I didn't see anything wrong in the first AvP movie, and i agree about AvP R are an abomination. I think people complaints about an Alien killed two Predators, who they perceives as killer of an entire commando squad, while Aliens can do the same, but people see them as mere cannon fodder. Aliens deserved more respect, but people backlash when Grid killed Celtic and Chopper. People also complaints about the quick gestating time, which is too quick for an Alien to grow adult. The cardboard characters maybe one of the worst part, and Scar quickly align himself to Lex, who just killed one Alien receives some backlash, although i'm okay with that. For a reminder, this is a versus film, like Freddy vs Jason, where the winner is decided by the Director who is biased to one character, but it is still a good popcorn movie.
