    How could it be better than "Frankenstein Meets The Wolfman"?

    what are some good, fairly recent, alien movies? i love them so much but its so hard to find a good alien movie. alien was a great movie but i can't stand the fact that its old (sorry to the people on this forum that were gorwing up when it came out). im only 16 and used to the special effects of star wars episode 1 and the matrix. the only semi good alien movie i have found was signs, and i liked alien way better then that one. i cant wait to see this movie, definitely going to buy it. but anyway, any sugestions for some good alien or monster movies?

    The only things that Danny Glover was good in are Lethal Weapon(Series) and Silverado....Predator 2 is definetly not one of those, thats a terrible movie :D

    The rest are great choices, I am just messing with you Dlew

    I don't think you would call it an alien movie, but Event Horizon is pretty good. It is Sci-Fi/Horror. The Ray Bradbury movie, The Martian Chronicles is kinda weird, made for TV I think....anyone remember that?

    I don't know why they're having Alien fight Predator. In Predator 2, in the ship, there is an "alien" skull on the wall along with all the others. Maybe Predator can fight lots of Aliens.


    I don't consider the original Alien an alien flick as much as a great horror movie set in space. It is being released in theaters, by the way.. saw the commercial over the weekend.

    I'm thinking there won't be a lot of dialogue in this movie. Are they planning on having subtitles to translate the creatures screams and shrieks into language? :D

    Actually at the end of P2 the Alein skull was a last minute prop (brought up by a stage hand or what not) that was put up. (Interesting how for just a quick second or two everyone noticed this part) Ever since it has spawned A VS P hype. Dark Horse created the comic line and created a growing interest. I spoke about this when the directed was picked and the budget was cut. Little responce at the time. Many people told me this movie would never see the big screen. I have just won a couple bets.$$$
    By the way Alien is one of if not the greatest sic fi/horrer movies made. It scared a $hit out of the audience when it was first released and it still holds its own.
    Huge fan of both movies and I can't freaking what for this one. To hit the screen. Probably one of the only movies other than RE2 that I will go see next year.

    geeze guys im only 16, dont throw me out of america because i never heard of that movie...independance day i have seen but what is id4?


    there will be dialogue because i think the whole theme is that a dumbass group of scientists got caught up in the middle of the whole A vs P battle...so there will be a fair share of people getting eaten i think, maybe idk. atleast i thought that was what was happening

    I wouldn't worry about it. I'm still trying (granted, not too hard) to figure out what the hell RE2 is. :D

    Time is just too precious these days to spell everything out. Even though we all seem to have enough time to waste hanging around posting on a website primarily devoted to audio speakers. :D

    But then again that's JMNSHO, FWIW, ICBW, FYI and BFD. ;)

    I can do better than that:
    AVP
    PS - RE2 is Resident Evil Two - also next year and same director.

    this looks like the typical non imaginative crap being churned out by Hollywood.
    Why not get Freddie and Jason in there too along with Godzilla and Mothra.

    Your way out in left field on this one. AVP is NOT something churned by HW. Pretty much brought about by "underground" fans. Like a said I won many bets about this movie never happening. You want to see a HW being churned, it would be the whole comic book movie gerne. I watched the preview for *The Punisher* 2004 - it's going to be PURE punishment aright! Looks pretty lame. Fan or not.
    AVP is going to kick A$$!!!!!!!!!!!

    I loved the first Predator, hated the second one....I will definetly be checking this movie out. Looks like it could be real neat.

    As for the HW cashing in comment....well they can have my money for AVP, before they will get it for garbage like Under the Tuscan Sun or Radio.

    I loved the Bewitched TV show, watched it all the time. I'm looking forward to it. Will Ferrell is perfect for Darrin's roll and Nicole Kidman, I'm there!

    That looks awesome. I bet Alien would win if Predator couldn't use any weapon:).
