Anyopne ever read the AvP commics? they came out many moons ago when I was a freshman in high school.  And they kicked ass.  I am definatly willing to give this film a shot.

QuoteBut hopefully it'll be good hip-hop like Geraldo and Vanilla Ice.

Does... not... compute...
Sorry ... I meant GeraRdo ... you know, the Rico Suave moron from years ago?

I saw the HBO First Look at this movie.Ã,  I think I'll go see it for sure now.Ã,  Just to see it.Ã,  I played the first AVP game years ago on the Atari Jaguar (which most probably don't remember) and started thinking then how cool of a movie it would make.

Here's hoping!

Saw it this weekend.

It was everything I expected.  So I enjoyed it.

For a PG-13 rated movie, it was plenty violent, although one could tell it WAS cut (particularily, it was flash cut - the gore was there, but it never lingered on it.  2 milloseconds of screen time, usually) for violence.  But it was a decent sci-fi/action flick.

If you want great acting and a good plot, rent "The Godfather".  If you wanna see two intergalactic beasts fight, see Alien vs. Predator.

I saw it too. I thought it was pretty neat.. But obviously was watered down. I'm hoping the decision to keep it PG-13 was made AFTER shooting....

* [lgm] crosses fingers for an unedited directors cut DVD.

IMO, it was rather good and had a decent (cliche) plot, but it was far too short. It could've been 20-30 minutes longer with more dueling and more character time. The humans hardly put up a fight, and I would've liked to have seen them last a bit longer. They just dropped like flies. Too easy.

Other than that, I give it a B+

I think it was.  You can tell that the gorier sequences, and some language, were edited out.  Or for language alternate takes were used.
