I was just randomly searching on Google and found a new interview with Colin and Greg Strause on DWScifi. It was posted Jan 15 but I guess we all missed it.
What did you think of the original Alien Vs. Predator?
Colin Strause: Like most of the fans we weren't crazy about the last film. It didn't deliver enough suspense and tension, which I think are the key elements to making a good Alien Vs. Predator film. Requiem begins with the aftermath of the last film, where we see how the Aliens arrive back on earth, especially our Pred-Alien, along with a lone Predator warrior.
Greg Strause: AVP was actually, from a financial standpoint, the most profitable of all of the films – from either franchise. I think Fox was really wise, though, in realising that even though the last film was a financial success, the hardcore fans weren't crazy about the film. We're on the internet message boards all the time, keeping in touch with the fans, and the fans felt that AVP left them cold and unsatisfied. We've taken a whole different approach with this film.
Colin Strause: We feel the pressure to make up for the last film; to regain the fans' trust.
It’s quite an interesting interview. Be sure to check it out.

He ses fans wernt crazy about the first one........lolz i wonder wat he think fans think of this one cuz if he thinks he made the fans happy with this movie then he is very wrong......first comment aswell ::)
the directors will fix there mistake when they make AVP3 These directors gave us the better quality of AVPR because they know bringing more gore and violence would make fans go see since it was Rated R I hope they make AVP3 rated R too.
These guys should never go near the franchise again.
Let's hope they come back since they are true Predator fans. I hope they make the aliens look weak in AVP 3 like they really are. Nothing but mindless drooling freaks. Long live the Predators. By the way it's not always a director's fault on how a movie turns out. It's the casting or even the script or screenwriter's who are to blame.
the giger alien would beat jungle hunter's sorry ass, tony. i wouldnt expect u to understand, accounting that you're 12.
*slaps Tony in the face* mindless drooling freaks.... brat >:(
... i was disapointed about the first AvP... but not like AvP-Requiem who drive me crazy >:( I am a fan of Alien and Predator (not avp... stop this massacre) and i can assure you this movie isn't better than the first avp and you have wrong ... i'm not happy fox give the greenlight to this movie. And about suspense... you think there is more suspense in avp-requiem? not sure...
AvP-R was bad because there were thinking that the movie needs more gore and violence. They need a balance between story and violence. -Avp was too strong focused on story development -Avp R was just a mindless action gore movie. If they can finally find a balance it would be finally great.
I agree with freshbreath3 I say the Straus Bros should make the third AvP movie. And they really have to surprise us more. :)
Tony, you aren't interested in a film like this. What you want is a 'Predator'-exclusive film. If you only want one faction to dominate, that goes against the entire point of the 'versus' concept, when it comes to just about anything.
I hope there aren't any more AvP movies, it's turned into such a joke. All it does is soil the good name of the Alien series. Combining Aliens and Predators was the worst decision Fox ever made.
There was good example of AvP which work, like the comic book. it work to much that dark horse needed print again the series. There was the avp2 game too... maybe the greatest script never made. it's a chief master (the game). but no, fox want destroy their franchise and called bad guy with bad experience and made movie like AvP and AvP-R. if AvP3 is in the line of avp and avp-r : no please, no more massacre! let the alien and predator franchise intact! don't make sucking thing, don't reveal the mysthic things about alien and predator, i feel the worse with space jokey and predator in an avp3 ... stop this franchise. Or wait to have a VERY good script like Alien, Aliens, Predator and Predator 2. (and don't try to make new alien and predator movie if it's in the same spirit like avp...)
Just relax, guys. It doesn't matter if the Strause brothers want to make AVP3. Sure, we will get weak Pussy Aliens which get owned by almighty Predators again. So what? Can you really take this comic universe serious??? This Franchise is never able to write the story of the original Alien story. It doesn't matter what these two fat guys will do with the Space Jockey. They won't never write the Alien story. Just relax. AVP was made for Predator fanboys and action fans since the Strause brothers arrived. You should leave them alone. Tony, did you watch AVP? Our Alien can fix your ugly lizzard man on the ground without problems. And don't forget. Celtic is physically stronger than Wolf. 8) I hope i didn't sound like a stupid fanboy. ;D
I'm more a predator fanboy than alien... and predator in avp aren't predator. they are just teenagers or erradicator like terminator. Fox can do what they want i agree, for me there is only Alien and Predator. AvP are just goodies... a candy for people who want action and gore... not for alien and predator fanboy (and fangirl sorry :D ).
To bad the interviewer didn't ask why avpr ended up sucking also! The alien And predator movies are now dead in the water! R,I,P
Yeah Avp is dead, f**king brothers, I bet I could make a better movie than both Paul Anderson and the Brothers.
From the start it was the worst idea ever-aliens in present time!(probably just to keep low budget I'm sure)--BBUULL $ I--I ! T Ill Say it Again R.I.P badass original movies
Having one Predator ... increases the tension? ...*smashes head against brick wall*
i agree place the sotry of avp in actual day / passt (yeah avp-r is in the passt => 2004) su*k. AvP: Stop This Massacre.
Colin is still called the Predalien a hybrid in this interview, it's a good thing that I don't buy into this idea and consider it to be a hybrid, otherwise who knows what i'll think next.
The Strausses should have been eating their words in this interview now the film has come out.
i love when those two tards blow smoke up our butts.
lmao SiL Ya I don't know about the suppense and tension part. I actually thought this one was a bit worst in that department. What suspense is there to seeing a battle right off the back? The only suppense in the movie was whether or not the blond chick was getting naked. And that whole series of scenes ruined the movie for me. I don't understand why they had to continue the story of the last AVP anyways. Personally I think it would have been better to set it in space. I know that budget was a concern. But who says that it has to be on board an space ship the whole time. Couldn't we have had a human space ship crash onto some mostly uncivalized earth like world. The rest of the story could be about the surviors treking through an forest trying to find some long lost colony that may hold the key to them getting off the planet. Unknowingly to the humans, the world is infested with Aliens and is a prime spot for Predator hunting... Ya I know cheesy, but its no worst then seeing an Alien wack someone in a diner.
the strause didn't do any better than anderson. in fact i thought they did worse. hopefully they get the boot and never go near the franchise again.
Jeez people, if you hated BOTH AvP movies, why don't you just stop coming here to *AvP*Galaxy?
I kike how they regained our trust by shitting all over the franchise
they shouldnt do avp3, I dont want to be disapointed again :-\
People can do w/e they want Krisjohncocksucker and besides I should be the next avp director, I am going to rise the franchise from the ashes, and make a true AVP movie and it will be my masterpiece.
To me the more I think of the movie the more I hate it. This movie messed up the Aliens franchise Why can't we get a great AVP movie, although I like AVP a lot. But alot of other fans hated it. ;D
"Exactly, because the Predators would kill all of the Aliens. The Aliens would do some damage, of course, but the Predators would kill them all because they’re such great warriors and their weapons are so good. " Just shows how much the strause bros are COMPLETE IDIOTS! >:( >:(
All directors and writers know what are the elements that make a film work effectively. It's what effort they put into it and telling what is excellent that makes it better. They didn't put enought effort to make the characters better. They think having scene between characters that, in standards, would be emotional can be just that by having bad lines of dialouge and it badly acted. They think refrences is a great idea to show their fandom while instead shows how uncreative they are by BORROWING great moments. If we put an alien do what it always have done in movies it scary because it was just that before. I just knew it when seeing the first five minutes of AVPR. The Strause Brothers along with all directors of bad films have this exact quote when comparing thier SHIT movies to the the ACTUAL great films. "It's perfect because we (so called) look into our scenes just like the professionals do and know that it works because it's suppose too. You like those other films (Alien, Aliens, and Predator) for these reasons so should feel the just the same with others." People who try to act professional and don't know what the meaning of the word is.
"We got rid of the armour from AVP because we thought, and the fans thought, it looked stupid. Why does he need armour? He didn’t need armour in Predator and if the Aliens get him, they get him." To people at avpgalaxy:Well,lets see,would any of you guys send your kid who never hunted a bear into the forest to hunt one without any protection at all?.Also its f***ing cold in antarctica!.I saw a special on it and its something like -40*F during the summer!. "the Predators would kill all of the Aliens. The Aliens would do some damage, of course, but the Predators would kill them all because they’re such great warriors and their weapons are so good" Ya,sure.I guess they never botherd to read the novels,otherwise they would know of how ten brave Yautja warriors went into a hive armed with only blades and shoulder burners and how only one survived,AND HE WAS HALF DEAD!!!.
Rob-----ski:A-F***ING-MEN TO THAT BROTHER!!!. "Having one Predator ... increases the tension? ...*smashes head against brick wall*" Having TEN preds increases tension,especialy if they get whacked when you dont expect it.I too smash head against brick-wall.
Greenband:Your describing the novel PREDATOR:FOREVER MIDNIGHT,but with aliens.
To ZEN IS THAT AN INSULT OR COMPLIMENT??????
So funny reading this interview especially since AvP was a much better film...
I think that if the Straus bros. were to do AVP3 it should only be AFTER they spent 3-5 days on here reading peoples comments and only AFTER directing at LEAST 5 other movies that have nothing to do with aliens or predators. Also after looking at a few comments and some peoples blogs i think its funny how people throw a fit about sheriff Morales for not calling back-up because of a cop-killer,and not about Herigan for not having THE ENTIRE LAPD going after the guy who killed Danny (his best freind),and on how they throw a fit because of Wolf--who's an elite hunter trained to kill xenomorphs-- killing a dozen or so aliens when the colonial merines were killing dozens of aliens left and right when they had NO IDEA WHAT THEY WERE UP AGAINST!!!!. I mean no disrespect to the opinnions of those who did'nt like this film.I was just pointing out a fact and i was'nt trying to start anything. PEACE OUT!!!!. l..l_ ;D _l..l
Rob-----ski:Sorry,i did'nt see your comment there.It was sapposed to be a compliment.
Ummmm...I lived Aliens vs. Predator Requiem..... *Bolts*
To ZEN Then, thank you. Reason I wasn't so sure was with language such as that I can't tell really. To me that language is reserved for insults. How's this for an idea of AVP3? AVP: QUARANTINE. It's that level in human society in the future in space. The line that seperates us from our known inhabited worlds from the unknown frontier. It maybe government runned but Weyland-Yutani joined by those in the Military being so greedy on persuing on anything to gain power and income and to especially get their hands again on an Xenomorph have infiltrated the infrastrute. It's at that level that the humans, predators, aliens fight to stop or start an outbreak that'll be either for the Alien's nature of survival or Coporate's ultimate weapon that they couldn't control.
HI, i think brothers Staruse must do AVP3, becouse we don't know what people do with Predator gun. AVP3 directors i think must to be PaulW.Anderson and BrothersStrause together, it could to be FANTASTIC movie. 8)
:-\
No please... not an AvP3 direct by Greg and Colin... they had their chance and it was a failure. All Predator and Alien movie have different director. Don't break the gold rules.
Ridley scott should direct the next avp it should be its own film like batman begins where to the other bats. As much as i liked the 2 avps i dont considder them cannon ther there own universe. Only if ridley made avp then it would be cannon.
"however AVP:R is doing very well money wise in the box office and thats all what counts. " lol? your movie make money just cos all people fell in the same trapp like the first avp => bullsh*t If fox give you the greenlight, that really su*k and you will make a new badass movie worst than AvP, AvP-R. Alien and predator franchise are lost...
"All Predator and Alien movie have different director. Don't break the gold rules." Yes, it worked perfectly in the last two... last three movie. ;)
continue the following with same guy who make failure sequel of greattest science fiction movie is a bad choice...
Hey guys check this music video. http://www.filmz.ru/pub/1/13236_1.htm
Le Celticant, Predators in AVP aren't Predators? Then Aliens in AVPR aren't Aliens. 8)
there is no alien and no predator in avp and avp-r in avp, predator are teenager and alien are snake in avp-r predator is terminator, he didn't come fro hunt but for remove alien trace... and alien in avp-r are just ... snake again but stupid snake.
Colin claims this interview is fake,you decide
who knows
the bros strause obviously arent referring to the same film that was released last month. Their contribution to this film was just as bad as the screenwriting, I would not like to see them direct another AVP film. We need a seasoned director who knows how direct.
He is trying to do damage control. Just go back to effects work hack. Also rule number 1. Never post on a fan site if you're directing or writing the movie. Wanna see great acting watch There will be blood.
This liar should be banned on this fanpage. >:(
Well, I don't have the time to post a full response right now, but the interview can be pretty much summed up as "assinine statements galore". ::) You gotta wonder if they even paid attention to the previous films. It's gotten to be extremelu irritating that they (and many other fans) generalize only "hardcore" fans don't (and shouldn't) like the first film. I know A LOT of hardcore fans who not only love the first film, but prefer it over theirs. lol
Heh, Rambo may make more money then AVP-R. Its already made $18.2 m in its first weekend.
I'm confused ???
Even if the almight Ridley Scott and James Cameron did combine for an AVP film it would never be a great film as the premise is very hokey. I loved the original films and the comic series but the only way they could do a truly great AVP film would be to do it animated and I dont mean CGI but done like the Spawn Animated Series. They could do the original Aliens Vs Predator story and it would sell really well on dvd.
i agree with you DECO ...finally sum1 with sense lolz
It's tried and true- TWO WRONGS DON"T MAKE A RIGHT- the third one will suck too.
Thanks SHREK, it seems you and I are on the same page with where this franchise needs to go!!! Thank GOD!!
this interview isn't fake, maybe it's erroneously transcribed, but Dreamwatch magazine was one of our best British magazines before it was reduced to being an online thing
if the Strause brothers make AVP 3 and include the Space Jockey in it, people will start referring to it as The Space Hokey!
FUN FACT: DOES THE AVP PREDS dosen't act like when a children tries to be like its parents and fails miserably? they tried to be cool, but they weren't
God If you're all so unhappy about the film , why don't you direct AvP3 yourselves? I bet U can't make sh*t!!!
I'd happily take that challenge.
Actually, it seems Colin can't remember it, which is different from claiming it's an outright lie and such. It isn't beyond the bounds of possibility, as a high number of them were carried out. In any case, it repeats a lot of things said in other interviews, such as them claiming the original Predators never wore armour, which is clearly false, in anyone's view. :)
I doubt if this interview is legit. I don´t think they would say this: "(...)but the Predators would kill them all because they’re such great warriors and their weapons are so good." Never. If they would say this, they would be shooting their own foot and would be self excluding from directing a third movie. About the The Brothers being Predator fans, well, Paul Anderson was a fan of which species?? I´ll give you a hint:Not Predators... So, i think this franchise needs new blood and new ideas. It needs not just good stories, but being looked at from a new perspective as well.
Rob-----ski:Your idea sounds nifty with the aliens trying to take over,and did you ever think ALIEN:RESSERECTION would do better as an avp film?.I did,imagen after the scene with the water they feal a BOOM and they go "What was that?!".Then 8-10 minutes later a tribe of preds decloak.Then they have to fight their way through them AND the aliens.It would be an hour longer,but the lighting was better suited for aliens and predators rather then just the aliens (I thought it was to bright).But it would have gotten (maybe) a 10/10.Would'nt it have been cool to see super-Ripley and Ron Pearlman going up against the preds?.And the preds watching Ripley at a distance ripping the inner mouth out of the alien and thinking she was taking a trophy?.If the predalien is yellow in that vision mode (in AVP-R),what would Ripley look like?.And would she look normal in the thermal visions?.What do you think of it? ;D .
Deco:Like i said,I loved AVP-R,but if the Straus Bros. were to do another AVP it should be only after they direct 5 or 6 other movies.Hey,ya know what?.They should get Michael Bay for AVP3!.He did ARMEGEDDON and TRANSFORMERS,maybe HE could do the epic AVP we all want!.What do you think? ;D .
Deco:On second thought,make that 50 or 60 other films.
AVPGALAXY:The directors for the ALIEN,PREDATOR and AVP films are like the dish fugu.The first time you try it,you have a very high chance of surviving.The second time around it will probably kill you.
Okay before someone starts riding my a$$,that last comment was mainly directed at the AVP directors and the lat two ALIEN directors.
To Zen: I wasn't in depth enough. AVP: QURANTINE is the sixth and final part of a multiple series I'm coming up. The connection between the Aliens and Predators in a more complex manner rather than hunters breeding "serpents". The origins of the first Aliens created by the Space Jockies hidden within earth. How the Predators come in pocession of them. Why keep them hidden from the Space Jockies? How the modern Homo sapiens came to being? How the space age in the Alien films was accomplished by the Weyland - Yutani? The reason will be more dramatic than from a single Predator pistol. The connection between Predators and Humans will be explored. How they are THE REASON OF CIVILIZATION. Giving us a reason and purpose to exist from our originated states. And the rise and fall of Weyland - Yutani. More dramatic and worse than being "bought out by Wal-Mart".
List of titles: 1) Predator: Bad Bloods 2020's 2) Aliens: Origin 2020's 3) AVP: ? 2020's 4) AVP: Apocalypse 2020's 5) AVP: Site B 2280's 6) AVP: ?Qurantine? 2320's
And through all six stories, there'll be a Predator that'll be in five of them. Being among the cheif driving forces of the story.
Dragon_ash said: "God If you're all so unhappy about the film , why don't you direct AvP3 yourselves? I bet U can't make sh*t!!! " good idea... let me 7 year, i will finish my cinema study and then i will work for some movie company and see what i can do :D
Seeing as this interview is legit, it is a sad day for AvP fans the world over. For starters, just because a movie makes a wadload of cash does not mean fans will like it. Secondly, gore is an element of a great movie that directors will employ as a tool to their movie, much like power drills and sanders. Thirdly, present day is not as interesting as the future as we *live* in the present, 2008. Fourthly, you actually cared a bout Kane, Dallas, Hicks, Newt, Ripley et al in the previous movies because they had character development. Mention the word Dallas or Morales and people will hang their heads in shame because they are THE most underdeveloped and could not be cared less for. Finally: they *would* deny or not "remembering" this interview as they would've already seen results from Dec 25th showings from countries like Australia, go you good thing!!, so by Jan 15th it is pretty clear that a film would've tanked. PLUS the whole theatrical run was finished by Australia Day, Jan 26th so that's saying something. Finally what is that bullshit about the armour? The pred from the first movie had ceremonial armour, just look at the shoulder and calve muscles on his legs.
no suspense in the 1st AvP huh? ??? did manage to muster some into your shyt Requirem?? ::) All the actors were badly chosen.
They should have made the movie in the future. Around the Aliens time. That would be kick ass.
I agree with dane Setting AVP3 on space in the aliens planet Which i think the movie should have the alien runners or alien dogs we call them in ALIEN 3, bring the alien queen,alien warriors, bring at least three predaliens. I think the predaliens should have the predator's weapons: Spear, Plasma caster, and smart disc. they should create the alien king and try to surprise us by his ability. few marines and three predators wait one predator, because it would be like DIE HARD with one predator killing hundreds of aliens. AVP3 should be rate R and should be at 2 hours and 15 minutes.
I forgot to say that the WEYLAND - YUTANI CORP. should be in AVP3. AVP3 should be at after ALIEN 3 event, when the company is about to shutdown but they will try to capture the queen, but the predators will the company down for taking the predator's weapon in AVPR I think the marines should work together with the predators in order to survive. that would be cheesy, what do you think.
I'm just glad some of you fans never direct anything. :P
Predhunter, Anderson speaks in teh original features about claiming that nobody has watched the films of both factions as much as he has. He was a fan of both of them. Freshbreath, no. 'Alien Resurrection' canonised that Ripley's encounters with the creatures were the last ones they knew about.
I loved AVP-R and liked AVP, but if the 3rd AVP is to be done, it needs Ridley and Cameron on it. I currentley writing my own AVP film which is set in space on LV4-26 thats all iam saying, and i'am writing it so it'll be a 2hour 30min war flick, (to me if AVP was ever made it should be like a space version of Black Hawk Down) I've just watched all the Alien/Predator films and have a few actors in mind while writing it, (Kurt Russell as my general in the script) they'll be hundreds of Alien's and hundreds of Predators with the 'humans caught in the middle' part but all my characters are being written as badass mothers and the odd reference to the old flick's (in one part of my script on the ship going to LV4-26 where the marines are chilling out/training/preping the song from Predator 1 (on the helicopter) playing in the background, oh and an android as well, to keep in tradition to the Alien franchise. Iam calling it ALIENS VS PREDATOR: EXSTINCTION video game buffs will like that My tagline (may change) would be:- This Summer One will Become A Myth And One Will Become A Legend I dont know it's just fun thats all,
I meant to say After Alien 3 but before Alien resurrection the weyland - yutani corp. is about to shutdown, but the company located xenomorphs on unknown planet, they send expandable marines. the predator was sent to destroy the hive.
I can't help but go "LOL" when reading this excerpt: "One Predator against an army of Aliens seems like a more suspenseful battle than an army of Aliens against an army of Predators. Colin Strause: Exactly, because the Predators would kill all of the Aliens. The Aliens would do some damage, of course, but the Predators would kill them all because they’re such great warriors and their weapons are so good. That’s why the Pred-Alien is such a great monster." Boy, you wanna talk about gross misconceptions of both species. :-\ If this interview is legit and the Strause Bros. truly believe this, then they're even more ignorant than many fans have come to suspect. Stupidity claims yet another rabble of victims. ::)
Bio Mech Hunter:I totaly agree with you,they made themselves sound smart a few weeks back,but they're just a couple of idiots,they obviously never read some of the novels."Having one pred builds suspence..." Blah blah blah.Anderson had it right with multiple preds,because you could'nt tell which one would make it to the end.And as for superior fire-power,it does'nt matter what weapons you use,or how you use them,because sooner or later the Black Warrior is gonna get ya,weather its one baby drone that bursts from your chest or being stuck in the middle of three warring hives or a one-on-one with just a simple drone.And in the novel AVP:PREY,did Yeyinda not say about the warriors and the hive?.Idiots..... Rob-----ski:Dude!.Thats a lot of movies!.Not saying its bad,just saying it sounds really awesome! ;D .I'm not sure if it would do better as a series of movies or as a mini-series! ;D .As the guy from ROBOCOP said "I LIKE IT!!!".I always wanted to see one pred in multiple movie,not like the preds in AVP who died in AVP-R,but like the elder from P2 being in another film and not getting killed.Souens awesome man! ;D .
Bio Mech Hunter:Also,maybe they should watch EVIL DEAD.That movie had very intense scenes and there was more suspence in the first half hour then what there was in AVP AND AVP-R PUT TOGETHER!!!! (especialy in the celler). PEACE!!!. l..l_ ;D _l..l
Sorry, Xenomorphine but i still don´t agree with you...Paul Anderson gave too much Protagonism to Aliens. At the end of that Alien-Predator fight we end up with a super alien that alone kills as many Predator as he encounters. That hand-to-hand combat should have had a diferent outcome.
Did Paul Anderson and the Straus bros read any literature before shooting the films at all? I mean, even 1 novel out of the whole universe? Hmmmmm
Heres my take on AvP3. The Predators have hunted almost everything to extinction in the known universe. The space jockey scientists are the last hope and send a lone warrior pilot to deliver their latest horror of weopons upon the predator planet, oviously the pilot never makes it and crashes on some rock called LV426. Oviously theres alot more to all this but not to give anything else away. 8) 8) 8)
Sulaco you're a GD Genius, maybe we should put 2 and 2 together
To Sulaco: "Predators hunted almost everything to extinction" DREADFUL IDEA. It completely goes against the predator's respectful sportmanship and honor system in hunting. They don't kill pregnant because they carry the continuing survival of their species. What's so thrilling about hunting so much now when you there's nothing left to hunt later? In the AVP series a large amount of the stories are when the ALIENS get out of control and the Predators go there to stop them, because if the Aliens spread they eliminate all their hunting species. Unlike us humans, who only care about how much they hunt today, they would preserve the "hunting reserves" for generations, like we use to in the acient times.
To ZEN: WOW!!!!! Thank you for the praise to seem to have given me. I worry posting anything from what's in my head to the public because I fear failure and rejection from people's judgement. People who don't know better.
thegodfather: I like your stuff too, the Kurt Russell would work, I thought Benicio Deltoro would have worked good for the sherriff in avpr. P.S To give you an idea of my war movies at home: Apocolypse now, Platoon, Saving P R, BlachHawk D, Full Metal J, Bourne on 4th July:
Rob: Not all Predators are the same.
thegodfather: Actually I'm a GD idiot, come to think of it my story makes no sense, because of previous installments to the franchises, back to the drawing board.
Rob-----ski:I basicaly dont give a s**t about what people think of me,i just dont do anything that would seriously embaress my family or piss them off.I'm not going to conform myself just to make some jackass happy.You should start thinking the same way,it makes life a lot easier ;D . Rob-----ski & Sulaco:The preds would never hunt anything to extinction,because what if in the end theres nothing left to hunt?.It would just be them,and they would never hunt themselves because it go's against their religion.Remember what happened in PREDATOR:HOMEWORLD #1-4?.Its sorta like that.The elder wupped the rogue preds a$$es! ;D .
Zen: I'm in developement hell with my avp3 script.
Sulaco:Same here.But I"m coming up with some cool ideas.So hopefully people will like it ;D .
Sulaco: Good war flicks my friend, dont give up on the script, i'am on page 20 now, so in about 10 pages time the carnage truley gets underway Oh i've also put Matthew Keys in me version, Great grandson of Peter Keys, in my mind played by Jake Busy, nice link there.
thegodfather: Where you from man? I'm in Seattle and Zens somewhere on the East coast, I like your ideas! 8)
Are they freaking kidding or what ?? AVP seems like a Oscar Winner compared to that new piece of Crap. AVPR Killed the franchise, thanks guys for f&#king up another movie.
Predhunter: "Sorry, Xenomorphine but i still don´t agree with you...Paul Anderson gave too much Protagonism to Aliens. At the end of that Alien-Predator fight we end up with a super alien that alone kills as many Predator as he encounters. That hand-to-hand combat should have had a diferent outcome." Hmm... I have to disagree with you on that. Despite a few hickups on the part of the Aliens, I feel Anderson did a great and respectful job of our favorite bio mechanical terrors (regarding a faithful and accurate portrayal). There were a few things that needed adjustment (some that would’ve made perfect sense had Fox not cut certain scenes), but overall I think he did the species justice. Which is much more than I can say for the countless majority of AVP comics, novels, games, and of course, AVP:R. I tend to get a lot of flack for this following statement, but I believe, given the context of the situation and their ranks, the Predators in the first film were accurately portrayed using logic and common sense when pitting them against such creatures as the Aliens (which includes their extra armor and their specific armament). Not that there weren't any problems at all. lol But I think they were very well done. I also find the shortened mandibles and extra teeth argument to be a non-issue given their relatively young age. The only problem would be the elder, but again, that could be a result of budget and time constraints.
I don't see Grid as a "super" Alien at all either, but rather an Alien recognizing the nasty threat that are the Predators, and maximizing it's ability to combat them. Granted, I also think the battle should've gone a bit differently, but I think the end result would've and should've been the same. My reasoning being because it demonstrates the Aliens are a terrible threat, not to be trifled with, and a truly worthy opponent for such an honorable and powerful race as the Predators. The Aliens are suppose to be the ultimate prey, and as such, are given the "honor" of being used as the final test for Predators entering adulthood. If they are watered down severely and are made so easy to kill like in AVP:R, the comics, games, etc., what the heck makes them the "ultimate" prey? Sounds to me like Preds shouldn't even waste their time. I personally feel that if Anderson was able to implement 5 Preds like he originally wanted, rather than the 3 we ended up with, I don't think it would've bothered us so much.
Le Celticant... Why do you keep coming back to hate on this movie?? If you really dont like it, then leave it alone. I dont see how any fan can HATE this movie... but I can see how a lot are dissapointed. Theres a lot of movies I dont like... but I dont go around to all the message boards talking crap about them... I just leave them alone. Theyre only movies for christsakes.
Hmmm. is right you people should be ashamed of yourselves talking crap about this movie. the directors work their asses off to entertain and you talk shit to them. if you were directing a movie, you learn your mistakes and make another movie so shut up and move on AVPR had disappointment but at least they showed gore and violence. that's how it is suppose to be.
Sulaco: Dude i'am in the U.K, Thought out 1 battle in my AVP:E film, it's a 4-way fight a Human soldier named 'wolf' (who is like billy with Mark Dasacos playing the role with little to say) a Predator, an Alien and the Pred-Alien. However the Pred-Alien in my version isnt very friendly towards the Alien and is really on it's on side killing anything that gets in its way, New weapon for the Predator is a tomahwak like weapon Predator style, Soldier wolf also has human like tomahawk weapon as well, The hybrid wins in the end.
thegodfather: Dude I'm lost with my script... I've just got some space jockey ideas. Reading your comment I can reflect years ago, when I use to paintball... I went around to military surplus and came up with gear that matched Billys from predator. When I use to race motocross, my helmet back in the day, say 98 was custom painted with original predator face on the back { expensive, detailed @ cool} Maybe I can get this stuff up on myspace someday, what do you have for collectibles? ;D
Sulaco: For me I watched all 8 alien/Predator films and Black Hawk Down, then i sit in me room with a pad think out action sequences and remember various memorable bits in the films, and think to myself what new things need to happen, In my new version i have a character Bishop Weyland who is a emotional wreck as he is clearly hanging on to the co-orp he's losing to, William H Macy is in my mind for the role here, Iam clearly aiming to write for talent alone.
Sulaco: I only have the 1992 Aliens action figures, one Predator toy (92) and an Alien Ressurection figure,
