I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I might be mixing up 3 and Resurrection. Was 3 the one with all the production problems? Was Resurrection the one with Winonna Ryder?

Very unfair to conflate these. AVPR is awful. AVP is well-made, well-written, well-cast, and tons of fun.

unfair? they are a part of a franchise, and those two more linked by being spin offs.

im only adding them because the Halloweenies Podcast did a recent series of episodes on all the movies and they talked bout both of them.

But i dont think about them at all.

It would be towards the bottom of my ranking, but I thought Resurrection was fun. It had its moments.

Resurrection has some nice atmosphere but Joss Whedon's terrible script ruins it

It does, but it also feels like the first episode on a tv show. Which makes sense, giving that Whedon was a tv star at the time. Ultimately feels like a lesser sequel and with that in mind i get to enjoy it more.
