I don't think it's necessarily a reboot. It's just doing the "Aliens" thing in that it's a sequel, but instead of having "3" at the end, they just make it plural.BlueHighwind said:
Sneak Peak of New Predator Movie

Pleaaase be good. Since they are making it as something of a reboot I'm hoping they can impress.
Looks good actually. Good thing they didn't try to just remake the first one, and are going a different rout.
Besides, Predator 2 sucked. Forgetting that movie was ever made is a good idea.
So predator hunting dogs? Interesting. Some of the choices implied by this are interesting.
In the first movie it was obvious that everyone but Arnold and the chick were red shirts. They fleshed them out anyway, which was good, but it was stupid to think that it would not be whittled down to just Arnold before the end, and that Arnold would live. In this, they seem to be trying to keep you guessing as to who will live. I hope they don't just play against cliche like in Deep Blue Sea where people died and lived when you weren't expecting it. Here they seem to be keeping the team together with each member of equal importance. That could add some suspense.
Hopefully it pays off, but we'll see in July.

Still, I've been looking forward to this for a while, and this didn't disappoint. Has some really great potential, and hopefully it turns out good.
There's a way I can help you avoid that. Watch Uwe Boll's BloodRayne 3 (Yes, someone's giving this man money to make another movie) right before you see this. Your expectations will be so condierably lower that this movie could not dissapoint.Wasder said:

I rented Alone in the Dark to finally get around to watching a Uwe Boll movie. My gf at the time rented Doogal, which is known as Magic Roundabaout everywhere else. The American version is much, much worse than the European version. We watched Doogal first and it was so bad that Alone in the Dark was enjoyable by comparison.
sounds like an interesting return to the series roots. And Lawrence Fishburne is just the cherry on top.
At first I was apprehensive about this movie. Topher Grace being in it sort of put me off.
Foreman vs Predator, I thought. And I brushed it off like that.
Then, I saw it was being made by Robert Rodriguez, maker of awesome zombie film Planet Terror! And then, Lawrence Fishbourne was revealed to be in it. And then, it was revealed that Topher Grace was playing an office type, giving three options.
1 - He gets killed by the Preds early on for comedic effect.
2 - He is an asshole who the rest of the humans kill for being a conniving prick.
3 - He survives throughout most of the movie and turns into a survivor.
I'm really hoping for the first two to happen.

What I mean is that while in the first movie, the alien was pretty much an unstoppable force that stuck to the shadows, and no one even saw it until it was to late. In Aliens they were basically cannon fodder the entire movie, and seemed to have lost all their stealth instincts (for the most part)Quesa said:
I like how the title is in plural.
imma perdy excited.
Although, I would like the predators to have the same look they had in the first Alien vs. Predator movie. 'twas the most badass predators I have ever seen, and possibly the most badass characters/creatures I have ever seen in any movie or game.

They really screwed both franchises when they made the AvP movies; two of the worst movies ever. A new Alien film is coming and a new Predator, might be ok. I like that Ridley Scott is doing the Alien film again. Robert Rodriquez doing Predators? Could be worse, I guess.
