Okidoki then... straighten that out... gotcha... There is no point FOR YOU, but there is for others...it depends what you value more, the trip or the destination, form or content, FX or story... Knowing a story before hand does not destroy it..if that was so, then after seing one movie, it would have no more use, now would it...? What differentiates a good movie from a bad one is that a good survives everything, the reviews, the test of time, the modernization of film resources, everything... Like I said, Batman begins survived, in my mind, and actually made me longer more to see it, the visual aspects of it... I think this AVP does not even qualify to stand with BB in comparison, not because of the script, but because of the depth that BB has and AVP2 will certainly not have... they are in too different leagues, despite being comic characters... the Story and script treatment is amazingly different, which is easily understandable... For one, Warner is not FOX, thank goodness... second, Chris Nolan is not PWA or the Strause Bros,being so much better director... Third, BATMAN is a far more successsful character in the boxoffice than an Alien or Predator ever be... Those are just facts...
