I saw this movie with the free ticket from the "Predator" SE. I thoroughly enjoyed it. My favorite line was when the female lead, realizing that she and her companion are lost in the pyramid and that many of her companions are dead or dying, says something like:

I think we're going to have to deal with the possibility that we may not make it out of here alive

I had to hold my mouth shut, I'm sure some of the (10) other people in the theater heard me laughing. I thought that was a punchline, here's a lead in a monster movie acknopwledging that they may be doomed. So funny.
The only Anderson movie I've seen before this is "Event Horizon" which I also thoroughly enjoy.
IMO this movie was far better than Alien3 or Alien Resurrection IMO.
I was hoping to see the queen at least try to swin to the surface, the Aliens are very good swimmers.

Wasn't FmW what the satellite guys were watching in the beginning?

I've read elsewhere that it was. Quite appropriate.
I believe that the queen knew that the chestburster in the Predator was already viable so she didn't mind killing it. The only thing I question is why did the predators start killing people off above ground, wouldn't they want to round them up to host Aliens for the "real" hunt?
And as for the so called "honorable" nature of the predators, I don't buy it. They pick off creatures much less powerful then them who can not really defend themselves for fun. See the first movie. They are intergalactic a-holes.
