Oh dear.

On the bright side, maybe this means they'll include a newly remastered 2D Blu-ray transfer that hasn't been DNR'd to hell and back -- with extras?

[Nightmare Asylum]

Wasn't the Ultimate Hunter Edition supposed to fix the DNR problems?

Didn't it create the problems in the first place?

My old vhs copy of predator is still the best one imo. Sometimes low definition adds to the atmosphere of a movie, particularly old movies with dated effects.

I don't know, I thought I remembered hearing complaints about the first Blu Ray release...

The UHE is the one with supposedly all the DNR problems.

First Blu-ray was kind of a quasi-bare-upscale.

No, the first release is very solid. Lovely, film-like detail and strong colors. The UHE, on the other hand, is an abomination.

Compare jungle photography with the first release:


to that of the UHE:

Ugh, so waxy and smeary.

[OmegaZilla]

The shots I saw were de-scaled then.

Interesting, I'd have thought 3D Alien films would have come out first.

Recently posted on the Predators facebook page. Does anyone have any ideas on what this could mean? A game, maybe?

I saw that earlier. I was thinking it might some sort of Facebook game or something like that.

My guess is that there'll be some sort of an announcement at SDCC, since the backdrop of the image is the convention site. Hopefully it's a new film, and not another mobile game!

At most, probably a next-gen video game. More likely a small Facebook or iPhone game, though.

I'd just like to see another movie.
