Sure, ideally. But most fisherman aren't well-versed in wrestling sharks, and big game hunters don't plan to enter hand-to-hand combat with leopards.

That's because when you fish for sharks (some do), you're probably not using a simple fishing rod, nor are you alone. Same story with big game hunters. I don't know particulars but I would imagine if they're smart, they'll use a sniper rifle.

Or a high-tech energy gun. Anytime only picked a hand-to-hand fight with Dutch because at that point, in his eyes, Arnold was a crippled, shaved monkey with delusions of grandeur. He was just screwing around and tenderizing his hide. Doesn't mean he has any real fighting skill.

ALIENS.
Forever and always.

I like them because they appeal to me more. They are a lot more disturbing and more interesting than predators in both their aesthetic and there behaviour.

There is a lot of mystery which surrounds them which intrigues me.

I also feel that they have lots of potential surrounding them in terms of story's and fan art. Which, unfortunately has been abused by noob directors, ADI and various other parties.

Being a hunter doesn't mean you don't know how to fight.
And it doesn't mean you do -- although for some reason Predator fans have always had this image of Predators as insanely skilled hand-to-hand combatants, when none of the movies show this.

No argument there.

I guess it's just because it seems to suit the idea of the Predator as the ultimate hunter.

Agreed.

I think people somehow interpret them as elite warriors of the universe other than Hunters. I blame Comic books and AvP 1.

True, i really couldn't careless if they could fly.


The better alien in my book is well the xenomorph.

Always will be.

Better movies too.

Only enjoyed Aliens, I got to say, I personally think ALien, Alien3 and Alien Ressurection are kinda poor compared to the Predator movies.

All this appears to be in order.

Yes. Very much so.

Glad the issue was corrected.

I'm pretty sure the space trucking hillbillies never excited. The movie was boring and Ripley at the time was one of my least favourites. Well, all in my opinion.
