Alien vs. Predator - Timeline

unfortunately there dont seem to be any timeline indicators in this for the comic itself or the movie
 
According to a recent interview with Dan T the movie seems to take place sometime after Alien Resurrection. That movie does say Weyland Yutani was bought out by Walmart but apparently the book Sea of Sorrows established that they reform as a company at some point. Maybe it can be placed sometime after that book?

definitely i just meant more of a specific year, which the movie doesnt give us at all
 
I do like the placement for the movie though. Seems like the best place, let's the established EU have a chance to continue to exist. Lots of later EU stories from the short story collections imply that people know the Predators are out there so it kinda works
 
He actually said that he did it to avoid contradicting Fede and Noah's works on Alien: Romulus and Alien: Earth. He added the Weyland-Yutani eye as a nod to the former, in fact.

In other words...
ALIEN: EARTH IS CANON!
 
I know a lot of people are saying otherwise, but really, the show doesn't have any contradictions. The one it does have is easily explainable because AVP is canon, too.
