Every single encounter needs to make an impact, every single conflict needs to leave one of the creatures (or human characters) wounded or dead. To do this both species need to be deadly, to each other and the human characters. Predator film to do is balance their portrayal of the creatures, to respect them and their earlier portrayals in the films. They must have missed tail class during their Alien combat training. I’m not sure about everyone else but I sure didn’t think it was badass when Wolf was holding two Aliens by their necks, seemingly unable to do anything against the solitary Predator. In an effort to make the solitary Predator character seem more empowered and badass, he is seen dispatching a multitude of Aliens, reducing their effectiveness and demeaning their portrayal to do it. I’m looking specifically at Aliens vs Predator – Requiem for this. What I won’t accept is poor treatment of either creature. So I accept that the humans will inevitably come up victorious in some fashion or another. Understandably it would be impossible for a crossover film to be able to please both fanbases as a clear victor on either side as the other would undoubtedly take to the internet to vent their rage.
