AvP-R was the better movie to me, I think AvP had a lot of potential and could have been a lot better. Then again AvP-R could have been a lot better. In the end it came down to studio control I believe. Anderson actually had a rather good thing going but the studio made him cut the movie in half. He wanted to film the Queen being injected with hormones that sped up reproduction and gestation. Basically, it would have made a lot more sense. AND it was meant to be rated R.
Fox just doesn't care anymore, I want the old execs back. *sighs*
