I thought AVPR was better than AVP.

avp-r was a fanfilm with more money to waste...

And AvP wasn't?

avp was much more, it was a stand alone film, it didnt rely on homages and gore shots to try and be entertaining, avp-r was made by fan-boys made for fanboys..

Right, b/c AvP was so much better in terms of script and overall action.

yes it was, avp tried to deliver suspence but of course a shit director stuffed that up...avp-r is a bigger budget fan-film..

0_0 AvP's budget was $60 million vs. AvP:R's budget of $50 million, what are you on about?

Actually, it's more in the vicinity of 50 million, according to a lot of more direct-to-issue sources like PWA...

But even the-numbers.com and BoxOffice Mojo can't see eye to eye regarding to how much AVP really cost, so you either take PWA or ambiguous movie statistics' sites...

SO, it is more likely AVP and AVPR budgets fall closer to each other than the opposite...

PWA said he saved 18 miliion bucks alone by making the sets in Prague rather than the US... 2 million instead of 20 million...

All the AVPR sets were done in the US, so guess how much that may have been...! :o ;D ;)

You like the Halloween remake but you didn't like AVPR. IMO The Halloween remake was worst then AVPR.

the halloween remake did what it was meant to, give michael myers a deeper character image....avp-r failed at what it tried to do...which is top the first one..

It topped the first one where the first one failed. Both films are neck and neck.

A little bit off-topic: have you ever been to Prague? I've been there last year, it's a really nice city ,definetly worth seeing.

I truly seems like the AvP-R fans keep saying "both movies weren't great", "both were neck and neck", and other things to suggest AvP was just as bad as AvP-R is just a form of kidding one's self and trying to discredit AvP to the level of AvP-R for the sake of how the movie stands in the overall rankings among fans.  AvP-R fans do not want AvP to be known as the "better" movie for whatever reason.

I know AvP was a better film, but I think I would rather watch AvP:R instead of AvP. :(

Right now I'm the same because I have only seen AvP-R once, and I am looking forward to the "extended" edition.  Also curious to watch it in HD!  However, if someone asked me which they should watch if they could only pick one, I'd w/out a doubt suggest AvP.  Not sure why they'd only be allowed to watch just one...maybe their communist overlords only allow one aliens related movie... lol.  mmmkay..

Only one Aliens related film and you'd recommend AvP. Shame on you.

Between the 2!  Not all of them!  Don't you dare try to make me look like a AvP-lover!   ;)
