Anyone seen the new trailer for The Predator? Looks kind of interesting. May be a good reboot.

No but im gonna check it out.. I love the Predator, I'd like to see them pick up from the 1st one.
2nd one was kinda stupid.
The AVP movies had great potential but they really f'ed them up in execution.
In the AVP games it was explained the predator had a honor code.. if you followed it you got to unlock more weapons, stim paks, etc The more hands on the more points you got, Killing while cloaked was considered dishonorable. I'd Like to see this carry forward into future movies, You kinda see a bit of the honor code being followed in Pred1, And 2.. like not killing the unarmed, but he tended to kill cloaked with that shoulder cannon a fair bit more than he should have.
Im not sure if old Arnold is up for the task.. I love his movies and im sure he could still whip my 「bum-bum」 blind folded on his kness with one hand. But man he's getting up there in age.. Would be cool if he had a part though.. passing the torch.

They've even made a Magnum P.I. movie (Spoilers: no 'stache) I'd heard of Predator being done, can't see how the lead will beat Arnie. But Magnum P.I. you have got to be kidding. Next you'll tell me they're rebooting Star Wars...

Just watched the trailer, I dunno.. Hard to say, if it's all action it will actually suck in my book, I want suspense in between fights, I want good dialog, That means not throwing in cheezy jokes and bravao 1 liners every other scene, I want a good cast.
1st pred had suspense.. it had good dialog, it had a diverse cast.. If anything they could have probably dragged another 20-30 mins out of that film. I think some of the team got killed a mite quick.
I really would have loved to seen the fight with Billy at the bridge even though you knew he was gonna loose.
2nd one was ok.. didn't think it had a very good story though.
I guess they're calling "predators" the 3rd movie.. I happen to just watch that again last week.. it's mostly action.. seemed like their could have been a story there and yet details wasn't filled in.. shame.
We'll see how this one turns out.. could go either way but I bet it ain't as good as the 1st.

2nd one was ok.. didn't think it had a very good story though. I thought the 2nd was really good. Completely different take on what would happen in a different scenario. top notch cast in the second as well. The most annoying part being the repeated line "It's my specialty". Also finding a major weakness to the predators.
If you hear one about, arm the pregnant women!

Just had a look at the 1987 Predator trailer and found this very true comment below it:
"They had it the right way round in the 80's... Terrible trailers and great films, now we have great trailers and crap films!"
100% accurate.

But Magnum P.I. you have got to be kidding. Next you'll tell me they're rebooting Star Wars... i read awhile back that TroubleMaker studios wanted to bring Ahrnold back for the Predator films, was to be loosely based on the comic story line where Arnold's(Dutch) brother went looking for him. it was supposed to take place a decade after the first Predator. also another Twins movie no word if Danny Devitto would be in it. wouldn't mind another Throw Moma from the Train or Kindergarten Cop movie really wanted to vote for him when he ran an Won California governership, but i couldn't since i'am not a resident of California. i mean come on the man killed a Predator an Thulsa Doom aka Darth vader, who else can say that. fun fact: did you know the first Predator was Jean Cluade (VAN DAMMAGE) Van Damme in a weird Ant eater looking alien suite.

Ya first suit was a joke, Van Dam couldn't handle the heat of the jungle in the suit and another guy I think his name was peter hall took his place. He get's a cameo outside the suit as the chopper pilot at the end.. he did the 1st 2 movies, He later died of HIV he contracted from blood transfusion iirc.
