Canon does not exist so... What is YOUR Alien versus Predator canon?

Good template? Not in the slightest. It's just AVP 2004 in space...

Also I hope after Demonic you are not seriously still holding out hope for more half baked Neill Blomkamp ideas.

Yup. I didn't like the ALIENS fan boy A5 premise to begin with, but I had to admit that some of the concepts presented looked alluring. The storyline seemed to be all over the place and there were some truly silly stuff tossed in there (the mech Queen suit for example), but I could see something fun and exciting materializing out of it if Blomkamp were to be surrounded by the right kind of people, as he's indeed a VERY flawed director.

Then I started watching DEMONIC, and oh boy - what a crap fest of a movie. Conceptually cool of course, like all of his stuff, but the actual movie is a total reeker. Yikes!

So yeah, I'm truly happy he didn't get to turn his A5 idea into an actual movie. I don't even think the Cameron fans would've been happy about it, even with Hicks (and Newt) being brought back from the dead to fight W-Y alongside Ripley. Even so, I have a hunch that this project will be revived at some point, or we'll see aspects from the project presented in future movies and media. Or like some people suggested: A novel or comic book adaptation of the script.

I don't remember saying people are wrong for liking things but please do pull me up next time I do, it's trash.

I am the Trash Queen!

But I never said that, just that AVP 2010 in no respect makes a good basis for a film but do continue anyway.

There's 2 continuities that i appreciate

Alternate:
Alien (theatrical)
Aliens (special edition)
Audible's adaptation of Gibson's Alien 3

Main:
Alien (theatrical)
Alien Isolation
Aliens (theatrical)
Alien Cold Forge
Alien3 (Assembly Cut)
Alien Into Charybdis
Prometheus
Alien Covenant

+ lots of Dark Horse stories that don't really fit in any continuity

(I'm fairly sure the tv show will delete Resurrection from continuity or at least make its existence impossible,
it probably will also make Alex White's books impossible to consider "canon".. not that it matters much.. they're awesome and will continue to be so).
