My friend linked me to the other video that's available, it's basically that trailer interspersed with RR talking about it.
A number of things raise small cause for concern:
1) The minigun. It worked in the first partly because it was an 80's film full of body builders, but also because it was sparsly used and kinda simply there. I hope it's not been stuffed in as some sort of homage.
2) That last scene. About 20ish predators all aiming at the chap. I think it might be stepping away from the lone hunter bit, don't know whether that will be a good thing.
3) I had a look on IMDB at who was playing the predators, three of them, biggest of which is 6'7", not the 7'2" of Peter Hall who starred as the predators in the original films, nor the 7'1" Ian Whyte who was in the AvP films.
I know some of it can be got around by clever camera work but there is something more imposing about using massive chaps for the Predator role as they'll dominate the human characters in scenes where they are toe to toe in terms of sheer size. It's of minor concern though as platform boots can solve that issue.
I'm actually looking forward to it, hopefully it'll not be a modern hollywood action romp and actually convey the fear of being hunted like the first one did.

My initial take on that was that it's a reaction to the guy trying to give up or escape or saying "I'm not playing your game anymore". My thinking being it's a kind of training arena for noob predators and has the overseer preds stopping the game from being too easy.buzzmong wrote:2) That last scene.

But then it is called Predators, hopefully it won't weaken the individual preds, like Aliens did.
Adele Dry White's adventures look fun, too. Love the Mummy.
Although in Alien they were using jury rigged weapons, versus the fully automatic 10mm explosive tipped ammo firing pulse rifles the marines used in Aliens. But yeah, hopefully the inverse ninja rule won't apply here.FatherJack wrote:

Edit: Apparently that chump Chris Evans (not the DJ, the bloke who was in Push and played Human Torch in Fantastic Four) is set to play Captain America in an upcoming film! What the shit?!
