The movies were scripts first, if you want to get technical and so were a type of novel. Sorry, but you seme to be using nitpicking when you want to and not at other times. And the creators of those original scripts and movies went on to lay the foundation of the novels. You seem to think that aliens and predator were just pulled out of someone's but and filmed without any writing going into them. Also, read the script for predator 2, have you? The original one? Reread that scene at the end.I am not sure what your point is here, I have already said the movie, as commented on by someone else, sounds interesting if it is near future. You seem to think that movie makers have no reason to respect what came before them. That's like syaing it's ok to make romeo and juliet into a slasher horror film. It was a play first (ie script) and so it doesn't matter what you do with it. IF that is how you feel ok, just unterstand that not everyone is like that. You will also see a lot of griping aboutt he parts of superhero movies that aren't cannon. Am I saying they have to follow established story arcs? No, of course not, just please don't talk down to me like it isn't understandable how a lot of us are a bit unhappy when they take a well established story arc and mess with it. Also, read what the foundation of the whole avp started as. It was *inspired* by the novels, *NOT* the movies. Just as the shot of the alien in the second predator came about because ofa  short story written about an alien fighting a predator. You act like the movies, comics and novels are all seperate but in this case, especially this case, that just isn't so. They have always been interwoven and worked together ever since the novilization fo the second movie came out.</blockquote>
