The first AVP sucked. Just the fact that it was pg-13 made it stupid cause no gory death scenes lol. The trailer looks awesome though. Gunna see if they have it on watch-movies.net

I saw the movie Christmas day! I must say, I rather enjoyed it a lot. I only had two qualms.
one: I felt that the National Guard units should have done a much better job than they did. Honestly, they were annihilated by aliens in a matter of minutes. We are talking fully loaded, armed to the teeth soldiers here. .50 Cal machine guns, armored transportation with approximately 32 to 64 troops loaded with M-4’s, M-16’s, M203 grenade launchers, hand grenades and the M249 machine gun.
Two: I also felt that the Predator’s could have sent more than they did to contain the outbreak. See the movie, you will know what I mean!
But all in all it was an awesome film!!!

the first one sucked for 1 major reason. 1 Alien killed 2 predators... IMPOSSIBLE!!!! It should be 10 aliens for 1 predator. That pissed me off soo much. Predator Rules!!!!!

I saw the 2nd one yesterday, and I didn't like that it was so !@#$ dark in almost all the fight scenes that I couldn't tell what was going on a lot of the time.

Yeah, but how often do National Guard people face off against spider-looking space aliens? Think of being in that situation, most folks couldn't get past the "deer in the headlights" effect of seeing something like that to even pull the trigger. Your brain just wouldn't register what was happening had this occurred to you in real life. You'd have to be trained to shoot first and question what you're seeing later. Not too many folks, even in the military, would react like that. Even SOCOM operators would probably pause for a moment if faced with something like that in real life. Most couldn't get past the "what the heck IS that?" reaction to be able to do what needed to be done. No amount of weapons is going to help you pull the trigger. I find it funny how people think soldiers have some kind of robotic response to everything. They're just people. Training only goes so far. I know all too well,, having worked with active duty and reserve component forces with Uncle Sam. I haven't seen the movie yet (I will as I'm a huge fan of the Aliens Franchise) but it sounds like a realistic situation. I'd put my money on the Aliens as well. Heck, looked what happened in the second Aliens movie. I think that was pretty realistic in terms of how everyone reacted, as well!

I just got back from seeing it and heres the first thing I have to say. WORST ENDING EVER!! Who the hell is that lady? Why do we care what she does with the gun? Yea it's "Too advanced for us" but why didn't we study it and learn from it or put it in Ft. Knox. But I liked basically every part about this movie besides the ending. I didn't think the dark action scenes were bad, I could see what was going on. It was kinda predicable who would die, but then people didn't who you thought that would. So it evens out I guess. Definitely blows the crap out of the first one.

So you go to a thread for a movie you haven't seen but you go there anyways? How is that my fault.

I agree with russian, you go to the thread to see if the movie is good, and if anybody here likes it, which was the original point of the thread (see first post). DONT SPOIL IT UNLESS YOU CLEARLY STATE THAT YOU WILL IN THE POST!!!!!

DONT SPOIL IT UNLESS YOU CLEARLY STATE THAT YOU WILL IN THE POST!!!!! So everyone's posts should say if its good or not? "Yea I liked it." "No I hated it." We cant talk about the actual thing like "I liked the scene when.." or "I can't believe he did that..." And I don't really see much of a spoiler in my post. Unless you consider "lady" (I didn't even say her name!) "gun" "Worst ending ever" (how can that ruin it for someone? Who says we think alike?) And I suppose what I said about people dying. But I didn't say names so whats the problem with that?

I haven't seen it yet but hopefuly it will not be as dissapointing as the others.

LOL, here is a kinda spoiler at the very beggining of the movie, the chick comes back from the US army, in a Marine corps uniform, with a HUGE USARMY name tape clumsily applied to it, WTF?? the main reason I liked the film, is I enjoy seeing horrible actors getting eviscerated. , maybe it was more the dialoge, but the combat was better then the first film. -Gordak

She was in a USMC uniform? I thought she was wearing army digi camo and there was just bad lighting!
