Predator 2 took a shitty movie, took the best bits of it and improved them, threw out the bad bits and put in new good bits. It'd be a good movie even if the Predator never showed up.
Aliens 2 took the first movie and just got rid of the thriller aspects and just put in more guns. It's the Micheal Bay approach to a sequel.
And Terminator 2 starred a douchebag kid who you wanted to die. And it completely destroyed the rules established in the original film.

Default I share this affliction- I only read wikipedia plot summaries
I have fairly strong suspicions that you don't even know how to watch a movie.

AvP 1...wasn't all that bad if you were expecting something like it.

AvP Requiem? I made the mistake of watching the Unrated version right after the first...it was Blair Witch 2 all over again!

If you watched the trailers, it sucked hard. If you didn't see any of the trailers, then it was an okay movie.

They digitally altered the trailers to make it look like there were far more Predators in the movie than there really were. I can't seem to find it right now, but there was a guy who wrote a long and angry review, demanding that the movie company owed him for falsely advertising the number of Predators in the movie and they cut him a check.

Oh i think i know what you're talking about... i remember some noise about that trailer.

I really think they just kept missing the point after Predator 2 y'know? "MOAR GUNZ" "MOAR PRAHDATURS"... you do that and it's not predator any more, it's just dudes. Space dudes fighting earth dudes. That's not cool...

A single intergalatic badass that hunts the most dangerous games and even handicaps himself in order to make it "fair" while truly hunting for prey? That's awesome...

I would just like to take his moment to address a certain issue, namely, the idea that Predators are "honourable" and "handicap" themselves. They dont. In the first film, the Pred spends the entire movie in stealth mode blasting people. He shoots down a chopper that doesn't know he's there, his first on-screen kill he stabs a guy in the back who doesn't know he's there, 2 minutes later he shoots another guy in the back who doesn't know he's there. His last kill is even against an unnarmed, injured man who didn't have a chance to fight back.

The only point where he loses his tech is after Arnie disables his stealth with explosives, and he still blasts apart a forest in a mindless pursuit of his target. He later removes his helmet and uses hand to hand on Arnie, but it's not out of honour, it's because he's pissed! He immediately proceeds to beat the ever loving shit out of his enemy and despite having a massive pair of blades on his arm that can finish him at pretty much any time, he doesn't outright kill him, he's toying with him. And then he gets all moody and blows himself up once he's defeated. Whiney whingebag.

The second pred is even worse, he doesn't even pretend to have a fair fight. The first 2 fights in the second film he hacks up rooms full of fully armed men with all of his advanced tech and basically just takes a different approach to combat. Where the first pred was a sniper/hunter, the 2nd guy is a berzerker/blood knight. The only "fair" fight he has is against the guy in the alley with the sword, but he still remains invisible. And the only people he doesn't kill are just those he doesn't consider prey, because it wouldn't be fun to kill them.

Basically Predators are no more honourable than human hunters on safari hiding in a bush with an overpowered rifle.
