Considering the upcoming releases of the new Alien-Predator comics, some of the writers have opted not to treat the AvP films as canon for their story, but what is Fox's stance on the AvP movies? Are they a canonical side-story or alternate universe in regards to the newer films (PREDATORS and Prometheus) and new comics as far as Fox is concerned?

Does Amanda Ripley from Alien: Isolation have anything to do with the new Alien comics that are to be releasing soon?

When you still had the Star Wars license, and of course still possessed the rights to the Alien-Predator franchises how come no Star Wars vs Alien-Predator crossovers ever came about?

I agree, it would have been interesting to see such a crossover.

A lot of fans of the Alien-Predator franchises feel that the overall Expanded Universe (Video Games included) continuity is discombobulated. Some even say there are alternate timelines or universes, others say just different continuities and liken it a Choose Your Adventure Book.

How would you describe continuity as far as Alien-Predator goes, especially how some stories go off in different directions than others?
