Amph In Town With a Few Days to Kill: The Prey-dator Discussion Thread

I would be okay with a movie where the Predator slaughters every single human character.

 

Looks like predator 5 starts shooting In may.

 

I guess they have to give it a subtitle or a number cuz they've literally had Predator, Predators and The Predator. Unless they call this The Predators. Or maybe it'll just be called Skulls...? Nah, Predator: Skulls kinda works.

 

Predator: you don’t stand a chance

 

So went through a Predator (and 2 AvP!) rewatch on Disney Plus Star, one thing that actually comes out when you watch Predators and The Predator back 2 back is that the Predators evolving and upgrading themselves and the inter-Predator war shows up in Predators first and then is elaborated on in The Predator so maybe a coincidence but it actually compliments each other well. And I like to think the Predator blaster taken at the end of AvP:R is the one that they have in the compound in The Predator that the hero uses. (edit: also just found a link to the screenwriter of The Predator describing the original ending and how they had nothing to do with the final scene)

Anyway, there's actually a lawsuit by the original "Hunter" screenwriters to get the rights back from Disney, even though Disney is saying they're currently still using The Predator rights and making a new movie. I was wondering, watching Predator 2 (one of the best shots in the series is in that movie when the Predator is stomping in the water and the lighting sparks from it's camouflage, really great, someone use that bit again) if the old timey spin-off prequel will delve into this weapon that Harrigan is given at the end of the film



Apparently there's a comic about that but I'd be cool if the new movie connects to that bit.

 

@Ender Sai read the above post, record yourself reading the above post, post the recording to YouTube, post the link to the said recording here. And you are absolved, My Son.

 

I had a stroke by line 2 just preparing for how i'd read it. No absolution for me, it seems.

 

Good luck going against Disney, being realistic they don’t have a chance.

 

Disney seems to wanna do stuff with Predator. The Lawyer these guys got only sucesseed cause nightmare and Friday the 13th didn't really have studios that want to do anything with the ips

 

I really liked her in Legion so excited to see what she can do in the lead of this movie

 

She's aces in Legion, there's a S2 fight scene she has which is just amazing. Really looking forward to it even more now.

 

For those looking for a more nuanced performance, I've been enjoying her in the Roswell reboot on The CW as well.

 

This sounds amazing.

 

They’ve done well to get the chance to make another one because I felt that the last one would kill the franchise off, it was that bad.

 

I really liked the action in the last one, but I must admit even though they were good the characters where not what I’d expect from a predator movie and generally felt out of place.

then again I’m pretty keen for this franchise to step away from the commandos in a jungle thing that it’s done twice now.

 

A small amount of info dropped today.

I must say this franchise has proven before it needs to be a film for more mature audience, hopefully it won’t be watered down again.

 

Hulu exclusive was another headline I saw there which like 90% means it would also be Disney Plus Star, if it happens to go to streaming. If anything it would have a franchise tentpole flick on Hulu/D+Star

 

Hello

Cool thread, think ill follow

I have an idea for a predator film

Basically the survivurs of predator 3 film arrive at area 51 in a space ship. They meet the characters from predator 4. Cameos include Arnold and glover. Need a say more, cause that's all I got

This new film could be alright I guess
