I think it looks to be good, but that shot of the Predators on the temple before that huge, blue explosion ball thing look dumb.

Nice!

I thought it look bad ass! I'm not a fan of either franchise but I do want to see this movie.

necros 06-11-04 10:13 AM

I'll be there!

Looks sweet :up:

That looks cool. They got my $7.

Looks like they have a queen and plenty of aliens. That's good, I was concerned it would be like 8 humans, 3-4 predators, and 5 aliens or something silly. Good to see they're doing it right and swarming the aliens against everyone else.

It looks like a fun popcorn flick. Nothing more. Not that that's a bad thing. :)

too bad it's not in the Aliens time frame, at least not from what I've read on it

Loud Heavy Metal music in trailer + Awesome CGI + Paul Anderson = ALOT of skepticism

... doesn't mean the film will have any. I think that if the film had ANY nu-metal, Paul Anderson (The Most Untalented, Unimaginitive Hack That Has Ever Cursed Cinema) would be strung up and crucified while people hurl pineapples at him. Still in the cans.

Looked pretty awful. I never really thought the Alien or Predator franchises had any dignity any way but there it went. No human side to the story = no deal.

What time frame is it set in? It looks like its pre alien.

The first two Alien films are bonafide classics.

Giantrobo 06-11-04 04:16 PM

Looks good to me.

Buncha old women can't take Metal music. :lol:

There would be a human side if it was called "Humans Vs Predator" or "Humans Vs Alien" but it's not so what are you missing?

It just looks like Freddy vs Jason to me. That's all. I'm sure it will be fun.

mikehunt 06-11-04 06:12 PM

I don't remember exactly, but I think it was only like 50 years from now. it was a while ago that I read that though, maybe they changed it
considering the name of Lance Henriksen's character maybe they moved it closer to the Alien/Aliens time frame
I still think setting it in the years immediately after Aliens would be best. Like the games and I assume the books/comics

This looks awesome!!!!

rojkai 06-11-04 07:33 PM

am i the only one reminded of Jason X while watching this trailer ?

RyoHazuki 06-11-04 08:45 PM

Looks good. I'll see it.

Alvis 06-11-04 09:03 PM

I'm just hoping it's better than Alien 3 or Resurrection.

Buckaroo Banzai 06-11-04 09:35 PM

This looks like it has some potential, will check this out for sure.

I loved Alien3, but hated Resurrection. Hope AvP is better than that tripe.

I thought it looked pretty damn awful. Like someone else said, seems to be almost too much CG. As a fan of both series, I will be seeing it opening day, no matter what. Hopefully I will be pleasantly surprised.

I was actually thinking Freddy vs Jason but yeah it does kinda look like Freddy vs Jason in Space.
