Poll: AvP vs AvPR

[MadassAlex]

I just thought that, while we're blowing the faults of these movies out of proportion, I'd go the full monty.

[SiL]

At least in Power Rangers the grey dudes at least SOMETIMES hit the Power Ranges. Sometimes.

[Spaghetti]

They were called putties.

And they were true ballers.

[Jorko_Beliata]

To be honest, the guys in the rubber suits did great work! 
Best sequence in the AvP movies! Ever! 
Nothing beats scene in which a Predator beats the living cr*p out of alien like it's a training dummy! 

[SiL]

This is why people don't like Predator fans.

Xenos treatment as sacks of training, a living part of the dojo. Object rather than subject. Thoughtlessness. Lack of reflection.

IMHO.

am i an expection? Still alien over predator i am, although i like both. 

[The Ghoul]

although the story needed help on avpr i did like it more because of the action, but it needed a better story thats for sure and better acting in some parts. I guess i'm just an action guy.

Me also... (with a tendency Predator, a bit stronger attraction for me ). I love them both and it's very difficult to understanding for some...
Because  they are perfect complement for each other, and they are fascinating in this same way.
But yes, we are exception.
Unique...

Story in AvP is far from perfection... But IMHO is much, much better than unlogical, gore, teenegers AvP:R.

Well I can't see why it should taken as offense. I mean, if a Predator mops the floor with an Alien, and someone likes it, why should you get pissed off...
It does goof the idea of the almost-everything proof and invincible alien, but that's ever since Aliens...

Guess you'd hate Herk Mondo stories either (which I like even more!)... 

[SiL]

I love the Herk Mondo comics.

But they're comics.

What I hate is Pred fanboys' "Preds should wipe the floor with Aliens" mentality.

[Jorko_Beliata]

It's not necessary to happen, just love it when it does! 
Everybody likes what he likes.

[MadassAlex]

There's enough stories out there that rape the Alien canon hard enough to Predators superior combatants to Aliens.

It's not only a trivialisation of the creature itself, but of the Alien movies that we get emotionally invested in. Every time a Predator mops the floor with a dozen Aliens, I feel a pang of regret that some half-assed comic book writer is inadvertently invalidating Ripley's struggles.

[Eidotemit]

Not really...

[MadassAlex]

Especially since Alien 3 made it clear that it took specifically armour-piercing weapons to significantly damage Aliens.
