New clan of better Predators? Bigger and more evil? Well, 3 of them couldn't take out a bunch of criminals where in the first movie one "normal" one took out a whole team of experienced soldiers... ohh the logic...To each his own, but for me, this is by far the weakest of the 3 movies.Predators was the weakest out of the three but not a bad movie on its own.

Quote from: Corporal Hicks on May 17, 2016, 11:05:14 AMI'm not sensing a great deal of competition there.
Quote from: Johnny Handsome on May 28, 2016, 07:48:40 AMI think Predator would have won the box office battle against Meg, the new competition is now the third Grey movie, and to be frank, Predator is so gonna lose that one. Can't compete against boring soft core porn, ohh the audience of today.
