Factual error: When they're first entering the whaling camp, a penguin startles Miller. That penguin was a black-footed penguin, which is a bird native to much warmer climates. If that little guy had actually been in Antarctica, he would have died within minutes. (00:20:40)
Alien Vs. Predator (2004)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Paul W.S. Anderson
Starring: Lance Henriksen, Ewen Bremner, Sanaa Lathan, Colin Salmon, Raoul Bova
Lex and the remaining predator make it to the surface. The predator then marks Lex's face with the symbol of the predator. The Queen alien breaks through the ice and she is killed by Lex and the predator by being tied to a big silo at the abandoned whaling station and pushing it and the queen into the freezing water below. But, before she dies, she impales the predator with her tail. Lex goes to the predator's aid and he dies. The predator space ship comes to claim the body and the lead predator gives Lex a sword. On the predator space ship, the new Predalien chestburster comes out of the dead predator. The end?...

Sebastian de Rosa: Non vedo l'ora di uscire da questo piramide con te, perché mi sto cagando addosso. More or less.
Trivia: The way the bespectacled guy shines his torch on the eggs that have just popped up in the Sacrificial Chamber (illuminating the facehugger inside) echoes of the scene in the original Alien where Kane does the same thing to the eggs found in the hold of the ship.
Question: This entire expedition is just that, an expedition. It's not a hunt for Aliens or Predators, so why do Max Stafford and his team bring machine guns into the Pyramid? What are they expecting to find that would cause them to shoot? I've never heard of an archaeological team or a drilling team, for that matter, ever having to refer to projectile weaponry during an excavation.

Answer: Remember that they find the pyramid because of detecting a heat source - which implies that there's something down there, either something living or a technological source, that's created that heat, as spontaneous fires are something of a rarity in the Antarctic. Essentially, they have little or no idea what they might encounter down there, so it makes sense to cover all the possible scenarios, including the possibility of encountering a hostile force.
