Poll: AvP vs AvPR

[DoomRulz]

The AvP:R fights kept me awake. Good enough for me.

[OmegaZilla]

How many times did you watch AvP?

[DoomRulz]

Once.

[OmegaZilla]

Trust me, watch it another time. I fell asleep the first time I watched Matrix, but in a second watch I really liked it. Sure, there's no comparison, but I'm sure a "first watch" can't reall be the final judgement on a film.

The race at the end? Not much of a battle.

I saw no race. I saw the Queen chase Lex for maybe a solid minute, that was it.

[DoomRulz]

I just remember a whole lot of running.

[Bishop2]

At least it looked more like a fight than those in AvPR...

That's because it looked like something other than a dark blob moving around.

[TJ Doc]

Once.

Ah ha. That would explain everything. AvP is a film that can get (slightly) better with repeated viewings.

At least it did for me. I hated the film when I first saw it.

That's not what I saw.

Didn't you know? The real threat in AvPR is a giant Flesh consuming shapeless monster

I think you have super-vision, Doom. Everybody else, it seems, (including myself) couldn't see a thing.

[DoomRulz]

Nope, I have standard 20/20 just like everyone else.

Least, I think, like everyone else.

[SpaceMarines]

Are you from Krypton?

[MadassAlex]

If you're seeing things fine, then that's cool.

But we sure as hell can't, and therefore we can't judge the movie on the same basis as you can. We're all perceiving dark darkness with a side-dish of shadow, which is ultimately thankful because whenever I see the movie stills lit up, a chestburster is prematurely aborted.

[DoomRulz]

But, the film is not. Too. Dark. If it was, how the hell then can I claim to see anything? There's nothing wrong with the lighting. It's the colour grading that was screwed up.
