Guys, what are your opinions on movies like War of the Worlds, 2012, that general stuff. I love em, Battle: Los Angeles was amazing IMO.

I must agree with you. All the movies you mentioned, I enjoyed. I also liked both Alien vs Predator movies, the new Predators movie, and DOOM as well.

Are the AvP movies sort of like end of the world stuff? Or is it more like Alien versus another monster?

AvP was Aliens Vs Predators, Nothing to do with a end of the world scenario, But it still falls under the category of Aliens.

I like mixes between both types of films, Armageddon, Independence Day, 2012, District 9, Aliens, Predator + a whole bunch more.

Alien movies are either really good, or really bad to me. Either the Alien will just be badass, and just roam around kicking ass, or they'll try to be badasses but the writers made them retarded. Like in Signs (I believe it was, I haven't actually seen the movie) were the Alien's only weakness is water, so then why did they come to a place that is 70% water?

The same goes for Doomsday movies. One of my favorite sort of doomsday movie is called The Road. It's just about this guy and his son trying to live in a post apocalyptic world after the guys wife killed herself. Not really doomsday, more of an emotional story, but good movie never-the-less.

On the subject of post-apocalyptic movies, The Book of Eli is a great movie, I didn't think I'd like it, but I was surprised. It gave me Fallout 3 vibes.

Me too. I went to see it in the theaters and I was like "I don't want to see a movie about some dude trying to protect the last copy of the bible." But it was a good movie. Good action, and Denzel is the shit.

Lol yeah it's really weird. And I wish there would be, but it didn't get good reviews so it probably won't <.<
