AvP: Requiem (R-Rated) Trailer Online
posted September 11 2007, 3:05 pm by theangrymob

Category: Movies joe__gee writes, I had no idea this movie was even coming out. "Alien Versus Predator: Requiem" has an amazing, quite adult trailer with exploding aliens, disembowelled predators, and humans going splat, pow, and poof. Keep the volume down if you're at work, the f-bomb is dropped. The site has a simple "age verification" screen. DON'T VISIT IF YOU'RE UNDER 17, or the US Film Ratings Board will hunt you down, call you legal but nasty names, tell your parents, and most importantly, keep Santa Claus from visiting you this Christmas.

Agreed re: brutal. The effects look great. I love what appears to me to be a dig at "E.T." at the beginning of the preview: all of the flashlights going over the northern California forest floor.

I had to watch this a couple of times to believe it. With the body count of the preview (and no age group seems safe) you have to wonder who could actually survive this. It looks fun in a caffeine-chugging chain-smoking squirming in your seat kind of way.

Some language. A lot of violence and gore. No nudity. That's it.

in the 70s, they came up with the expression "blaxploitation". I wonder what this should be called.
"aliensploitation"? nah...
"predatorsploitation"? pffffffff.....
"avploitation"......?

I wonder why the change to this sort of movie? I thought the first AvP was pretty good. Still, for what it is this looks quite entertaining.

Were you high?

But seriously, I think they heard a million cries of "you took two nc17 movies and made a pg13 out of it?!??", did some math, and calculated that the people who saw the pg13 one were now 17.

I actually agree with him! However, I am easily pleased, my criteria is mostly dominated by "entertainment factor". Bad acting, bad plot, etc and affect this, but mostly I go in looking to be entertained. If I am, I am happy. The first one entertained me, thus I left happy. This one looks even more entertaining. Hah.

LOL... no not really... part of it was expectations... Mine were very low and it didn't completely suck. I'm also not a movie snob. I try not to analyze to much and I try to just accept a movie's premise and go with the flow. Some movies don't entertain me at all, so it's not as if I just like everything.

AvP was cool because:
1.) Aliens make for good slicing and dicing scenes
2.) The "plot" was ridiculous, but at least if you accept their word for it, it works.
3.) Almost everyone dies
4.) lots and lots of action

It'll never make you cry or bring to you any deep emotional response, but if you just wanna see some good old fashioned butt-kicking, I think AvP does it.
