Well you should be happy he's not directing it kid.
Looks cool to me thus far.
Robert's directing credentials speak for themselves, and an actor of Adrian's caliber is due for a mold-breaking role.
And------it's rated R. That alone means the potential for this film is off the charts compared to the previous Predator sequels.
Hey, imagine that!--contrarian king CBF himself Hater of All Things Remake actually seeing an au ious light in a sequel of a movie he holds dear.....

yeah Nimrod Antal is directing, RR is only the Producer
This is one of those movies where you don't ask why it's being made, just sit and enjoy. There is no way I'm missing this, although, if ONE predator wiped out an entire team of special op commandoes on Earth, how ing hard could it be for multiple predators on their own planet hunting a bunch of criminals?
Let's consider this: team of special op commandoes >>>>>> random badass criminals; one predator on earth <<<<<< multiple predators on own planet
Looks like a blowout in this fight
Ahnold only won cause the predator got y and took off his . Even with the element of surprise, I'd still take the team of commandoes with tons of gear against one predator instead of unorganized criminals with swords and sniper rifles (what ing good is the sniper rifle?!) against multiple predators
so is anyone going to see this opening day/weekend? I'm seeing it at the midnight screening?
"I'm Ron Burgundy?"
Sincerely,

Went and saw this one today. Good times.
I saw this movie and it was good but I still missed Arnold. As a matter of fact the best part was when someone yelled out "Run!! Go!! Get to da Choppa!!" as someone was fleeing. Everyone was laughing and smiling.

i heard it sucked.
How can you all go watch this crap!?!? Well, I understand, this kind of bs is hard to avoid to these days.
i don't know what it is but the predator was in full control when he decided to remove his mask and present his muscles to impose on ahnold's ego, his invisible camouflage was damaged not his vision.
obviously you guys haven't seen Predator or Predator 2 because they show that the predators have a form of honor and fairness if they find a worthy opponent, it is part of the mythology. Reason why the Elder Predator in Predator 2 hands Glover the pistol.
The scene in Predator where he takes off his helmet and shoulder cannon was shown to prove these creatures aren't always sadistic, methodical killers/hunters.

I don't know what it is but I know
the movie was actually really good up until the end, then it was rushed. Not sure if that had to do with the low budget (around 30 -40 million). Even though the ending was rushed the acting was really good.
Im not going to go see this movie for the acting or polish....
Im going to see it for the death and action scenes.... period. I could care less if they where speaking Manderin the entire movie, as long as someone or something dies in a glorious, blood splattering way.
@ anyone who goes to see a Predator movie expecting to be intelectually stimulated.
Not directing this at anyone, just laying out my opinion before the inevitable jackwad comes in here all high and mighty nit-picking little things from the movie.
that's funny i heard almost the same exact thing from someone earlier
they said they liked everything but the ending
7.9 on imdb
It really is the truth, the movie prior to the ending had perfect pacing. If the the final couple of scenes would have been spaced out and maybe 5 to 10 minutes longer this film would have been 9/10, right now it is 7 to 8 / 10. Brody did a great job in the film (not that I ever doubted an Academy award winner).
And to the @phyzik "anyone who goes to see a Predator movie expecting to be intelectually stimulated." Acting and how lines are delivered are what make a movie. The main problems with the AVP films was that the acting was terrible.
Sure a movie can have awesome fight scenes and cool special effects but if the actors don't play their parts correctly or if scenes run on too long, too short it ruins those "cool" parts of the film.
Hence why I never go see movies in 3D, it is just a gimmick, plus you are too occupied and distracted by everything jumping at your face that don't get a chance to realize if the film is actually good or not. And more than half the time movies that are shown in 3D weren't film with the intent to be in 3D, so the shots in the film don't work in that format.
I personally wouldn't go so far as to say that I didn't like the ending, but I'd definitely agree that it feels a bit out of step with the rest of the film. Didn't ruin the overall experience for me, though.
Yeah, it isn't that I didn't like how the movie ended just wished it was extended 5 to 10 minutes more. (Part of this also might have been due to a short filming schedule)
Some other issues, I wished the 3-4 main confrontations/fights with the predators at the end weren't consecutive, and more spread throughout the film.
Also I had some technical issues with some of the sounds they used for the predators, which weren't very "predator" like.
Of course the midnight screening I went to was packed and I've been hearing the same thing from other theaters around the US and over seas so it shouldn't take much for this movie to make back its budget of 40 million.
I'm going to see it again sometime to see if some of these issues still bother me (I might have been too tired and over thinking some stuff at the midnight screening).
It did. It was just a bunch of bull . They are ruining the franchise. I had some decent hopes because they used the original music from the first and second Predators, but it was just a tease.
For starters as everyone said, they are continually making the Predators weaker and weaker.
Predator - an elite special forces crew can't take him out and only by all his strength is the last man standing, who happens to be the best out of all of them, able to defeat the Predator.
Predator 2 - a cop, who is far below any special forces major, is able to take out a Predator, and as before only using all his powers is he able to.
Alien vs Predator - a ing woman, who isn't even in the military or in any form of weapons training is able to survive to the end. What a joke.
Requiem - never saw this trash
Predators - 3...count them 3 ing Predators can't take out a group of 8 individuals, 4 of whom are actual soldiers, one is a damn convict, and the other is a ing doctor! Give me a break. They just continually destroy the damn franchise with every successive movie.
The other thing that absolutely annoyed me from Predators, and this is more of a general criticism of recent movies in general, whether sequels or remakes, is too much ing homage. Every damn scene is an homage to the original or an earlier movie. Case in point...the scene where the Yakuza guy stops takes his shirt off and pulls out his sword to fight a Predator while the other guys go ahead. A direct rip off/homage/whatever you wanna call it to Predator when Billy/Sonny Landham does the exact thing.
It was good. Ignore the crybaby above me.
I love how people cry about the realism of science fiction movies. There is NO WAY a guy like Brody could kill a predator!!!!!!!!
Its a science fiction movie. Suspend disbelief for awhile.
