I'd say a lot.

I remember in either the original comic or the first draft of the script that was floating around the internet like 15 years ago (don't remember it TOO well), it all took place on an alien planet that the predators infested with aliens for like a hunting trip. There were NO humans.

Although it would not be the obvious commercial choice, I think an Alien vs. Predator film with NO humans would really kick ass. Even if it was still earth and just in rain forest or tundra or desert or whatever... just have two predators hunting down aliens and talking predator-talk to one another, all tactics and action and survival shit. Then on the aliens end, show how they adapt to environments (it'd be great to see jungle environments taken over by the Giger black alien scenery) and use packs to attack the predators. that'd kick some major ass if you ask me. like a whole movie of those 15 minutes in the original Predator where it was just Arnie vs. Predator, but with no Arnie and alens...

...and Kelly Rowland saying "place your bets"

That is the best fucking idea ever. I would watch that with gusto.

I remember one aliens comic book with a fake alien made by humans. A robot in disguise who would infiltrate within the actual aliens herd. It was very interesting and would give a lot of good moments in the big screen. Or something..

I like sanblaster's idea better.

FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

What colour is the sky where you're from? Honestly, this is definitely the worst film I've paid to see in the last 5 years, if not ever. Consider this: NO tension, awful characters, confusing direction (yeah, let's have it in a big internally shifting pyramid thing, that'll be fun to watch/try and follow), a script apparently penned by an autistic 12 year old and an ending that reeked of having given up (which I can kind of understand, having been so awful up until that point - yeah, alien head for a shield, tail for a spear, maybe she should have had sex with the predator too).

I'm sorry, I just think you're wrong.

lol, i never said it was a fucking master piece and i didn't, and wouldn't have paid to see it, i just said it was ok...

it shouldn't have been made in the first place, imo, but having seen it, you can watch it and forget about it... simple as that (i wasn't entering into it with high expectations and therefore wasn't as disappointed obviously)

i didn't read too much into it as a movie... and if i had paid for it maybe i would have been pissed off, but i tend not to bother going to see predicable unnessecary movies at the cinema, and it is those that did pay to see it who have encouraged a sequel... which i will see when it arrives on a Movie channel and not at the cinema

stop paying and going to see shit movies and they 'might' stop making them...

the problem with bad movies, is that they will still get made,
as nowadays a movie can make more money on DVD sales,
and pay/cable etc..

even if the never release AvP 3 (assuming this 2nd one
bombs) i'm sure they'll release it straight-to-video etc..

let's say this 2nd one does terribly, it really doesn't matter,
it will still go to DVD/cable etc...where i'm sure it will do
better...................

then all we have to do is wait another 10 years, and
someone will 'reimage' alien, and redo the first one over
again...........(eg. superman, batman, etc...)

You're right. Also included are the recent "Halloween" movie, all the versions of Night of the Living Dead. Weird how there's often a better recepion to the reimaged versions or those that concentrate on the bak story or birtth of the legend. It's as if everyone forgets how crappy all the sequels were!

[negative1]

i think a prequel to 'alien' would be kind of neat..

it would be very minimal though, in showing how
the aliens got to the planet, and how that one
spaceship crashed there..

i've read ALL of darkhorse aliens comic adapations,
and some are very good...some are pretty bad..

i've also read the fake scripts floating around..

there's a lot of good ideas out there...however
it's unlikely they will ever be made, even though
it's a lot cheaper to do things in cg..

although, a short series of cg graphics aliens
episodes would be pretty cool...given the right
story..

MIAOW

This is utterly true but you can't deny the draw of the aliens/predator licences. Also, you can't objectively call something shit without having seen it. Unfortunately.

yeah I used to agree with this but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. Fantastic 4 part 2, Hulk part 2... it really doesn't seem to matter how many people see the movie because Wal Mart moms buy everything on dvd anyway.
