Well, Greg wasn't lying; they did make the back of the head rounded again. That's good.
Pity about everything else. They tried going biomechanical with the neck, but it just looks like a mess. The hands don't look quite like they'll have super long fingers again, but the production still says otherwise.
Tell me, when the Strause's say 'the roots', do they mean the
original movies, or the first AvP movie? Cos that don't look much like something we'd have seen in
Alien or
Aliens, and yet the Predator looks like he walked right out of the Predator ship at the end of the second movie.
Maybe next time
EDIT
Oooh, looks like they kind of de-fleshified the Alien's belly a bit. Doesn't save the design but it's a nice touch.
