Did you like the first movie? Do you like Aliens? Do you like Predators? Are you able to not nitpick the hell out of a movie and enjoy it for what it is?

If you answered "yes" to at least 2 of these questions, then yes, it is a decent blind buy.

I was able to pre-order the Alien Vs Predator 2 pack from amazon a couple of days ago for $27.95, not it sells for 47.95. I also lucked out and sold my once viewed copy of Alien Vs Predator on ebay for $22.

That is a pretty good recommendation checklist actually. I'll have to remember that.

Yeah, I hear you. Million Dollar Baby was a great movie, and on Blu Ray, the image was wonderful. But I will never watch it again. Well, maybe in 10 years.

Wow. That is a fantastic way of putting it. Definitely should use that every time anyone asks that question...just replace 'Aliens' and 'Predators' with more relevant subject material.

cdot2four · 04-03-2008, 07:18 AM

yeah the AVP movies are just like the RE movies if they make them I will buy them

Nice. I'm looking forward to this. I want to see what is added to the unrated cut.

Ive been a sucker for all things avp after the 2nd game for pc.

Game played out like this,

marine-you will deal with absurd number of aliens, and you will afraid of your own shadow.

alien-you are speed, your steps taken are not taken in fear you know you are somewhat vulnable, but most likely they will never see you coming.

predator-you are power, your steps are taken with full assessment of what is going on, you see all you watch all, you have a backup plan with the ability to heal yourself or re energize yourself at your own will. Everything is afraid of you, and sometimes you just enjoy the view of a skewed enemy head on a nicely placed sniper shot.

If they take the next one to space I wonder if they will try to capture the 2nd's storyline, btw I was really happy to see a Pretorian in AVP that was quite a shock.

Btw if you have a friend, or wife, or significant other who is pregnant there are some disturbing scenes that they may upset them.

IF P = Yes, and C = No..

Then if C=P=Z then you should purchase

If P>C<Z then no you shouldn't.
