Jan 17 2007First AVP 2 Image

I don't know what I was expecting, but somehow this first image from Alien Versus Predator 2, while maintaining a strict adherance to the concept, is also utterly pathetic. Maybe it's that the Alien is hanging like an enamored girlfriend off the Predator's arm. Maybe it's that the flimsy rubber of the Alien suit is collapsing under the slight pressure of the Predator actor's hand. Or maybe I've just finally outgrown the notion of two characters from unrelated series duking it out in a story that strains to stretch an idiotic premise across an hour-and-a-half. That being said, if they make a movie where Superman fights Batman, or anything where werewolves fight zombies, it will be totally f***ing sweet.

The Alien costume makers are just going through the motions at this point. They've stopped trying to make the Alien's look like real living organisms and are just making costumes look like past costumes. And why's Predator shooting beams from the top of his right eyebrow? WHAT A STUPID PLACE FOR A BEAM SHOOTER!

#2 - I also remember seeing a zombies vs vampires movie at Blockbuster one time. I refuse to rent it, due to the fact I may kill myself from it being so awesome.

#3 - I thought that was just a sight/ scope?
#4 - Something Awful did a review of that movie. I have no idea how anyone could possibly screw up such a solid concept.

Might it actually be Jean-Claude Van Damme this time? He run out of blow yet?
