Predators hunting in Vietnam
Predators hunting ancient warriors in Egypt
Predators hunting pirates (P2 flintlock)
Even with Stargazer i think there are really cool ways to tell a new story without the Predator killer, more focused on an actual team capturing a Predator by surprise during a hunt... with them getting to the Predator spaceship, which then flies back home, there they have to face and fight different Alien species with the last survivor and biggest warrior being worthy enough to fight against an elder Predator.
The core story is always a hunt, and with that there are endless possibilities for really good movies, even on a smaller scale action/horror.
That's a fair assessment. "The Predator" seems to contain a culmination of parallels with both "Alien 3" and "Alien Resurrection". Plus, the Upgrade Predator can certainly be compared to the Newborn Alien on a species blending angle, as well as its mutual reception i.e. the ruffling feathers of fans.
It's a paradox I tell you. It just covered 2 movies in one. What on earth could come next?
Straight to a Prometheus Predator perhaps? An exploration of a long dead Predator Homeworld?
lol Thanks for proving my point.

Thomas Jane doing the ultimate Javier Bardem impression.
I know, I know.
Then again, the Fugitive was here to give us a weapon that we could use to fight back with, so maybe there was in fact a key!
Then again again, I think we're really not meant to think that hard about it.
Is there any type of key shown? I don't remember. Alien Language in one night. Not bad.
I thought the boy said "it says Predator Killer" , he doesn't , he says "it roughly translates as".
Yes , I have a dodgy version also.
The humans have decided to call them Predators, so when Rory reads whatever word Predators use to refer to themselves in their language, he translates it into "Predator" in English because that's what humans have decided to call them. That doesn't mean the word is actually "Predator" in their language.
I'm sure dolphins wouldn't refer to themselves as "dolphins", but if we could translate their language, we'd translate the series of clicks and chirps they'd use to refer to themselves as "dolphins" because that's what we call them in English.
EDIT
And yes, he does translate it. He reads it off the screen.
No traeger says "we had a vote , and Predator sounds cooler" That means they made that name up.
So Traeger managed to nickname the Predator what the Predator also called itself in its own language and that's also Predator?! Maybe I'm missing something here.
Edit: Actually he doesn't translate it does he, he just makes his own version of what he thinks it says. Gawd damn that ending. The Predator Killer
The kid is smart enough when he sees ~/\|} ^○ to translate that to 'Predators' when he's around the military, translate that to 'demons' if he's around King Willie, and translate that to 'ugly mofos' when he's around you.
Yeah but we named them the Predator. There would be no word translation. Unless the Predator knew we named them the Predator and put Predator Killer on the side..... In his own language.
The designs where better in most cases (there are quite the few variants) than what ended up in the film. And no one thought that it was a bad idea, much like Lucas had only yes men around for the prequels.
We need this scene designed you've got 2 weeks.
4 minutes later...designs predator suit that looks the same as a predator with 15 guns on its shoulders.
Studio - Perfect. Glad we have guys like you around to save our bacon.
Edit: Also does the boy read "predator killer" from the pod? If so that means that the predators also now refer to themselves as Predators.
Outstanding.
Strause might have worked on the effect, but I'll sleep comfortably knowing they didn't come up with the idea.
In some alternate universe, this happened and maybe the movie was good.
Shane Black ruined the franchising. As simple as that.
Be like the mighty salmon.
Hey, this time, instead like with "The Predator", I'm on the side of the majority! I like it over on this side!
Civil War was a hot mess. Entertaining, but I took issues with the structuring and it being nothing more than a forced excuse to split them all up.
Inifinity War was the first film that did stuff right, except that mess of a Wakkandan Battle that seemed to be lifted straight from any random Transformers film.
Back on topic though, yeah, nothing Black did with "Iron Man 3" told me he was the right fit for Predator.
Somehow most Marvel films are great at build ups but rarely deliver in the final IMO. Perhaps they are just too full of details and twists to make them truly epic in the end.
I enjoy them, but back on topic: it was the anticipation that sold those tickets.
I don't know. Whatever it is, I can't see it. So it must be.
But you'll never get anyone in charge to put an end to what's likely the greatest money making machine in the history of the business. It'll have to put itself out narratively. Unless they start introducing more new characters as teenagers to keep the franchise alive for the foreseeable future. This beef with Thanos needs to be the endgame. Then they all need to retire and let the world take care of itself. "They always had heroes".
Yea I don't get how Black gets the credit for making Iron Man 3 a hit either. It was the weakest in the franchise imo, and would have made a billion even with Uwe Boll directing.
You do realize that movie would have made tons of cash no matter who directed it right?
And I didn't know directing the money-in-the-bank "Iron Man 3", the sequel starring the most popular star in the mcu Robert Downey Jr., the one film that directly followed only the hottest Marvel event film yet, the first "Avengers", the the one that most mcu fans (like myself) considered a misstep, I didn't know directing that movie made Shane the right fit for "The Predator"! It might prove he's the right fit for another Marvel film, but Predator? And to co-write it too?
It's probably why I didn't know the director of the wonderful James Bond film "Casino Royale", Martin Campbell, made him the right fit for "Green Lantern" either! Oh.. wait.
Look I had fun watching "The Predator", will buy it on blu-ray too, but it's not the great film the franchise needed unfortunately. And that falls mostly on Shane.
IMDB just hasn't been the same since they deleted the social media elements and comments section.
I cringe when 30-something man-child YouTube reviewers tell Millennials of Shane Black's previous work, even I have no interest in watching as a 80s/90s kid, but forget the elephant in the room.
