In every movie The humans get screwed royally screwed by either some other human being an idiot or having some ulterior motive or something, doing something that gets other people killed(The Company in the first, stupid commander in the second, stupid warden in the third, haven't watched the fourth in years). Or there's some other stupid obstacle (Don't shoot, it's in front of the hull! If you hit the reactor you'll kill us all! Let them just rape us instead!).I feel that, realistically, a battalion of soldiers would wipe the floor with any one or two aliens. If an Alien were to, say, get into the white house, and it's security was actively aware of it's presence, the Alien would last at the most an hour.
The scene where the aliens are raping the national guard in AVP2 was such bullshit PIS. Realistically they would have had air support with thermal imaging, night vision, sonar, movement detectors, there would have been flood lights that would light up an entire three block radius like it was day light, each soldier would be at the least in two-man teams, one watching the front and the other the back, both of course armed with personal night vision visors. There is no way in hell that a ten foot long black serpent that leaves it's own trail of super hot saliva, would get anywhere near a soldier before getting blown in half, especially with the APC there (Which is also bullshit, why the **** would you get out of the heavily armored APC when you lose contact with the entire squad?).
No.. in the real world the aliens would have gotten ****ed up. How is an Alien any different then a lion or a tiger, the latter of which can leap 10 feet straight-up into the air 15 feet forward, and moves so silently that hunters have been known to hide in trees staking out Tiger A, only to turn to the left and see Tiger B, whome has been sitting on the same branch as them for hours and they just never noticed it? If being able to move fast and silently, and move and jump quickly is all that's nescesarry to beat a man with a gun Humans wouldn't be the dominant species on Earth, but we are because it is impossible for a creature using only claws and teeth to beat a human armed with a gun unless the human acts carelessly or stupidly. Hell, we (Humans) were killing the shit out of Tigers when all we had was a heavy rock and a ****ing burning branch. Where was the super sneaking ability and stealth and all the animal intelligence and sharp teeth then? They're ****ing endangered now.
But then again, it's a movie isn't it?
Of course, a well informed and outfitted marine unit should be able to destroy an Alien hive. Had the Marines in Aliens been able to get back to the dropship. Their artillery would have wiped out the hive in an instant. The scenario's in the Aliens movies never question the outcome of a war against humans and Aliens though. The scenario's always revolve a small number of people against an overbearing amount of Aliens in a confined area. Asking whether or not Humans could conquer Aliens in an all out war is a different question for a different thread. The question at hand is whether or not one man can survive an onslaught of Aliens. Taking the Aliens out of confined area's and minimizing their numbers will always be putting them at a disadvantage but lets not forget how just one alien is capable of systematically hunting and killing a dozen intelligent humans.
Also, you cannot compare the Xenomorphs to Tigers and Lions. Aliens have proven to be very intelligent. They are far more agile and deadly than any mammal found on planet Earth. They communicate using telepathy and work as a team. Granted, their sole purpose is to protect the hive and secure their existence but this doesn't mean that they cannot think for themselves and make intelligent decisions.

i was refering to siding with each other on one thread and getting personal in others. i've seen only seen couples do that because they are in a love/hate relationship. hence the expression "are you two married?" when talking about people who have a ambivalent relationship with someone.
Ahhhhhhh. Thats where youve been going wrong.
You percieve love/hate, where there is only indifference.
I'll cuss if Ive been cussed against.
And if someone agrees with me I cant help it.
You see things in terms of 'siding.'
I dont.
Thats your projection.
The only 'side' I worry about being on is the truth in whatever argument is at hand..
If some other poster who disagrees generally, agrees with me about a subject or not, fine.
You really seemed to be tight with RJ constantly round all the threads here, so I think I see where this is coming from here.
You are the one trying to get personal the whole time.
(Making unsolicited net zodiac readings and shit etc in the middle of vs threads...)
You too wanna carry on like you were before, fine.
But dont drag me into your little netlove jealousy thing.
Its weird.
Its unwarranted.
And where do you get off telling people who they should be arguing with anyways..?

Vasquez? The chick pilot of the dropship? Newt's mother? The other chick that wasnt Ripley in Alien?
😕
Oh well, you still havent explained how Punisher is meant to do anything but die in that scenario without a motion tracker.

This, as a pimp, made me look bad.
Seriously I dont care if you are or arent gay.
But Sada22 still loves you.
Anyways on topic, how does Frank survive without a motion tracker...?
'Erectile Dysfunction' was the reason I cited.
