Le Stu Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Predators MovieI expect this will turn out to be rubbish, by the general law of tainted franchises but maybe it'll be rad, who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 Predator 2 is pretty pish in comparison to the original.Maybe so, but decent enough according to my memory of seeing it 20 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Willy was pretty ace."you don't see the eyes of the demon, 'till him come callin'..."FUC-KING VOODOO MAGIC MON, AHAHA I'm a fan of Rodriguez' films so we shall see.

Skubbs Posted March 13, 2010 Report Share Posted March 13, 2010 "you don't see the eyes of the demon, 'till him come callin'..."FUC-KING VOODOO MAGIC MON, AHAHA I love that bit. P2 isnt as good as Predator but not many sequels are. I'll definitely be going to see Predators, regardless if I hear it's shite - it's just got to be done.

My votes are all Arnie. "Stick around", "knock knock", "If it bleeds, we can kill it" and, the somewhat obvious but utter classic "Get to the choppa!!!". "Stick around" possibly edges it as my favourite Arnie line ever, just beating "Let off some steam Bennet!" from Commando. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skubbs Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 You can't mention Arnie to my boyfriend without him doing his "get to tha choppaaa" impression, followed by the strange gargled noise o_O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran_imray Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I dunno, if we did I missed it so "I'm gonna have me some fun, I'm gonna have me some fun, I'm gonna have me some fun". As for my thoughts on the film, I think it has hope. Robert Rodriguez generally means it shouldn't be fuck awful anyway, as long is it is better than Pred 2 and both AVP's, I shall be happy.

Bigsby Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 The first AvP has the distinction of being the only film ever to lead to a complaint from my neighbours about my surround system. It was OK, a forgettable bit of fun.The second AvP has the distinction of being one of the worst films I have ever seen. Probably second only to AI: Artificial Intelligence.

Bigsby Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 AI was only more awful because you went into it with high expectations. Exactly right, although the arse-numbing running time helped push it into top spot as well.You took three hours of my life and I want them back Spielberg! *shakes fist* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Mac Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Saw this last night.....Long Tall Sally. Check.Falling into a lake off a high section of Jungle. Check.Covered in mud to fight predator. Check.Use some of Arnie's lines. CheckGuy stops to fight predator using only a blade. Check.etc etc etc.Still quite enjoyed it though, if a bit silly in places. Also, Adrian Brody is not really an action hero, he's fairly been putting in the reps at the gym though.6/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
