Title: AvP Trailer
Post by: Richmond Clements on 11 June, 2004, 11:37:37 PM
The new trailer for AvP has went up, and grud help me, it looks just possible that it might not suck.

Link: have a look

No.... No, I still think it'll suck. When you consider the cruddy director and the cruddy story.

That makes me go 'ooh', but mainly because it's the two creatures. I like the combat we see, and I like the way they've made it very actiony. But seriously, the plot sucks total ass....

>Hmm Men in suits.

   Fantastic! Proper effects, none of that CGI shite (Like Alien Resurrection, oh dear...)

   The plot is still iffy though - if they'd just set it at the dawn of human exploration into space and on a different planet or something... It's going to make a mockery of the whole 'If just one of those things gets down here then that's it! All this bullshit that you think is so important? You can kiss all that goodbye!' speech

Re the ITV edit...

With one crucial character's death scene - there being too much mayhem going on - they obviously could not to overdubbed his lines without it sounding real bad... so they just blanked them out, Big Brother style...

I'll go and see Alien vs. Predator. I don't care if it's rubbish. I despair of ever going to see a good film at the cinema ever again anyway. (are these threads disentangled again yet?)

Post by: Dunk! on 16 June, 2004, 11:23:59 PM
Hopefully the story follows the first AvP comic in some way.

That I remember being actually quite good.

The TV edit Aliens i saw didn't get rid of the long drawn out "F********k" that Hudson utters when he hears how Burke would have savaged their lifepods on the way home. It's quite missable though.

Conexus is so full of repressed rage he even has to respond to insults that don't count because they're posted on the wrong thread.

I'm not playing with that 'say something nasty' thread any more. It's jinxed.

Aliens vs. Predator then. As you were.

I'd like to see some AvP set in the past... Alan Quartermain vs The Predator.

You mean just some P surely??

One of the biggest flaws with the plot is, as said above, that it's set on earth. WHY??

On the other hand, I could really get into a story abut Predators and their hunting n the past on Earth. Very cool stuff....
Title: Re: AVP Trailer
Post by: House of Usher on 18 June, 2004, 05:52:45 PM
They could do that. Of course, two conditions would be necessary. 1) the predators would have to have brought the aliens to Earth with them and release them to be be hunted; and 2) all the aliens would have to be dead by the end of the the story and no evidence of them could be discovered so that their existence could never be proved and Ripley's encounter with the alien would remain the first sighting.

I think that's pretty much how it's going to go. Umm, I'll spoiler this instead of blurting it out, as some people may not know

Henrikson is playing a certain Mr. Weyland - so this will explain how the company knew about the existence of the Aliens.

Spoiler (kinda)





Yes isn't that's meant to explain why Bishop looks the way he does.

But then who's the guy turning up at the end of Aliens 3?

Wasn't he the creator of Bishop and the reason Bishop looks the way he does.

And where's Bilbo's creator?
Title: Re: AVP Trailer
Post by: House of Usher on 18 June, 2004, 06:37:25 PM
At first I thought "who's Bilbo?"
Then I realised you mean Ash, the android from the first Alien film.

Don't sequels always try to explain stuff that doesn't need explaining, only to end up making things more complicated?
Title: Re: AVP Trailer
Post by: Generally Contrary on 18 June, 2004, 06:39:29 PM
Where's Bilbo's creator?  Probably Mr Yutani.
Title: Re: AVP Trailer
Post by: Richmond Clements on 18 June, 2004, 06:40:22 PM
Well, if Bishop is based on Weyland, then Ash (AKA Bilbo), might be modeled on Mr. Yutani.
But if that was the case, why didn't the crew of the Nostromo recognise him and realise he was a robot, a goddamned robot?


Title: Re: AVP Trailer
Post by: Pyroxian on 18 June, 2004, 07:02:26 PM
Well Ash is an older model (And possibly an espionage based one), so maybe they weren't being based on famous people by that point.

Still not sure who the bugger at the end of Alien 3 was though - a clone of Weyland? Did they have Cloning by that point?

"But then who's the guy turning up at the end of Aliens 3? "

Another android? Could have been a clever double-bluff.

Doesn't the guy at the end of Alien 3 claim to be the designer of the androids?
Probably lying though. I reckon he was an android too.
Title: Re: Say something nasty about the ...
Post by: Bolt-01 on 20 June, 2004, 02:34:26 AM
Henriksen DID claim to be the creator of the androids at the end of three, I imagine it was to convince Ripley of the importance of playing along with them.

Shame that in resurrection they never got Henriksen to play a sympathetic 'nurse' character for Ripley. Could have been interesting.
