actually, this came first... originally published in, like 1987, i think. so there's a chance that this one won't be crap, since it has pretty good source material. but i doubt it...

Yeah, but this is actually the back story to alien ad predator. It kind of explains things. Well, as much as a comic book can. LOL.

they debate about Jaws vs Chucky there
here's the original script from aintitcool forum :
From: George Newman
Subject: JAWS vs Chucky
Comment: This could be great: Chucky is a stowaway on some kids' boat and he tries to kill them. They jump overboard and JAWS eats them before Chucky can get 'em. Chucky swears "smile you son of a bitch" and dives into the water for one final showdown.

I've waited for this movie ever since I read the DarkHorse comic way back when. Now its almost here, and it will probably suck the sweat off a donkey's balls.

At least Freddy Vs. Jason was funny. This one probably won't even have the laughs to go with it. It will just be plain bad.

Oh fuck! That's the evilest thing you've ever said!

Why has that moron got another job? Here in the UK "28 Days Later" and "Resident Evil" both opened at the same time. In a rare moment of box office sanity, "28 Days Later" smacked "Resident Evil" in the face, kicked it to the floor and farted on it's head.


Add to this disheartening news, Markks grim tidings that they're hoping for a more accesible certificate.

This scripts been around for years and people have been hoping for it get made. Suddenly, those dreams turn into something big, brown and steaming.


Why the fuck couldn't they have got someone competent to direct it?


AAARRRGGGHHH!

Have they not looked at the box office returns of "Robocop 3"?

I know let's take Paul Verhoven's blood/guts/guns/tits/fuck film and make it kiddie friendly! Let's make him fly & have him helping kids. pissed Fucking idiots!

Don't they realise most fucking kids see 18 cert films at an early age anyway? pissed

This is why the major studios fuck up so often. The final decison rests not with a director or a writer or even a producer (the producer's role in films is very overlooked) but instead it goes to some gimp with market statistics & trends!

They're trying to cash in on the fucking computer games!

Giving it to the man who made Event Horizon wall

GIMPS!

Which brings me to another point:-

If the Predator suits are shite as aintitcoolnews suggests and they do try and replace them with CGI, isn't that going to be shite too?

CGI is fine for drawing in distant backgrounds and I'll grant you Peter Jackson has done some good CGI in "The Frighteners" and "LOTR" but PJ is the notable exception. He gets away with CGI by doing it in the dark or making it very fast, etc.

CGI when used to create creatures is normaly complete SHITE! No matter what you spend. I'm thinking in particular of those Star Wars sequels and 'special' (as in school) editions of the original triology. Even expensive Lucasfilm CGI looks like a computer game.

How fucking bad would cheap, rushed, shoddy Predator CGI look?


AND SILVER ALIENS?

20th Century Fox can suck my

Well, not to defend the film, but I have my doubts about this "source" at Aint It Cool. Harry seems to have gotten a bit lax about who he gets his info from lately. He's had several reports from films that were obvious studio plants, as well as a couple that sound like fanboys trying to rile people up. Just take it with a grain of salt.
