Actually, there's an Alien vs Predator movie in the works.

ps; TYPING IN ALLCAPS MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE A f**kING MORON WHO CANT GET A POINT ACROSS WITHOUT WHINING AND b***hING.

I heard rumors abound about 2 different endings, 1 for each of them and depending on which theater you go to, it will differ.

Which will probably never see the light of day. Mixing icon genres from different companies might work in graphic nevels, but it doesn't seem to fly on the silver screen.

I have a feeling this is one of those where the trailer has all the good parts.  

I think both the F13 and the Nightmare franchises have a big role to play in why so many horror films suck these days, so I don't really care if this ever sees the light of day.  The invention of the horror movie franchise probably did more than anything else did to eliminate creativity and original ideas in American horror films, so I'm sorta rooting for this one to fail.

I wouldn't blame Freddy and Jason in particular. The reason so many horror movies suck is the same reason that most of today's sci-fi movies suck. Hardly anybody makes honest-to-goodness horror or sci-fi anymore.

The big studios want movies with wide appeal, so they make dramas and romantic comedies for the women, action movies for the men, raunchy comedies for the teenagers, and merchandisable cartoons for the kids. Once in a while, they'll slap a coat of sci-fi or horror on an action flick to try and please the rest of us, usually with a load of CGI.

Even slashers were ruined when too much teen drama got added to them, and they tried to be all hip and self-aware. Just have a bunch of young stereotypes getting picked off creatively, and try not to be too "wink wink, nudge nudge" with the humour. Is that too much to ask?

Really, it's been too long since I've seen anything like a Jason or Freddy flick for me to blame them for anything in the industry today.

TEMPER TEMPER LITTLE BOY.  JUST BECAUSE I HAVE A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW FROM YOU, DOESN'T MEAN YOU'VE GOT TO GET PERSONAL.  AS FOR TYPING IN ALL CAPS,  I LOST A HAND IN VIET NAM AND IT'S THE EASIEST WAY FOR ME TO TYPE.  NOW GO TO MOMMY AND GET YOUR DIAPER CHANGED.

Oh, Jesus.  There is no space in Vietnam for one, (As in, the word, anyway. It's a pretty large county), and secondly, hand or no hand, youre damn near incoherent.  Also, there's nothing wrong with having a different point of view--unfortunately, yours is based on idiocy and really, really lame insults.  Back up your opinion a little, and maybe we'll be a little more forgiving.  

Oh, also--Any internet porn addict will tell you that it's damn easy to type with only one hand.  Heck, I typed this entire post with just my left hand.  RIghty was..ah..busy.  Making casserole.  In the kitchen.

I'll shut up now.

Was it noodle casserole?

Heh, heh, . . . er, I'll sit down now. :-)
