the Xenomorph skull is still there in Predator 2. Whether it's just an easter egg or not, doesn't matter, it IS there and it does confirm that Xenomorphs exist in the Predator canon, end of story.

Indeed, some would say, "if it's on film, it's canon".

Jesus that armor is an eyesore. I don't care if it's a "military or police issue armor" or whatever fanfic you wanna come up with. Its bland and ugly and makes The Predator look like a cheap parody of itself.

A sex movie. ;D



Good thing that's a joke. I don't think a movie that's called "The Sexual Predator" is going to do very well at the box office.

Mmm in the beautiful world we are living in, you never know  :P

Making AVP canon is far from being "the worst idea ever". The AVP movies might not be good, but on a world-building level they didn't destroy or interfere with nothing within the canon of the franchises. They're not Alien: Resurrection. There are far worse movies and spin-offs out there. Keeping AVP canon is a smart move because for one it lets the door open for a future AVP movie that's actually good, especially now that shared universes are a thing, and also because hell, the Xenomorph skull is still there in Predator 2. Whether it's just an easter egg or not, doesn't matter, it IS there and it does confirm that Xenomorphs exist in the Predator canon, end of story. So you might as well make AVP canon; if The Predator were to blatantly ignore AVP it would just be confusing for some people - the way Prometheus and Covenant were, but worse, since the Predator canon has a direct connection to Xenomorphs from way back.

Yeah, I think people sometimes forget how old the connection between Predator and Alien is.  This is not just some new idea from the 2000's.  But as a fan I'd be better satisfied if the creators were to stick to the original source material (which is by far more enjoyable, imo) than try to come up with stuff outside of the lore - at the beginning.  They should establish AvP first with solid material, like the Noguchi or Delacroix stories, and maybe then start producing more original elements to the stories.

I'd hardly call the bloated dumpster fire that was Deadliest of the Species "solid material".

I actually first bought the comic around that time and didn't actually appreciate it until sometime last year. Definitely had to read it from a different perspective than the other comics, but think it's great now. Not sure what changed, age maybe?

Not that I'm aware of.
