Predator won.

Apparently there was going to be a small fight between Grid and Scar before they escaped the pyramid. Grid was stabbed by a disc, and the acid wounded Scar as he fled upwards on the sled. Grid would've made it to the surface before the explosion destroyed everything.

[Corporal Hicks]

I wouldn't say he disappeared. We just don't see him get any more big fights. We see him plenty.

[SiL]

Grid and Scar were going to square off before Lex made them evacuate.

Grid reaches the surface and then boom.

Kind of wish he'd at least got his proper sendoff.

[Huntsman]

The scene I described above would've been fine. But as is, it's enough. The result is still the same.

Great thread. I can't believe I haven't seen it before

Considering Aliens infesting hosts to infiltrate new locations is one of their strategies, and Scar got hugged during the course of the fight, you can easily argue that the PredAlien means the Aliens ultimately won. The only thing to survive the hunt was an incubating Alien.

I'd say we can't be certain the Alien Queen is dead.

[Master Chief]

Our Antarctic Queen is alive.  Even with a gaping wound in her head and throat.  With talks of more movies coming, including an AvP, it would be a good time for her to resurface.

If a new AVP gets made, I hope it gets nothing to do with the first two movies. I'm not opposed to a movie set in the future... You know with space marines and stuff...

[BlueMarsalis79]

I'd like that myself.

Totally. Personally, I'd have a considerable time jump so canon didn't really matter.

[BlueMarsalis79]

Actively contradict AVP 2004 at every possible avenue.

[Master]

Why would you want to destroy other mans work? Someone put heart into it, some respect is deserved for the effort itself.

[BlueMarsalis79]

Because Paul W.S Anderson literally gets people killed by having awful on set safety for his films, AVP 2004 likely being no exception (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-features/death-injuries-amputations-is-resident-evil-hollywoods-dangerous-franchise-1244726/) and arguably the Strause Bros (supremely scummy VFX company https://www.glassdoor.co.uk/Reviews/Hydraulx-Reviews-E494935.htm?filter.iso3Language=eng) and crew (Johnny Lewis) of Requiem are even more ultimately despicable, sure I know that good people definitely worked on them but I would rather the franchises were washed of their association with the filth.

They're not the only ones involved. You have to separate art from artist to a certain extent.
