I don't think there will be much of a storyline either.

Graphic novels tell us that the Predators cultivated the Aliens, introducing them into
new worlds so that the Aliens would take on attributes of the creatures they infested.
Thus the Predators always had fresh new creatures to hunt.
I'll be interested to see how they interpret this.

From what I've read and heard that is pretty much what is going to happen. Not sure though, can't always believe everything you read.

That is the idea, but they find them on Earth in Antarctica. Which messes up the the past films about Predator as they only turn up where it is hot?

From what I've read in movie magazines and on websites, the explorers find a Pyramid buried under the ice in Antarctica. When they go inside to investigate they find themselves in the middle of a battle between teenage preadators and the aliens. Supposedly the teen predators are hunting the aliens as a type of 'coming of age' thing.

I saw that trailer when I went to see "The Day After Tomorrow" and it was the first time I have seen any kind of finished scenes from the movie. I have to admit, I was very excited as I had been following this movie for quite some time (even found an old script that was basically lifted directly from the graphic novel).
My two most favorite exterterrestrials: Aliens and the Predator, almost like Reese's Peanut Butter cups, the two great tastes that taste great together! My only concern is if I remember correctly, the director of AvP also directed Resident Evil...which was not so great of a movie, but maybe that is the fault of trying to base a movie off of a video game (speaking of which, if there are any gamers out there, go and try AvP2 for the PC, Monolith really got the atmosphere down pat, never have I jumped in my seat from playing a video game :P).

I just checked to see and yes, Paul Anderson (the director) did do Resident Evil. He also did Mortal Kombat, Soldier (with Kurt Russell) and Event Horizon. I liked Resident Evil, but Mortal Kombat and Soldier sucked ass....partly due to bad scripts...but Event Horizon still freaks me out to this day!

I agree....Alien was pretty good, but (IMO) Predator was ridiculously over rated!!! I won't pay for this one.....but if you'd like to take me, we can make out in the back of the theater! LOL!

Event Horizon was a good one. Haven't seen the others.
Makes a note to go to the movies in Tennessee!
