The first - Dutch wasn't toyed. He was found as an equal opponent, who proved in a previous fight his value. It was not fun, even though we've seen. If he wasn't equal, there weren't any duel. Dutch challenged Anytime, Anytime accepted the challenge. It wasn't hunting, it was duel. And it was very seriously. True hand-to-hand combat.
The second - if hunting is them life, them philosophy, it's nothing strange, that they looks for the most worthy and most hard-to-kill opponent.
If the opponent is stronger, the thrill of the hunt is the bigger and the honor to win the trophy is more magnificently. It is simple, even according to human rules.
The third - as a hardcore fan both species, I have the smallest comfort in discussion.
I can understand both kind of fan, but both kind of fans don't understand me.
Funny, I think. We - here - in AvP community - should be like friends, not rivals. I suppose, that every fan should understand this fascination, love and obsession, even if it doesn't concerns his/her beloved species. We are like rejected lovers with a broken heart.
So let's there be peace and understanding. Even if someone is non-canon fan, with head full of books and comics.
(I hate this time difference, which precludes me the most interesting moments of the discussion
).
