i think you guys are taking this thing abit too seriously, i mean you have to get some thing new into a film otherise its just same and the one before, every has done to the alien films starting with cameron: enter the queen, then fincher: enter the hybrids, same the predator, at what point during predator do you get the hint that they travel around in groups? u just see him dumped off at the beginning, he could have meant to be the last of his kind and for some reason abandoned hi main ship, predator 2 comes in and suddenly theres more of them, we see evidence that they go to other planets, we see evidence theyve hunted aliens, and that travel together.
how is that different to what is being done in avpr? the "new" RC is just something we havent seen yet, in aliens the nest was nicely established when the marines went in so the queen was secure enough to start producing eggs, i mean remeber the queen is pretty vulnerable when shes creating eggs, theres possible soem downside the the baffing thing which means that the queens dont do it all the time only as an emergency thing? and people are still going on about the egg morphine idea seen in the deleted scenes of alien, any idea why it wasnt included in the finish version of the film? not just because it changed the atmosphere of teh film but more importantly - it was a crap idea lol.
so before you go on slagging the strauses about adding things in that werent in the films originally, just remember every one else has since after teh first alien and predator films
