Robert Rodriguez's PREDATORS Movie Thread - SPOILERS

[Devil_666]

Yeah of course. I keep telling people, we might not see eye to eye on certain things.. might even call each other names.. but at the end of the (internet) day it's all good. I don't take anything on the internet personally and I don't hold grudges. Half the people I'm cool with on this board I offended originally.

It's all good people.

 

[CelticPredator]

____ yeah. There have a been a FEW times where it got way too much, because the insults were personal. Thats low. But other wise, who carz.

 

[DinoLast]

Get a room

 

[MaulFan]

There is a difference between differing opinions and busting balls for fun and those who have no acceptance for other opinions and put down out of malice.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

Just 7 words: It's not always about muscles and strength.

This is true. In my 6 years in the Army I didn't see many body builders like Arnold or Ventura in the Ranger or Special Forces units I worked with. I'd say a good 95% of them looked more like Jason Statham or just really, really lean like Georges St. Pierrre (UFC fighter).

 

[tylerdurden]

Also, it doesn't matter if your lean or a huge mass of muscle.

A Predator will ____ you up either way.

You need brains.

Why did Arnold win? He couldn't go toe to toe in a ____ing fist fight.

He had to out-smart the Predator.

spot on.


as for adrien brody being in a predator movie... i'm not a big fan of the man, but i'm willing to give him a chance. watch the film before u make pre-conceived judgements, folks. just sayin.

 

[uscmhicks]

I'd say a good 95% of them looked like Jason Statham .

Awesome.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

Awesome.

what?? I'm serious. Would you imagine these guys with the Hulk Hogan facial hair being absolute badasses??

 

[A.L.I.E.N]

Im not judging on this film till it comes out!

I have the best of hopes for it though It looks promising

 

[Devil_666]

what?? I'm serious. Would you imagine these guys with the Hulk Hogan facial hair being absolute badasses??

I would find BOTH of those guys more believable as Mercs than Adrian Brody.

 

[hairlesswookiee]

^^^Its the 'stache isn't it??? Brody should've grown out the Hogan 'stache.

 

[MaulFan]

I'm not against Brody's casting, I liked him in Kong, but on the idea of him looking right for a skilled warrior, I think it's his face that hurts it, I do find his eyes especially have this look like he's about to cry a lot of times, it's really weird but even in a happy moment he can look sad.

 

[Bullseye]

No problem with AB in this movie. They don't have to be all muscle heads. Most leaders aren't anyway.

 

[MaulFan]

I actually find the casting of Fishburn and Brody the most encouraging parts of this movie, I believe they both can deliver performances and make the human story interesting, there were too many unknowns in the AVP movies to give me any confidence.

 

[devastator's balls]

Yes I liked Brody in King Kong too, and I think he will do good here. Fishbourne will be good here as well, especially since there are no more pizza boys or Ripley look-alikes in this movie.

Yes I agree, except I would say he is wet.

 

[CelticPredator]

I think his sad eyes work for the character. This guy, as cold and as hard as he is...he somehow wishes not to be this way. But he has zero choice in the matter. It's killed, or be killed.

 

[a-dev]

He does look really sad since people mention it. Just look at CelticP's avatar.

 

[MaulFan]

It can work depending on the character he's portraying, but from a marketing standpoint, where people don't know what his character's about and trying to make it seem like a good thing that he's in the movie, having a face that looks ready to cry in almost any situation can be a tough sell when he's portraying a soldier. Most film goers aren't going to read every bit on the movie, download the script, they'll go off a few images and commercials and trailers.

 

[CelticPredator]

They'll be surprised.


Think about....how long has it been since an A LIST actor has starred in either an Alien or Predator film?
