Produced and sort of directed by Robert Rodriguez.

Lots of potential here, good and bad. I liked the original.

Sorry if R, I searched.

Holy crap -- this is one remake I wouldn't mind seeing.

The original with Arnold was awesome...definitely up there with my all-time favorite action flicks. Predator 2 with Danny Glover, not so much. Hopefully this isn't worse than #2.

After AvP, I can't believe any predator or alien movie is going to be particularly good.

I'd go see it

Maybe the new one will have more dancing predators. :awe:

I don't know how you coud improve on the first Predator.

It is just about the perfect sci-fi/horror cheese, right down to the Native-American character who is "one with nature" and seems to "accept" his fate.

Leave it alone.

yeah, #2 was pretty forgettable.

The original Predator was nearly perfect. Predator 2 was junk, and AvP was forgettable. This remake will be garbage and decidedly worse than the original.

I dunno, the first Predator had Arnold and Jesse Ventura, this shit is going to have Topher Grace and Adrien Brody, WTF.

you just can't fuck with classics like this. predator was the shit when i was a kid. please don't take this away like they did transformers, that's my childhood these asses are messing with!

 

[ShockwaveVT]

Robert Rodriguez being attached the project gives me a more optimistic outlook on it. Still don't think any reboot/remake can top the original.

I remember in the early 90s Predator would be on TV every week. It would usually run from about 8 pm to past my bed time and I use to beg my parents to let me stay up and watch it on a school night because I'd never seen the ending. I didn't understand how much the TV version was cutting out until I rented it one time; the movie is so much better unedited seeing Carl Weathers get shredded and Bill Duke's head explode on top of the camera.

i feel your pain my brotha, i feel your pain. R.I.P. another 80's classic.

Hollywood is nearing its death.

I dunno...I thought War of Worlds was a good 'remake' or is it 're-envisioning'.

 

[Arkaign]

AVP was beyond terribad. Original Predator is a classic good time, and P2 was meh, but could have been worse.

Just got back from the premiere... I thought it was pretty good. Maybe not as good as the original, but better than 2 or avp.

Without doing a spoiler, it's definitely meant as a sequel to the first movie, not a re-do.

Come on!! Kill me!!! I'm 'ere!!!

 

[logo908]

looks like total shit but i might end up seeing it

 

[gigahertz20]

I'm really hoping they don't fuck this up, I'm digging the R rating, not some PG-13 kiddy shit.

The original Predator with Arnold is one of my all time favorites.
