Predators

Well at least thats something:)

Does anyone know why it wasn't used in AVP?

I'm assuming it might be due to rights issues.

Which is actually quite strange given the fact I'v heard the Predator music being used in trailers for other movies!
 
One thing that puzzled me was that Brody spenRAB most of the film with a knife strapped to his chest suggesting he's a bit of a dab hand with one.
However, when he fights the Pred at the end he decides whacking it repeatedly in its protective helmet is the quickest way to bring it down. Hmmmm, what a pro.
 
He was a doctor. The end of the movie merely added that he was also a serial killer. The two aren't mutually exclusive - think of Shipman. He showed evidence of medical knowledge several times in the film.

My point is that the final reveal would have been slightly more surprising if he had acted more like a medic. It would have been easier to believe he was there as a non-combatant, to keep the others alive, rather than as a killer in his own right.
 
I must say that I liked Predators, it has definitely recaptured the spirit of the 1987 original.

I also liked the fact that they shunned the use of excessive CGIs & went back to old fashioned makeup & props, as that always looks more authentic, especially if done well.
