Speculations on the fresh new angle Black is talking about?

[nanison]

Talk about them here. I wanna be up to date.
I really have no idea what else you can do that makes a 4th (or 6th if you want) sequel inspiring.

We all are hyped only because Black who has affinity with the franchise is going to do the film right? I have yet to see a film of his I think...

Wrong board, sorry guys!

What you can do to make the sixth entry fresh is not recycle the basic construct the last five movies repeated. Which should've been done starting with the second film.

It's easy to do. All it takes is some imagination. Thankfully Shane has that in spades.

Predator 2 is a great sequel wich is very different from the original and developped the pred species perfectly.
One of the greatest sequel ever, wich happened a lot in 1990.

[BishopShouldGo]

Nope. We get a few seconds of a trophy case and multiple predators and some new weapons and that's considered development?

Anyway...

[Master]

Ok. What's youe idea for sequel? What you consider development?

[nanison]

I'm pretty sure I know what's going on.
The predator will have a crossover with Conan. That's why we haven't had a word about the new Conan in months. This way it's also confirmed Arnold will be in the film. After Conan slays the predator after a exhausting, epic battle he looks at the sky. The film then ends with Ripley, Hicks and Newt crashing on the planet, with them a facehugger who leaps at Conan's face. This will result in a SuperAlien that perfectly set's up Blomkamp's vision for the Alien sequel.
You heard it here first!

No. Predator 2 is literally just the same kind of film as the first Predator. It's a slasher film, only instead of it being spun from an 80s action movie, it's spun from a 80s/90s cop/detective movie.

Thank you!

I would've loved it developed the predator species, but it did no such thing.

Trophy case? A clan of predators? A spaceship?

We knew it collected trophies and had a spaceship from the first movie, and certainly assumed there were more of its kind. The movie should've been more of 1) The Keyes character and the other governmental characters, them or a variation of those kinds of characters who were aware of the existence of the predator should've been the focus 2) The spaceship ending with multiple predators should've been a large, integral part of the movie too. Give me more interactions like the Elder throwing Harrigan the gun.

Predator is not a slasher.There are no teenagers in this movie.

[BishopShouldGo]

Lol. You don't need teens for a slasher. It follows the slasher paradigm quite faithfully actually. Dutch is essentially the Final Girl.

Nothing wrong with that. Predator is a classic.

[SiL]

Dutch isn't a Final Girl. Final Girls are only alive at the end because they're the last person in line to be killed. He encounters the Predator before the end, before everyone else is dead, and escapes because of the plan they set up (the net).

That being said, yes, they're slashers -- murdering hunting down prey one-by-one until the final confrontation. But then so is Alien.

[Johnny Handsome]

Predator follows the "ten little indians" approach, but it not really a slasher movie. It's an action movie that has elements of Horror/sci-fi in it.

It's like saying Die Hard is a slasher movie, because Gruber is the only terrorist that makes it to the end and everyone get's killed one by one.

Agreed.
Alien is a a slasher, Predator is not.

[BishopShouldGo]

By your own metric Alien is not because there are no teenagers.

If Alien is a slasher then Predator is a slasher. They both follow ten little Indians.

Yes of course. So is Alien indeed. I've always said this.

And those final girl details are just the window dressing. So he encounters it before the end. He's still the last one alive and has to face down the boogeyman, regardless of the minute details that preceded the events.

But we had no idea that it had Alien trophies in the case
