		Starring (and I say that loosely) Sanaa Lathan (as ice climber extraordinaire Alexa Woods) and Lance Henriksen (as Weyland Corporation founder, Charles Bishop Weyland), Alien vs Predator is a travesty.
		To be more exact, an exploratory corporation - Weyland Corporation (anyone appreciate the foreshadowing here?) - has discovered a vast underground temple beneath the ice's surface of Antarctica that has recently "powered up" for reasons unknown.
		Weyland and friends figure out that they're just bait, cattle, no less caught in the crossfire between two alien races bent on killing each other.

		Weyland - Yutani is a joint stock corporation that works closely with world governments in the areas of space exploration, commerce, colonization, and military trading.
		When Weyland Yutani started encroaching on Hyperdyne territory, Hyperdyne closed off their doors and attempted to curtail the progress of their “partner.” At about the time the ICC was formed, Hyperdyne sabotaged certain critical operations at Weyland-Yutani, and attempted to take full control of the Sector for itself.
		NEW EDEN / JV The corporation which was formed around the colony of the same name, New Eden/ JV has a strange Corporate structure that is like a smaller version of the ICC, with the New Eden/JV entity itself functioning as a sort of umbrella and the various components retaining their own identities and goals.

		The team's guide, mountaineer Alexa Woods (played by Sanaa Lathan), is the only one who objects, saying that the team needed at least three weeks to prepare for the trip.
		Unbeknownst to the humans, the Predators have had foreknowledge of the building and dug the hole for the team to lure them into the pyramid and begin the hatching season for the Aliens.
		Just before zapping an Alien attacking her Predator partner, Woods says "You're one ugly mother-", most likly going to say "motherfucker" but it was dropped to avoid an R-rating.

	Bishop (android)
		Bishop 341-B is a fictional character from the Alien series of films, an android created by the Weyland-Yutani corporation and played by Lance Henriksen.
		The android was modelled after his creator, Weyland-Yutani robotics engineer Michael Bishop who is the "Bishop II" seen in Alien 3, as confirmed in both the Alien 3 novelization and 2003 DVD commentary for Alien Quadrilogy by Lance Henriksen.
		However, the more recent spin-off film, Alien vs. Predator has ignored this and established its own canon, which implies the Bishop androids were modelled after Charles Bishop Weyland, and therefore the "real" Bishop is another android rather than a human.

	Movie Review: Alien vs. Predator
		Charles Bishop Weyland (Lance Henriksen) is a very wealthy man whose curiosity and desire to have some impact on history are both piqued when a satellite suddenly notes a "hot spot" in Antarctica.
		Weyland uses his money and influence to very quickly put together a top notch investigative team, led by environmentalist and ice expert Alexa "Lex" Woods (Sanaa Lathan) and archeologist Sebastian DeRosa (Raoul Bova).
		Although his efforts as Weyland are a little subdued, at the same time he's all too apparently fixated on making this discovery for himself.

		Weyland intends to be the first person down there since other people will likely notice it before long.
		Back in the tunnel, things are moving slowly when suddenly Weyland slips and starts sliding past everyone -- past troopers Verheiden and Connors, past Sebastian and Thomas, and almost past Lex, until she brings her pickaxe down at the last second through his hood, barely saving his life (and barely scalping him too, I imagine).
		The Predator puts Weyland down and heads for Lex and Sebastian but is...distracted...when Weyland turns a flare and a snowgun into a flamethrower, which gets him the attention he wanted and kills him in the process.

		When Charles Bishop Weyland is sitting in his office on the ship, we can very briefly see him playing with his pen in a similar manner to the way the android Bishop (also played by Lance Henriksen) is playing with a knife in Aliens (1986).
		The scene in which Weyland's team discovers the sacrificial chamber inside the pyramid was originally longer than seen in the theatrical cut.
		Weyland's satellite is shot in a way that it resembles the frontal section of the Sulaco ship, from Aliens.

		Hell, in a nod to appeasing irate fanboys everywhere, you even had Bishop (um, Lance Henrikson) cast in the film (as billionaire Charles Weyland) and afterwards he was singing your praises all over the place, talking about what an awesome movie AVP was going to be.
		Problem is, this unknown temple deep beneath the ice is actually an ancient Predator hunting ground where young Predators go to test themselves against, you got it, Aliens, and the humans have unwittingly awoken a Queen within the temple.
		Then there are the weird logic/continuity errors (some Predator weapons melt from the Aliens’ acid blood, some don’t) and the fact that having Aliens on Earth betrays the integrity of the Alien series (as AVP takes place before Alien, chronologically).

		So, Weyland Industries may have no choice but to believe Lex's story about the fate of the expedition on the grounds of the evidence provided by the orbiting satelite.
		So Weyland Industries would be very much aware that Lex's account of the expedition would have some credibility.
		Weyland Industries would have to take her testament seriously and backed up by the satelite evidence ahe at least stands some credibility.

		Anyone who is an Alien and/or Predator buff would know that Weyland (Lances' charachter) was the origional corporation (leader in computer technology and robotics) that sent Ripley to the first planet in Alien, in an attempt to capture the Alien and create the perfect "weapon".
		Weyland also created the Bishop androids in his image, that's why he's everywhere.
		But there had to be a beginning to the Weyland Corporation and that's basically where AVP comes in.
