Poll: AvP vs AvPR

[DaddyYautja]

 

No, come think of it.
A ship crashes in a town, unleashing a bunch of evil Alien Monsters (critters/aliens).
An Alien (of a different species) comes in to clean the mess (cleaner humanoid/Wolf Predator).
Ah, the originality! And Critters while being a 80's B-Movie beats the crap out of AvPR anytime.

Yes, that's the whole template of horror, a small town get's attacked by some random unknown monster. Whether it's a space monster or some nutter running around doesn't change the base it was built on. They are horror films.

[SpaceMarines]

That's not the template of horror; that's the template of slasher. There's a difference.

wish Avpr wasnt so dark, so i could ya know see whats happening...... Still better then watching scar and his brothers fail at everything but kill six dudes with handguns, gee that was impressive.

[Crazy Joe Davola]

AvP-R for a few reasons.

Rated R, Wolf Predator, a alien doesn't kill 2 Predators by himself, it takes longer than 10 mins for a alien to form into a drone(nice one Paul Anderson  ), the Predator(s) don't look as if they have been shot up on steroids, dual plasma cannons (a fanboy wish), and finally the Predator in Requiem acts as a actual Predator instead of the incompetent Fearsome Threesome Paul Anderson graced us with.

...Because the AvPR Aliens took a lot of time to completely molt, right?

[Crazy Joe Davola]

Yeah longer. If I'm not correct a time lapse happened of a night or so which would be plenty of time for a alien to grow, not 10 mins like in AvP.

I fixed that problem COMPLETELY by buying the blu ray version and watching it in the dark. Far better when you can see everything.

This is very very close for me. I'd end up going with AVPR because of the Predators themselves and the better atmosphere. The director for AVP is biased towards Xenoes and what I heard is that is why Celtic lost the fight to Grid and also why there was a Alien "hero" in the first place. AVPR for me.

BuT thAT alieen wuz part predatOr, so thats y it wuz soo strong!!1!!111!oneone!1

lol, Just kidding

but seriously, I like AVP better than AVPR because the creatures were balanced. That made the fight scenes entertaining. In AVPR, except for the Predalien, the Aliens couldn't even hurt the Predator.

[Crazy Joe Davola]

Ah the Predalien..........well every Predator from that ship are pusscakes. If a Alien can walk up behind them and kill them they deserve to die. Wolf was a consummate professional took out the Predalien all by his lonesome. Plus I don't mind the Predalien raping to a degree she is a lot more powerful than a useless drone. Half the reason why the grid alien killing the 2 predators pisses me off so much is that in the end the grid alien goes out like a bitch just like all the other drones. There was no purpose to him.

[SpaceMarines]

Except the Predalien is a drone; go figure.

[Crazy Joe Davola]

A queen I thought or some hybrid. Either way I have to believe a PredAlien drone is stronger than a regular drone. For the obvious reasons.

Chet was meant to be a step above the Predators. The Strause brothers explained this in an interview.
