  • After Lex catches Miller exploring the abandoned whaling station on his own, she can't resist teasing him about being startled by a penguin.
    Lex: Careful. They bite.
  • When the team finds the Predators' shoulder cannons. Stafford isn't very happy that the experts in archeology brought on the mission specifically to identify any strange or unusual artifacts can't identify the cannons.
    • For his part, Miller can't help but quip.
      Miller: Well, yeah, it is a good thing, cos' this is like finding Moses' DVD collection.
  • While moving through the pyramid looking for Scar (the surviving Predator), Alexa jokingly asks Sebastian "How do you say 'scared shitless' in Italian?" He answers with "Non vedo l'ora di uscire da questa piramide con te, perché mi sto cagando addosso... More or less."
    • Translated, that means "I can't wait to get out of this pyramid with you, because I'm shitting myself."
  • When a chestburster leaps out at Scar, he merely catches it and snaps its teeny neck. The way he shuffles his shoulders, the body language wordlessly says "That's right, I'm bad."
  • The expression on Scar's face after the Alien Queen survives his use of It's the Only Way to Be Sure. He doesn't actually say "You Have GOT to Be Kidding Me!," but he might as well have.
    • Earlier, his miming to Lex with his hand "when this device goes off, BOOM..."
  • In the novelization, Lex's reaction to Scar starting to strip off his body armor in front of her.
    Lex: Whoa, slow down, tiger.
    • Especially funny when she ponders about Scar having his own masculine temper, belonging to the "strong, silent type".
  • The DVD commercials for AVP: Requiem, showcasing the Xenomorph and the Predator "battling" in a ping-pong match, arguing over who ate a piece of cake, a poker match, a match over the last pizza slice, who gets to take a shower, and even playing soccer.
  • From the Alien vs. Predator 2 video game, the early Marine missions are filled with tension. You're exploring an abandoned colony complex, not unlike the one from Aliens, with signs everywhere that Xenomorphs got loose and rampagey. You're separated from the rest of your squad, wandering through the dark, alone, but can still hear them on your comms (though you can't respond.) Acid burns and damage are everywhere, indicating one hell of a fight. Then, you hear over your radio:
    Random Marine: No way, somebody tell me that's just a boot, that better be a boot!
    Random Marine: Hey! It's a boot!
  • A deleted scene from the first movie is actually called "Predator Humor". When Scar is taking apart the xenomorph to make Lex a weapon, he gestures for her to come close. Slowly he drags his knife down the Alien's exposed brain, then jabs an area, making the alien's mouth-tongue shoot out, startling Lex. Scar doesn't laugh out loud, but his body language is enough to tell that he's very pleased with himself.
