AVP3 Ideas

[RakaiThwei]

That's not what makes a good movie, if anything they need to reboot AVP with the legitimacy to be it's own universe with great story and characterisation.

We don't need a reboot. Hollywood is over-saturating it's audiences with reboots, if anything else.

Also, I would thin that the AvP universe is it's own universe contrary to what a lot of people out there believe. Yes, it does have ties to the first two Predator films, and the Alien films but at the same time it's a parallel universe to the Predator and Alien universes.

Having that said, the AvP movies need a retcon. The first movie is fine, but Requiem probably needs a retcon and replacement.

EDIT: OK I've refined this idea.

A team of 5 honorable predators who refuse to kill any species for the sake of killing are hired by an elder predator to rescue predators believed to be in alien hands.. Along for  the ride is a 6th predator and old friend of the lead predator, this 6th predator is there to ensure the job is done right. They get dropped in the middle of a jungle environment and quickly track down the alien hive.

Spamming predator noob tubes and wiping the place out easily. Turns out the already dead captured predators are bad bloods, also the 6th predator is revealed to be a bad blood who wanted revenge on the aliens and used the honorable predators to get the job done. The honorablepredators are disgusted with the bad blood predator but agree to take him back with them.

As they head for the rendezvous point they are attacked by an unseen foe. They start to be taken out one by one with no idea who or what is hunting them. After two predators are quickly taken out the remaining predators declare that they are being hunted by a demon who makes trophies of predators and decide to make a stand. They form a variety of traps in an effort to capture the invisible hunter to no avail. One of the predators is crippled by a failed trap. One of the predators, a good friend of one of the already slain predators, goes on a frenzy trying to take out the seemingly unstoppable foe. The bad blood to restore honor decides to help out the frenzied predator but they both die gruesome deaths.

One of the honored predators decides to make a last stand in an attempt to buy time for the clan leader to carry his injured brother to safety but is easily slain. The final two predators upon hearing the death of their comrade realize they cannot outrun it and must fight. The unstoppable beast takes out the crippled predator easily. The leader predator uses his weaponry but the foe disarms him.

What ensues is a violent game of cat and mouse as the predator discovers weaknesses in it's stalker's methods. Eventually leading to an epic showdown which involves the hunter unmasking himself and revealing his true identity...

Spoiler

The demon who makes trophies of predators is ahnold. He calls the predator one ugly mother****er before they get into a bare handed fistfight and ahnold wins before the predator gets a lucky shot with a trap and ahnold is badly injured.

Ahnold cannot self terminate so he just calls for backup and a dozen more ahnolds emerge from hiding and take their wounded away. The predator is rewarded with an ancient weapon taken from fallen predators long ago and told to take it before the ahnolds leave in a space ship.

A group of bad bloods confront the the sole surviving predator who is walking off into the sunset chuckling. They declare in frustration that they came so close. He tells them that they will get another chance and the bad bloods leave.

Why bother trying to fit around an uninspired uinverse that has terrible design elements (AR Aliens and Wrestler Predators) why cling to something mediocre if someone with a vision can re-do the entire thing remaining faithful to the original creatures and telling something with a point, not just "monster mash no.24546"

Remake Die Hard, replace John McClane with a predator, replace Hans and his men with aliens.
Remake bloodsport. Replace all characters with aliens and predators. Van Damme = young predator ready to prove himself. Replace bolo with predalien.
Remake terminator. Replace Sarah Connor and Kyle Reece with a single alien, replace terminator with predator.
Remake Rambo part 2. Replace rambo with predator, replace everyone else with Aliens.
Remake gladiator. Replace every good character with predators, Russel Crowe = predator. Replace all bad characters with aliens.
Remake Aliens, replace Colonial Marines with Predators. Replace ripley with female predator nobody respects until later.
Remake Lone Wolf McQuade, replace everyone with aliens and predators, replace chuck norris with god.
I can keep going.

[Kimarhi]

You can't remake Lone Wolf McQuade.  BLASPHEMY.

[blood.]

I actually haven't even seen it lol, I'll have to do something about that immediately.

[blood.]

Add to the list a remake of the ghost and the darkness except the people are vikings and the two lions are an alien and a predator who don't like each other.

Rocky IV where Rocky is a Predator and Dolph is a PredAlien.

I'm prefer a story outside earth... in some planet, which originally appears to be a large scale hunting ground.
the entire planet is hunting ground between xenomorph and several Predator's clan, who sent their representative for the game. Colonial Marine, human, doesn't know about this, and landed on the planet as this planet has similarity with earth in nature.
The climax will be battle between the yautja's clans , clash with humans, and finally they need to work together to fight their primary nemesis, the xenomorph. the Xenomorph will rely on their numbers as ussually , but I prefer that the real danger is coming from a group xenomorph drone (being a classic xenomorph) that apparently exceptional far more clever and cunning than their rigged warrior counterpart, more, every of them excell in different skill. The predator doesn't realize it, until several of their clans is massacred. In the other side , the predators who also have their main cast, a group of veteran and skilled warrior. So I want to see how they fight between a clever and cunning xenomorph versus a veteran and skilled predator in single or tag team melee combat. Too much for the predator's surprise, rather than relying on their sheer number, a single xenomorph is proved to be a match or more for a single veteran predators. For human, it will be a survival mission.

Ive thought  about changing the heroes to a group  of "punk"  kids  maybe 12-14.

  For AVP2 continuity  as the predator ship  is  flying to the crash in Gunnison   a group of eggs are ejected    from the damage and land in the Gulf of Mexico  where they float to   different areas  One   drifts  near a female is tanning   in an  isolated  private area where she  gets  facehugged.   Her scene  is when   she is making love to her BF     and he has  his arms    in a way   she is  in a sort of headlock   the BF thinks   her screams are from him  until the spray of blood and the  CB  launching to his face.  Another egg or two is located  by a group of kids exploring and find a strange "rock"   on  the waters edge  where    the facehugging happens and the "punks"  come across   a  little brother of one dragging the others to a clubhouse   where they witness   a CB and set in motion them trying to contain  it when   Adults  dont  believe them.
       The ending will   be at a  family barn/ warehouse  where a Juvenile delinquent sacrifices  himself using   stolen dynamite  to allow his friend to escape from  a Queen/ drones, But to  add  a possible   4th     the friend  may have already been facehugged or show another egg floating in the current a  different  beach where  drug cartels are operating

Far distant future with the colonial marines and possibly a world that's been dominated by xenoes. And It would be cool if the main queen was huge. And the humans and marines would have to put aside their differences and work together.

[Inverse Effect]

I just want Marines, Aliens and Predators set on a LV-426 type planet. Apparently it's too hard to ask.

[DoomRulz]

It's not. It's just expensive.

[Kel G 426]

I've been thinking maybe an anthology film would work.  Several short stories, each focusing on a different aspect of the franchises so that there's something for everyone.  One story that's straight horror, another that's more action.  One story can be set in the ancient past while others are set in the future.  There should be at least one story with Colonial Marines because god it's been almost 30 years.  The final story can then be nothing but alien vs predator action.

[blood.]

Just something random:

Future space, colonial marines responding to a human spacecraft disappearance. They locate the ship crashed on a distant world and investigate...

The aliens and predators are at war on some ancient tribal temple on a different world when the humans turn up. There is a clan of warrior predators, as well as an elder predator and his son both who overlook the hunt without participation. There is also a thriving hive of aliens with a queen.

The humans don't even notice the other creatures as they make their way through the setting ignorantly. They keep stumbling across already abandoned battle zones. Perhaps their team gets picked off (accidentally) one by one and have absolutely no idea what the hell is going on so they send out a distress call, however backup isn't going to arrive for a while.

The predators deem them unworthy prey and decide to focus their attention on the aliens who want to attack the humans. The aliens plans get thwarted time and again by the predators.

When the dwindling humans inadvertently corner a predator in alien territory and it is captured by the aliens, the predators rally together to wipe the humans out in their hideout in one move. The few remaining marines set up an ambush point to try and kill whatever is hunting them elsewhere. Meanwhile backup has arrived.

A weyland yutani team turn up, the leader orders the death of any human presence and capture of any alien life forms. The predators are rapidly closing in as the wy team enter the marines hideout, unbeknownst to them it is swarming with hiding aliens who have set up an ambush. There is an eery calm in anticipation of the imminent battle. At the slightest twitch the intense battle breaks out and there are massive casualties on all sides. When the few marines return to their place and find it filled with dead bodies they panic, realize the wy dropship is still available to leave with.

An elder predator and his son turn up to find the carnage and chase after the few remaining marines. The marines stumble across the queen who goes on a rampage. The queen brutally shreds apart the elder predator as the elder's son starts attacking the queen.

The marines run away as the two fight, the marines run into a last remaining weyland yutani soldiers at the dropship outside.. the wy team start attacking the marines, killing one of them. The queen suddenly turns up and starts tearing apart the wy soldiers. The young predator turns up and starts attacking as well, but the queen overpowers everything. The marines hatch some sort of plan and distract the queen while the predator sticks it's self destructing gauntlet into the queen's head, the marines use the dropship to ram the queen into the temple or some nonsense. The pilot & the installation are blown up with the queen.

The young predator nods to the surviving marines and disappears. A second dropship full of colonial marines turn up, the last two marines drop their weapons in defeat when the marines reveal they aren't working for the same weyland yutani team and offer assistance in extraction.

The young predator watches the marines leave, turns around and charges aggressively into the smouldering ruins of the temple as alien screaches can be heard.

My influence for this thought is lock stock and two smoking barrels lol.
