What the?

Pride and Predator Together on the Big Screen?

Source: Variety
February 17, 2009



Will Clark is set to direct Pride and Predator, which veers from the traditional period costume drama when an alien crash lands and begins to butcher the mannered protagonists, who suddenly have more than marriage and inheritance to worry about.

Shooting will begin in London later this year. Elton John executive produces, and his Rocket Pictures partners Steve Hamilton Shaw and David Furnish are producing.

Clark, who directed award-winning short The Amazing Trousers, wrote the script with Andrew Kemble and John Pape.

"It felt like a fresh and funny way to blow apart the done-to-death Jane Austen genre by literally dropping this alien into the middle of a costume drama, where he stalks and slashes to horrific effect," Furnish said.

I dont understand...

That could actually be ^^^^ing awesome!


For some perverse reason I've always wanted to see an alien run around killing medieval monks (in the middle ages, not on a prison planet). You know, that whole idea of religion and aliens is neat.

Anyway, this could actually be fun.

Maybe.

LOL I'm guessing this is a hoax... no such project under that name on IMDB.

Wait.. like Faken said this might just be a hoax but let's say for a second it's real: Why do you guys think this has anything to do with Predator or Alien!?

when an alien crash lands..

That's a bland statement at best. This could very well be like "Destroy All Humans!" with a generic "Alien". This has nothing to do with the Fox Predator/Alien characters as far as I can see. "Predator" relating to the proposed title of this crapfest "Pride & Predator" simply refers to something that hunts. That term (despite what fans may think) is not synonymous with the SWS/Fox character. And before you dismiss the premise, remember: Someone made "Deathbed: The Bed that Eats People" so anything is possible.

This sounds like it should be from the Sun news paper

This could be very cool - but they're just using "Predator" as a generic term because it makes for a funny title. Homicidal aliens versus the Jane Austen crowd could be very funny though.

...I bet this was all written as a joke based on this old parody poster:

 

[CelticPredator]

Bwahahah! I'm sure it is. Good find Adam.

 

[AdamBombOi]

I'm not sure how old it is, but I've had it saved on my PC for at least a year or so.

If anyone was wondering, it's a parody of Pride and Prejudice.

 

[Devil_666]

lol.. but like I said, you'd be surprised at the crap that actually get's made. I mean hell, someone actually paid money for "Leprechaun: In the Hood" to be made.

 

[AdamBombOi]

I never had any desire to see Pride and Prejudice, but - in my opinion (which is a joke you ********s) - any movie could be made better with Predator in it.



And as stupid as it would be, you give me Predator in THAT movie and Keira Knightley gets her spine and skull yanked out, I'd see it. Hell, I'd go see Coraline if the annoying ^^^^^ got offed by a Predator, I'd have seen something like Juno if Ellen Page got flung up on a wall like that chick in AVPR.

No I don't care how well made a movie is, or how 'timeless' it is, or any of that crap - I'm not a 'movie' guy, I don't exactly give a damn about what is highly rated and acclaimed - I just want to see my favorite Alien dude kickin' some hippy ass.

 

[CelticPredator]

Juno Vs. Predator.....I like that.

DAMN RIGHT!
