Remember


and


?

Well, apparently they're both going to get reboots! [€DIT] (alien is getting a prequel apparently)

I can't tell if I think this is awesome or just retarded. What do you think?

This news is so old I'm pretty sure it came via telegram

SA

I don't think it can get any worse than the "AVP" movies.

Only way you can go is up.

Zzulu

I hear ridley scott is in on the action but I just don't know

Grey Ghost

The Predator reboot I heard about a while back

the Alien one I just found out about yesterday, but the thing I read said it would be a prequel rather than a reboot

either way they are both bad ideas

Bearstranaut

I love all alien, predator, and any combination thereof, movies.

Zephyr

hollywood out of ideas

Hobnail

Terrible ideas. They should let Jesse Ventura waterboard everyone involved in both projects.

Wrench N Rockets

The Predators movie is directed by Robert Rodriguez. All is well.

Macro9

I would watch both of those. Especially the Alien one considering that Ridley Scott is involved.

Dadouw

You know theres a thread about aliens

we were talking about the movies already

Zzulu

On one hand, I love Predator and Alien and Aliens. On the other hand, almost everything else released after those 3 have been shiiit

Bacon-BuTTy

There would never be any reason to remake Alien. It's perfect.

Zzulu

Oh snap, they're also going to make Machete from the grindhouse thing

I did not know this

SA

I'm pretty sure the Aliens Vs. Predator movies would have been pretty awesome if it took place off-Earth in the future with Space Marines.

Also good scripts, directors, and actors.

Don't get me wrong I love Alien.

But its so slow and boring. Almost nothing happens in the whole movie.

I'm not saying they should remake it, but its a far from perfect movie.

that's

man

this is an awful opinion

the whole point of that movie is the suspense, the building fear

the slow burn of paranoia and high tension

you are wrong about this

Zzulu

Yeah, alien is supposed to be more of a traditional suspense/thriller/horror rather than a slasher or whatever it is you must have wanted

Dog

the first like hour and a half of alien is so great

i mean the rest is good too but still

it seems like you dislike alien because it succeeded at what it was going for. which is a completely okay opinion to have, but it's seriously almost a perfect horror movie

and aliens is the best action movie ever made

I've seen Alien dozens of times.

It is one of my favorite movies.

I love the suspense. That said, it has flaws and pacing is its biggest.

Did I say I disliked it?

edit: Also Carpenter's The Thing is probably a better Sci-Fi horror film than Alien.

There's a youtube thread for random stuff like this. Unless your goal it to post it in every thread you lay eyes on. In that case then post away.

Grey Ghost

Talon being a retard aside, that song (whatever it is) is really catchy

Wrench N Rockets

You and your sugar rush MTV generation can't sit still for 5 minutes and watch a movie with out some thing blowing up.

Neli

so Machete sounds fantastic

http://img200.imageshack.us/my.php?image=l6d1958a5cbaff16c4b2bc7.gif

It's basically Danny Trejo as a mercenary who goes around and kills people for the government


with machetes

Punsie McKale

yeah neli we all saw grindhouse

Macro9

It's hard to believe that Alien is 30 years old now.

what the fuck talon

nobody cares about five-year-old memes

Punsie McKale

yeah I saw them two years ago

hellobuddy

while there are "good" movies that are slow and boring , Alien is not one of them.

Movie breakdown:

1.Sleeping spaceship wakes up
2.Finds mysterious signal
7.Puts on spacesuits and goes to mysterious planet to investigate
4.Gets attacked by facehuggers
5.Chestburster kills crewmember
6.It grows into AN ALIEN
7.The Alien kills people
8.They build an awesome tracking device
9.They search for alien
10.Cew member turns out to be an android
11.Android goes fucking crazy
12.Alien kills some more people
13.Ellen Ripley takes her clothes off and shoots the alien into space


How on earth is that slow and boring?

Zzulu

edit: Also Carpenter's The Thing is probably a better Sci-Fi horror film than Alien.

"The Thing" is okay, but the special effects in it are starting to look a bit silly. I think Alien and Aliens holds up much better in that area
