OK is still better than that sh*ckingly sh*te excuse for a film dubbed AvP1. I put it down alongside Starship Troopers 2. Predators are double-hard b*stards. While humans are running arround screaming getting done in by (quite usually) a single alien (ref: Alien, Alien 3), the Preds would hunt these things for sh*ts and giggles all before breakfast. To have 2 predators skull f*cked by the aliens in AvP1 was just rediculous. The script was also ripped ever so slightly from one of the AvP comics, too. There is a homage to this fact, when you see the main Pred - he's missing a 'tusk.' Refers to the main Pred protagenist in the comic/books - Broken Tusk. Anyway, showing my geek side once again. Also which crack head thought having a pyramid...buried 2km under thick ice... made by incans, myans and aztecs...was a good idea? Why put it in the, keep it in the jungle. In a cave. On inaccessable plateau - something at least vaguely believable!
I've got mixed feelings about the new Pred movie. It's a remake. Would it really have required that much more effort to come up with a fresh story line? The original with Arnie is still awesome today - why do it again? I mean, you have the perfect ending to AvP2 which screams sequel and this Pred movie has come along first!
I do want to watch it, but I'll probably end up getting the DVD.
