The behind the scenes footage looks better than anything in the final release. The predalien looks so impressive now that I can actually see it! Whoever worked on that should rightfully hold a grudge.
I met Danny Glover in an airport once. In short I told him how much I appreciated his work, and over the course of the encounter he gave me 2 "bro-handshakes." Super pleasant guy.
"I don't often enjoy pointless gore and cruelty... But in this, I do. I love it!" - Nick Mason Re-Release this Blu-ray and slap that glowing endorsement on the case.
Mason’s impression of the frustrated predator dad never fails to make me laugh. “You bloody kids! I’ll give you something to have an alien hunt about I’ll tell ya that much!” If wolf just went around dad ranting at the aliens/predators it would make this movie 10x better
i feel like i remember in the comics they explain that predaliens are like extreme heresy and refuse to acknowledge their existence for some reason the angry dad idea is much better than that
I never knew I wanted an Alien V Predator film in the Style of "Are We There Yet" until now. Just an angry Predator step dad just losing his mind because of the kids and he's so mad he has to pull over in space and take a break to massacre people and Xenemorphs on earth
"Ted, Ted, can we take a left at Aldebaran and go hunt some xenomorphs?" "Young man, we are going to Earth to hunt humans and YOU WILL HAVE FUN!" "No I won't, humans are boring!" "So help me, if I didn't have to worry about explaining to your mother how your chest got exploded by a Predalien, I'd toss you into a xenomorph nest myself..." "I'm telling mom you said that!"
My take away from watching this film originally with Wolf going around was CSI: Predator. It cracked me up to think of a Predator going around, investigating crimes, pulling off sunglasses to the Who, then resolving each scene the same way by disintegrating everything.
2:55 I remember watching this as a teenager at the movie theater with my dad. Everyone in the theater cheered when the blonde girl died. My dad and I looked at each other and started laughing. I think maybe the crowd that night made this movie better 😂
Not to be that guy, but there’s a quick label of CGI when the Predator roars after he takes his mask off in the rain. That’s all a practical effect! He was on set roaring with that big mouth without the help of cgi!
"Hello, you have reached Yautja Prime. If your shoulder cannon has malfunctioned, please press one. If your cloaking device has shorted out, please press two. If a member of your group has been infected by a xenomorph and a Predalien has exploded out of them, please press three."
YES PLEASE. I have a weird affection for the Underworld movies, or at least the first one, which I saw when it came out. Among other things, I like that they're apocalyptically geeky ("We need to mix the vampire and werewolf bloodlines and inject ourselves with Derek Jacobi's blood and then shoot five million depleted phlebotinum bullets into this floor to make a door!") but also take themselves very seriously in a way which I find vaguely charming rather than just pathetic. They also represent an interesting and increasingly rare middle ground between big-budget blockbusters and super-cheap genre movies like Uwe Boll's stuff or indie horror.
I've never actually been able to watch the whole movie because it's so dark. Even in a pitch black rooms with the TV being the only thing that glows, it's damn near impossible
I remember seeing this as a kid, having fun, but thinking "why tf is everything so dark, I can't see shit" Glad I'm not the only one who had trouble with this Also, guess I gotta finish the hobbit movies now, never saw the third one
I loved this film when it came out. During a time where all horror movies and slasher movies were pg13 and soft R, this movie was a breath of fresh gory air
This is a MUCH easier film to watch on physical media. The black colors are calibrated... unlike that murky, low resolution mess that passes for shadows on streaming. Still not great, but noticeably improved.
I saw this in the theater and I loved it then and I still love it now! Yes it's too damn dark, but I have a good time watching it. It's one of the few movies that kills people left and right, and truly earned it's R rating!
As soon as Maso started doing the voice at 7:22, I knew the editors would cut to a clip of Broden. I don't know if Maso was intentionally doing a Broden impression or what but that was hilarious.
Saw (barely) this in the cinema, two notable crowd reactions were, when the woman gets impaled on the wall by the shuriken (big cheer) and when the woman says "The government doesn't lie to people!" (big laugh)
What you forgot to talk about, and may not have even realised, is that when the movie Star Wars, later retitled as "Star Wars: A New Hope", was in early production, its production title was actually "Blue Harvest".
Blue Harvest was the codename for Return of the Jedi, not the Original Star Wars, naturally that didn't have a codename as nobody knew what Star Wars was. But for ROTJ the codename was used as every California location charged extra when they heard the 3rd Star Wars was shooting there. So Blue Harvest (subtitled Horror from Beyond the Stars) was picked to sound like a low budget horror film, of which there were plenty in the early 80's.
@@Freshie207 There's been a running gag in caravan of garbage lately, during green trivia, where James drops in the erroneous blue harvest trivia bit, to intentionally annoy the kinds of people who annoyingly comment corrections for on their videos. I was annoyingly commenting a correction, that was itself incorrect, as an ironic nudge to that running gag. Then you corrected me, in earnest. Oof.
this is the first movie I saw from either of these franchises, I watched it when I was 8 years old, and I had horrible nightmares for weeks... I've been a fan ever since
@@RRRRRRP You too? I saw the beginning of Aliens (up to the point where Ripley hallucinates a chestburster coming out of her) on TV when I was pretty young and got traumatized. I think my grandparents put it on on the basis that it was a sci-fi movie.
@@KeithFraser82 I was around 6 or 7 when I watched a small amount of aliens with my dad although I only remember the scene where newt says the aliens come at night. He thought I was too young but my neighbors parents would rent him and I pretty much anything we wanted. We proceeded to watch all the alien series before I was 9. I was horrified that a face hugger was gonna be in my bedroom and slept with a pillow over half my face for a lot longer than I'll admit. As much as they scarred me, aliens and predators were the first things I ever attempted to draw. I dropped out of art school but while there I had a drawing teacher that was dope who immediately asked me if I was influenced heavily by H. R. Geiger's works and I had never made the connection of just how much these movies influenced me until that moment. It was shockingly obvious I just didn't see it
So the directors acknowledged how dark the picture is in a post on AvPG (an Alien and Predator fan forum) and the reason for it is... a post production error during colour correction. It happened late in the day and when the issue was raised with Fox they refused to pump any further money into the film to fix it (maybe it required recalling prints etc). It was promised to be fixed for the home video release but once more Fox just shrugged and released what they had. And thus this terrible film remains shrouded in impenetrable darkness.
I'm glad one of you liked this movie. After the blandness that was AVP, I thoroughly enjoyed the gruesome absurdity that Requiem is. Yes its silly, but it makes for a fantastic horror movie experience. When discussing my favorite slasher flicks this goes right up there with the best of the genre. Once you see a pregnant woman give birth to a batch of aliens you never forget that.
Hey Mr. Sunday Movies, any plans to finish the saw films? Ya bloody left me hangin. I need to see the various sawnanigans Mr. Donald Whalburger gets into.
I remember watching it as a kid and the part that always sticks with me is the part with the pregnant lady and especially the one where the face hugger attaches to the kid hunting
@@ThreadBomb I honestly think both Prometheus and Covenant are terrible. Prometheus is a more competently constructed film with better production values, visual effects, and budget. Undeniably. But I think both of the AVP movies are infinitely more watchable and entertaining than either of them.
I thought this was called Requiem because it killed both franchises for about a decade. I was hoping for a sequel after this, Aliens Vs the Human Centipede!
I rented this from blockbuster back in the day and I remember thinking something was wrong with the disk, because of how dark and shadowy everything is
so i happened upon your channel this morning - specifically this video - & jst wanted to show some respect as it's made me genuinely laugh out loud several times, & not once not have a smile on my face.. brilliant.. really looking forward to watching a bunch of your other videos now.. so sincerely thanks guys, you've improved my mood considerably..
Sorry, Maso. The fact that this movie reduces iconic sci-fi monsters to standard slasher tropes is why I dislike this movie. An ancient alien pyramid built for a game of death is better by definition.
OH MAN! I would LOVE to hear the lads discuss the entire "Death Race" series... Not just the Statham ones, like, the Stallone classic and the modern remake and all of them.
Fan fact: In the extended version, the Predator ship from the first movie gets into outer space (around Saturn I think), and then a smaller ship detaches from it. That ship goes back to Earth (probably to drop a Predator to hunt) but instead it crushes.
The "obviously this is the final girl" character getting offed swiftly and brutally is basically the only notable thing I remember from this movie (that i saw once in cinemas when it came out and never since so its been a while). Got quite a reaction in the crowd.
This was the first movie where something, the darkness, pulled me out to an extent that I wondered wtf went wrong in production while I was watching the movie.
I rewatched this film not long ago for some reason because I couldn’t remember it. I really enjoyed it so I’m with you Maso! It is very dark though. Enjoy the break lads!
i re-watched this movie like a month ago, and i spent the entire movie just looking at my own sad reflection on my screen. also did you guys also know that the original working production name for this movie was 'blue harvest'
Just noticed Ben and Laurence edited the wrong "weird handsome dwarf". Maso was referring to Kili, not Thorin. So props to Richard Armitage to be so handsome he confused the editors.
I like this movie, it's dark but I enjoyed the story idea more and the Predalien is awesome and using pregnant women to give birth to more aliens is a terrifying idea
One aspect that I LOVED about this film (sifting through a TON that sucked) is the score! I mean it walks the line of Predator from Silvestri and Horners Aliens -I mean you can not nor ever will top Predator and Aliens respective score's but this film does a very decent job at replicating the . . . . feeling if ya know what I mean and it does the best it can do and adds a bit of that "aliens/predator feeling to the film. The sound effects of the aliens ripped right from Aliens, its a switch seeing a Predator set up a kill box v.s Arnold/Glover -COOL! The trophy room shot - SICK! The fights and effects look amazing - too bad its too dark to see anything. Its not a horrible film...even a "bad" one . . but it could have been so much better! Cape Cod, MA
This movie might as well have been called The Darkness(Pitch Black was already taken) because it's that fucking dark you can't tell what the hell is happening most of the time.
Okay, so I feel like I’m the only one here who can explain a joke that Ben did in the edit. On the 2nd “WAIT WAIT WAIT” that James says at 0:48, I can only assume Ben has decided that it sounds like James is saying “Way”, so he’s put a picture of a “Give Way” sign, a bag of “Whey” protein…. And ME, Leslie WAI. Never in my life would I expect my face on a caravan of garbage video in THIS context. Ben, I salute you for this incredibly niche joke that only I would get. 🫡
I actually loved this movie, but I'm going to throw on caveats as to why 1) first experience with the alien franchise 2) I was at most 8 years old and a big halo fan at the time so anything with guns and aliens was my thing I think if I rewatched it now I would think it was terrible
@@torsion2 yeah, my dad burnt it on a disc while it was still in cinemas and it came out in 2007 so I would have been at most 8 when I first watched it
Can you guys please do Don Bluth films? He has a lot of great animations. He was ahead of his time & his work still holds up today. All dogs go to heaven, the secret of nimh, titan ae, the land before time, etc.
Shocked how supportive you were of this, which makes me want to re-watch it. Also shocked you didn’t mention the kid and the key hench-bro Keegan-Michael Key. Both hilarious and ridiculous, but in opposite ways.
I always liked this one way more than the first. It actually plays to the strengths of both factions (Predator with gadgets and what could charitably be described as tactics vs Alien with numbers and brute strength) and is Rated R for Radical violent scenes for no reason.
The original working title for this movie was "Light Harvest" because of the fact the cast and crew wanted to shatter every lightbulb on set.
Fun fact 👌
Bulb harvest?
But Big Lighting wanted to charge them extra for all the lights they had to break
Working titles are cool, I wonder what was the working title of other hits like, idk, star wars
Wouldn't that be bulb harvest?
The behind the scenes footage looks better than anything in the final release. The predalien looks so impressive now that I can actually see it! Whoever worked on that should rightfully hold a grudge.

I mean it walks the line of Predator from Silvestri and Horners Aliens -I mean you can not nor ever will top Predator and Aliens respective score's but this film does a very decent job at replicating the . . . . feeling if ya know what I mean and it does the best it can do and adds a bit of that "aliens/predator feeling to the film. The sound effects of the aliens ripped right from Aliens, its a switch seeing a Predator set up a kill box v.s Arnold/Glover -COOL! The trophy room shot - SICK! The fights and effects look amazing - too bad its too dark to see anything. Its not a horrible film...even a "bad" one . . but it could have been so much better! Cape Cod, MA
The opening track on the soundtrack is incredible
Thank you Ben for clipping TMG in this whether you meant to or not❤️
This movie might as well have been called The Darkness(Pitch Black was already taken) because it's that fucking dark you can't tell what the hell is happening most of the time.
But then people would have thought it was an adaptation of one of Image Comics' more conspicuously 90s titles...
@@KeithFraser82 Or a movie about the English rock band from the 2000s called The Darkness
That second reminder actually helped. Thanks!
I wish they would make a movie about the colonial marines going to the aliens homeworld
My mate really likes this movie. It’s something I’ve always thought was ridiculous. This video has not changed my opinion. Love the vid.
Okay, so I feel like I’m the only one here who can explain a joke that Ben did in the edit. On the 2nd “WAIT WAIT WAIT” that James says at 0:48, I can only assume Ben has decided that it sounds like James is saying “Way”, so he’s put a picture of a “Give Way” sign, a bag of “Whey” protein…. And ME, Leslie WAI. Never in my life would I expect my face on a caravan of garbage video in THIS context. Ben, I salute you for this incredibly niche joke that only I would get. 🫡
Mason's instant outrage over hearing they're watching the Hobbit movies was my favourite part
You and me Maso. I'm a fan of this film because how simple the setting is and how crazy fucking violent it gets.
Let's just pretend this sequel never existed. Seriously there's only one Alien vs Predator film.
I love these guys they make me bellow with laughter
Love this channel, you guys deserve a nice long break. See you guys in September!
I actually loved this movie, but I'm going to throw on caveats as to why
1) first experience with the alien franchise
2) I was at most 8 years old and a big halo fan at the time so anything with guns and aliens was my thing
I think if I rewatched it now I would think it was terrible
you watched this film when you were 8?
@@torsion2 yeah, my dad burnt it on a disc while it was still in cinemas and it came out in 2007 so I would have been at most 8 when I first watched it
@@georgedarby6642 any ptsd?
@@torsion2 what, no, I was a child not an idiot, I could tell the difference between movies and reality
ok then
Enjoying that maso is enjoying himself @ how much he enjoys AVPR.
Would love to see you tackle Prometheus and Alien: Covanent.
2 movies that have some of the dumbest characters in movie history.
They have, I think
Kudos to the editors, always putting these over the top!
I never understood why they only sent 1 predator like if you sent 2 pros like the one in the movie the problem would of been handled alot better
Can you guys please do Don Bluth films? He has a lot of great animations. He was ahead of his time & his work still holds up today. All dogs go to heaven, the secret of nimh, titan ae, the land before time, etc.
Just predicting that Alien Vs Predator Requiem for a dream is said In this video
Edit I’m back
Can’t tell if they didn’t say it or I just missed it
AVP:Requiem for a dream would have the bleakest ending in cinematic history
Shocked how supportive you were of this, which makes me want to re-watch it. Also shocked you didn’t mention the kid and the key hench-bro Keegan-Michael Key. Both hilarious and ridiculous, but in opposite ways.
I always liked this one way more than the first. It actually plays to the strengths of both factions (Predator with gadgets and what could charitably be described as tactics vs Alien with numbers and brute strength) and is Rated R for Radical violent scenes for no reason.
