Also, despite the films PG-13 rating, I think Alien Vs. Predator realized Giger's overtly sexual penis-within-a-vagina image of the facehuggers better than any of the Alien films have done.
Well, at least there're some things to look forward to. Although you've done an admirable job of keeping my expectations low, so I ought to have a good time. Why can't there be more R movies? Why aren't adults allowed to have fun anymore?
By the way, I watched The Thing last night. You're right, it was pretty good. The creature effects were great and the film maker seemed to have a perfect sense of timing when it came to them popping out. My only complaints; no female characters (which is probably kind of immature of me), the obviously fake exposition machine that showed the alien cell attacking the dog cells, and I think Wilford Brimley went apeshit a little too quickly. But I love the whole atmosphere of distrust thing.
I rented it on DVD so, er, in case you didn't know . . . it's out on DVD. In widescreen with a feature commentary by John Carpenter and Kurt Russell (I haven't listened to it yet).
