* In Aliens, Frost is the first major character to go, and Apone isn't far behind him. It's notable in that it's the only entry in the entire series, including Alien vs. Predator, to play this trope straight. The other films have a tradition where the black dude is the last to die in a (attempted) Heroic Sacrifice.
* In Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem, a group of five high school students (including one black student) is ambushed by an Alien inside the high school. Guess which one the Alien kills first.

Wrong. Both counts.

Frost didn't die first, the colonists did. 2, The highschool students didn't die first. The predator died first, then some guys dad who was hunting with his son, then 2 hobos who were white.

Watch the films more.
