Strause Brothers, I appreciate the fact that you wanted us to feel like we did from the other movies but sublety goes a long way. Music cues...okay. Mood Lighting (Except for the fight scenes, couldn't see who was who) Character development was horrible. And was almost parallel to the characters in Aliens. When the daughter looked up at her mother and asked if "Are all the monsters gone now, mommy?" I almost vomited. "Will we be able to sleep now?" - Newt, Aliens Even in the Gun shop, I was half expecting Dallas (yeah, if that's not a throwback name) to show her how to fire a rifle. APC driver and Helicopter pilot? Whatever... And lastly, yeah, I'm longwinded about things I'm passionate about...Weyland Yutani has never known nor has it ever been privy to anything predator. Don't change our comfortable history....(or future) They have always wanted the alien species for their bio weapons division, Trust me, anything Predator would've been scooped up, greatly outweighing anything the Aliens could've provided them insight about. That's not what happened in the future we know. I'm not even going to touch Facehugging PredAlien...total crap. Should've been a queen there, should've been more than one predator, should've been in the future, immediately after Alien Resurrection... I'm done...
