I would like to see a movie based on the Predators point of view. Their species are basically big game hunters going from planet to planet on safari hunting the apex life form. I would like to see a movie where the Predator goes to a planet expecting to hunt one type of apex predator but turns out their intel was wrong, it is another apex life form where their weapons are wholly inadequate to combat them. Kind of like the scene in Aliens vs. Predators on top of the pyramid.

Little kids ruin any action movie they are in. I'll stick with the original.

None of them are nearly bulky enough to be compared to the original cast.

The actors in the new Predator do not remotely capture the veresimilitude (real word, look it up) of real Special Forces type soldiers.

See that's the brilliance of it. Remember the line from the first: "Leave it. He didn't kill you because you weren't armed. No sport."

If I had to select a team to go predator hunting, I'd probably go with the cast of Glee. I mean the most emaciated, mangy, pajama wearing crew of beta bitches unworthy of filling a trophy case! We are witnessing genius level 4D chess at work here gentlemen!

The bottom pic looks like it could be a legit special forces team from the 70s/80s/90s, just like the "serious" pic from Tropic Thunder looked like a legit Vietnam era pic.  


The top pic looks like a college Trump protest, with random guns thrown in.

This. Only way I see this being redeemed is if this cast is shown to be as hopelessly inept as they look and ALL of them die horribly and quickly which leaves the rest of the movie to be shown from the predators perspective as it hunts for an actual challenge.

Not enough black guys and kids. Hey, everyone remember the Total Recall sequel? Yeah, no one does because it was fucking ghey.

Olivia Munn trying to act again? Well, that's not a good sign either.

I wouldn't pay money to see this diahrea for all the tea in China.

Yeah, that looks more "Hollywood HSLD" than "military." I 100% bought the original cast in their roles. Hell, I think that's half of what made the movie. PERFECT casting for each character. This crew? Nope.

This is retarded.  Plus, I'm still pissed about Will Smith and the ruined 3rd screen adaptation of I Am Legend.

We could easily have a better, more convincing, more capable, more entertaining cast from ARFCOM.

ETA: Hey, on the bright side maybe Red Letter Media will rip the fuck out of it and it will be hilarious.

Spoiler alert:

The kid will make it...probably a really smart troubled kid from a broken home.  Olivia will kill the Predator thanks to an act of selflessness by one of the black guys...just as a relationship was building between him and Olivia.  The middle aged white guy will be a stooge who dies quickly, and the metro white guy will be lamenting how he's going to miss his partner Pedro right before the Predator kills him.

The Predator will be portrayed as extra mean and his shoulder thingie will make a noise that sounds like: "yuuuge, yuuuge" when it goes off, and it's tentacle hair will appear blondish and almost comb-overish at times.  

A hispanic guy named Gonzalez will be flying the helicopter for the evac, and the military CO back in DC will be a dapper and daring leader named Mohammed.

Me either. But I would agree with most people here if the original starred Harold Ramis and Bill Murray! Some actors just don't fit parts, most of the ones pictured don't fit the part. The Key comedian guy? WTF? Imagine the original with Bill Murray instead of Arnold.

Not encouraging but I'll still probably watch it more than once when it hits cable.  John Wick 2 is the first movie I've went to the theater for in years.  I don't need much to justify watching a shitty move while cleaning guns or holding my balls.  Olivia Munn and predators running around will do just fine.

Short of the first Alien movie none of them have been particularly good films.  But I grew up with the storyline, and just like whatever version of Die Hard they make, eventually I will watch it.  And probably enjoy it even if it's shitty.

But I still enjoy things even if there's shit in them I think is stupid.  I've got another 20 years or so (I hope) before becoming completely disgruntled.
