While I'm thinking about it

Can't believe I'm saying this, but AvP:Requiem is entertaining in a shameless exploitation film way, and that's a good thing. It was almost, but not quite, Planet Terror-esque. It didn't pause to delight in ironic mischief the way PT did (not using ironic in a pejorative fashion here). We need more genre films willing to kill children and pregnant women.

Certainly better than the frustrating borefest of the first AvP. Sigh, it needed to be a Space Opera, an all or nothing war. Instead we got a watered down Chariot of the Gods Scenario (which sounds much cooler than it is.)
