The Predator Early Reactions Thread

[SyntaX]

Is the Assassin Predator a worthy entry to the franchise?

Yes and "no".

For me, a Predator was always meant to use tactics to get his prey. Stealth, tactics, a clear vision ... and he executes that to perfection. The Assassin on the other hand ... not so much  It took me a while to accept that this "Predator" is different.

As a comparison, better than the Jurassic World Indominous though? In terms of not being just a big stupid movie monster?

All a matter of opinion. I liked the Assassin once I got used to him.

Thanks for sharing your opinion ! Would you say the gore was over the top (a la AVPR) or was acceptable/believable ?

There's CG blood. But it works.

SyntaX, have you read the early script?
If yes, what do you mean about the changes applied to the version you saw?

I don't mind cgi blood if it's done well. It didn't look bad in Logan. Of course fake physical blood is best. A mix between two could do the trick imo.

By the way could you check your pm please?

Nope, didn't read it at all so I can't compare the script vs the final product.

No problem. I just hope they didn't do fake advertising ah la Predators. At least Predators trailer showed only one fake bit. What worries me is The Predator might have lots of it.

All scenes from the final trailer still in the movie?

yes / no

Похоже нет:)

Ну блин!

What about the score?

What about the score?

Didn't pay much attention to it. There was some nice homages to the original score though!

The third act good then? I'm hoping the trailers haven't shown us much from it.
