NOOOOOO!  ;D
AVPR is still better!

you kidding me? AVP somewhat tried to atleast have some build up to seeing the creatures face off even though it wasnt that good anyhow...but avp-r looks like a fan film with random fight scenes that really arent interesting....

And yet, despite all the buildup, it was still a boring and dumb film. AvP:R isn't trying to do anything yet it still managed to entertain me.

I would rather reach for the stars and fall short, than reach for the gutter and fall in.

The Predalien was changing himself, that's why he didn't do anything.

Saw it not too long ago, and despite the first half hour of buildup (which, to be fair, is well paced), it's actually action packed from that point on. Even though there's only a few, yet awesome, AvP moments, there's still enough action and suspense sequences involving humans to keep proceedings from getting boring. Anderson's top notch direction doesn't hurt matters either.

And on the whole Pred / Human team-up fiasco, it's not like it it lasts for any length of time! In fact it's almost over before it begins. I'll always cringe at the sight of Lex and Scar running down that corridor together, but at least they're not high-fiving each other!

Since first seeing it in 2004, my opinion of AvP has steadily risen from genuine dislike to the point that I now consider it as being, whisper it... decent.

That is all.
