The Predator - September 13th/14th
 

The original was the best.



I've watched it probably 100 times but I haven't seen it in ages ...wonder how it holds up?

the original predator was so kick ass that it will be very very hard to make a movie that even comes close...I saw the trailer of the new one and I am like "meh"...

Yes not to the mention how sound of trailer sounds same like in thousand other trailers.

oh, i remember the first movie, i was 5yo or so :P

It's still good. It shows up on AMC every month or so and I end up watching it every time. Even though they horribly censor it for tv.

Bite me.

Could have done without that.

Now to my comments.

My brother has a Life size statue of the Predator. It was scaled from the movie so its about 11 feet tall. Very fine detail. Have no idea where he got it.

ill watch it

I like Chris Hanson...

I was underwhelmed by that paint by numbers trailer. I was not whelmed whatsoever.

The orginal Predator was lightining in a bottle. You had that amazing cast lead by Arnold in his prime. The natural commeradery between soldiers of fortune. The director of Die Hard. The music by Alan Silverstri . The brilliantly staged action scenes. The fucking minigun scene. Now we have....this movie starring some guy and Olivia Munn.

I was watching it recently and my wife got sucked in. At some point she literally said "this is a good fucking movie. Why haven't I ever seen this?"

Predator is my favorite movie.

I just rewatched Predator 2 the other week and I haven’t seen it since I was a kid. Still excellent.

Predators with Adrian Brody is awesome. Very well done. I have to say pretty bad ass. Predator vs Aliens franchise is also quality shit. The whole storyline is amazing.

I am not a science fiction dork. But I just love these movies.

I’d say the only thing I can think is that this movie still holds weight. Storyline, actors, testosterone, guns. Still bad ass. A small group of mercenaries set behind the line on a covert C.I.A. mission. It’s not in the desert, or some stupid “I have unlimited resources” movie with a political twist. You can’t find these movies anymore. I was probably 6 or 7 when it came out. Everyone wanted to be these bad asses. Guns, cigars, creeping around the jungle.

i will go see it about time they did a predator film

The original with Arnie was the best one. All the other ones including the Robert Rodriguez reboot sucked. "Alien vs Predator" was just terrible.

Hmm, I'll give it a chance.

AVP was not such bad, I mean the first one, the second was like a prom night horror comedy.

It's a shame, but I've never seen the original one from the beginning to the end.

Predator I and II were both excellent, Predator was the first movie with Arnold that I saw in cinema as a kid. I like how the Predator II was put into whole different settings and had some exciting script and an excellent cast.

Nothing from the follow ups comes nowhere close to it. Anybody else finds CGI ruining just about every movie these days? Never got used to it.

I miss the original Stan Winston's school of motion tricks, looked much more realistic to me.

Yes i find it same how CGI is ruining movies, i think CGI should be strictly for things which are too complicated to made like space objects, ground objects , environments and similar while characters should be done by dolls.

I aint got time to bleed.

So many quotable lines in Predator.

"There's something out there waiting for us, and it ain't no man."

"If it bleeds, we can kill it."

and of course, "get to the choppa!!!!"
