I'm looking forward to this. I consider it the first step in fixing this ruined mythology.

I would love some kind of double feature with Predators and Expendables back-to-back in that order.

Dave, you know how I always find nice things to say about movies, even when the rest of you vote crap?

All I can say about this movie is "adrian brody has nice abs".

Crap.

I can't blame anyone voting crap on this, and maybe I'm just relieved that Predators wasn't as bad as the AvP movies, but I'll give this a marginal not crap.

In some ways it's a seamless continuation from the first movie. SpecOps in the jungle sorta thing. The opening is pretty cool. The Adrian Brody as Christian Bale as Batman voice was stupid. I don't know if the samurai fight was intentionally funny, but I laughed--it was that ridiculous. The spaceship thing at the end was dumb--it makes no sense why Adrian Brody would screw himself that badly. The kid from That 70s Show...I guess I would've liked to see the whole cast from that show in this, killed one by one. There was no 'git to the choppa' moment, but they've never been able to recreate anything like that. It looked like the ending was specifically made with a sequel in mind. I'm not sure I could possibly care unless it involved one of the hunted grabbing a Predator ship and it auto-navigating back to the Predator homeworld. And then he teams up with a Predator cop and he's all, "hey, i'll show ya how we fight crime," and the Predator's all, "hey, that's not how we do it in Predator City." Wilfred Brimley will play the mayor.
