nudzi you still da man. I know your trying to help. Yeah my story may have some holes but I tried. I can answer a few of ur questions. One, if you remember, the Predator mask in P1 looked very easy to take off, as soon as he unpluged the wires. In these new ones, they manage to suck on to there face. I just wanted to make Preds more like the way they were. I also took that idea from the comics. In the first version of AVP, when the preds started losing, the tails would knock the helmets right off. Now really it's up to you whether you want to say this film takes place before ALien or after. I put the nostromo thing becasue of AVP-R. But remember, at the end of AVP-R, we know how they knew about Aliens before anyone else did. I think we could have the power since we had new alien tech. And I love the Predators. See I had to tweek this thing, casue I was gonna make Preds unstoppible. Once again I didn't describe the fights...yet, so you don't know how well the Preds do in this. Really I'm treating the Preds as Preds, and Aliens as Aliens. If this was real, you would not see what the Aliens and Preds look like until the middle of the middle of the film. I wanted it to be a mystery to what these new Preds look like. I don't really see why ppl would not take me seriously, esp. considering the fact that I have thought and copyright my 3 other AVP3 ideas. I really want to know what other people want AVP3 to be like.
