the aliens vs predator franchise hurt me pretty bad

only the first two alien movies were any good


i'm a purist when it comes to this



I think most people feel the same, its not about being a purist. The first time you experience something really new, different or exciting its the most fun you've had in a long time. It happens with movies, games, and other things in life.

The first time you experience something exciting will always be the best.... matching that moment is almost impossible. Once you throw "expectations" into the picture, you will be raising the bar way high. Once in a blue moon someone manages to actually outdo the first encounter (with movie or game), but that is pretty rare.

Once it becomes a "franchise", its all about merchandising and tends to go downhill.

It's a Sci-Fi film by Ridley Scott. It's going to kick ass.
