[QUOTE="nitecwlr, post: 7773735, member: 642348"] Cameron's involvement and the existence of the AVP movies is irrelevant and doesn't change the facts in what I said. AVP dates back to the 80s and original stories published by Darkhorse Comics. This is [B]decades[/B] before Cameron or anyone else even dreamed about making AVP movies and the AVP movies that were released are based solely on these stories, though they did a terrible job of re-creating them. Based on those stories, Predators are were a key factor in the spread of Xenomorph aliens across the galaxy. I never said that Predators [B]created[/B] the Xenomorphs; they simply discovered their existence, much like humans did and decided to use them in Rite of Passage rituals around the galaxy. The aliens in Prometheus or "Space Jokeys" as they're referred to in the Aliens movies (and comics) were always known to be a race that predated both the Predators and Humanity and that they were connected to the Xenomorphs in some way. All that long winded rambling said... Prometheus is not directly related to the Aliens (or AVP) universe. Scott is telling a new story based on his original concepts; or so I'm told. [/QUOTE]
