Fox have released a huge press release. Sorta like Production Notes from the movie. There’s quotes from producer John Davis, Strause Brothers, writer Shane Salerno, ADI, as well as a few cast members.
It’s no accident that the Strause brothers are making their feature film helming debut on a story featuring Aliens and Predators – they’re unabashed fans of both film series. “Colin and Greg live Aliens and Predators,” says John Davis, who produced this film, as well as the original “Predator” and 2005’s “Alien vs. Predator.” “They’ve seen the movies countless times, know the [AVP] comics and played the [AVP] videogames. They really understand these characters.” Adds AVP-R screenwriter Shane Salerno: “The Strause brothers live, eat and breathe these films. The specificity they’ve given AVP-R is remarkable. They’re passionate about this material…”

The two problems I have with it is the addition of the "alien-ized" dreads (which look great on preds, NOT on aliens IMHO) and the predator's flesh tone. But mainly the dread locks. *shudders* Well, considering the opinions and beliefs Colin & Greg already have on both species, it's no wonder they've come with these hair brained ideas and can justify it in their minds. 
The worst part of all this, is the fact that this is an AVP FILM and not some comic, novel or game. Henceforth will be regarded as canon. Which is exactly why great care needed to be taken with not just continuity and the tone and feel of the film (which they've nailed by the way 
).
The new reproductive method is a joke, completely unnecessary, screws with canon and essentially now kills the possibility of a pred-alien queen. The "dominant" gene and "80-20% ratio" theories are absurd. What I want to know is, are they suggesting that predator's reproduce in a similar manner and that's where the pred-alien gets it?! 
If so, they'll need to go into hiding 'cause that's gonna piss A LOT of fans off. And why do male pred's bother covering up that huge bulge between their legs if it's not what we all assumed it is? 
... that's why they reproduce in an oral way
