Why "Wolf" alien?

[AdamBombOi]

Wow, do you really think of Scar, Celtic, and Chopper as dorks? I thought Scar was the only cool, not dork one.The other two sucked.

LMAO, nah, I got love for em.

I'm sure they all could have done much better had the 'team' not ganked their guns. Hell, I bet they'd have lived if the humans weren't a distraction to them.

Re: Why "Wolf" alien?

Aliens are badass and all, but if they're used by an entire race to 'train' their young, the superior being is the Predator. - Excluding the three dead dorks in AvP.

no, people are hunted by young predators.
aliens are hunted by seasoned adults with varying degrees of success.

in any case, the avp comics/movies are poorly made and don't count.
so, there.

Right.

Of course, with every Predator and AvP book printed, a slew of comics, the video games, and the movies, I somehow missed all of that.

Argue all you want, the movies are the one thing considered to be, 'canon,' and in them, the poor lil bugs are Bambi and the teenage Predator's are the big bad hunters.

Aliens are the Predator's '^^^^^.'

The way I see it is that anything can beat an alien if given the right weapons.
However, an alien can beat anything in (hand to hand) close combat.

No human ever beat an alien without the use of technology; however, Predators got their ***** handed to them in P1 & P2 by wood, rocks, and their own weapons. Do any of you believe that an alien could have been killed in the same manner by humans?

Anyways, humans are the superior race IMO.

An Alien would never have been able to pick Dutch's team apart like the Pred did. He would have charged in and Blaine would have smoked it with ole' painless. And I believe the inmates took an alien out without technology....molten lead and water.

actually, who the crap thought it was a good idea to make them fight eachother in the first place?
i don't get the connection.
freddy vs jason? makes sense.
aliens vs predator = wtf.

Dark Horse comics, to be exact. It's a pretty sound piece of logic; Predators seek the most dangerous prey, and what could be more dangerous than an Alien? Both are (roughly) human-sized alien monsters, with broadly similar power levels, which exist in a semi-realistic setting. It's far MORE logical than Freddy vs Jason IMO.

The original Alien, Alien3 creature and Newborn were ultimately tricked and ambushed by humans - not much different to the Predators really - and I suspect a tree trunk dropped from a great height would hurt an Alien quite badly as well. The essence of all the films is that human guts and ingenuity has to come through where technology and brute force fails.

Its definitely more logical than Freddy vs Jason.
How the hell would Freddy know who Jason is in the first place ?.
The predators are a race that obviously want the best trophys so they went looking , in avp requeim at the begging there is a space jockey skull on the wall to the right. They found the space jockeys which obviously led on to the aliens then using them in the pyramids.
Its actually very logical.

I agree, if the team hadn't jacked their ^^^^ they would've been able to do some serious alien killing.

Where has it been said that is how Predators reproduce?

Colin said that in some interview, im 98% sure about that.

Yes there was. The aliens where in a human ship in outer space.
If not for the depressurization, the Newborn and ALIEN would not have died. As for the ALIEN3 creature, it was trapped in a human installation. Again....technology. And I doubt wood would have any affect on an alien. See what it did to the steel pressure-doors? The force needed to bend those far outclasses the damage wood inflict.

ALIENS sure says otherwise. The marines where ambushed.
The ALIEN would do the same as the Predator did. (pick them off one by one)

Oh, and btw... the ALIEN3 creature died because of molten lead and water ,yes. But humans can not walk around with that in their bums.... so again...technology a.k.a. sprinklers and furnaces.

Dark Horse didn't come up with the idea, they just published some nerd's nonsense fan fiction because both franchises are owned by 20th Century Fox, so it was super easy to get publishing rights.
that's not even the point--the whole point of matching up a Predator fight is to try to make it even, and according to the movies, that's Danny Glover.
what's the point of watching AVP's weaker, smaller, downgraded aliens get blasted? those preds would've been slaughtered just like the marines in Aliens.

do you read/watch a lot of scifi?
by your criteria, there's thousands monsters for predators to fight. so, there isn't one part of your statement that makes sense.
and, i don't remember seeing any predators go through welded steel doors, so there's no way predators are anywhere near as powerful.

the whole point of the Alien movies is they can't really be stopped.
that's why the protagonist is a woman--because toughness doesn't make any difference against them... and in spite of her cleverness, she died.
so did all of the marines.
Predator wasn't even as smart as Arnold, so predators are just as screwed.

you know what would make more sense? Predator vs Boba Fett.
they were both cool looking mysterious characters who barely showed up in their movies and hunted people with fancy gadgets.
and they both died like bumbling idiots from Three Stooges-style prat falls.
and, hey, i think Fox owned/distributed both properties.

this has become retarded. i'm going outside.

And yet Wolf smoked your precious aliens by the hand full. Now lets hear you whine about "it's the moviemakers" and how "they didn't do the Aliens justice". Well you know what? Thank your boy Jimmy Cameron for that, he turned the cool and calculating killing machine from Alien into bugs. Bugs that are fodder.
And Aliens being more powerful than Preds? You're letting your obvious fanboyness get in the way if you believe that stupid statement. Take that fanboy crap to the AVPGalaxy or PlanetAVP forums.

Theres a difference..... in Aliens there was a hive of bugs, you think one alien would have picked off Dutch's team like the single Predator did?...nope. Aliens swarm you. I'd take a Clan of Preds over a swarm of Aliens. One Alien couldn't defeat prison inmates and a chick with no weapons. A pred would have them hanging upside down a skinned....No wait....no sport there. Not worth his time.

And as to your first statement "If not for the depressurization, the Newborn and ALIEN would not have died." Are you kidding me using IF? That's like saying IF the tree didn't hit the Predator he would have killed Dutch! And the Prison isn't technology...it was a dilapidated Molten lead works. A building turned into a prison.

Well, I agree to disagree.
You'll always see it your way (the predator-fanboy way), and I'll always see it mine.

I think the movies speak for themselves though. ALIENS 7, Predators 4

I actually like the portrayal of the Alien/Predator relationship in SOME of the comics.

The AvP movies weren't terrific, but cause they're on the screen they are considered "canon". Paul Anderson stated that Scar, Celtic and Chopper were indeed "young" Predators.

In the comics, Predators seem to view the Xenomorphs and human as both dangerous prey. The Xenos however are used in their "Blooded" hunting rituals (making the young "official hunters") much like what was seen in AVP. The Predators see the Xenos as dangerous, mindless prey...and mostly use them to train the younger generations. Human are actually seen MORE dangerous in some occassions due to their ingenuity and fact that they are intelligent creatures in contrast to the Xenomorphs. However they are seen as unworthy prey if they don't carry a weapon/don't threaten the Predator (much like in the movies).
