Actually, I have followed the franchise reasonably closely (at least I did until I was about 14 and then I started dating). ?I love Aliens. ?I want them to win. ?But the fact is, their main asset is that they have strength in numbers.

Just ask any marine with a pulse rifle.

Yes, a human would have been ripped apart, but we're not dealing with a human here. ?We're dealing with a Predator who can't even design his main weaponry (bad ass claws) to withstand the acid blood of what, according to the lore, is his arch nemesis.

So yes, Aliens are just as dangerous as Predators to humans, but in the comics et al. the Aliens are usually successful only when they surprise the Predators or they attack in force.

Oh god I hope my girlfriend doesn't read this post.

That's my experience. ?I own a few of the Dark Horse comics, but I don't claim to be an expert. ?Neither is most of humanity, though, so I feel like I'm speaking for the common guy--the guy who is going to be duped out of ten bucks next Friday.

I hope you're right and I'm wrong about this movie. ?I've been waiting for it ever since just before puberty.

And I would love to get another job but then who would take Jack to the hospital after he finishes bleeding all over his opponents.
