can't figure where these aliens came from, and how they got to Earth. Unless, of course, the Predators brought them there, using Earth as their little "playground." - To train their "teenage" Predators.

    Also, I think this idea about how the predators were the Egyptian gods, and built all the pyramids, etc.... I think that's all B.S.

    I think they oughtta stick to the original story, that Predators come to Earth every 30 years or so, just to hunt.... and that's it. Not to build temples, and enslave a race of people and make them worship 'em and BS like that.

    If they want to make it a bit more interesting, or realistic... I don't think it should take place on Earth, AT ALL. The movie should be far into the future... and perhaps it should take place on an alien planet, or planets... and perhaps even on Space installations, and ships. AND... They DEFINATELLY need to get those UCM dudes in there!!! :D Wicks (Michael Bain/Bane, whatever) was awesome!

    A cool scene with that might be: A small group of United Colonial Marines (UCM) are on patrol in the woods, when suddenly they get ambushed by a larger force of Aliens. Just when it's looking really bad, when the survivors are about to be overwhelmed, guess who comes to save 'em.... The Predator(s)!!! Hehehe... Or, how about, the Predators just happen to be in the right place at the right time, or maybe they were stalking the Aliens... and since the Aliens stopped to engage the Marines, the Predators were able to catch up to 'em, and thus are able to slaughter every last one of 'em. (The surviving Marines, get away, during the mayhem, so the Predators don't turn on them after they're done with the Aliens.) Or... maybe the Marines have been ordered to capture one of these "Predator" things that have been hunting humans for hundreds of years. They get on the trail of one of 'em, and are able to stalk it, and corner it - becase it was hunting Aliens, and the Marines weren't his primary concern, when suddenly the Aliens he was hunting come in the ruin the Marines' day. :D:D:D The, Marines, being caught off-guard, fight for their lives, while the Aliens are slaughtering everything they can get their claws on. The Predator is mostly ignoring the humans, and is attempting to take Alien skulls, for his collection. *Fade out to space*

    The orbitting UCM ship is suddenly engaged by 2 smaller, Predator space ships. [Insert cool space-battle here]

    hehehe... Okay, my imagination is running wild... I'd better go catch it, before it runs away.

    Just whatever they do, do NOT bring back Sigourney Weaver again! lol Please, no more Ripley!!! How many times can she possibly die, for pitty's sake!?!?!?

    Anyway... that's my 2 cents.

    Edit: Did I say "WICKS"? I meant: "Hicks!" heh. Or Hix, for short. :D
  • OK, heres how AVP2 does it.

    earth establishes colony on an alien inhabited world (As seen in movies). This wold however, is also one of the MANY planets predetors go to hunt (They hunt xenomorphs)

    ergo, no problem.
  • RhettRhett (Not even a monkey)
    Wait wait wait... they are setting this movie in the present??? damn that is stupid
  • C_MonC_Mon A Genuine Sucker
    Damn, when I heard the interview it all sounds as it's going to suck more than Alien 4: ressurection(or something). Zoltan's ideas were much better and also it should be in the future and no Predator as gods thing.
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    Wow, I knew it was going to suck, but setting it in the present is just plain stupid.

    Yeah, what nonsense. Everyone knows that the Egyptian gods were really the Goa'uld. :p

    DUNGEON SIEGE?!?!?!!? WTF?!?!?!?! Oh man.... gimmie a freakin' break! Someone put me back in the 'fridge.

    So they have an ALONE IN THE DARK: [B]MOVIE[/B] ? Wow... Now THAT I actually WANT to see! :D

    That game was actually pretty cool! I loved it. (Never played any of the sequels tho, so I don't know about those..) It would make a pretty good movie, assuming they don't f*ck it up like the way they f*cked up Resident Evil: GC (Game Cube). That game was so totally different from the Original, it was just all BS. I didn't like it at all. They changed it way too much. :eek:

    Is there still talk of a Quake/Doom movie? Now that idea has been round the block a few times

    Doom is in development hell.

    Now that's just going too far.

    Well, about the AvP movie...
    Partly the storyline about the Predators using Aliens as Training-objects does make sense. They could have engineered the Aliens, and then, sometime in the future, before the first Alien Movie, the Predators are overwhelmed and destroyed by their creation... that would explain why there are no sightings of Predators in the Alien movies.

    though setting the movie in the current time is just bullshit.
    I mean, they have Lance Henriksen in the movie, they could have made something like this:
    Predators let aliens free on a colony world, aliens get to many, Predators get support, big "war" with the human colonists in between, beeing slaughtered ´by both sides. The only one on the planet that isn't targeted by either side is a bishop-series robot (because he's not organic), and he has to figure a way out to save the humans (because of his programming). Now what could be a cool (or crappy) ending to this storyline: there's a bishop-factory on the planet, and he goes there, reprogramms the robots to be warriors, and then inthe end thousands of bishops duke it out with the aliens and predators... *ggg*

  • Rogue TraderRogue Trader Somebody stop him...
    Lets not forget that Predator 2 took place in the near future of that distant time, 1997.

    So its supposed to be in the future, its not its fault that we have just trended along beyond that time.
