It's really as if we peaked into the subconscious of Giger.

My favorite monsters are all video game things because I'm a huge dumb nerd
Oh wait, I tend to like Guillermo Del Toro's stuff.
I didn't dislike Pandora's creatures per say, I just didn't think they were mindblowing. Plus I'm bitter that anything bioluminscent now is immediately ripping off Avatar and not ya know, the deep ocean.

So we cant draw inspiration from nature without it being 'ripping off'? Practically every creature design is based on some sort of earth lifeform that exists or has existed.
as for Gullermo's stuff, thats fantasy, making cool-looking creatures is like the only design requirement. They look awesome tho of course.

We talking creature designs? The original Alien from the first movie, the 'worker' or whatever it's called nowadays; that thing has a human skull inside it's long translucent skull.
Only noticed this last year!
I don't think the Aliens onwards designs have a human skull in there. But dayamn that's a creepy detail.
Oh brilliant

Also have people mentioned that the entire concept of the Aliens is that they represent rape?
They rape you in the face, then you give birth to their rape-baby (and die), they look like dicks, and they stalk you in the shadows, hunt you down and either kill you with their phallic tail or their phallic tongue. The fact that Ripley is female is also significant here (although she wasn't originally meant to be, but the fact that she is just adds to it). In the first one, Lambert dies by an Alien tail up her ass.

Thank you! Man. I mention this to people, they're all "what, that doesn't happen."
It uses the tail to rip her clothes off - cause when Ripley finally arrives, you see Lambert's naked leg/foot dripping with blood. How do people not get that?
Sidenote; Parker was rather silly there. Always felt like they hadn't thought of a good way to kill him off before the grand finale, and just added that bit.
Oh brilliant

Isn't that the whole basis for the movie? "you know what hasn't been done in a horror film before? Homosexual male rape. It'll disturb their shit."
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

And if that wasn't clue enough, there's that final scream she makes. You know, that horrible one that becomes all gurgly and then goes super high pitched at the end. That pretty much makes it clear as crystal.
Avatar had a guy in a mech suit pull a mecha knife out to fight a guy.
Avatar irked me some but holy shit those exoskeletons General Ripper and his goons used were so goddamn sweet, the human interface part in particular. I was so mad when those goofy hammerhead rhinos took them out without a fight.
I mean how thick can rhino bone even be because those guns presumably shot really oversized slugs like some kinda rail gun and nature has got nothing on that shit.
Well, Avatar is like super powered glow-y nature, with more floating mountains and other impossible shit. So yeah, that's why they could take on mechs. The giant mecha-sized knife was still cool, though.
I also like avp2 better than avp because of the end basically, and also because haha dumb teenagers
It also had "get to the chopper".
That movie had me rolling my eyes with how straight it played the horror/action movie death points system though. Only movie I can remember seeing recently that telegraphed who was gonna die that hard was Flyboys and man what.

The content isn't what got me, it was the presentation; the Alien style title card, the music ripped direct from the first movie, it seemed put together to contradict all the previous statements and declare "YEP, Alien movie right here!"

there was some stupid commercial for something tying into Avatar that showed audiences marveling at the sheer creativity in the film
one guy says "Who ever heard of mountains that float?"
I still primarily think of Upsidaisium.
Why I fear the ocean.

You're asking this in the Aliens thread.
They rape you in the face, then you give birth to their rape-baby (and die), they look like dicks, and they stalk you in the shadows, hunt you down and either kill you with their phallic tail or their phallic tongue.

He's a weird fucking duck

...goddamn nature.
and still have me revile it so much

It's amazing how bored I was with a movie that was mostly killing hippie furries.
like i said before, it would be a much better movie if it just ended at that shot of them in jail
maybe throw in a final genocide scene
And Stig, man, human beats alien all the time in movies. About time we had one where human fails horribly.
Also the massive bomber spaceship was the best part of Avatar. Damn that thing was cool.
Just some alien props and some exterior planet shots.
Like I am definitely interested in this as a movie. But that trailer was not set up to excite me.

SPEARS VERSUS GUNS
THIS IS A FAITHFUL RECREATION OF THE SPANISH MEETING THE AZTECS
I seriously hate listening to him, but he understands film theory like nobody's business
space spanish vs space aztecs
in space
This should be the way the last half hour of the movie plays out in the Director's Cut

I wish it was space Aztecs.
Instead it was space "what white people in the 70s thought all native americans were like"
that's Avatar 2
because you know after four years (2 years back to Earth, 2 years to get a massive military force out there) Pandora would be fucked.
