The Predator in "Predator 2" didn't kill Maria Conchita Alonso's character because she was defenseless and pregnant. So, technically they haven't mercilessly killed EVERY human in the previous Predator films. Also, after Danny Glover kills the Predator, the other Predators reveal themselves and let him go (presumably because he defeated the one he had been chasing).
The only Predators with no mercy on anything or anyone are the Blood Berserker species who ironically were genetically spawned from the DNA strain of City Hunter code named Ghost the antagonist in Predator II.

"When the alien bursts out of a human, they don't have human qualities" Um, literally has a human skull visible inside its dome in some version. And the incisors and canine combination is human like, combined with the humanoid limb structure... Which is in contrast to the "Runner" Alien from Alien 3 which was more quadrupedal because of coming from a cow (or dog). Really, the whole "Aliens take some qualities from their host" was an incredibly interesting part of their lore and a reason the arcade game went absolutely wild with winged aliens and scorpion aliens and it is profoundly disappointing that it is comparatively unused in the movies.
One of the best examples I think is the alien in Mortal Kombat ending you can see all the different aliens based on the different Mortal Kombat characters
The Predators weren’t “dicking around in space” after cutting the tunnel to the pyramid with their space laser. The movie revealed later that the Predators deliberately lured humans to the Antarctica pyramid so they’d get Facehuggered and produce the xenomorphs that the Predators wanted to hunt, to earn their prized Plasmacasters and the right to bear the special mark that indicated they had killed a xenomorph. The Predators weren’t going to sacrifice their own people to the Aliens. And they weren’t there simply to retrieve the Plasmacasters. It was part of their ritual to EARN their prizes. That’s also the reason there were 3 Predators and 3 guns. The Predators lasered the tunnel through the ice to HELP the humans reach the pyramid faster, because it would’ve taken the humans weeks or months to reach the pyramid, IF they could’ve accomplished it at all. The Predators sat back and WAITED for the humans to reach the pyramid, trip the switch that defrost the Alien Queen, produce eggs, and get ambushed by the Facehuggers, so there’d be xenomorphs for the Predators to hunt. If anything deserves a cinema sin, it’s that the Predators’ elaborate setup plan working so perfectly it could only happen in a movie.
I thought the whole point of the predators letting the humans get to the pyramid first was to let them get “facehugged” so they have something to fight.
You’re absolutely right and cinemasins doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The Yautja constructed the pyramid so anyone entering would trigger the ritual, get trapped and then facehugged. All so the unblooded Yautja could become blooded and ascend into their clan
@@mksilver Okay, but if ritual sacrifice was part of the culture the Predators fostered then why the floor trigger, instead of a big START THE RITUAL lever? Did the Preds come back and remodel the place after the big nuclear blast in the past? "Maybe we can lure some future humans here when they have tech to find it!"
@@scockery yh we humans are dumb and would probably pull a lever without questioning it 😆 but makes more sense that the “activation” be hidden so the prey is unaware whats gonna happen. In the flashback scene from thousands of years ago, we willingly sacrificed ourselves but seems this may not always have been the case. The Yautja seem to use this pyramid every 100 years so easily would have rebuilt it (or we did as their worshippers). Remember the pyramid is like a maze designed to test the Yautja so making all this pressure plates etc is very believable
@@mksilver Of course, the whole point of letting Humans enter the pyramid first was for them to encounter Facehuggers and breed Xenomorphs. However, it's still an extremely bad idea to use a lever or a pressure plate that can easily and/or unwittingly activated by a Human, instead of a mechanism that can only be activated by a Predator. Don't forget they can't allow the Xenomorphs to take over their proving grounds, since it's far too important to them. First, they need the proving ground for their youngsters, so imagine if they travelled all the way to planet Earth, just to see it's either a warzone or a post-apocalyptic wasteland where the sole remaining species is the Xenomorph (proving oneself in a controlled hunt and being thrown into a war of that scale, without the proper experience, are two drastically things). Second, it seemed to me that they would consider it the ultimate dishonour if they allowed their prey to gain such power (they would rather erase all traces of their passage and the civilisations they have influenced than allow the world to realise they have failed to contain the Xenomorphs). Besides, they seem far more interested in the hunt than in invading other planets (at least, that's just my two cents), so there really is no point in becoming too 'noticeable' to the Humans (and, yes, that includes making sure to keep the Xenomorph population properly contained).
Yeah I think the Predator code is followed pretty well in the movie. The guys up top are the mercenaries Weyland hired, not drillers. They were armed and considered a threat.
Also in the first movie Arnold tried to fight it and it was about to kill him, looked at his skull and noticed it had a flaw he didn't like or something wrong with him (still not sure what exactly), and tossed him on the ground like he wasn't worth killing, and then only fought him again when Arnold got up and attacked again, same as Weyland. Typically they may kill anyone they see with a weapon, but sometimes they just decide to spare someone out of pity in a sportsman sense, like it's not manly to hunt a deer that's already limping and unable to run, these are an entire species of hunters with deep honor systems. The one in the second movie killed every person in the subway car because everyone happened to be armed, even little old ladies, but didn't kill the female cop who was pregnant. But almost did kill a child at the cemetary who was holding a toy gun because it couldn't tell if it was real or not, I think it only changed its mind when the boy seemed to notice it in the tree (even though it wsa cloaked) and offered it candy, and it decided he wasn't a threat at the time.
@@-desertpackrat Yeah, you got a lot wrong there. The predator in the first movie saw Arnold as the best prey and took off his mask and shoulder gun to fight him hand to hand to make it an even fight. In the second movie, he didn't kill the kid because he scanned the toy gun and realized it wasn't real and let him live.
The original xenomorph actually had a skull that resembled a humans skull from the front, eye sockets and a nasal bone. It was barely visible through it's dark glossy face plate. I think it was the best design for xenomorphs making them so ominous and horrifying while still making them very alien to the viewers overall.
@@joedollarbiden9823 You know how to post a comment on UA-cam but you don’t know how to look up the first Alien’s design or scenes from the movie? Why?
yeah everyone knows aliens take on the features of the host, and aliens LOOKED humanoid when coming from humans, what the hell is he saying "they don't look human" when they are intentionally humanoid
@@wwld9823 Well, I only saw the first two alien movies, and I can confidently say that "human-like" wasn't a thing that came to my mind when I saw the aliens. This idea obviously came later.
@@tarfap.kpamber9732 pretty sure they founded the channel on that ethos... lie to bump the sin count... hahaha... tbh, I know they play it up, cut the clips to fit etc... but its a guilty pleasure...
3:07 That actually makes alot of sense. They asked other top instructors and when Weyland explained the situation they said no. That's why they drug her out there without explaining so she would have a harder time saying no like they did. And they were right since she did eventually agree to train them. This was an example of GOOD writing.
“The Aliens don’t have human qualities when they come out of humans” Uh, yeah they do. You’ve just only seen aliens with the human qualities until because get this: you’ve only seen them come out of humans...
Xenomorphs 100% take on attributes of the host. The Xeno in Alien 3 took on dog characters and it was different than the human based Xenos in Alien and Aliens.
@@dvader518 Acted more like a dog tho. The production hell history of that movie is pretty damn interesting so it's a mess. Which cut do you prefer? Silly looking puppet in front of a blue screen doesn't match to the actors in suits and animatronics.
But ad revenue...lol. And I know some accuse CS of padding the videos runtime but...like for example the three-minute Hunger Games one is just painful to watch because it's so rushed. Similar # of sins but in half the time.
The Alien taking on properties of it's host has always been part of the lore. You just mostly see ones from human hosts. I think the one in 3 came from a dog.
Right. In the 90s I read a book where they breeded xenomorphs on an asteroid with sheep an cows to make them less aggressive. It didn't really work out. The asteroid was lost in you guessed it giantic nuclear explosion ...
@@TheMuffin18 well, in-universe, there's a but of a discretion between the xenomorphs birthed from humans. In the first film, the xeno had a very smooth head and clearly defined human structures. In the second and 4th film, their heads were more bony and structured, while their limbs were more spiders and less human.
The Xenomorphs have always taken on qualities and attributes of their host, this is why the one in Alien 3, which came out of a dog looked different, and if you look at the comics, there are lots of other Xenomorphs that look different from having different species hosts. And the length of time an alien takes to incubate and hatch depends on what kind it is. The most common ones, the drones/workers, hatch fairly quickly. The soldiers (like the one from the first movie) take longer. The queens take the longest to hatch, The Predalien at the end is a queen, hence why it lays eggs in the sequel, it just looks very different from the standard queen and isn't stuck in place with a huge birthing canal.
Of course The Predalien Queen looks different, it spawned from the Predator with Yautja qualities, makes sense that the queens look different and have different stats and all (like in viddy gams).
@@hunterclark5345 Xenomorphs spawn fram humans have many parts of their anatomy, if you look closely. Some examples: They have a visible humanoid rib cage, humanoid feet and when they don't run fast or climb, they can stand upright. Their teeth are also close to human teeth and their hands also have thumbs.
You could walk into a comic book shop, close your eyes, spin around three times, and point... you can literally find a MULTITUDE of Alien, Predator, and Alien versus Predator comics, ANY ONE of which could be the basis for one of these movies...
Hollywood hacks like to do their own spin, so they can get more credit. It's why GI JOE RISE OF COBRA and the Transformer movies were so dumb and messy. They had gobs of easily adaptable material literally story boarded for them but that's other more talented, people's work.
This is just another in the long line of countless times Hollywood has taken great source material and butchered it into something unrecognizable and stupid because they either never were familiar with the source material to begin with or never understood the source material. I have a strong suspicion that most Hollywood directors and/or writers never bother to familiarize themselves with source material beyond the superficial level.
I am about to watch this for the first time. If Cinema Sins doesn't sin the plot hole of the fact that the Predator only hunts in the warmest places during the warmest parts of the year so he would never be in the artic... then I'm sinning Cinema Sins. Carry on.
Damn I can't believe I've never had that thought you're completely right that was established.. and the predators are still only in fishnet here... I loved this series of both sides since I was quite young and never made that connection
...and that's what's wrong with modern day audiences at large: they trust comedy web-shows that have to find faults in movies no-matter-what. Even movies like "Apocalypse Now" or "Taxi Driver" don't hold up to that level of scrutiny.
I never considered that Beaker from The Muppets was so-named because of scientists use of beakers. Now that I have, I'll be thinking about it all day. Thanks Cinema Sins.
@@sage4365 Why am I not surprised? And why did I spend time wondering how they could make out? Like the biological mechanics? Human mouths and Predator mouths are quite different.
I just saw the Fast 9 trailer.. honestly you better reinforce your sin counter with the same plot armour that Vin Diesel has and you should be alright until F10.
12:06 It's consistant with the lore, they don't kill weak prey as there's not sport or honor in that kill, when weyland attacked him he prove he was a worthy kill.
The Alien in Alien 3 has dog like qualities, it walks on 4 legs, is smaller and I believe they actually used a dog in costume to film some of the scenes. So the alien predator hybrid makes sense. Minus one sin ?
@@jakushkadarkstalker6278 I found it so weird that they changed it to a dog. Chestbursters arent small, it wouldnt even fit into a dog unless the Facehugger can literally choose the size of the Chestburster it implants.
@@sarahgabriella84 The facehugger doesn't choose anything. I remember reading that the embryo implanted into a host absorbs characteristics of the host through incubation which is why they can appear very different in size and stature. A chestburster from a human isn't really that big, smaller than a regular house cat, then molts into an adolescant form which is the one we see in the first movie. The process is very short actually as the first alien wiped out the crew of the Nostromo in less that a day. The alien in the third movie, birthed by a quadruped, doesn't have the ability to stand up on two legs easily. Then the predalien has predator mandibles and dreadlocks as well as a more predator shaped head. Generally those are much larger as well, though not as large as a praetorian.
There is SO much wrong with this flick. How can you put together two iconic sci-fi creatures and make such a ho-hum movie is a feat in itself. This is a lesson on how not to make a film.
"How can you put together two iconic sci-fi creatures and make such a ho-hum movie"? By aiming for a PG-13 rating. It was inevitable that the crossover of two R-rated creature-features would be compromised weaksauce as soon as it was saddled with that PG-13 rating. And the "unrated" cut doesn't fix much, either, because the whole film was shot with that PG-13 rating in mind so there was virtually no "harder" material to actually put back in.
Not really, the first part is right, but the last part says "mi sto cagando addosso" which literally translates to "I'm shitting myself" but yeah, it's like asking for the translation of "what time is it?" And getting "What hour and minute of the day is it?" Not really a straight translation
I was so drunk when I saw this I barely remember any of it. Thank you Cinema Sins for keeping me from going back to watch it and see if it was worth remembering.
When I saw this in the theater we started singing “When a Man Loves a Woman” during the scenes with Alexa and the Predator. Thanks for letting me remember that.
I'm adding 4 sins per commercial break we all had to go through. And 20 sins for accurately blaming Captain Janeway for what she did in the Delta Quadrant
Understanding Yautja lore makes understanding why one ignored Weylon a lot easier. Essentially they're trophy hunters and only go after those that are physically capable of fighting back. So no women, children, elderly or sickly (unless they're actually capable of fighting back or if they're aggressors)
I really loved how you took this one apart. However, I just rewatched it and I have to admit that I kinda like it. It's pretty solid action-fun-entertainment. Just like Predators. Only the first 40 minutes are really stupid and slow but when it gets going it's pretty decent - stupid but enjoyable.
Weirdest thing about this movie is that there's already an excellent, 'Aliens vs Predator' story from Dark Horse comics that they could have simply adapted to the silver screen instead of this mess they created instead.
Always some asshole who wants to make a thing “theirs” so they “leave their mark” but none of us want that. We do not give two shits about “your” version! What we want is the product already made adapted for screen not friggin rewritten.
Do Everything Great About Alien vs. Predator next! I love when the cinemawins channel does a video on mediocre or panned films. It adds a new perspective that I always love!
@@nothingtosay3918 Yeah it's cooler when you get to notice all these little things you didn't see before and how it can show you how much effort was put into a film you had dismissed.
This is still honestly one of my favorites. I love how Scar (the predator with the mark on his helmet) teams up with her due to she saved his life and showed that she became blooded. Which is a ritual for the predators to kill a xenomorph. So she became an adult by doing that. I happened in the comics with another clan
This is actually the only movie I’ve seen from either franchise.When I heard people hated it I was surprised. I haven watched it in a long time but I remember likening it
17:05 I always feel baffled when people in "Alien" movies react to said creatures in a "gah, ugly!" manner. I dunno, perhaps (more than likely) my perception of beauty is distorted, but xenomorphs are... literally gorgeous? Like, "sleek black perfect murder machine"-kind gorgeous? *ding*?..
From experience i can tell you that "This must be X" - "Are you stupid, it never could be X" is like, real life scientist standard dialogue when discussing new things. Especially if you have people crosspollinating from different fields. What it comes down to at the end of the day is this: If none of you have an idea what's happening, you start educated guesses. In a room full of smart people chances are good though someone is ahead of you in the field where you could just guess and immediately shuts you down so you can postulate the next idea. It's why smart people like hanging together. I admit it's tedious and boring and obnoxious from the outside and doesn't make for good movie material. It is, however, very much on point x3
19:03 cool thing about that, the Xenomorphs main thing about them is that they combine their genes with their hosts, hence the predator qualities, in the first Alien movie you can see a human shaped skull in the xenomorphs head, as well as human like hands, in Alien 3 the alien that came from the dog actually walked on all 4’s, in Prometheus the alien had Engineer traits, etc. That’s why they can vary so much
Well, the Xenos adopt characteristics from their hosts. Having Predator characteristics does make sense. In Alien 3 the Xeno was quadrupedal (with no back horns) because it came out of an animal.
I love seeing my favorite movies on here, it's fun to pick at them and joke around, no matter how much I love a movie. It's just more to discuss and I'm here for it.
Unless I'm imagining things, it seems like CS is pumping videos out like a madman! Maybe due to quarantine? I'm not complaining! Keep 'em coming; I love these!
Technically the xenos do take on qualities of their hosts. Hence the reason we have different types. Read the genealogy tree or whatever its called. Kyle Hill did a good video about it.
Only it literally started with Raiders of the Lost Ark being deemed too unfriendly to family entertainment for a PG-13, and in his "letters to Hollywood" Jeremy ranted about this at length.
12:06 Predators will not attack anything they consider to be unarmed or incapable of fighting back. They consider it dishonourable: things you should know before reviewing a film.
Actually, Xenomorphs DO utilize the dna of their host's species when they infect a creature. The Dog Alien in Alien 3 had a different skeletal structure than a typical human infecting one. Humans are just the most common ones we ever see because every aliens movie took place in a setting comprised completely of humans
Gonna sin you one. Looking at a dead, curled in a ball, fossilized facehugger would most definitely be associated with a scorpion...the only thing a rational man would relate to. He's seen it for 5 seconds and would have no way of knowing that tail doesn't flip over its back.
Indeed, and since it has eight legs (scorpions are arachnids for readers who doesn't know) the number of legs combined with the tail makes it a very well placed guess.
13:32 - Actually what is more amazing is that character was able to enter the combination so quickly. The Mayan & Aztec calendars are both completely different from the Catholic calendar, and thus require a total recalculation of year/month/day. The Aliens themselves would have just been told the combination before arriving.
Penguins are named after Alexander von Humboldt who was far from boring. Please check him out if you are intetested in the foundation of biogeography. He was an explorer and naturalist among other things. [Edit: Your hot take on Janeway is well a hot take. I'd say the true villian is coffee and the lack of it 😉🖖]
17:32 It is the displacement of air that makes that large "sonic boom" Air does not compress, so when something like an explosion happens it pushes the air away from it at incredible speed. Like in the first Alien movie, they had the tracker that looked for air displacement. Any object displaces air, it is why you can create wind by fanning your hand, or why aircraft work. 19:33 I thought that was way funnier than i should have.
Sin N13 : Wrong, he was taking pictures of him self =) Sin N14 : Same as before Sin N78 : The predator does not leave Weyland cuz he is sick and is goin to die anyway, he leave him cuz he is not a worthy prey ( Yautja Honor Code)("Take only the worthy prey.

im more curious how a warrior species develops space tech instead of just hunting themselves or there native animals to extinction

This was my first AVP movie that I ever watched. The sad Part is that wwas 12 and I found this movie shitty
@The Dead Roach Society sure
Well, they fixed that in the sequel, so everything's good now, right? _Right?_
I thought the whole point of the predators letting the humans get to the pyramid first was to let them get “facehugged” so they have something to fight.
You’re absolutely right and cinemasins doesn’t know what he’s talking about. The Yautja constructed the pyramid so anyone entering would trigger the ritual, get trapped and then facehugged. All so the unblooded Yautja could become blooded and ascend into their clan
@@mksilver Okay, but if ritual sacrifice was part of the culture the Predators fostered then why the floor trigger, instead of a big START THE RITUAL lever? Did the Preds come back and remodel the place after the big nuclear blast in the past? "Maybe we can lure some future humans here when they have tech to find it!"
@@scockery yh we humans are dumb and would probably pull a lever without questioning it 😆 but makes more sense that the “activation” be hidden so the prey is unaware whats gonna happen. In the flashback scene from thousands of years ago, we willingly sacrificed ourselves but seems this may not always have been the case.
The Yautja seem to use this pyramid every 100 years so easily would have rebuilt it (or we did as their worshippers). Remember the pyramid is like a maze designed to test the Yautja so making all this pressure plates etc is very believable
@@mksilver Of course, the whole point of letting Humans enter the pyramid first was for them to encounter Facehuggers and breed Xenomorphs. However, it's still an extremely bad idea to use a lever or a pressure plate that can easily and/or unwittingly activated by a Human, instead of a mechanism that can only be activated by a Predator. Don't forget they can't allow the Xenomorphs to take over their proving grounds, since it's far too important to them. First, they need the proving ground for their youngsters, so imagine if they travelled all the way to planet Earth, just to see it's either a warzone or a post-apocalyptic wasteland where the sole remaining species is the Xenomorph (proving oneself in a controlled hunt and being thrown into a war of that scale, without the proper experience, are two drastically things). Second, it seemed to me that they would consider it the ultimate dishonour if they allowed their prey to gain such power (they would rather erase all traces of their passage and the civilisations they have influenced than allow the world to realise they have failed to contain the Xenomorphs). Besides, they seem far more interested in the hunt than in invading other planets (at least, that's just my two cents), so there really is no point in becoming too 'noticeable' to the Humans (and, yes, that includes making sure to keep the Xenomorph population properly contained).
@@mksilver Then they become Young Blood's if I remember correctly .

Sadly the Predator not killing him due to his sickness is one of the few things that makes sense (Due to Yautja culture)
Yeah I think the Predator code is followed pretty well in the movie. The guys up top are the mercenaries Weyland hired, not drillers. They were armed and considered a threat.
He wasn't worthy prey until he used the improvised flamethrower
Also in the first movie Arnold tried to fight it and it was about to kill him, looked at his skull and noticed it had a flaw he didn't like or something wrong with him (still not sure what exactly), and tossed him on the ground like he wasn't worth killing, and then only fought him again when Arnold got up and attacked again, same as Weyland. Typically they may kill anyone they see with a weapon, but sometimes they just decide to spare someone out of pity in a sportsman sense, like it's not manly to hunt a deer that's already limping and unable to run, these are an entire species of hunters with deep honor systems. The one in the second movie killed every person in the subway car because everyone happened to be armed, even little old ladies, but didn't kill the female cop who was pregnant. But almost did kill a child at the cemetary who was holding a toy gun because it couldn't tell if it was real or not, I think it only changed its mind when the boy seemed to notice it in the tree (even though it wsa cloaked) and offered it candy, and it decided he wasn't a threat at the time.
@@-desertpackrat "these are an entire species of hunters with deep honor systems"
honor my ass. they are a bunch of cowards.
@@-desertpackrat Yeah, you got a lot wrong there. The predator in the first movie saw Arnold as the best prey and took off his mask and shoulder gun to fight him hand to hand to make it an even fight. In the second movie, he didn't kill the kid because he scanned the toy gun and realized it wasn't real and let him live.
The original xenomorph actually had a skull that resembled a humans skull from the front, eye sockets and a nasal bone. It was barely visible through it's dark glossy face plate. I think it was the best design for xenomorphs making them so ominous and horrifying while still making them very alien to the viewers overall.

The Alien taking on properties of it's host has always been part of the lore. You just mostly see ones from human hosts. I think the one in 3 came from a dog.
Right. In the 90s I read a book where they breeded xenomorphs on an asteroid with sheep an cows to make them less aggressive. It didn't really work out. The asteroid was lost in you guessed it giantic nuclear explosion ...
Dog in the theatrical cut, cow or bull in the extended cut.
But yeah, that's why it was a quadruped in that one.
Thank you for saying this, so I don't have to.
Bingo. Aliens born from humans even have an elongated form of a human skull inside their heads.
@@TheMuffin18 well, in-universe, there's a but of a discretion between the xenomorphs birthed from humans. In the first film, the xeno had a very smooth head and clearly defined human structures. In the second and 4th film, their heads were more bony and structured, while their limbs were more spiders and less human.
As a former architecture student taking "slump" photos of sleeping classmates to show them later was a major highlight of our college experience.
uh....wtf that's fucking creepy dude😐
It's not a road trip with classmates or campers without taking sleeping pictures

Not as creepy as drawing a penis on a sleeping persons face
The Xenomorphs have always taken on qualities and attributes of their host, this is why the one in Alien 3, which came out of a dog looked different, and if you look at the comics, there are lots of other Xenomorphs that look different from having different species hosts. And the length of time an alien takes to incubate and hatch depends on what kind it is. The most common ones, the drones/workers, hatch fairly quickly. The soldiers (like the one from the first movie) take longer. The queens take the longest to hatch, The Predalien at the end is a queen, hence why it lays eggs in the sequel, it just looks very different from the standard queen and isn't stuck in place with a huge birthing canal.
Of course The Predalien Queen looks different, it spawned from the Predator with Yautja qualities, makes sense that the queens look different and have different stats and all (like in viddy gams).
Actually the xeno in the first Alien movie was a Drone. the ones in AVP were also Drones while in Aliens and AVP:R the xeno's are Warriors.
What features do xenonorphs get from humans?
@@hunterclark5345 Xenomorphs spawn fram humans have many parts of their anatomy, if you look closely. Some examples: They have a visible humanoid rib cage, humanoid feet and when they don't run fast or climb, they can stand upright. Their teeth are also close to human teeth and their hands also have thumbs.

You could walk into a comic book shop, close your eyes, spin around three times, and point... you can literally find a MULTITUDE of Alien, Predator, and Alien versus Predator comics, ANY ONE of which could be the basis for one of these movies...
But like Birdman always says, Jeremy doesn't think you need to read any books that the movies are based on. He thinks they're irrelevant
@@keithwoodcrest I think the OP meant that the filmmakers could've done so and come up with a better movie.
Hollywood hacks like to do their own spin, so they can get more credit. It's why GI JOE RISE OF COBRA and the Transformer movies were so dumb and messy. They had gobs of easily adaptable material literally story boarded for them but that's other more talented, people's work.
This is just another in the long line of countless times Hollywood has taken great source material and butchered it into something unrecognizable and stupid because they either never were familiar with the source material to begin with or never understood the source material. I have a strong suspicion that most Hollywood directors and/or writers never bother to familiarize themselves with source material beyond the superficial level.

@@jakushkadarkstalker6278 I found it so weird that they changed it to a dog. Chestbursters arent small, it wouldnt even fit into a dog unless the Facehugger can literally choose the size of the Chestburster it implants.
@@sarahgabriella84 The facehugger doesn't choose anything. I remember reading that the embryo implanted into a host absorbs characteristics of the host through incubation which is why they can appear very different in size and stature. A chestburster from a human isn't really that big, smaller than a regular house cat, then molts into an adolescant form which is the one we see in the first movie. The process is very short actually as the first alien wiped out the crew of the Nostromo in less that a day. The alien in the third movie, birthed by a quadruped, doesn't have the ability to stand up on two legs easily. Then the predalien has predator mandibles and dreadlocks as well as a more predator shaped head. Generally those are much larger as well, though not as large as a praetorian.

"How can you put together two iconic sci-fi creatures and make such a ho-hum movie"? By aiming for a PG-13 rating. It was inevitable that the crossover of two R-rated creature-features would be compromised weaksauce as soon as it was saddled with that PG-13 rating. And the "unrated" cut doesn't fix much, either, because the whole film was shot with that PG-13 rating in mind so there was virtually no "harder" material to actually put back in.

Weirdest thing about this movie is that there's already an excellent, 'Aliens vs Predator' story from Dark Horse comics that they could have simply adapted to the silver screen instead of this mess they created instead.

From experience i can tell you that "This must be X" - "Are you stupid, it never could be X" is like, real life scientist standard dialogue when discussing new things. Especially if you have people crosspollinating from different fields. What it comes down to at the end of the day is this: If none of you have an idea what's happening, you start educated guesses. In a room full of smart people chances are good though someone is ahead of you in the field where you could just guess and immediately shuts you down so you can postulate the next idea. It's why smart people like hanging together. I admit it's tedious and boring and obnoxious from the outside and doesn't make for good movie material. It is, however, very much on point x3

Actually, Xenomorphs DO utilize the dna of their host's species when they infect a creature. The Dog Alien in Alien 3 had a different skeletal structure than a typical human infecting one.

Clan leader attacks with wipping dreadlocks

Gonna sin you one. Looking at a dead, curled in a ball, fossilized facehugger would most definitely be associated with a scorpion...the only thing a rational man would relate to. He's seen it for 5 seconds and would have no way of knowing that tail doesn't flip over its back.
Indeed, and since it has eight legs (scorpions are arachnids for readers who doesn't know) the number of legs combined with the tail makes it a very well placed guess.
Having the humans go down first was the point. Humans go down, get infected -- Xeno's then waiting when Preds go in. Hello.

The Mayan & Aztec calendars are both completely different from the Catholic calendar, and thus require a total recalculation of year/month/day. The Aliens themselves would have just been told the combination before arriving.
There actually is a Cube Remake in the works! Expected to be released at some point this year
Give proof now
@@yaboydolphin its currently on hold. Lionsgate is developing it.
Penguins are named after Alexander von Humboldt who was far from boring. Please check him out if you are intetested in the foundation of biogeography. He was an explorer and naturalist among other things.
[Edit: Your hot take on Janeway is well a hot take. I'd say the true villian is coffee and the lack of it 😉🖖]
Neeeeeeeeeeeeerd
Damn replicator rations causing mass genocide!
In his comment about this Penguin he stated “Artic” instead of the proper location that this movie is set in “Antarctic”.
17:32 It is the displacement of air that makes that large "sonic boom" Air does not compress, so when something like an explosion happens it pushes the air away from it at incredible speed. Like in the first Alien movie, they had the tracker that looked for air displacement. Any object displaces air, it is why you can create wind by fanning your hand, or why aircraft work.
19:33 I thought that was way funnier than i should have.
10:45 Yes scream at the very obviously hostile creature instead of shooting at it first! That'll work!
Sin N13 : Wrong, he was taking pictures of him self =)
Sin N14 : Same as before
Sin N78 : The predator does not leave Weyland cuz he is sick and is goin to die anyway, he leave him cuz he is not a worthy prey ( Yautja Honor Code)("Take only the worthy prey. Dishonor is worse than death")
Sin N129 : The chesbuster do pick something from the host dna
When I saw the trailer for Alien vs Predator with Sanaa Lathan in the middle I screamed “Take my money!!!!!”
Sheep. Baa baa.
Do you also wear a mask showering? I bet you doooooo 🙈🙈🙈
Sanaa Lathan is so underrated... and gorgeous
@@mahoganymuffin2628 She deserved better than this crappy script. They always try to get the next Ellen Ripley when what we need is new characters that are unique. Reiko Aylesworth in AVPR as well.

Captain janeway has always followed the prime directive: no one else matters but me
