I downloaded the "I Touch Myself" vid and I couldn't bear to play it all the way through! The visuals were fun; but the horrible noise when the pop-ups appeared wrecked it for me. I want to hear the Divinyls, not "pop! pop!".

Most of the Predator back-story and culture in "Alien vs Predator" first appeared in the novel "Prey" by Steve and Stephani Perry. For a movie spin-off novel (usually a dire idea) it is quite staggeringly good. The relationship between Scar and Alexa in the movie is a pale and disappointing shadow of the beautifully touching Sensei/pupil relationship between the old Predator master Dachande (aka Broken Tusk) and Machiko Noguchi (named "Da'dtou-di", or "small female knife", by Dachande) in the book. The good bits of the AvP movie were ripped off from the book; the bad bits weren't.
