'Aliens vs Predator: Requiem' Trailer Redefines Versus Standards
September 21, 2007 Comments
It's official: after having watched the Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem trailer, Aliens fighting Predators has become my new baseline for struggle. Rising above such contenders as good vs. evil, man vs. nature, Roe vs. Wade, and baby vs. cobra, Aliens vs. Predators is now my standard for one force competing against another force. "Have you ever read Beowulf?" I'll ask. "With good and evil clearly defined, it's essentially a story of the classic struggle between Alien and Predator." That's how life-changing this trailer is.
None of that is true; I could barely make out what was going on in this thing. But it is kind of awesome when the predator uppercuts the alien with his hand claw.
