Robert Rodriguez's PREDATORS Movie Thread - SPOILERS

[thenammagazine]

I have no answers because I think they look fine. i find it funny that there are going to be people now saying "The heads are too small." When the AVP and P2 Predators all you heard was "The heads are too friggin big. They look like bobble heads!!"

Spoiled little brats always need something to _____ about? Man sometimes this place is worse than the Star Wars threads.

When something's bad people always say " nearly worse that the star wars threads ".
I rarely ever go into a star wars thread on this forum , is there a specific example of how bad it can get ?.

Exactly what i was expecting from this movie.

Its so cool how you totally have your own opinion. You say thats what you were expecting, already bashing it, without even having seen it.
That kind of prejudice is beginning to annoy me.

As for the reviews, its confusing. Some totally bash it, some say its brilliant. I'll just wait and see myself... STILL HOPING !

How bad can this flick honestly be? I mean, Adrian Brody won best actor a few years ago for Pianist, and we all love Lawrence Fishburne, right? so who's bashing the movie?

Edit: Derek Mears (Jason Voorhees) Plays a predator? I'm sold.

I'm in there all the time and I don't really see much difference in number of comlaints compared to the other sub-forums Although, "they" probably have the sharpest eyes for detail I've ever seen.

Counting stormtrooper teeth comes to mind. Ironically, some of those same overcritical people are the ones here bashing HT headsculpts for having the bridge of a nose slightly off by two fractions of a millimeter, or T-1000 not coming with a curled trigger finger, etc.

Made my day.

I'm not even worried. Why? Because as long as you see it and you like it, then it's all good. Some critics are going to love it and some are gonna hate it. It is what it is. Same thing happened when Predator, which is one of the best sci-fi films, was reviewed. For example:

<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/Py28S4jUrDw&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/Py28S4jUrDw&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>

Sad thing is, I wasn't kidding.

That's why i use "expecting" i haven't seen it yet. I expect this movie will be a turd however.

That kind of prejudice is beginning to annoy me.

It's not prejudice, my opinion is based on the scenes i have already seen.

When i think about it i don't like a single thing about this movie (cinematography, cast, story etc...).

I can also finally admit to myself that i don't like the new predator designs.

As for the reviews, its confusing. Some totally bash it, some say its brilliant. I'll just wait and see myself... STILL HOPING !

The only intelligent reviews i've read were negative.

 

[Rotfish]

Spy Kids 4...? Good lord. I'd rather he get Sin City 2 done first .

"Intelligent" reviews on movies like these is an oxymoron

This is the pic I have seen of the Hot Toys figure

I don't see any horrible articulation joints around the shoulders or elbows. Could this be the first rubber body Pred? And the back of the knee looks like the T-800 elbow joint. All around new approach to making Preds. Now they need to go back and redo that horrible P2 figure.

I sure hope I hate this movie because I'm already wanting that figure. Damn!

 

[Rotfish]

Yeah, but rubber can be intimidating. It's been said many times that HT is great at making Preds, but not-so-great at making Aliens. If they start making them the same way, we might have some problems. Let's hope they've made improvements for these.

 

[fawk3s]

The only intelligent reviews i've read were negative.

Well the French reviews were quite negative and all they had to say, when translating with the google translator, was "This movie is horrible sheet !!11!1"
Dont find that too intelligent.

Some of the late positive reviews have been quite decent though.

People thought the same thing about "The Reaping" since Hilary Swank had won best actress TWICE for "Boys Don't Cry" and "Million Dollar Baby" before that movie came out.

 

[Furious1]

I know that it looks like rubber in that shot, but do we know for sure that it is?

New wallaper but really I just watched P1 with a group of people, this movie better live up to it. It looks good better than transformer 1 and 2 avp 1 and 2

I take it that you are not going to see this movie and
that you won't buy the HT figures?
