Alien, Predator and Alien vs Predator.

I've just watched Requiem and can't believe I didn't see it the first time round.
It was amazing.

Just hurt my tongue by ramming it too hard in my cheek.
 
Just watch the Alien films in my opinion. Can't wait for Prometheus! I thought it was coming out in August! lol. I've been closing my eyes in all the trailers so I know as little as possible.

Unlike me. I've seen too many trailers. I no longer need to see the film. :(

AVP 1 tries to explain the history of alien and predator but ends up being pretty boring.

AVP 2 is far better IMO.

Aliens is the best film of all though.

Couldn't agree more, the fighting in AvP reminded me of power rangers but then it was a 12.

AvP2 actually had some proper Alien/Predator style gore in it.
 
Watched Aliens 3, was okay, not as good as the first 2. Also started watching Alien Resurrection, key word being "started" damn that film was awful.

Sounds like you're on the right track and yes, Resurrection is god damn awful.

Don't bother with the AVP films either.

Predator is an absolute classic though, and although Predator 2 is not even remotely close to it, it's still OK for a watch.

for Gods sake don't listen to anyone here who starts off saying watch AVP first.

Either watch Alien or Predtor first. Followed by Aliens or Predator 2 then Alien 3, Alien 4, Predators.

Could easily sack off completely AVP and AVP2 meh if you are bored.

Whatever you do absolutely watch Alien first!!! Anything else will ruin the brilliance of the suspense in the film!
 
Here is the final and authoritative listing in order of greatness:

1= Alien
1= Predator
2. Aliens
3. Alien3
4. Predator 2
5. Alien 4

I predict and hope that Prometheus will fit in nicely on the above list, somewhere around the 1 to 2.


Optional throw-away, non timelineable, "canon is not able to be screwed up any more than it already is", Friday night B-movies:

AVP
AVP 2
AVP 3
AVP 4
AVP 5
AVP 6
AVP 7
AVP 9
AVP 10
Predators

It's to future proof the post so in 30 years when AVP 10 does exist, the post will still be accurate.

I don't mind Predators. It had potential to be a great addition to the Predator franchise. The drop pods onto another world... very exciting concept. But everything else about it was just "meh".

Don't worry, I gave Transformers 3 10/10.

I never watch trailers, I don't usually know back stories and just watch films for entertainment without letting mis-factual writing getting in the way.
They could re-write the greatest sci-fi series of all time and I wouldn't care (Star Trek).
I turn on, switch off my brain, enjoy the ride and AVP was excellent.
On the other hand I watched AVP 2 the other night and that was awful.

Tonight I watched Alien v Predator and I thought it was excellent.
In fact I gave it 9/10 and would definitely watch again.

How strange, I watched this last night out of the blue as well.

It's not brilliant but it's not as bad as die hard Alien/Predator fans would lead you to believe.

I'd give it a 7/10
 
I also thought AvP was quite good first time round, but after watching it several times since its getting a bit tiresome.

If your going to order them as to greatness i would say:

Alien
Aliens - Both these are as good as the other in different ways, and both 10/10 movies.

Predator - Very good but i always see Carl Weathers arm after its been blown off :)
Alien 3 - Good watch, but always wished they had guns and bishop had survived intact and not just his upper torso.

Then watch the rest if you have time, and make your own mind up, but Alien 4 is so bad apart from the swimming Aliens :)

If you can see past the plot holes, then Alien 4 is bearable right up until the risible ending & that god awful hybrid, i swear blind i half expected the damn thing to go "Mama" at Ripley clone.
