The Predator Official Trailer
- Thread starter BigMack
- Start date
Visually speaking, the movie looks incredibly underwhelming. The predators look too much like guys in rubber suits. I dunno, somehow the first Predator movie was more convincing. Hell, even the AvP predators looked better.
The tone and plot are interesting however. I just wish the movie looked better.

The AvP predators are the goofiest looking mother fuckers ever. Giant bobble headed padded suits.... no.
Eh...
I feel like Predator as a concept is something that worked the best as an 80's action movie.
Here it looks so out of place in modern day, and they are just tacking on so much stuff onto what was a simple premise. Also, since when do people in the films actually refer to them as "Predators"?

That doesn't actually happen, unless they refilmed that scene different to the leaked script that is out there right now. If you want to know what actually happens...
The bullies are watching in the street, being dicks to the kid as he's trying to trick or treat wearing some Predator items. At one house the kid is attacked by a junkie who throws something at him, hitting him, and as he's scurrying away the shoulder canon autonomously whips over his shoulder and obliterates the junkie behind him. It's obviously played for comedy but it's also meant to be quite shocking.
Still not feeling it. Looks like it fits in better with the AvP series than the original predator, and we all know what that means.
They gotta do that old sequel cliche, huh? You thought the original predator was mean? Watch this BIGGER ONE THROW IT LIKE IT'S NOTHING! Wow ooh scary!
Pass, unless the reviews convince me otherwise.

Has a leaked plot synopsis ever sounded good? Seriously, I can't recall a time that plot details have leaked ahead of footage and the reaction wasn't "Sounds stupid."
General internet rule of thumb seems to be:
Details that leak before a film is released: "Sounds awful".
Details on unfilmed or cut content after release: "Sounds better than what we got."
This sounds more like something from a Shane Black movie.
That trailer looks really good. I'm excited again. And Shane can do no wrong. I'm optimistic.
Yes. A cornerstone ruling that set precedence referenced in Batman v Superman
That's a much better trailer but like come on! You establish in every other movie they cloak and in all these trailers they just flat out show the Predator. Can't show a clip of a cloaked one?
If I didn't recognize the film maker and property I would think it was just some direct to Netflix movie.
The marketing for this movie has been poor to non existent, so it's good to see a better trailer for this movie.
I still think the movie will be better than what some people think because of Shane Black but I also don't mind the direction this is going with the Predator vs Predator stuff, like in the extended universe and last movie. I don't need every Predator movie to be like the original because why bother making the same film over and over, so I'm happy they are doing something a little different and exploring the Bad Blood Predator concept a little more.

Ok. That was wayyyyy better than the initial trailer. I'm sold enough that I'll go. But I'm getting vibes it will just end up being mediocre. Hope I'm wrong. Just think none of those guys look like badasses unfortunately.
It's not even a action movie but a comedy. I'm not even joking. The test screenings were so decisive that Fox had to bump the release back and do reshoots.
Doesn't help the original script was garbage.
There is two groups of characters apparently, the one mercenary team "assassins" who encountered the predator first, and then the rangers who are arrested for some reason, who end up coming together in the military prison bus scene. They are then forced to work together.
Definitely an improvement on the last trailer...which wasn't hard to be fair.Still not convinced
I think Thomas Jane explains it quite eloquently. lol
that poster is a 100 times cooler than the trailer. i'd be down for a throwback 80s era predator with gorgeous retro trappings.
Lmao this is my only compliant really. The trailer was interesting
The trailer is a bit better than the last. However, the last trailers were really bad. So this is just a little step up.
There is so much wrong. The urban setting sucks. The hybrid-predator sucks. I don't know, the athmosphere is just not there.
This will probably be the biggest movie dissapointment of 2018.
