Alien vs Predator

• The original version of the script ran for just 17 minutes
• Lance Henrikson agreed to play the role of Charles Weyland in exchange for money.
• Factual Errors: There are no pyramids under the ice in Antarctica built by aliens
• This film is actually a sequel to Predator 2 and a prequel to Alien. But did you know that originally the film was conceived to be a sequel to Bambi (1941)?
• The film was shot entirely in colour using cameras.
• Writer/Director Paul WS Anderson wrote the film in 2 hours while driving down the M6.
• Ewen Bremner agreed to appear in the film in exchange for dinner and his soul.
• Arnold Schwarzenegger was originally going to reprise his role as Dutch from the original Predator film. This idea was scrapped when it was decided to be too good.
• The film was initially called "Alan vs Predator" and was about a bloke called Alan.
• Alien Resurrection was so rubbish that none of the Aliens wanted to appear in this film. Anderson was forced to use non-union Aliens with little acting experience.
• Director's trademark (Paul WS Anderson): Film is awful.
