Say Cheese!


I just watched "Alien Vs. Predator" with my roommate tonight. Having never seen the movie, I put my money on Predator. Although Alien is tougher and breeds quickly, Predator is smart and has cool technology.

Anyway, I was right: Predator won.

I also said it was going to be a terrible movie, and I was right about that too. It was horrible, but fun to make fun of nonetheless.

I still can't figure out which is uglier.

You know, now that you mention uglisness factor... I really am seeing a resemblence to Helen Thomas in the Predator's picture.

The square, jowly face and tiny glaring eyes... We would just need to put a badly cut and died wig on him and he could sit in a White House press conference completely unnoticed.

I think Predator gets the sympathy vote from viewers like yourself because he does have certain humanoid characteristics(and remember how in the great first Predator movie with Arnie he wouldn't kill a woman? Intergalactic chivalry!), while Alien is completely inhuman, a kind of incarnated demon or succubus.

Helen Thomas... I think I can see the resemblance.

Ryan, I agree that I may have been a bit biased in favor of Predator because he does seem to have slightly more humanoid qualities than Alien, whose brain hasn't evolved much past the limbric system.

Also, respect to anyone who dares take on Arnie.
