‘The Predator’ Trades Horror For Humor With Mixed Results – ScreenHub Entertainment

Seeing the original Predator at 12 introduced me to a leaner, meaner kind of movie I hadn’t yet been exposed to. Times were different then.

Why ‘Aliens’ Didn’t Turn The Monster Into A Space Bug – ScreenHub Entertainment

Though considered a classic, James Cameron’s Aliens isn’t without its critics. A sequel to Alien, one of the most persistent criticisms of Cameron’s film was that it de-mystified the creature. Its approach is said to lack the personality of the original beast, dumbing it down to an unintelligent animal that more closely resembled an insect. While certainly an issue found in various comic book and … Continue reading Why ‘Aliens’ Didn’t Turn The Monster Into A Space Bug – ScreenHub Entertainment

However, many overlook some of the film’s more subtle underpinnings.

Ridley Scott’s ‘Alien’ Problem – ScreenHub Entertainment

Ridley Scott’s Alien prequels have attracted much controversy. Some have praised them as fresh and innovative, while others have criticized them as unrecognizable from the original classic.
