Alright, so who went out and saw it on Christmas? I went to a 1:45 showing today, and the place was about 3/4 full. I'll keep it spoiler free. I'll just start off by saying this one blows away the first one, not that it was that hard to do anyway. The Predators are redeemed for looking like pussies in the first one by the bad ass Pred in this one. The Aliens are back and creepier than ever. In the first AVP the Aliens presence sucked. It was just like, 'crap, there's an alien.' In this one it's back to the old school, like 'RUN! in' Aliens everywhere!' Couple jump out and scare you moments too, keeps it suspenseful. They also brought back the old school Predator and Alien likenesses, if you know what I mean. The Aliens squeal when they are being shot up, and everytime the Predator makes himself known, we get the trumpets roaring in the background, just like the original. Plus, the Predator takes his mask off EXACTLY like he did in the original. Hell yes.

I enjoyed the first, and thought I would really enjoy this one. I was wrong. Dumbed down action. Very dark action scenes, too dark to tell whats going on most of the time. There was some pretty lame dialouge, and it was just an all around bad movie. Its a shame the last movie to see of this year was damn lame. 3/10

I went to see it today and I thought it was ok. It was not great but it was not bad. I liked the first one and I liked this one but I liked the first one more.

As an avid Predator fan, HOLY crap AM I HAPPY. Great Predator 1 reference, and the ending was ing wonderful. God Bless the Strause Brothers. After two years of waiting, and a lot of lame ass people saying it was bad, I could not be ing happier. If you didn't like it, off and read the books and comics and rewatch it. ing GOLD.

So the first was "Alien vs. Predator," and this one is "Aliens vs. Predator"? Is that because the second Alien movie was called Aliens? If so, what's the point of "Requiem"?
lol movie execs

predator was way to short and way to skinny too many dark scenes alot of it didnt make sense its sort of like freddy versus jason type film , where your like awww its better then nothing .AVP 1 the predators where way better then this 1 lone weak ass pred.Very disapointed with the script and crapty actors and stupid high school kids ?? come on this isnt jason x.The action scenes where the only reason to go see this movie and the hybrid predalien was pretty cool..... I want part 3 to be in space on both alien and predator planets and maybe 1 or 2 human actors like batista or john cena not no bull crap high school kids and some stupid ex marine lesbian bitch lol preadtor and aliens 9/10 actors 1/10 story 6/10

Ian Whyte, who is 7'1" played the Predators in AVP, and returned as the new one. In no way was he 'too short', and as for being too skinny, go back and watch Predator 1 and 2, which both were lean as hell. Dark scenes not making much sense? Besides the power being out, right? The Strause Bros. have said, if the movie makes a good amount of money, Fox wants them back on board to do AVP3, which they say WILL be in space. ...and keep Batista and Cena far, FAR away from these movies.

No problem man, to tell you the truth, the reason why no Predator movie was made for 14 years was greatly due to not being able to find an actor as into the role that could match Kevin Peter Hall's mannerisms, and that was 7 feet tall.
I could see why you'd think he was shorter, throughout the movie, we never really saw him next to a human, it was always either the Predalien or, an alien, which were even taller.
