I'm a BIG fan of both the Aliens and the Predator books. My library of movies, comics, books, games etc etc is extensive and i can pretty much recite every line in all of them.
Personally though, my favouritism goes with the Aliens.

OMG, wow, your reliable source for why predators are cooler then aliens has arrived.
based on the movie avp:
Predators are a very advanced species that travel through the universe and are much like samurai in the way that they aren't afraid to die in combat and are very good hunters, and much of their philosophies relate to honor.
The predators created the Aliens as a species either to train theirselves in hunting or as just a great opponent. Much like humans going out to hunt deers and stuff, they like to hunt so they made aliens for the sport of hunting.
Predators will own aliens anyday. they are Daddy to the aliens.
whose your daddy? predators.

Predators sickest movie.. espically when the alien tries to creap down on him all quietly and BOOM the predator cuts his head off and then puts his weapon away like it never happened, that is soo awsome!!! GREAT MOVIE!!!

Technically comparing Aliens and Predators is like comparing Humans to Dogs.
It's pretty dumb. Alien animals, and Alien humaniod intelligent lifeforms. Apples and Oranges.

I prefer having abilites rather than using technology, theoretically.
For example I hate the punisher and nick fury (sorry ben), and like spiderman etc.
Lame I know.
Alien is far physically superior to predator and the films are infintiely better.
(let's just push alien vs pred under the carpet and shoot the director)

No one.

No one ever wins these movies.
Besides, it's not really a species vs species vs species when you have a small enclosed area miles underground, with a couple preds, a couple aliens, and a couple humans.
All the aliens in the movie died, all the main preds in the battle died, but there were hundreds of other preds that came at the end, and an alien was born from a pred at the end, plus a human chick survived, so no one at all won really.
Mr Ed
Jul 7 2005, 08:01 PM
Please, please, don't talk about that film.
nick_fury
Jul 7 2005, 08:03 PM
but the predators always won before... and if they didn't win they made sure nothing survived, and surely an open area would just favour predators stealth capability and long range projectiles further?
Mr Ed
Jul 7 2005, 08:05 PM
It all depends on circumstance, which is why you have to strip them both down to what they basically are. Physically, to be fair. Therefor Aliens would win. That is just my excuse to let the aliens win.
That film was a travesty. I hope that this is the last time it gets brought up. I am crying just thinking about what it has done to the alien genre.
WHERE WAS SIGOURNEY WEAVER?!
BurnSide
Jul 7 2005, 08:08 PM
Preds can't win, there is no enemy to win against.
It's not a war. Aliens are to predators like cows are to humans. They are cattle, hunting them is sport. There will always be more game, because the preds continue to breed Aliens.
Aliens are animals, they have no sense of victory, or even death.
So there really is no question of winning or losing.

Bishop wasn't in the film. Bishop was an Android created in the image of the founder of the Weyland/Yutani corporation.
Mr Weyland, the founder, was in the movie.

I have a feeling you'd have liked the movie better if you understood it. Did Romero direct it? No, it was that flop Anderson, same director as the RE movie.

Jul 7 2005, 08:15 PM

Romero is the greatest zombie movie director of all time, acclaimed by anyone with any sense, you my friend are thinking of Paul W S Anderson, who beat Romero to the honour of directing resident evil only to make a hash of it

I've read a load of aliens and aliens vs predator books etc, I love them.
If you compare them...
A single naked predator vs a single naked alien will result in a serious alien win. If that predator is wearing it's tech it will win. A teched up predator could probably 'realistically' take 2-3 aliens in close combat max if it was very experienced.
Aliens are easier prey when contained. However, if a queen was accidentally released on a predator homeworld and was not detected until it was too late... then I would seriously worry about the predators survival, no matter the tech. The regular aliens are as intelligent as a dog... but the Queen is far more intelligent.
But in my opinion aliens are the scariest damn thing ever invented, and used to haunt my nightmares for ages as a kid. I'd rather have a predator stalking me any day, lol.

Alien 2 followed by Predator 1 are the best movies
A Predator would kill an Alien one-on-one.... without its technology though, a Predator probably would not be a match for an alien.
BurnSide
Jul 7 2005, 08:57 PM
When you pit a naked alien against a naked predator you have an armoured extremely agile creature that can scale walls and use it's hands, teeth and tail as extremely formidable weapons, which is also extremely fast and has acid blood, and you have a... lump of soft flesh, which is reasonably strong, slow, and has no weapons of any kind.
That would not look good for the pred.

The predator has natural claws I think,and is a lot stronger than an alien.Alien would propably win though.
As for the bishop guy,I think the one he was constructed by(The founder of Weyland) turns up at the end of one of the aliens movies.The prison planet I think it was.

Predators natural claws would be worth nothing against the aliens tail, jaws, and razor claws. It would get mushed lol.

Yeah the pred has tiny nails, nothign like the aliens huge talons.

And yes, you're correct, the 'real' Bishop turns up at the end of Alien3. He claims to the man who created the Bishop android, and based it on himself. Indeed when he is hit over the head, red blood spews forth, not white android blood.
This is my main beef with the story of AVP.
If the REAL Bishop is in Alien3, some 150 years in the future, howcome there is a man, the founder of the company, who looks identical to this 'real' Bishop, who is supposed to be the man the android is based on?? Freaking stupid.
I have a feeling Anderson never even bothered to watch Alien3 to make the storyline actually fit.

id go with the aliens as well, thier hive animals, just like bees, ants, termites, they work as a unit, its awesome
and id say an alien vs a fully armed predator in an open space would go to the pred, but in a closed space, id say the alien, requardless of what armor or weapons the pred had
