So 10.5? That sounds like a lot.

Don't I know it.
Alien vs. Ninja was pretty damn good and I don't know why. It had hilarious choreography, though not really executed in perfect fashion, but at the same time just cool fucking non-silly choreography executed relatively better. The music choice always seems strange yet perfectly fitted. It made it feel like it was all on purpose. Nothing really felt conventional, so I guess that may be why I can't tell the reason I loved it. Kind of reminds me of watching Predator the first time without an overbearing sense of familiarity. And the scene with them speaking English, wtf?
How about a scene?

Well you can blame Brandywine productions for interfering with, and murdering the Alien sequels (excepting Aliens). It was quite the reverse, interference by the production team strangled the golden goose, despite the cult following Alien had engendered. That being said so many people have told me AVP requiem is awful that I haven't actually seen it.

IIRC AvP: Requiem is characterised by a remarkable lack of imagination coupled by a desire be scarier than the earlier movies.
"Aliens land in a small town, and then, uh, they...kill people?"
The end result is that I remember exactly one thing clearly* about it, after maybe two years since seeing it last. (Saw a bad rip the first time, which was missing the end, so had to see how it ended just in case it suddenly turned around and got good, only it was so shit up until the missing bit that I couldn't be arsed for a long time.)
*Spoiler: ShowThe maternity ward.
I don't remember the plot, what the predators did or what actors were in it.
It's basically a big blank, possibly involving humvees, guns, maybe sewers, some teenager getting bullied and...fireworks?

At some point hopefully someone will figure out that to actually care about what happens to a character they have to be a little more than a nondescript cardboard cutout with all the character development of simply having a name attached to it.

I watched The Wolfman movie that starred Benicio del Toro.It was a pretty well done homage to the old matinee stuff of the 50's-60's* until a truly God-awful third act which unnecessarily played to modern summer blockbuster sensibilities irretrievably ruined it.
Anthony Hopkins character should have been done in early as (except for the God-awful movie spoiling showdown) he was extraneous to the real story -that of a good if flawed man who is enable to escape his fate.
*In the right light /right angle del Toro even reminded me of Lon Chaney Jr.
