In this week's issue of Film Music Weekly, music composer Brian Tyler did an interview with them about a film called Bug. Right at the end of the interview, he briefly mentions AvP2 and how it will be like the originals:
"Now I am scoring "Aliens vs Predator 2" and that is absolutely incredible to work on. The Brothers ... [Read More]

Alien Experience have done an interview with the assistant art director on AvP2, Andrew Li. There's a lot of interesting stuff in it about the predator ship and the sewer set.
"I worked mainly on the sewer set and the predator spacecraft> ... We wanted to keep the sewer relatively small so that the aliens and predators would look very ... [Read More]
About time I did another one of these. Probably should have made a newsie last week when Colin gave this big spoiler away about teamups in the Q&A Topic.
There will definitely be no human-predator teamups in AvP2. That's probably a big story spoiler and in my opinion, it's definitely a big plus point.
We'll possibly see something new in the ... [Read More]

So, as scheduled, the big Fangoria "Weekend of Horrors" event took place this weekend. Unfortunately, there was no footage or anything. It just featured ADI duo Tom Woodruff and Alec Gillis, and Colin Strause talking about the film for a short time. The main bit of new information is that they said that a "new monster" makes its way into ... [Read More]

"Mankind's most lethal adversaries battle for supremacy, and whoever wins--we lose. In a skyliner high above the Alien-contaminated earth, Caryn Delacroix can't sleep. Terrifying images of pursuit, disfigurement, and bloody death have invaded her peaceful dreams in her safe and privileged world. But they're only ... [Read More]
Hicks over at Alien Experience has done a lenghty article about the stunts in AvP2. They've spoken to a few stunt-related crew members. The article doesn't give a whole lot away though. It's more about stunts in general rather than any specifically related to AvP2. A little too technical for me. :wink: There's a couple of semi-new ... [Read More]
