Directors Talk 'Aliens vs Predator: Requiem'


For people who absolutely hated the last 'Aliens vs Predator' movie (including myself), there might be good news coming from an interview with the directors of the sequel 'Aliens vs Predator: Requiem'. Colin and Greg Strause even take a few shots at the last movie that disappointed fans. But I must warn you now, there are spoilers in this, so if you don't want to know anything about the movie stop now:

"We really have to prove to the fans," added his brother Colin, "that this movie's gonna be very different from the last one."

"We wanted to [go R-rated] with it," added Colin, who not only wears the same sunglasses as his 1-year-older brother, but even orders his burger the same way. "I mean, we chest-burst a little kid!"

"Yeah, he dies," Greg confirmed of the ill-fated child. "Onscreen, and very painfully. It's pretty f---ed up, but breaking some of the rules is a good thing here."

Given the go-ahead to make their hard-R flick, the Brothers Strause are steering clear of the PG-13 traps that rendered their predecessor so despised that an "AVP" podcast recently declared, "The only thing [director] Paul [W.S.] Anderson did correctly was bring people closer together in their community hatred of him."

Well I'm a little more hopeful about this movie now.
We shall see.
