    Movie: AVP 2: Aliens vs. Predator

    IGN FilmForce first reported the news that 20th Century Fox may have signed special effects artists-turned-directors Greg and Colin Strause (aka the Brothers Strause) to helm Alien vs. Predator 2 (aka "AVP2"). The brothers themselves have now confirmed the news at their official website.

    In addition to their award-winning work as music video and commercial directors, the Brothers Strause also run Hydraulx, which has provided special effects work for such Fox films as X-Men: The Last Stand, Fantastic Four and The Day After Tomorrow.

    I hope the series hasn't already been totally destroyed by the 1st film. At least they didn't get WS Anderson this time. He's already done enough damage to at least 2 major franchise.

    Hmm... Well, the good things is that it can't probably get any worse than the first one, if they do serious work at all. AVP was like balloon: It looked like a big thing, but there was nothing but empty air inside.

    I didn't hate the first film or anything, but it certainly wasn't anything great. I didn't think it was good either. It was just.. "meh". Hopefully a new director (I think?) will be able to turn it around and make it as it should be. I'm really, really starting to hate W.S. Anderson now.
    The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist.

    I never thought I'd be looking forward to AvP 2 after the craptastic first one.

    Power without perception is virtually useless!

    AvP Sequel Ventures to Two Planets!
    Source: Ryan Rotten, FangoriaSeptember 10, 2007

    This morning we received a phone call from an anonymous scooper who excitedly told us a juicy nugget about Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem.

    Says our source, the Strause brothers - who have already impressed the hell out of us with an action-packed trailer loaded with grue - will give fans a long-awaited look at the home world of the Predator species.

    So, we sat on this info for the afternoon weighing the validity of this information until Fangoria posted this story where co-director Greg Strause teases, "There's lots of stuff still unseen ・complete scenes that are not in the trailer," then, "A new world perhaps..."

    Sounds pretty legit. The Predator home planet was once the center of an abandoned Predator sequel cooked up by Robert Rodriguez.

    The most positive aspect of the trailer was that it had the proper everybody dies feeling an alien (and predator) movie should possess.

    Possibly the bloodiest trailer I have ever seen, I'm guessing it will be rated R which it should be. PG-13 is for pussy's

    There is no way they can make that PG-13 unless the trailer is filled with all the content they're going to cut out and the rest of the movie is toned way down.

    i hope it will be on par with Predator.
    Not that the movie was top notch, but it was enjoyable for the least.

    The Predator with glover was a let down to me.

    I've not seen AVP... so I'll wait for your comments on this second opus once it's out

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    I just got done watching the trailer, have to say the trailer itself is better than the first movie. Though my biggest problem with the first glimpse of this movie is it appears that nobody is going to live to see the end? I hate movies like that due to the fact half of the killings are filler and have no real purpose in the plot.
