I thought it was great, its just like the first film in many ways. Morpheus from matrix is in it which I thought was going to ruin the hole film as I think he is only good for playing matrix style leads, Anyway his Character didnt bother me for to long:d

 

Has anyone else seen it yet?

was VERY disapointed, they should just stop there with predator movies none of them can be compared to how amazing predator 1 was! i liked it how they where using some quates from the first movie and the song at the end! i just thought some of the deaths where crap and what was with the "new" type of predator was gash! there was some decent bits but nothing to what i was expecting it to be

I just went in expecting it to be crap so with that mindset it's hard to be disappointed :)

Yeah I dont like them adding new predator's that ruined it abit for me but I Like how they are using new technology for example our own technology is growing so advanced and so is the Predators so I think they get away with the predators having new weapons ect.

 

Remember on the new film when that Black guy is looking into the Jungle cause he seen something and the girl is stood next to him, well all that scene is the exact same (including words spoken) as the first film where billy and schwarzenegger and doing the same thing. Also I love the way the chinese guy goes that parts abit like when billy dies in the first one too.

When watching the film it mentions they hunt in 3's, I thought well how does he get all them sights on him then........ But it never happened.

Going to see this tomorrow - looking forward to it.

 

As for AVP 1 and 2 - I thought AVP 1 was one of the worst movies I had ever seen and turned the Predators into pussy's. It had no saving grace.

 

The second movie at least redeemed the Predator somewhat as just one of them managed to kill a whole lot of Aliens which is what I would expect a Predator to do.

Probably be going to see this with my father in law at some point.

 

As for the many tri-dots - 1 tri-dot thing, it's actually quite a good idea, changing a trailer from the film - most people say the best clips are in the trailers so the films are always pants! As long as they don't change it too much and make the films completely different of course! :D

OK is still better than that sh*ckingly sh*te excuse for a film dubbed AvP1. I put it down alongside Starship Troopers 2. Predators are double-hard b*stards. While humans are running arround screaming getting done in by (quite usually) a single alien (ref: Alien, Alien 3), the Preds would hunt these things for sh*ts and giggles all before breakfast. To have 2 predators skull f*cked by the aliens in AvP1 was just rediculous. The script was also ripped ever so slightly from one of the AvP comics, too. There is a homage to this fact, when you see the main Pred - he's missing a 'tusk.' Refers to the main Pred protagenist in the comic/books - Broken Tusk. Anyway, showing my geek side once again. Also which crack head thought having a pyramid...buried 2km under thick ice... made by incans, myans and aztecs...was a good idea? Why put it in the, keep it in the jungle. In a cave. On inaccessable plateau - something at least vaguely believable!

 

I've got mixed feelings about the new Pred movie. It's a remake. Would it really have required that much more effort to come up with a fresh story line? The original with Arnie is still awesome today - why do it again? I mean, you have the perfect ending to AvP2 which screams sequel and this Pred movie has come along first!

 

I do want to watch it, but I'll probably end up getting the DVD.

IMHO the original Predator and Aliens the directors cut are two of the greatest movies ever to hit the screens, Alien was also good and had a great shock factor.

 

All others have been pants in comparison, the AVP series are just shockingly bad and the latter Alien movies were also complete garbage.

 

I am not holding high hopes for this but hope to be suprised, is it an R18?
