Screenwriter Peter Briggs wrote an AvP screenplay based on the comic books in the early 90s and submitted it to 20th Century Fox who were cautious to move forward with the project. We then got a glimpse of an alien skull in the trophy room in Predator 2 in 1990 which fuelled rumours of a crossover film. DevelopmentĪliens vs Predator first appeared in comic book form in 1989 and was quite successful in the 90s.
They also find out that these aliens might be still alive somewhere in the pyramid ruins but unknown to them, there’s also another species of alien exploring there – the Predators. When the group reaches one of the pyramids in Antarctica, they discover human skeletons and the fossilized remains of Facehuggers and Chestbursters. These ruins are deep under the ice surface which were built by the Predators and were formed much earlier than the pyramid ruins in Egypt. The film is set in the present time at the beginning of the 21st century and a group of scientists and archaeologists travel to Antarctica and discover ancient pyramid ruins. If they survive the battle against the aliens, they earn their “warrior status”. So I started thinking about how they wouldn’t like this.The Predators use Earth for their rituals and every 1000 years, they drop five teenage predators off at a pyramid and they have to fight for their survival. I like to believe that the general audience (ie me) liked the movie, while the die-hard Alien and Predator fans hated it. didn’t see any of the Alien or Predator movies before I saw this, and maybe that’s why I like it. I just like this movie because I saw it when I was younger, and when you’re young, you just love any movie. Not the horror feast we all wanted but fun. The big disappointment for me in the movie was the lack of gore, fox did get it wrong to make it a pg13 even though they tried to substitute it with monster gore.Īll that being said this movie is a visual master-peace, the effects are top notch with very good fight scenes and creature effects with the best looking Alien Queen to hit the screens, The story is pretty cool and it gives more insight of the Predators, It takes a while for the introduction of the creatures but once the ball is rolling its none stop action.
Reading some of the harsh reviews I thought I would comment.
