I'd like to see a psychological thriller revolving around a single member from each species. No Wey-Yu bullshit about "CREW EXPENDABLE SURPRISE!" *, no Xeno asspulls about being a special specimen with a designated ID #**, no prophecy-Predator destined to fight for justice ***- just two assholes and a physically inferior yet intelligent human scrapping in a factory or something. Giger drone vs. Jungle Hunter vs. Newt, basically. None of them were destined for anything, they just happened to be the ones involved in their respective stories, and it worked. Now, I dunno if it'd still work when mixed together like that, but the standard AVP story has become completely unintereting at this point.
*Which actually could work if it wasn't used as an excuse in every goddamn piece of media in the franchise.
**It's become a parody of itself at this point, and it inspires every new member's backstory for some reson.
***This happens way too much and only glorifies the whole "honor" thing even more.
