From Chud, "Scooper Brendan O’Neill sent us a link to this picture, which is apparently the first image from Alien vs Predator 2, and it’s a doozy. And by doozy I mean a complete piece of crap.
There’s something about the rubbery Xenomorph suit that calls to mind the crummier Godzilla movies. The Predator looks good enough, I suppose, but as Brendan points out, why is he using a targeting laser at head-butting distance? It’s actually the presence of the laser that makes me question the reality of the photo, but the truth is that I can completely believe that AVP2 will look exactly this bad.
For reasons that I don’t fully understand, AVP2 will be coming out in December of this year. It isn’t like they’ll be shooting throughout 2007 (in fact, are they done already?), and I strongly doubt that there will be massive amounts of expensive CGI effects to work on throughout the year. I guess Fox just wants to keep the film away from this summer’s franchise bloodbath."

Suck, suck suckity suck. Maybe someday someone will do a Casino Royale-style reboot of the Alien franchise, but it looks like we'll have at least one more crap movie to groan about.
Who's excited about AVP, like, at all?
From Iwatchstuff, " don't know what I was expecting, but somehow this first image from Alien Versus Predator 2, while maintaining a strict adherance to the concept, is also utterly pathetic. Maybe it's that the Alien is hanging like an enamored girlfriend off the Predator's arm. Maybe it's that the flimsy rubber of the Alien suit is collapsing under the slight pressure of the Predator actor's hand. Or maybe I've just finally outgrown the notion of two characters from unrelated series duking it out in a story that strains to stretch an idiotic premise across an hour-and-a-half. That being said, if they make a movie where Superman fights Batman, or anything where werewolves fight zombies, it will be totally fucking sweet."
