Humans Were needed In Alien Vs Predator

[curling]

After reading all the other threads everybody basically said that humans were not needed in this movie. But the movie cleary pointed out that the humans were needed to spawn the aliens into their bigger form. I mean they used the humans in ancient days and even in 1904 with the whalers with the cacoons. And in present day they used the heat of the pyramids to attract humans to the pyramid so they could spawn the bigger aliens. Yet not one of you said that in the threads about the movie. Were ya'll asleep or what?

Personally, I was entertained not the best predator or alien move but for the matinee it was fun. One thing I don't know is how ya'll percieved the two predators that were killed were young ones? Also why did the one predator need to blow up the pyramid because the other predators in the ship were right above them watching. Couldn't they have killed all the aliens? One more thought I wonder why they predators designed the pyramid to shift every ten minutes. Just to make it more challenging or what?

No we were all at church asking god why.

The predators were young and going through a rite of passage for their warrior clan. That rite of passage was surviving the hunt for aliens. The pyramid shifted every ten minutes to keep the aliens off balance and guessing. The predator blew up the pyramid because that was his last resort and he would win if he survived the blast.

It wasn't that bad dude. It was entertaining like huck said especially if you are a predatro and alien fan.

The rite of passage deal was explained in the movie or was plainly obvious to me from the basic explanation given during the movie. The shifting period was to make the hunt more difficult. The humans were needed but certainly it wasn't worth all the wasted time doing what they passed off as "character development". I would have rather them focused more on the predators and have the hunt last longer.

Agreed. I guess hollywood thing they always need to put a human element in even if it doens't warrant it. Yea it would have been cool to focused more on the predators and the hunt.

There is hope on the way check out this interview with the director about HIS cut. http://www.countingdown.com/movies/546747/board?viewpost=3534561

Good movie. The pyramid was definately a right of passage for the young predators. I only wish the intro was shorter and more alien v. predator fighting. A few badass marines would have been cool to but it would not have fit the storyline.

Dude in the interview I linked they say there is more alien vs predator action and they explain more about the incabation(sp) time with the aliens in the humans. Some how they shoot up the alien mother with harmones. They also said there will be no off screen deaths. You will see all the killing and gore. The movie was suppose to be R in the first place. So the director basically said don't judge me until you see the directors cut. That is putting his butt on the line.

The dvd better be the director's cut. Otherwise I'll save my cash for a Fatburger.

LMAO.. bad ass marines. god my guts hurt. yah i think all humans were butchered anyways. it kinda sucked for the humans. And the only one that survived was this little ugly bitch. I rather watch the arrogant rich old man with asthma fighting to survive. Seriously, atleast she should have been a little hot. Let me guess.. maybe angelina jolie would have been better. She would take on the aliens and the predators in the pyramid for warm up. And then she would take out her gunz to take out the rest of those pity predators on the ship to finish it off. Bad Ass MARINES. god! i gotto stop laughing....

 

[big_bad_buff]
