I heard someone say here that AVP didn't have enough gore. IMO, I liked it the way it was. The fights between the Preds and Aliens should be gory, and they were, but I didn't mind everything else.

He only looked skilled because his enemies were dipshits. :)
Nah, the aliens would be fine if Wolf did not have all his tools and weapons. If you take those away from him he would be killed early in the movie because Predators rely on weapons and tools but Aliens have razor teeth, claws, and tail as well as acid blood.

^^ Not in AvP:R though. The aliens had a few chances to kill Wolf but didn't even put up a decent fight.

Only real exception being in the power plant when it sent him flying off the catwalk.

What was the point of Wolf skinning the police officer? Was he trying to use him as bait or did he just do that for fun?

Just what Predators do. Nothing more.

They both kinda tie.  I would say AVP probably if I had to choose one.

Wasn't he trying to eliminate all evidence of an alien infestation? If so, why did he waste time when aliens could be breeding all the while?  And why leave evidence of him being there?

That's exactly what I've been thinking, why waste the time to do that? I suppose the Predator was playing to the audience to show them that he was for real, this movie is rated R for a reason, and if you mess with a Predator, he's got the tools and attitude to not think twice before skinning you!

tools, attitude and lack of sense. :p

In the AvPR commentary the Strause brothers did say it didn't make any sense, but they did want to pay homage to the original Predator movie.

And that Alien was still being stupid. It could have speared him through the stomach from behind, but no, it has to jump right in front on him, screetch and then bitch slap him. :P

Since he was a veteran Predator I assume three things:

1) The skinning didn't take very long
2) There's nothing about the skinning that suggests an alien presence
3) The aliens hadn't spread to the point of being out of control until quite some time later

I don't think it has to make sense, it was just cool seeing a guy skinned by a Predator. And I suspect that's what was going through the Strause Bros. heads. Or perhaps it had been a while since Wolf had gone on a hunt, so he treated himself by decapitating an innocent onlooker.

Hated avp with a passion.  I can stand avpr.  LOVE how they brought back original sounds from the older movies.  Still wish that they would make the cannon sound like a whip again like in the original predator movie unless they had it added but I didnt hear it.  Avp way to goofy. Avp closer but still way off.

Wait, you're basing your opinion on an entire movie because of the sounds? Any other problems?
