Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem Trailer

http://media.movies.ign.com/media/7...237/vids_1.html

This trailer alone is better than all of the previous film. Pretty funny how they're going out of their way to show that this is a hardcore R-rated film from the start; a total 180 from their previous stance on marketing this franchise. The fan backlash must have been bigger than I thought.

+They got the Predator's look right finally. The retarded looking, and overly bulky Preds in the last film made me want to stab my eyes out.
+Aliens are back to their look in Aliens. They're even using the sound fx from that film as well. Total fan service.
+Lots of awesome kills, half of which will probably be trimmed out in the theatrical release. The uncut DVD/hi-def release will be awesome.

-Why the fuck are we still on Earth?
-Christmas? Really? You really think it'll do well during Christmas, Fox?
-Where's my Predator 3, and Alien 5?

Holy crap! More gore than I expected and ITS A BOUT TIME the predators show some backbone. I thought it was extremely gay that one alien out of hundreds killed 2 predators in the last film. Looks kick ass, a real battle.

Well I hope there's an alien spawned from a Predator at some point.

You didn't notice it in the trailer?

Kinda felt like the aliens were getting their asses handed to them, which is unfortuante, i'm more an aliens fan.

I half expected to open this thread seeing tons of "AVP WAS AWESOME I CAN'T WAIT" posts. Great, now I don't have to yell at idiots tonight.

AvP was not an awesome film.

Anyway, this trailer is fucking sweet! I love how they weren't scared to kick up the gore and everything just like they did in the trailer for John Rambo.

I never really understood all the hate for AvP. Yes, it could have been much better, but it was a hundred times better than either Predator 2 or Alien 3/4.

I personally didn't hate AvP, it was ok but definitely not 'awesome'. Like most people, I mainly saw it as a tragically gimped, wasted opportunity to make the film that AvP2 has the potential to be.

AvP was made stupid the moment they made the predators "good guys" and allied them up with that no name actress.

Well the Predators were always about honour and only hunting worthy prey. Allying with the woman out of respect for her ability to fight wasn't too out of character. They did it with Danny Glover in Predator 2.

Plus the Predator / Alien fight scenes were just the coolest damn thing in the universe.

That Alien/Predator looks retarded. AvP was terrible, and this probably will be too.

Also, I hate how they seem to have a feminine hero who resembles Sigourney Weaver as Ripley, just for the sake of having a female hero. I don't understand why it is so common for movies in series to attempt that.
