Aliens Versus Predator

[snakebitcat]

Short version: See it on the biggest screen you can manage. Just make it a matinee showing.

Slightly longer (yet still spoiler-free) version: I liked 99% of this movie. The other 1% really pissed me off, though. It took a movie that I would otherwise have graded as an A+, and dropped it down to a B.

Will see about going into more detail after getting some sleep.

The only part that annoyed me was the crowd who shared the theater with me, a ton of rude people.

I heard some people not liking the part near the ending between the heroine and the predator... But anyone who didn;t understand what happened there instantly got written off in my book as just a series tourist. They didn't recognise the honor bound traits of a predator. <.<;

Anyways, I'll be interested to hear which part bugged you, maybe it was the five minutes I missed. *points to her journal for that story*

What pissed me off was the scene at the very end, where the chestburster pops out of the dead Predator.

I mean, if I go to the trouble of strapping a thermonuclear device to my warrior's arms as a safeguard against the Xenomorphs getting loose, I'm scanning them when they come back from the hunt, dead or alive. And if I find that they've been infected, I'm killing the thing before the warrior's body gets anywhere near the inside of the ship.

I'll go read your account now. :)
