Not as bad as I thought it was going to look actually. No surprise to me that it looks more like AVP than anything else. To me it almost looks like a better quality AVP-R in many ways. So instead of a turd maybe this time we'll have a turd sprinkled with glitter.

With that said it's hard to not have a bitter taste from AVP-R alone so even the slightest similarity is going to cause fans issues. I didn't have a problem with Predators really. It might not end up so bad.

I'm amazed this was the best they could come up with though after all this time. Some of the ideas I've read here were brilliant. Why no desert or snow hunter (a real one this time)?

I'll go to see it just to support the franchise in the hope that one day something magical might happen. It seems to me that Alien, Terminator and Predator generally seem quite cursed though to never find a worthy sequel to the original(s).

I finally caught Blade Runner 2049 late a month or so ago and was so happily surprised to find it was a brilliant movie yet one that flopped so go figure.

I refuse to believe that a kid messing around with a predator remote is what brings the Predators back to Earth. Here’s to hoping it’s just editing for the trailer to make us all believe this.

This might be worse than the pizza boy needing to go into the sewers to find his keys only to be met with Aliens.

I think that's the wrong way to support the franchise.

Support good efforts that will encourage more good efforts.

Don't support bad efforts that will encourage more bad efforts, such as this on, it will only hurt these franchises.

I thought it would be a stupid parallel edit, not the actual reason, if it is, then more laffs I guess.
 
So bummed thought this was going to be the original ..now just some crappy one off random predator like Wolf ..c’mon Shane I wanted better :pfft:
 
Man they just can’t do predator right. The setting is all wrong in the first place...

Who packed that all up and mailed it to the kid? Lol it’s ridiculous

Action looked terrible too, and no money shot which is so easy to do with a predator.

It’s sad in this ‘franchise’ that there’s only one good movie, and it’s still the first one.

:lol

Don't worry. Accorfing to this movie some Predators have been working with humans for quite some time.

Just editing. Remember the script. He activated it by pressing something which triggered the super-predator who then comes to Earth to kill the one from the begining of the movie.
 
Keep on mind that the FX are made by ADI of AvP dilogy fame. And the only reason why Wolf didn't look like ass is because they had to invite Steve Wang to design him and Predalien, tho they still found a way to ***k up his original head sculpt.
