Title: Aliens vs. Predator - Requiem trailer - slight spoilers
Post by: Rico on August 25, 2007, 10:00:04 AM
Wow!  Big warning - this trailer is very, very graphic with a lot of violence.  Not for the faint of heart.  But man - this looks to be like a wicked movie!

P.S.  Trailer seems to also kind of give away quite a bit.  So don't watch if you mind some slight spoilers for this movie.

Yes, look really interesting. Seems strange for such a graphic trailer. Agreed that it gave away a lot as well in terms of spoilers.

This was one of the trailers that Fox wanted to show at Comic Con and Comic Con said no and Fox pulled out of the Con. I agree with Comic Con on saying no way.. this was way to bloody for the crowd at comic con, way to many families there.

A Good decision by far, and unfortunately that much gore and violence does not often translate into a good movie.

Gory for sure, but not as Violent as that John Rambo trailer from a few months ago floating around on YouTube

God they are ruining the Alien series with this garbage :( . I am a huge fan of the Alien series but this whole stuff with the Predator is just silly to me. Sorry to sound negative but the stories are more about how to get the Alien and Predator on the screen at the same time rather than anything actually making sense. Just my opinion.

I agree with you, the last Alien preditor movie was ok but very thin on a story and was mediocre at best.

What made Alien so famous was the lack of what you saw. This dumb trailer looks like a Freddy/Jason movie from the 80's.

I'm just impressed that there is a second one. Back in 95, at the theater showcase, they gave out stuff promoting AVP ... what was it 10 years later that it was finally released?

I just hope that it does not ruin the possiblity of a Alien only movie. There were so many rumors about Weaver,Cameron and Scott wanting to do something.....

I saw the preview and I think it looks cool.  A ninety minute escpae from reality with aliens kickin the crap of each other.  I don't know that I would see it in a theater but I will definitely give it a rent.

Amen to that, brother. ALIEN is just so great and ALIENS was a blast. I even liked ALIEN3 as it was so....interesting, Ressurection was a dissapointment, however, a real missed opportunity. AVP is complee garbage.

We actually have a thread where we talk about this trailer and movie... I'm going to combine the threads.

I don't think it's meant to be a Christmas release- it comes out Jan. 18th, I think. 

The clip actually wasn't as gory as I feared- it was more "sci-fi" violence and gore; much like that seen on First Contact or Starship Troopers.  Not for the faint of heart, but certainly not as bad as slasher flicks like Saw, Hannibal, and Hostel. 



Thanks for the link, man; I think I'm gonna have to check this movie out.  It actually looks like it might be pretty cool!  8)

It opens on Christmas Day.

Just watch the preview.. looks really good.. I think it's cool that it picks up right after the first movie.  Still won't be seeing in around Christmas time.. maybe the new year. The first trailer the released was rated R and had a ton of gore.

:-\  You're right; I just checked IMDB.  I didn't realize that the Jan 18th date was for the UK release. 

Pretty lame decision on the part of the folks releasing the film; I can't imagine many folks wanting to see this type of film during the holidays.

I still plan to see it at some point.  I've enjoyed most of the previous Alien movies, and this looks like it will be better than AVP.

I'm actually going to merge this thread with the other AVP thead.

Wraith you need to check out the trailer for this film.. WOW is it gory.

Yeah; I saw the red-bar trailer; it was pretty rough.  I hope that the gore-trailer isn't a true reflection of what the film will be like.  I hope that it was just a marketing strategy to reel in the slasher-fan crowd (I'm guessing that the R trailer was shown before a slasher-flick).
