Why isn't "They are both poor" winning.
I worry about you guys  :-\
They are both poor I think most people have one they hate more.

One is more-than poor.
The other isn't.

I rewatched A:R today after not seeing it since 1997. Better than I remembered. It deserves a bump up a notch over AvP 2004 in my list. Definitely better than AvPR.


Lastly I have a question: when Ripley fell and landed on some slimey alien carpeting before she encountered the queen, what the hell was that slimey stuff? Was that the top of the queen's sack (if you can call it that) and then proceeded to spit her out of the side of the sack?

The only thing I like about AV:R is the design of the Betty. Nice looking ship that one.
The only thing I like about AVP:R .....

Ok maybe I should of voted for AVP:R :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

I think he meant A:R and I agree the Betty was pretty amazing.

Resurrection has its good moments that keep it from being direly bad. It's definitely not a movie to be proud to have in the universe, but it's still f***ing poetry compared to AvP:R.

AvP:R should just be wiped from history.

Actually, I totally f**ked it!!  ::) :P
The question is "which do I prefer"....so I should of voted for Requiem. It has one thing I like in it at least. I can't say the same about AVP:R. Only good thing that has going for it is, it is better than the first AVP Movie.  :laugh:

Hive and bits of Alien.  If, as has been theorised, the hive is a sort of fungus that is instigated by the Alien then left to grow of it's own accord, put it's appearance here down to genetic f**ked uppery.  Interestingly this bit of 'hive' doesn't appear to be connected to the hive in waste tank 5.  It's bits of old script drafts, where they had to go through the hive to get to the Betty.  Then later they were OVER the hive, but not in it.  Then what ended up on screen was not a continuous hive, but the shit Ripley gets dragged into - then unhived corridors between it and the waste tank.  Continual budget cuts would've been the cause of this, as Weaver and Ryder had to go and plead with Bill Mechanic to keep stuff like the 'viper pit' (as Weaver called it) in the film.

Personally I think AVPR is better than A:R, but I think we all knew that.
