Well, I think it looks cool, but ya, they could of done allot better. They should of went with the design in the AVP2 game. I think the Predalien in it looks really sweet. Still has the dreds, but they go back instead of spread out on the sides, more like the original long alien heads and spikes on it’s shoulders.

Check out this pic also, it looks really awesome: http://www.canmag.com/images/front/moviesetc/predalien.jpg

I know what you mean Rodney. The original idea for the first film was that it took place way in the future, I thought that would of been much better. The whole thing happening again in modern times and on earth just seems weird and kind of silly. But I can see how it can work too. As long as the Preds and Aliens get allot more screen time and allot more battling in then in the first film, like using a “Transformers” formula, and some good scary as hell events happening to the humans and them just getting ripped to shreds left and right, then I’ll be happy.

To 1138. Actually we’ve seen in the movies and the comics/books the Aliens have a keen sense of other life forms. Being able to scene flaws and even they’re own kind in other life forms so they don’t kill them by mistake. So I think if they did come across a mentally challenged person they would just kill them or leave them be.

The DNA stealing thing is actually and awesome idea. It allows them to adapt amazingly well to they’re environments and become even more formidable killing machine by actually stealing they’re enemies abilities to us against them. Hence, the perfect weapon, or killing machine, or perfect species. They’re just freakin’ badass! :)

I stand corrected Seely. I now recall that Fincher did come on board late and that the idea was not his…but still bleeeaaahhh horrible idea!And horrible movie!

To be perfectly honest bud, I thought “Alien 3″ was good but the Director’s Cut of the movie is 10000x better! In the Director’s Cut, they actually brought back the dead ox and had the alien burst from it instead. There were also some other great scenes added in as well.

hey bigsampson, where can a guy find pictures of those better designs. The idea of mixing an alien and a predator to make something new is so tight.

Oh and to AjaxLou, you are genious for bringing that up about the predator’s culture. When I saw the first one and the predator got “infected?” with the alien, I was thought he would FOR SURE kill himself. That is just the way of the predator species. They would never endanger their entire race like that. And one of them would gladly kill himself if it meant killing an alien. Even more honor in that.

lol well all i can say is that they do take the dna and mash up with the host…..look at the comic book series when they are on the planet thats all water….there are like whale type aliens…also in the future weyland corp. makes the drug from the egg sack of the queen…which later starts to mutate the humans who use it….this charecter they made looks like crap….there have been way better designs for him made, wonder why they bypassed them

and for people who don’t know it was Fincher that came up with the idea that the Alien absorb or assimilate the DNA from it’s host hence the dog in Alien 3

That’s partially incorrect, 1138. It wasn’t Fincher. It was Vincent Ward who came up with the idea of the Alien absorbing DNA from the host. (and to a lesser extent, David Twohy before him) Fincher was brung on as a director late in the film, working with a draft that had oxen being facehugged, and they shot quite a bit of it…only when live oxen didn’t work, they reshot it…with a dog who could be trained.
Fincher only came up with the dog.

That costume sucks!!! And for people who don’t know it was Fincher that came up with the idea that the Alien absorb or assimilate the DNA from it’s host hence the dog in Alien 3. It’s was and is a stupid idea…that means if an alien is born from someone that is mentally or physically handicapped the Alien would also be handicapped??? That kind of defeats the purpose of perfect species that the character Ash (Ian Holm) describes in Alien I. The original idea involved just incubation not assimilation.

I do agree with Marvin, the rest of the Alien movies sucked, I and II are by the best of the series…perhaps even on the list of the the best Sci-Fi horror movies of all time.

This Alien Predator combo just looks silly…I hope this movie is good…the first Alien Vs. Predator was horrible.
