What AvP is missing was Batman showing up and kicking some ass. Check out this short film here (it really is Batman, Alien, and the Preditor, I'm not joking):

I saw that film at Trek Expo 2004 in Tulsa this past June. Man, it was good. There's a scene that has nothing directly to do with the action but sums up the hero-noir feel of Batman perfectly: as he slowly stands up from a crouching position in the rain, his wide-spead cape draws inward and upward. The effect is that of a shadow becoming human...and I don't think any special effects were involved, just good direction and good choreography. Wish we had more of that now-a-days.
