Thats why we're better off without 'fans' like that. As long as there are fans that prefer a low budget monster film lacking any heart or substance we will never get another alien or predator film on par with the originals. I hope Ridley will prove me wrong.
It's not the fans the make the movies low budget, it is the executives looking for the easiest dollar in the film industry itself.
Respectively, it is upsetting when those of us who do have a true knowledge of the franchise history run up against those who don't in converstation. As a mom, I am doing my part to prevent this in my household lol but, it is because of
the fans that keeps this franchise going. Even the lesser of the fans put money into this franchise and money is what keeps it coming back to the theaters, the comics back on the shelves, and engineers behind the games.
I like AVP. Sure I get a lot of heat for it, and often receive condescending remarks over having my own opinion, but thats ok it's your opinion and your entitled to it. I was watching Sci Fi films before most of you were teenagers yourselves, so while I respect your views please keep in mind that some of do have an opinion outside of your own with an honest real history behind it.
...end rant, time for some coffee.
