Man, I was so excited when I saw that trailer....its actually a pretty horrible Trailer. But the violence.....s
But the worst part was THAT WAS ALL the gore scenes in the movie.....every single one. How horrible.
It feels better to let it out doesn't it slug.
its like they new it was ^^^^ but spent alot of money on it so decided to release it anyway, which really woudnt surprise me.
it does actually
it just ticks me off how this film ever got out into the cinema, it dosent take a genious to see how awful this film was, even the guys at fox probably coulde see it
blah i feel like celticp, but it feels good to have a nerd rant once in a while
, slap on aliens in the vhs after school with a few buddies sorted (taped off the tv of course) i loved it. i love all 4 aliens films and both the predators. 
makes me a sad panda. the woes of a fan
I htink you just about nailed it there...AvP-R was a fan-film (The Strausses were fans 1st, filmmakers 2nd) only with a much bigger budget.
u know what i say? stop trying to up the ante. stop trying to "top" the last movie. more is NOT always more.
one of the very few guys who can pull off the "more is more" credo is james cameron, and u can forget abt him dipping his hands in the predator franchise. he's got bigger, and newer worlds to conquer.
i say, keep the new predator SEQUEL (yes, i still think it should be a damn sequel) to ONE predator, and have him go back to ONLY doing what his entire culture is about: hunting for sport. and give him WORTHY prey. we don't necessarily need a military unit as his targets, just some tough, resourceful badasses.
i've always wondered what it'd be like if we saw a predator hunting big game in africa. literally on safari. only this time, his prey includes the legendary masai tribesmen, who've been known to take down a lion with just a spear and some smarts. maybe even throw in a great white hunter or two. yeah, this would be a period piece, set in the early 1900's. where u can strip the technology away from the humans, and have them rely on their OWN hunting instincts and cunning. sure, it'd be pretty lopsided, but that would create a great opportunity for smartly-written characters, and not cardboard cut-out cannon fodder.
that's my 2cents' worth. and if this premise has been featured in some dark horse comic or fan fic, my apologies. it'll be merely a coincidence.

yeah, it was called "1718". it was really short, though. probably why it was one of the few good predator stories.
