I actually quite liked AVP. Plus, I've seen far worse movies that are considered 'masterpieces', and I believe a few actors and actress have even won Oscars for their performances in these movies. There is this movie by Nicole Kidman, called something like Dogville, and on her IMDB board people were listing her best movies - and practically every single one put Dogville on it. I hated that movie. I turned it off very quickly. Yet so many people loved it? Not sure if she won any awards for it... But she won an Oscar for The Hours. I didn't think the movie was that great - now while Nicole only won Best Actress, it was still nominated for Best Picture. I certainly didn't think it was that good. Of course, that's my opinion.
I dislike Alien. I actually fell asleep in it, and for me that doesn't happen often. I find it very difficult - no matter how boring - to fall asleep infront of a movie. Yet despite this people say 'AVP sucks - Alien rocked!' and things like that. While that's their opinion, I completely disagree with them. I also completely disagree with peoples statements of 'you have to be retarded to enjoy this movie.' Now, nobody said it here - but I've seen it said hundreds of times before on IMDB. Its like people can't respect other peoples opinions. I can completely understand why people didn't like AVP, yet I still liked it.
EDIT- Once again I missed an entire page...
