I found the first one to be pretty decent. I don't know why people trashed it to hell and back. Sure it made no sense to rate a crossover movie that both franchises have all their movies rated R, but overall it was actually a decent film.

I'm looking forward to AvP2

Here's why I trash it. First, it isn't rated R! Second, there are too many humans in it, or rather humans who are worthless. Third, none of the characters matter. Fourth, it takes place on modern day earth. And finally , it comepletely ass fucks the continuity of the Predator and Alien franchises!

If they had at least put it on a colony planet in the future, it would've been marginally better. This AVP2 script doesn't hold alot of promise and I sure as hell am not going to see it.

How ya doing, buddy?

Look at the first Predator movie, how many in the commando unit were worthless and only served the purpose of dying?

I agree with dagget, the movie wasnt as great as either Alien or Predator movies but how can you expect it to be? I would much rather watch this movie then some lame overrated movie ... ie) Napoleon Dynamite, Sideways, etc.

A couple other members answered for me, yes it's because of the source material which were all rated R. Trust me, a rating doesn't make a good movie, however it can make one more entertaining. AVP was neutered. It had its balls ripped off, and would've been highly entertaining with an R rating.

With the first Predator they at least showed some semblance of comradery regardless of how primitive it was. When Blain was killed by the predator, Mac just went beserk. And these guys are hardened killers and to be spooked by something leaves you on some sort of edge. Because the movie was so simple it worked.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
