Forget that: watch the waste of time that is Blue Gender sometime. Man, that's make AVP look like a masterpiece by comparison.
Predators in labcoats is about as funny an image as Klingons in labcoats....their society just does'nt seem technology-driven, yet it's silly to think that no improvments would've been made.
Mabye they have far more advanced tech and limit themselves to select weapons as part of the hunting ritual....
Of course, their ships would still be diffrent (unless they suffer from time-dialation effects, in wich case, the same predators might have been alive for the the good ol'days of hums worshippers, I suppose.

Hi Guys I was just wondering if anybody know how Paul W.S. Anderson was able to bring these to franchise together. I saw on tv on Friday that the owners of both Alien and Predator do not like one another? Anybody know for sure, just wondering and thanks ;-)

I believe Fox owns both franchises; it is, however, entirely possible that Fox hates itself.

Fox does indeed own both- lock, stock and barrell: they've been making AVP comics since the early 90's.
Even if Fox hates itself, I still hate them far more.

Well, I guess it's another movie that I can walk out on.

I had a girl expertly lick my ear through a movie once (shudder!). I can't recall what movie it was or what it was about but it was the best movie-experience of my entire life.
I left halfway through Tomb Raider- someone had pulled a fire alarm (interrupting the laughably bad movie) and while the theatre staff said they'd rewind the movie, it just was not worth my time to stay.
I should've walked out of Event Horizon but some part of me thought Sam Neil and Larry Fischburne would'nt actually be in a movie so stupid. I thought it had to get better......I was wrong.

Does that include Apocalypse Now and Boyz N the Hood?
I remember suffering through Event Horizon, and at some supposedly dramatic moment with Larry on screen, my friend Marc leaned over and whispered, "What's Love Got to Do With It?"* I burst out laughing. It was the most enjoyable part of the movie.
*-The title of the 1993 film in which Larry played Ike Turner.

King of New York was an excellent film with him. Plus, when he when kills Wesley Snipes' charcter, it's soooooo funny!

Given what I've paid to see a movie, I can't bring myself to walk out. I was tempted during The Big Bounce.
I like the big budget Jerry Bruckhimer type movies such as The Rock, Armaggedon, Gone in 60 Seconds, Con-Air, etc.

I have partially blinded myself already just so that I can read your posts without crying over the terrible, terrible things you do to our language, but that is getting out of control.
The apostrophe goes where the missing letters are, not where the two words join together. So "wouldn't", "shouldn't", "hasn't", and so on.
Carry on.
(And while you are correct about Blue Gender, that doesn't really support my "anime shows going on long past their sell-by date merely with the aim of making money" argument. But well done for trying.)

How about Inuyasha? Dragonball QRSTUV or whatever they got it up to?
