    This week on the Everything Actioncast, whoever wins, we lose because we're talking about 2004's AVP: Alien vs. Predator, which came out 20 years ago this week. There's also a new Alien movie, Alien: Romulus, in theaters right now.Directed by schlockmeister Paul WS Anderson, AVP: Alien vs Predator pits the two intergalactic entities against each other in an Antarctic pyramid discovered by Weyland Industries. The company's head, Charles Weyland (Lance Henriksen) wants to claim the structure in his name as one last grand action before he dies from a terminal disease and he assembles a team that includes scientists, drillers and Alexa Woods (Sanaa Lathan), an expert guide in arctic environments. The group explores the pyramid but soon finds themselves caught between the Xenomorphs and the Predators, with the pyramid being a training ground for young Predator warriors to prove themselves or die in a rite of passage. Zach and Chris discuss how there was over a decade of hype for this battle from the comics and games, the lack of any interesting kills thanks to the PG-13 rating, how the Antarctic environment doesn't affect anything, how quickly most of the Predators die, and more.You can watch AVP: Alien vs Predator on Hulu.

    For the latest Everything Action commentary, Zach and Chris celebrate the 30th anniversary of the 1993 Disney version of The Three Musketeers with special guests Addam and Chris Ali. Starring Chris O'Donnell as d'Artagnan, the movie loosely follows the plot of the Alexandre Dumas novel but with more swashbuckling action and 90s power ballads. Kiefer Sutherland, Charlie Sheen and Oliver Platt are the titular Musketeers while Tim Curry devours scenery as Cardinal Richelieu and Rebecca De Mornay is the sultry spy Milady. While watching the movie, the guys discuss the color coordinated armies, the over the top horniness, the episodic nature of the movie, the wild shifts in tone and more. You can watch The Three Musketeers on Disney+ and sync it up with our commentary.You can find Adam at @addamthecomic on Twitter and Twitch and at theadman2315#2135 on Discord.
