The Predator Conquers the Earth In New TV Spot!

20th Century Fox have just released a new TV spot for The Predator which is now being uploaded to YouTube. It’s full of new footage from the film with a look at the Predator in motion and the Upgrade Predator’s infra-red vision.

There also some new dialogue and the TV spot has a tone that seems to revolve a little about the humour and the more “broken” nature of this film’s heroes, the Loonies!

I believe this maybe the new TV spot that was recently aired during Thursday night’s NFL game. Thanks to Wobblyboddle77 for sharing the link. What did you think of the new footage?

    Just went back and noticed what you said about the skin changing too, interesting. Yeah perhaps he alters to the red and black color when he's fighting or something. Good that his mouth is not hanging open now though.

    Wow you rockin Tetsujin ! Loving these !

    Upgrade definitely change color or something, he is light brown in this one.

    And i love the guy getting impaled through the chest, brutal ! I would so love for it to be the blade that fugitive fires from his wrist, but i doubt it, too small. It would be so cool though ! A grappling retractable hook/blade sort of thing !

    Look at my above post. He gets bulkier and his skin color changes from brownish to redish/black. He looks much more athletic at first, and then activates his body armour when he's about to fight, look at the shoulders.

    Like goosebumps, but with armoured skin.

    It seems to move in some way, on the shoulders especially, like it was changing shape or something

    It has some kind of metamorphosing and changing of texture on the skin. Or  he is growing armor (like Johnny Handsome said), making his skin get thicker, or he actually can camouflage himself with his skin like a real chameleon. Look closely on the skin of Upgrade at 00:17. 

    Holy shit...maaaaan! :o
    Thanks for lighten me up, guys. I did not catch that kind of metamorphosis...quite a quick shot.

    It seems, he and his body is preparing to fight, as you say. It's some kind of offensive/defensive biomechanism... He grows spikes, you can see it on his forehead and also on his left upper arm as well (or the latter could be only skin tone change, I don't know...now I'm already seeing little spikes :D ).

    This wasn't in the script, but I can say that I also like this. :)

    You guys are seeing all these things, and I'm still trying to catch the Upgrade's skin changing  [emoji23]  I don't know if my monitor is too dark, but I'm having a hard time seeing Upgrade's "metamorphosing".  Did catch the blade retraction though once it was pointed out lol
    I thought it was his dreadlocks that were moving...lol

    At 0:03 I think that's an other section which was part of the reshoots. I mean that it's Stargazer base, where they are but Casey is in a kinda military cloth with a pistol (different cloth to what she wears in the Rundown behind the scenes video when she tries to get out from Stargazer base) and also Nettles (and Nebraska) is with her...already with a gun in his hand.
    Those who read the script know how the heroes get away from Stargazer base when Fugitive escapes (I'm referring especially to Casey), so I think this scene is after
    Spoiler
    the attack of Stargazer base, when Upgrade lets the heroes get some 'escape adventage' before he starts to hunt them down
    [close]
    , as Hicks mentioned from the test screenings.
    Spoiler
    But why does Upgrade attack Stargazer base?
    [close]
    I'm quite curious about this - probably new - section.

    Predators see thermal without a mask. In the first movie they had to douse the jungle down with ice water and get the actors to stand next to a fire to get them to register properly; what you see at the end is basically what the cameras actually saw without any mucking around.

    That's so cool, I never knew this! Didn't imagine it was that hot out there. So that case is basically like the first encounter with the hive in Aliens?

    Man, that's sene where Quinn aiming from the door of the bus reminds me of the Predator 2 where Harrigan was driving and looking from the door hole. Also the whole scene in the bus remind me of the helicopter scene in Predator 1  ;D
    Did anybody noticed whats up with Upgrade skin?


    Also about complainings about thermal vision without a mask, is everybody cool woth the same mistake in Predator 2?

    The new trailer looked awesome. I must admit they're making the predators look like badasses who mean business.

    Although I can't help but think the predators are the cause of global warming now with that one bad joke. :P

    So I see they're going with the 'Predators' thermal vision, why can't we just get the original? anyway, looks fun. That's the most light-hearted trailer for a predator film ever.

    Hi Everybody,
                        Long time lurker here,below is a you tube link i found for the new trailer 'The predator' that has just been released, it shows a lot of new shots including the predator running, he looks quite stealthy and quick, shots of characters hanging off the predator ship, with a very retro looking title screen shot.

                                              What do uou guys think?
                                             
                                              Enjoy

    The infrared is fine without the mask for the Upgrade I guess, but I would prefer the red vision from the original Predator. But I'm not a fan of the overall aesthetic of it. Still looks like a regular infrared camera was used.

    In the original, it looks and feels more Alien looking and it also looks like it's natural vision for the Predator than this and in Predators. Predators (2010) may have gone back to the red vision without the mask, but it still feels like a regular infrared camera was used and it was too sharped looking. The original feels more natural because it's soft and blurry in areas while only a certain area is focused.. It's like if you squint your eyes a little bit, it does darken around the edges a little.

    That is the vision I was hoping for without a mask.
