yeah true that..and scar stabbed the queen through the neck and she just kept going
however the predalien is impaled through the head...which should be an instant kill...again, should be
That was not her neck; that was her HEAD that Scar stuck his spear through.
Lex was the one who stuck the stinger tipped (must be sharp) spear into the Queen's neck, and that did not seem to do more than be painful either.
The Queen is the big monster of the Aliens, but it is still good evidence that at least one member of their kind can survive such trauma.
We have seen that chest trauma is lethal to predators, on the other hand, as seen in P2. Glover did not push the disc all the way through either, like how the tail spike is.
It is very fan-boyish to argue that the Predator will survive getting his chest impaled by the PredAlien stinger, yet the PredAlien will die from its head injuries.
IMHO either they BOTH die there or they both live and continue to fight.
It looks like one of those, they "die killing each other" situations. I also think it was a big spoiler.
I know there are a ton of Predator fanboys wanting the Predator to live, to kill all the Aliens, patch himself up from the wimpy PredAlien impaling, with his medkit, and just have a Predator jock riding festival.
If the Predator kills all the Aliens, and only gets injured, yet lives, killing the PredAlien, then the movie is called "Predator PWNS Aliens", and would be a big "Fvck you" to alien fans, while at the same time is a "let me slob your knob" to predator fans.
Colin and Greg seem respectful enough of the Alien franchise not to make that happen.
