So I picked it up from Best Buy today.

I couldn't see the backside of the DVD, because of some stupid booklet they included. So I get home, and it's f*****g rated PG-13. Still. f*****g A. I wanted an R rated version, FFS!

So I look around websites, and it sounds like f*****g 20th Century Fox isn't going to put out a Director's Cut. I'm so p****d. They totally f****d up this movie, which should have been R, just shy of 3 weeks before opening, it was. Sad

Not only that, the region 3 version will have 11 deleted scenes. Region 1(USA) only has 3.

I am so sad.

I still cannot believe I paid money to see that movie in a theatre. It sucked so hardcore...


can we say politically correct? the only survivor battling hardcore aliens and predators is a black female with some gay ass bone shield and a spear

I watched it on friday just looking for what it was called, Aliens fighting Predators. As long as an action movie can deliver over half the movie in fun to watch sequences I don't complain about the implications of what color the actress is who is playing a character in a fake world and how that relates to who gives a f**k.

Yeah that movie sucked I was looking at my watch thinking about other shit about halfway in
Best part about it was that it finally ended
One of the few movies I truly despise because it p****d all over two great franchises

i had hopes for the dvd , but saw this on imdb.com

Quote:
Around the time of the film's release, it was reported that at a special industry screening director Paul W.S. Anderson said that the film was always planned as an R-rated movie and shot that way, but only three weeks prior to release the studio changed that by severely cutting the film for a lower PG-13 rating. This account has been heavily disputed by original "AVP" writer Peter Briggs. It was later revealed that this "press-screening" never took place, and was only an internet rumor started by fans. Anderson has claimed in interviews that the film seen in theaters is the version he intended audiences to see.

Both Predator 2 and the last two Aliens sequels were awful... and you expected AvP to be good!?!

It's comic fanboi tripe. I didn't have to pay to see it, but I still regret the lost time. Sad

How can a movie involving Aliens and Predators be rated PG-13? What the f**k were they thinking? Make a cool rated R version and you'll make back the money you lost by not having it PG-13 by rentals/purchase.
