Yall are making me not want to watch AvPR but I must because it’s next up and I am a completionist

 

I promise you don't have to do this to yourself lol it's truly not worth it. Predalien is seriously such a rad idea and you literally can't see the fucking thing!

 

Love you to death and trust you fully but I’m just wired this way!! I will not be looking at that spoiler and I will be drinking heavily before starting it!

 

First things first: why is it now AlienS versus Predator? Why make one plural but not the other? I mean, it’s a weird thing to change any way since the first one being Alien versus Predator was still incorrect as there were many aliens and many predators? Unless it was a copyright thing for some reason I guess

 

idk I think the makers had probably fully checked out by then tho

 

Let it be known that I believed you all fully and i still had to see it with mine own eyes but yeah that was real bad. Second half felt like a compilation of Reaident Evil 2 cut scenes and I mean that in the worst way possible

 

I certainly hope you mean Resident Evil 2 the movie (terrible) and not Resident Evil 2 the game (all-time classic)

 

The game is one of my favorite things of all time and I actually did mean the game but like, in a negative way. Like in a way that should not ever be considered for a feature length film. So much of AVPR felt like video game cutscene material when it should’ve been actual storytelling. Idk i’m also a bit toasted

 

I'll allow it lol. those animated Resident Evil movies that are canon are basically 1.5 hour long cutscenes and they are a pretty rough watch lol

 

Yes! exactly haha. I own one of them too. Degeneration I think

 

Don’t worry I’m here to make a dumb joke like I thought I went blind when watching Requiem because I couldn’t see anything.

 

It was very dark in so much of the movie. Totally get what you were saying

 

I actually kinda want to rewatch it now. Lol It’s been like 17 years since I saw it. Pretty sure I rented it from blockbuster. Or was Netflix mailing DVDs already back then?

 

the third one does feature potentially my favourite fight in cinema history though:

 

So true on the second point. What a waste! Had the opportunity to do something truly unique and badass and they fumbled it so hard

 

Halfway through Prometheus now. Haven’t seen it since it came out. Still visually arresting

 

You haven’t seen AVP: Requiem either.

okay sorry, that’s my last one lol

 

Am I the only one working today?

 

This one made me lol

 

Prometheus (and Covenant) rule.

Doing Bubba Ho-Teo and Frankenhooker for our upcoming Summer CAMP episode of the podcast. Plus, Dr. Giggles on Joe Bob tonight.

Speaking of podcasts...probably the most fun we've had yet and the first one I feel comfortable sharing because we really fell into our groove. I also found out I was going to be a dad like three hours after recording a podcast about parental horrors in film lmao:

EHC 6: A Mother's & Father's Day Spooktacular

 

now I know what Aaron’s voice sounds like

cool

 

It sucks!

 

nah it’s a good voice

 

I was gonna say I haven't heard his voice, but then reminded I've listened to his podcast and reviews on IG. My brain is so fried.

 

Aaron needs to do horror audio books
