The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

Perhaps that's why it's on Failblog.org :wink:

Are you referring to xenos being identified as Predators? Or the use of the WRONG word breech/breach?

breech–noun
1. the lower, rear part of the trunk of the body; buttocks.
2. the hinder or lower part of anything.
3. Ordnance . the rear part of the bore of a gun, especially the opening and associated mechanism that permits insertion of a projectile.

breach–noun
1. the act or a result of breaking; break or rupture.
2. an infraction or violation, as of a law, trust, faith, or promise.
3. a gap made in a wall, fortification, line of soldiers, etc.; rift; fissure.

So the erroneous title refers to ass-end of a Predator not as I believe is intended Aliens Breaking into somewhere! :lol:

Such as the lower levels of this poor guy's house?
And Xenos are predatory...

Predator - noun.
1. An animal that naturally preys on others.
2. A rapacious, exploitative person or group.
3. A creature that seeks to occupy all photographic oportunities and the attention of pretty girls, typically by scaring or hugging them, or a comination thereof.

:P :lol:

Trompe l'oeil actually. :P



Sorry, hate that pointless spelling of it. :wink:
I mean it's a French term, so why do people spell it different (but pronounce it the same) to how it is actually written in French?

Damn and after I Googled "Tramploi" and it offered me "Tromploi" instead I thought I'd got it right! :( TBH I've never seen it written before only heard Dave "The Duke" Dickinson waxing lyrical about it on Dickinsons Real Deal or one of that ilk hence my best shot at spelling above!

It's not you mate, but knowing how you are a stickler for accuracy, thought I'd best put you right. :wink:
