    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In an interview, director Paul W.S. Anderson said that Arnold Schwarzenegger offered to reprise his role as Dutch Schaefer (from Predator (1987)) at the end of this movie as a cameo, but only if he lost the election for California Governor. Schwarzenegger famously won the election, so he was unavailable to appear.
    • Goofs
      (at around 38 mins) Sebastian sets the clock on the sarcophagus to October 10, 2004 - 10/10/2004, because the Aztec calendar was supposedly based on 10's (the decimal system, erroneously called "metric" here). Yet, why would an Aztec civilization set a calendar to align with the Gregorian calendar, which is what our modern calendar is and wasn't developed until centuries later by the Romans? The Aztecs would not recognize what we call "October" as the 10th month.
    • Quotes

      Alexa 'Lex' Woods: [Rousseau is loading a pistol] Seven seasons on the ice and I've never seen a gun save someone's life.

      Adele Rousseau: I don't plan on using it.

      Alexa 'Lex' Woods: Then why bring it?

      Adele Rousseau: Same principle as a condom. I'd rather have one and not need it, than need it and not have one.

    • Crazy credits
      The end credits color and style (green computer text on black) are the same as the display of "Mother," the onboard computer in "Alien," right down to the underlining of important text (in this case, the department titles).
    • Alternate versions
      In November 2005 Fox released an 'Unrated Edition' which runs nearly 8 minutes longer than the theatrical version. It features deleted plot and character scenes. It also has some alternative footage and added CGI blood effects. The story is better told. The violence and gore are stronger than in the PG-13 theatrical version.

    Good monster action flick.
    I first saw in in a theatre in 2004. Revisited the 109 mins unrated version recently.

    This is the first film installment of the Alien vs. Predator franchise, bringing together the creatures of the Alien and Predator series. In this one, scientists are caught in the crossfire of an ancient battle between Aliens and Predators as they attempt to escape a bygone pyramid. The film is fast paced with tons of action, aided by top notch special effects n amazing set design. Thankfully it doesnt have any shaky cam stuff, no flickering lights n none if the scene is shot in dark light. We can make out what is going on. Compared to most films where too much darkness takes away the fun, this one doesn't have bad lighting. They have toned down the human body count n reduced the gory moments. Nonetheless, it is a good monster action flick. Gore wise, it is nowhere close to the original Predator.

    FAQ36

    • Why did Scar kill Quinn he was unarmed, isn't that dishonorable?
    • How did Lex shove her hand down into an alien's newly decapitated head and not lose it?
    • Why is it so critical to stop the Aliens? Even if they reach the surface, what are they going to do? Swim hundreds of miles in order to reach civilisation?
