If they ever make one that is. Make the aliens more sneaky. Or at least make it into a game-mode. I kinda disliked how aliens in AvP2 spent more time in the air flying than actually running or sneaking. And I REALLY disliked how your name popped up the instant someone just happened to move the crosshair over you, thus rendering a perfectly good hidingspot useless. My idea on how I would like to play an Alien is sneaking around in a giant complex, stalking the marines, trying to outsmart them, hiding in a dark corner waiting for just the right moment and then anihilate the lot of them, or slowly but surely picking them of one by one. Not puncing and bouncing wildy trough the air limbs flailing wildly at every opportunity, dodging bullets and rockets, lacking grace. Yeah, that and built in wallhack-block.

That would kick ass :) I still want to see the game AvP2 remade with the Crysis-engine. That would kick ass :)

Man oh man, It would kick ass to see a movie based on the first AVP-comic, that one more or less nailed how it should go down. Yes, that I agree on.

Maybe I should've pointed out that my liking of this movie stands in respect to how little I expected of it. I was pleasantly surprised since it turned out to be a lot better than I expected. That doesn't mean it's a masterpiece, or even as good an AvP-movie as it should be. I'm still disappointed with why Hollywood keeps on crapping on this otherwise great concept. I still want to see a movie based on the first AvP-comic, the one that started it all. The classic Aliens/Predator movies will still kick this one any day of the week. Even the somewhat mediocre Predator 2 is far more in tune than this one. But, this one is definitely better than the first one from 2004. If that one was 15% of what an AvP-movie should be, then this one is closer to 45%. Everyones entitled to their own opinion.

However, I really disliked this movie except for that moment. I would not watch this movie again. One thing that I really think spoiled the entire movie was the "High-school-teens meet monsters"-feel. I would have kinda expected it from say buffy the vampire slayer or something but... well...
