Survival of the Fittest rumored to be the title for Alien Versus Predator2. That seems like such a lame name Oh survival of the fittest...They're aliens its not about being "Fit". It sounds like some dumb title for a WWE presentation or a weight lifting compotition. Dont you think they could come up with a better name than "Survival of the fittest". I'm a big fan of Alien and Predator and I dont want this to ruin the good name of the two like that last movie. so if they are going to call it survival of the fittest they better make it a good movie cause the title sure isnt making it seem that way so far.

Idk, survival of the fittest sounds fitting to me. No offence, but the concept of Alien vs Predator is retarted in my mind. Its like Freddy vs Jason and every other idea they came up with to revive dying movies.

well Survival of the fittest just seems really stupid for a movie about aliens. They should've never made the first Avp to begin with or atleast had a better director and script writer that Paul w.s Anderson had no idea what he was doing. On the avp fan site every one just hates that guy for what he did with AvP.

Paul Anderson never knows what he's doing.
AVP was supposed to be done for those who've been asking for it for years.  But of course the director screwed it all to hell. I mean, outside of the fact that there were way too many unexplained aliens, the storyline didn't make any sense. Even Spielberg could do a better job.
If you ignore the the little bits and pieces, the movie wasn't bad.
Supposedly the book makes sense.
But you could also blame the director from Predator 2 with the Alien skull.
But maybe the second one'll be better. AVP is something that just had to happen; in comics at least.

i agree with that partialy. Anderson is just so dumb because of him he screwed up there being any chance for an alien5 which was planned to have aliens on earth or so I heard. Its just like Anderson was just playing with toys making things up as he goes along like in the sacrificial chamber oh "those who chose may enter" some other guy: "no its only the chosen ones may enter" thats lame thats been used to much. and Lex says " its like a jail if the guards dont have there guns then the prisoner run free so we must return the gaurds guns"...what the hell kinda line is that its crap. The predator got killed off too fast and by seeing what happend to the other predator scar should've died just that fast too. Like the first pred had a tail go through him he died but scar had three tails go through him plus other stuff and yet he lived didnt even walk like he was hurt. Andersons Design for the alien was crap too looked nothing like the origanal with the exception of the long head.

Yea this film was so annoying i dont even know why they have mixed the two charecters from different films  together its just wrong. I dont understand why they had Scar helping the woman (forgot her name) it was just stupid.

I'm smiling because they havn't found the bodies yet. :)

If anyone wants more proof of that, look who the director "Mortal Kombat" was.

It's true that MK was not the best movie, but as for blaming Anderson for that, i'm not so sure. I mean they asked him to do a movie based on a fighting game... with that he did surprisingly well. The movie itself may have had its problems, but the storyline was quite good. (i mean the last fighting game movie was Street Fighter, and we all know how that turned out...)

But back on topic, AVP should have been one of those movies where throughout the whole story, people are dying and aliens are exploding. They tried to put a premise in it, which can't be done. Plus, every VG movie is doomed from the start. (with a few exceptions)

Aye to that...slightly off topic, but has anyone actually played the game AvP 2?
I love the multiplayer when you get 10 straight kills as an alien, you morph into a queen and kill everybody...it's so freaking awesome, I've only done it once, but everybody else fighting on the map just turned around, shouting "WHAT IS THAT THING?"  And I slaughtered them all, lol.  LAN parties are so much fun.

On topic, yeah, I thought the ending was the dumbest thing I had ever watched...gaaaah, I still have nightmares of when the Predator hands whats-her-freaking-face the Alien "shield" and spear....*clutches at eyes*
They had better find a new director for this sequel.

I play Avp2 its a good game, and the movie wasnt based on the game it was based on the comics or on the screwed up little mind of anderson. it says on the Avp poster "Who Ever wins we lose" yet the predator and the woman teamed up. whats up with that? the predator i know from the movies games and books would never do that, The predator i know would rip that woman to peices.

I think the other twp preds died early because of their height. Both of them were much shorter than the basketball player in the Scar costume.

But there is the one instance in the Avp books prey-war-Hunter's planet where a woman became a hunter. Which were actually pretty good.

I think that the title's fitting (no pun intended). I mean, it should be the last battle and whoever is the victor (my money's on Predator) will be considered the fittest to survive. The story did make more sense than the movie, in the book, Scar actually scares Lex with the armour. I believe he teamed up with her because, without some extra help, he would have died there.

What I'm curious about is how the hybrid will play into the story plot.

They say that dreamers are an extinct breed. I say they're wrong.

If i've heard correctly the Predalien aka the hybrid alien will not be in avp2. avp2 is based more in the future but still on earth. not in antarctica. I think avp2 will be good if the rumors are true that anderson wont be involved i can look past the name if this is so. Tho you guys where saying the book made more sence or what ever that i have to agree with. Every Avp book i've read was way better then that movie. They should've made the movie about one of the comics.

Man, I was hoping to see what the hybrid could do... ah, well.
    I think we've been saying that the books/comics are always better than the movies for years now.

They say that dreamers are an extinct breed. I say they're wrong.

Just one of those things, too many restrictions in the real world.
And then Anderson complains that it was Fox's fault as well, asking for a movie that was pg13 and less than 90 minutes. but of course it's a hoax...

These someone vs. someone movies are so stupid. Everyone gets in arguments about which is the best, when it always turns out just to be a TIE in the end anyways. I knew people who got in fights over Freddy vs. Jason because they claimed Freddy/Jason was better then the other. But at least that movie had the novelty of laughing at the parents bringing in their 4 year olds to the movie. Betting candy over what the kids/parents would do was the best part.

We're not debating whose better, we're talking about the title and how the director sucks.

I didn't say you guys were debating. I was just putting in my two cents about those kinds of movies D= But apparently opinions aren't too welcome.

The phrase "survival of the fittest" was created by Charles Darwin (I think), and means fit to survive, not physicly fit.

Actually I believe it was his friend Huxley, and has more to do with your fitness, the number of offspring you can survive to bear.

well all the more reason it doesnt suit AvP why not have it called Primal Hunt like the game I liked that.

i used to love the AvP movie but then i was brain washed by the other avp fans into hating it.
