I just love how the Predator is like, "Ah good, a competent human, I heard those can happen sometimes."

In the books she actually joins the Predator society and goes with them and stays for 40 years. Their tech actually extended her life by 300 years. Her final kill count (via melee) of her solo hunts of Xenomorphs is 23 Queens and 5.6 thousand Drones. Note Predator culture doesn't count Plasma Caster and bomb kills.

I love how the Pred is like "Girl, I'm gonna arm you up, cause I am not doing all this by myself".

I will die defending the idea that Alien Vs Predator was a perfect concept. One is a fully animalistic wild creature with zero idea of morality, just wants to live and spread, and is the deadliest beast in the universe. The other is a very advanced interplanetary species that kills for fun and seeks out the toughest challenges just to display dominance and pride itself as the greatest warrior. They fit so well!

She also gained his respect when she mercy killed Sebastian. You can see in the scene how the Predator stepped back & was watching what she’s gonna do in that situation. Like it was waiting for her to do what NEEDS to be done! Also a warrior-like trait

Lance Henriksen and Bill Paxton, the only 2 people to have been killed by an Alien, Predator and a Terminator!

Don't forget about "Predators" that came out in 2010 with Adrien Brody.

There's an unexpected deleted scene, Where the predator (I kid you not) pranks (PRANKS!🤣) Lex before arming her. It just sticks the dead Xenomorph with it's weapon, making the alien's mouth shoot out and jumpscare her. It even gauge's her reaction (seemingly amused) to which she just scoffs and says "ha ha..."

Sa’naa Lathan was a great protagonist. She was smart, competent and didn’t fold under pressure. Her being able to visually communicate with the Predator was a great touch as well.

"I would not want to see that combination" Me: stares at the camera like im in the office

Blade's mom really did some legwork in this one.

"I want to be a predator's sidekick. That sounds awesome!" Not a sentence you would normally want to hear 😂

So, nobody mentioning Charles Bishop Weyland is Bishop aka Lance Henrikson?

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE FACT THAT AT 29:49 YOU CALL OUT THE SEQUEL.. "AHHH I WANNA SEE THAT ABOMINATION" HAHAHA

This pyramid serves the Yautja as a way to prove themselves. It is an initiation. They have imprisoned a queen down there who ensures a supply of Xenos. The humans, as pretty much always, were completely out of place. As they enter the complex, you can see one of the floor plates sinking. This activates the pyramid's protocol. However, it should actually be a Predator that starts the said protocol. The Yautja enter the complex and make their way through the environment, which regularly changes as the walls move, to get to their shoulder weapons first. Here, too, it is the humans who trigger this next step, without knowing what they are doing. The moment the weapons are removed from their container, the eggs in the sacrificial chamber rise up, ready for the games to begin. The humans have simply messed up the protocol. Not a big surprise in itself. We are good at this kind of thing.

I think some people miss the point of what is actually happening story wise. The Predators that get sent down, are essentially like young adults/teenagers. This Xenomorph hunt is this particular sect of Predators right of passage to become a full fledged Predator Warrior/Hunter. The way it was supposed to work was get the Humans there to be hosts for the face huggers. While the Young Predators go and collect their Shoulder Fired Cannons...as soon as they pickup the cannons that's when the hunt was supposed to begin by raising the eggs into the sacrifice chamber and impregnating the humans. However the humans screwed it up for them, by collecting the shoulder cannons first, and starting the hunt/process too early, before the Predators were ready. Which is why you see the Predators sorta freak out a bit at the entrance to the pyramid, when their scanner shows them that the Humans picked up the cannons and started the process...when they see that, is when they sprint inside to try to find the cannons before the Xenomorphs hatch. It's why they attack the Humans first that were carrying the cannons. The only reason they attacked the humans top side (drill team), is cause they started shooting first and attacking the Predators. They would've left them alone otherwise. Same for the Humans inside the Pyramid, if they didn't take their cannons, they would've been left alone.

This movie was 100% fan service, and it delivered in amazing ways!

I love how the Predator eventually saw and marked her as an ally, and the other Predators acknowledged that as well. I just wouldn't wanna feel the sting of that acid blood marking me.

The tag line for this movie was "Whoever wins... we lose."😂 I'm gonna say, I'm rooting for the predators because they don't kill everyone... at least I hope not.😮

in the theatres, when the predator came with his spear in the queen's head, the audience cheered. It was awesome.

I have NEVER been so excited for a RU-vid video in my life. You guys are by far my favourite RU-vidrs. You’ve opened my eyes to the beauty of films and as a musician, I love your passion behind soundtracks. Keep doing what you do ❤️

I loved the tag line from the original movie poster for this film: “Whoever wins, we lose” I really don’t care what folks say about “canon” or not…this flick was one helluva good time! It’s great to see you both thought the same. What a FUN reaction to watch!!!!

That predator who gives her one of their weapons is an Elder Predator or Elder Yautja. Yautja is the name of Predators' species

My biggest complaint with this movie is how quickly and easily the Predators were taken out. The sequel Requiem has one of my favorite predators. He takes on the rising queen and her hive absolutely solo. They credit him as Wolf and he is a total badass.

41:07 - Xenomorphs can function in vacuum of space. I doubt you can drown a Queen. But what will kill her is pressure. Squeeze her like Terminator 1 ending.

42:55 All Xenomorphs are hybrids. They all take DNA from their host. So in the expanded universe, there are many different versions of Xenomorph depending on what species they inpregnate. This becomes more clear if you guys ever watch Prometheus

I know you guys are playing Alien Isolation, but I would highly recommend Aliens vs Predator, the 2010 videogame. I love that game so much and it really deserves more recognition

It’s aged surprisingly well. People were kinda hard on it when it first came out.

I can't remember if it's confirmed or just a theory but the Xenomorph "Grid" (the one with the green grid on it's skin) is believed to be the chestburster from Adele Rousseau, the blonde badass girl that (I think everyone) liked. Hence why Grid is a badass. When Facehuggers plant the embryos in their prey the embryo actually absorbs some of it's prays DNA which is why every Xenomorph has it's own personality and why they look differently depending on what species the chestburster bursts from. Xenomorphs were designed to essentially be the universes ideal predator. The absolute of killing machines. And a part of that perfection is their ability to evolve the more they Facehugger different species.

The scene when the baby alien burst out the guys chest, and the predator catches it and breaks it's neck is badass. I enjoyed the sequel. Great reaction both of you

8:24 "I’d rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it" [Samwise Gamgee liked that]

I could listen to Lance Henriksen talk for hours, even if it was just nonsense, his voice is just that good.

Predators (2010) is a good film, it's worth checking out.

I'm glad to see that there's people who root for the Yautja (Predators). They are basically supposed to be the universe's prime hunters. Their technology makes them a breed above the rest, and their culture teaches them that there is no room for error. You either sink or you swim in this jungle.

"Lex" is in Blade (1998), which you should react to if you haven't seen already.

I honestly think this movie is underrated. Seeing these two iconic monsters fight was great!! I feel like they might be building up to a new AVP movie with the resurgence of Alien and Predator. That would be awesome!

Random. But the actor who plays Hugh Hammer (The Blacksmith) in house of dragons is in this movie! He’s the one who stays on the surface while the others descend.

25:50 really shows just how strong a Zenomorph is when we know how massive a predator is and it’s just lifting it up and throwing it away so casually

Such an underrated movie tbh. This was my childhood. Having debates about whether alien or predator was cooler. Playing Halo then watching this movie with the homies in the neighborhood. Man oh man. Good times.

This movie is defenitely more on the cheesy side, but if you watch it more times and more closely, and you can see all kinds of awesome quirks! Like Scar (main Predator) being the smallest, and always flexing his fingers. The Xenomorph with the criss cross pattern on it's head (curtesy of killing the buff Predator) is the smartest and strongest of all the Xenos shown. It's also alluded that it was born from the blond woman, who was shown to be equally strong and capable. Like host, like Xeno. An allusion that the Xenos really "inherit" some of their host's traits.

The director's cut does have a scene that takes in the whaling station which explains its abandonment. Does this mean you two will also be watching AvP: Requiem? Lex is not the first human to team up with a Yautja (Predator). In a series by Dark Horse Comics, the character of Machiko Noguchi fought alongside a Yautja, Broken Tusk, and actually accepted into his clan. She traveled with them and hunted with them, until she chose to leave the clan as she would not take part in a hunt for other humans. Also, it's funny you called the Predalien an abomination. As that is execatly what the Yautja call them, and it is a cultural imperative amongst all clans that they be exterminated on sight.

imagine how bad ass it would be to become an honorary predator.

Duuuude! This one came out when I was in high school and I got to see it with my friends! Overall I love it, and it fits well in the world's of Alien and Predator. When it comes to Weyland, my head canon is that this Weyland is the original CEO and founder, the one from Alien³, is a future descendant and became the man responsible for the android models of which Bishop was made. But that's just me. I like his character in this one, he seems more like he genuinely wants to explore and discover, not just make money. It makes sense that after his death, the company would move away from his original morals, so to speak. Much love from Portland, OR!❤❤❤

I think it was an excellent touch by AVP to have Charles "Bishop" Weyland be Lance Henrickson. This just adds a perfect cherry on top of the sundae.

With the way PREY and Alien Romulus are goin, we gotta get an AVP REBOOT!!!!!! Soooon 🙏 Favorite of the aliens and predators movies. I'm a Huge Predator fan and to seem them actually move, fighting, doge, etc was freaking mind blowing. Wasn't expecting a full on fight sequence just a lot of fast cuts and spins and what not. They definitely gave the fans something to drool over. The designs, the practical effects, the cloaking devices.

In the extended edition, it shows the crew of the whaling station get wiped out by Predators 100 years before all this happens. Such a cool scene that should've made the theatrical version.

To those who may not know the old predator at the end was at the rank of an Ancient. This is a rank of a predator who managed to reach 1000 years of age. They can often be mistaken for a regular elder rank. And the ancients are more like advisors rather than being the leader of their specific clan

Me if I survived this entire ordeal "You wanna know how I got this scar?"

This film is one of my most favorite “comfort food”; something I can watch multiple times for pure enjoyment along with the Blade films, The Mummy, Tucker and Dale vs Evil, Underworld and Van Helsing just to name a few 😎

Well the sequel has one of the most badass predator of all time Wolf(the predator). Although people don't like the sequel that much but he carried the whole movie for me

You guys are amazing for watching this the week leading up Romulus! I grew up on this movie and it’ll always have a place in my heart because it’s what gave me the courage to go back and finish Alien. Fast forward 20 years and now I couldn’t be a bigger fan. As far as the sequel lol it’s funny that you say you want to “see” the Predalien. Best of luck!

"If it bleeds...the acid can hurt you" You were so close!

Aliens vs. Predator Requiem (2007), it's not a very good sequence, but it's interesting because it has Aliens attacking a City!

I just now realized that's the second time I've watched Colin Salmon getting diced like vegetables. Here with the razor net and in Resident Evil with the laser grid.

I just put it together that Lance Henriksen is the voice of Admiral Hackett in Mass Effect (lol I never watch video game credits). His delivery in this movie is a lot like that.

The concept for this movie came from Predator 2, when the hero was on the Predator ship. On the wall, you can see all these skulls, and one of them is a xenomorph skull.

15:13 Mommy is awake and she is not happy. I loved this movie to watch 2 of the scariest badasses go head to head in a fight was awesome. Also the fight with the Queen at the end the Elder and other Predators were watching before showing themselves to her. For the Elder Predator handing her a weapon was him saying you earn out respect.

It’s a real shame that a lot of the characters introduced get killed off way too quick. And the sad part was that none of them were badly written. They just lacked depth, but they had some character and charm.

Please don't miss out on Alien 4 Resurrection, it's one of my favourites!

42:12 "how do you go back to your regular life after this" well funny story, in the source material, she doesn’t! Machiko Noguchi, I think the character is named, joins another hunting party a year or two after being marked by her erstwhile mentor.

"i want to be a predators sidekick" Chris hansen in the back like "go on...."

I don't care what anyone says, I love this movie. Its such a fun ride filled with fan service and I'm all for it. You summed it up perfectly. Is it going to win an oscar? No. Is it awesome? Yes. Its such a fun movie.

AVP 2 has the Predalien. It's a Queen. Did you two catch the fact that the abandoned outpost was abandoned 100 years before? The population of the abandoned outpost fueled the last hunt. Every 100 years.

31:39 You see all those thousands of xenomorphs? Remember that each of them came out of one human. Just so, so much human sacrifice.

15:30: Yeah. In the comics, Predators would keep captive Alien queens on their ships, have them lay eggs, then send the eggs in drone ships to planets to infest local life forms to breed xenomorphs to hunt. The main conflict in the original AvP comic came about because the Predators screen the eggs to keep "royal facehuggers" from entering the mix, but the Queen, no fan of watching her eggs get burned in front of her, pushes the screening drone off course, so one drone ship that shouldn't have a royal facehugger aboard does. And this ship happens to be going to the planet Ryushi, where the Predators have hunted before, but humans have set up a colony since the last time they were there. These two coincidences snowball into an unmitigated disaster. That's also one of the main flaws of this film, the executive-mandated modern Earth setting. The whole point of the Alien films had been to keep the Alien from getting back to Earth, Ripley even gave her life in Alien 3 to keep the Company from taking it back. No. . . no, there's been an Alien Queen on Earth for thousands of years, everything's fine. And the modern day setting really makes no sense, since the main reason to do that would be to save money on sets, props, and costumes. Well, they still had to build this whole arctic pyramid set, it could have been set on an ice world in the future almost as easily. Some tweaks to existing clothes and props, probably not much more than they had to do to fit them to the actors and make them safe for filming, and you could have set it in the future away from Earth and the budget probably wouldn't change much. 28:44: "He's like 'I gave you a chance, man'." Was it that, or was it "Oh, you wish an honorable death? Very well." 29:43: "Oh, I do NOT want to know what that combination would look like!" 😁 42:26: That's another element that came straight from the original comic. The Predator elder, Broken Tusk, was injured partway through, left for dead by the other Predators, and because a human was at fault and their ship got blown up in the process, declared open season on ALL humans, armed or unarmed, old or young. The humans found Broken Tusk and healed him, and when the Predators and Aliens start duking it out in the middle of the colony, Broken Tusk realizes what the other Predators have been up to in his absence, and washes his hands of them. Instead, he teams up with colony administrator Machiko Noguchi, and the two lead a charge to wipe out Ryushi's Alien infestation. With his dying breaths, Broken Tusk marks Machiko as a Blooded hunter. 55:42: Read the original "Aliens Vs. Predator" comic by Dark Horse. Hands down, the BEST AvP story ever told, with solid themes and excellent mood that really makes it feel like these two fit together perfectly, and always have.

I'm going to copy a comment from a video of the final scene that I found very interesting: "Fun fact: that Ancient Predator right there? To get to that position, he had to kill at least 3 xenomorph queens and bring back their skulls. Besides clearing a hive of 300 xenomorphs by himself. I got MAD respect for him."

You guys and popcorn in bed are genuinely my favorite movie reaction channels because yalls knowledge with theirs is such a contrast that it gives 2 unique perspectives

To those who don't know, this was loosely adapted from the comics and videogames of the same name. The team up at the end is taken from the comics. This film favors the Xenomorphs, while the sequel favors the predator. This has the same director as the first Mortal Kombat and Resident Evil films. The predators in this are named "Celtic", "Chopper" and "Scar". The "abomination" you're referring to is called a "predalien", which is featured in the videogames

Watching from Germany here, ive followed reaction channels for years and really enjoy your videos, you really immerse yourselves in the movies and this is what we want to see 😊

We get so much more fun crossover movies these days which people love...and that makes this movie ahead of it's time.

Even if this movie is hated, I really like watching this for fights between Alien and Predator 😁. And fun fact: the story about the pyramid is based on a theory from Erich von Däniken believing early civilisations constructed pyramids with the help of aliens 🤔. This is enjoyable… until the sequel 😑

Fun fact these 3 predators Were Brothers, names Scar + Celtic and Chooper ... The last Predator was Scar the leader and older brother this was their first Initiantion hunting because they were young 100 years old i belive (18 years old in human age ) ... If you ask why they are fighting " Predators 2010 " movie explains alot...

Oh if you thought this was darkly lit, just wait for AvP: Requiem 😅

Just FYI, In the first several minutes when Waylan is in his office on the boat, in the movie Waylan uses a pen to tap between the fingers of his hand. This is an easter egg going to the 2nd Aliens movie when he played Bishop the android and did the knife trick on the marine Hudson.

They did the inevitable split of characters pretty smartly in this movie. Instead of the people being dumb as shit, the pyramid was designed to force a split. Also, no wonder Blade's mom is a badass XD

The movie that many were waiting at the time. Be it because of the comics, the games (the beat'em up for starter but the first FPS games were awesome too) or simply because there was a Xenomorph skull among the predator trophy in Predator 2, every fan waited for it, and quite frankly, the movie delivered on that front. Sure the movie is B-tier at best, but we got what we wanted.

Hoping you guys will dive into the Riddick Trilogy soon 🎉

This was a hugely anticipated movie at it's time, not just because of the 2 legendary "creatures" meeting but also because of the 1999 1st person shooter game, "Aliens Vs. Predator", which was highly popular (at least in my own circles). I remember playing that game with my friends for hours and hours, making memories that we still talk about to this day. When we heard about the movie, EVERYONE I knew was going to see it.

Xenomorphs for life! If a Yautja can take on a xeno without its tech, I'd respect 'em more. ;) But no seriously, fun movie.

Can't wait for you two to watch the sequel. The carnage and violence and all-around coolness did both franchises justice.

25:27 - And the same thing in Anderson's previous movie - Resident Evil, to the same actor...

I love how they showed the xenomorph skull in the 2nd predator movie when they battled in spaceship and then they decided to do an avp movie. Love it!!!!

You guys should watch Moonfall(2022) next. Just like you said, it won’t win an Oscar but I found it highly entertaining with action from start to finish.

Fun fact, this is before Weyland merged with Yutani that we saw in Aliens. All this is a prequel to those movies .

Please dont forget Alien Resurrection to complete the OG saga. Is a very underrated film.

There's a deleted scene during the predator making the spear and shield for Lex where he stabs it in its head ejecting the Xenomorphs second mouth. Lex jumps, and the predator has a laugh.

I love this. Action, horror, and in the end a buddy cop movie! 😂😂❤ This being 20 years old is crazy!

Its crazy that this movie is 20 years old already!!!!

You guys should definitely "watch" Alien VS. Predator: Reqiuem and I put watch in quotations there because you genuinely cant see half the movie

The creator of the original Predator VS Alien graphic novel intended to only make the one issue. The popularity of the concept changed his intentions.

Predators are sentient, Aliens are primal.

One of my favourite movies, cause both aliens and predators present

This movie has its shortcomings, but dammit, it also has quite a few extremely fun moments! I do prefer the videogames, though.

19:49 That was an ultimate "oh sh*t!! WTF!?!" moment. The way the pyramid works is that you had the six or so willing human sacrifices in the birthing chamber ready to be impregnated. The three essentially teen-age Predators enter the pyramid in this Rite of Passage, basically being "blooded". The trip plate in the entrance wakes the queen xenomorph and starts the birthing process. When the three candidates enter the main chamber and retrieve their shoulder cannons, that triggers the pyramid and the game begins - the three of them against up to six xenomorphs in an ever changing maze. The fly in the ointment was that there were uninvited humans that got to the shoulder cannons first and triggered the pyramid prematurely. The reason why the first two predators were taken out so quickly is because, apart from being young and somewhat inexperienced, they're outgunned without their shoulder cannons. That was the moment you saw, them realizing that sh*t was going sideways when the humans took their weapons and they immediately ran to retrieve them before all hell broke loose.

Freddy vs. Jason was another long-awaited franchise crossover.

Bill Paxton and Lance Henriksen: The only 2 actors to have been killed by a Terminator, an Alien and a Predator.

To be fair, in my opinion, Alien 3 was a hiccup. I believe the franchise started to redeem itself with Alien 4. Fun fact about this movie: the writer was a fan that storyboarded the entire film and tried for six years to pitch the idea to the studio execs. Love the reactions! ✌️😎💕

Nothing can compete with the design of the Alien, Predator, and Terminator!!!

you should watch AVP 2 where the main Predator wolf has to destroy the Predalien
