Listen up Hollywood, and you too Sylvester Stallone, “Your sequels blow!” Rocky, you should be dead by now, give it up. Rambo, vietnam is over, come back home!
As we watched the previews for Alien vs Predator 2, today, I couldn’t help but notice all the trailers were for sequels. Let’s see we saw previews for Step Up 2 which looked like another gay dancing movie and Rambo which is horribly predictable. You ought to pay me to see those sequels and you should have paid me to see Alien vs Predator 2.
When Alien vs Predator 1 was released I thought that some of the sets looked fake, especially the one with the frozen town. Granted, it had a decent story and was able to keep my attention. Something I can’t say the same for Alien vs Predator 2.
The whole movie was dreadfully slow. It was painful, like pulling teeth. Whoever approved the script for it should be fired. There were a lot of “filler” scenes were you would just see fighting between an alien and a predator. How boring. Wake me when it’s over. At least in the previous film, there was an interaction and understanding between the humans and the predators. Not so in part AVP2. There was just so much killing and dieing that you didn’t care who lived and who died anymore. To hell with ‘em all. They even had the audacity to kill of the hot chick at the end played who was played by Kristen Hager. What kind of world are we living in where the only hot chick in a movie dies. Pathetic.
Perhaps they tried to had. No, they did try too hard. It was over KILL. They must have sat down at a table and said, “What haven’t we killed before? Let’s see.. Oh! How about children and pregnant women. Sounds great! Lets do it.” And so they did. Hold on, I am going to give away the ending (don’t worry it is not worth seeing anyways) but at the end they even killed the whole town! Where haven’t we seen a town blown up due to containmentation before? Boring. It would have been better if the military came in and killed them all with hand weapons and then used the alien technology to build a ship and fly to deliver the nuke to the alien home world. Now I’m thinking that I should be writing the scripts. People that know me, know I’d be good at inventing crazy-ass plots like that. What has Hollywood come to!
It was the same old story. I wanted the aliens or the predators to do something new that they’ve never done before. Don’t they ever invest in technology. They are able to travel through space, but yet they can’t come up with like better weapons. The only weapons the predator has is 1). Kung Fu 2). A knife 3). A shoulder mounted ray gun 4). a comakozie bomb on their wrist. Aliens what can they do besides pour acid on you and pop out your belly. Give me something exciting, not the same ol’ dog and pony show. My brother complained because they only sent one predator after all the aliens. And it is true.. one predator? Lame sauce supreme!
The only saving grace is that they set themselves up well for Alien vs Predator 3. I am just not convinced that these same directors can pull it off.
The Apprentice is like the characters on heroes, they die but their powers keep bringing them back to life. What powers did Donald Trump use to get The Apprentice back on the air? Perhaps his power is in his hair. If the Don hears something he doesn’t like his hair leaps off his head and attaches itself to the head of its prey and starts sucking the brains out of it.
