I'll add the upgrade's harpoon weapon thing, although it's a bit underused.
Agreed

The flying buzz-saws and pred-grenades were cool.

Also this. I'm kinda partial to the big guys design, just not the lore around it.

The introduction of Royce was pretty good, but it didn't make it to the movie.(He sets a target of fire and lket him burn to the ground, and it's seen from pov similar to the ones the predators got, to confuse the audience.)
The trap with Cuchillo's cadaver was kinda creepy, I liked it.

Wrong movie, pal  :D

Although there was a lot to dislike there were some legitimate merits:

1. Spaceships travelling vast distances by creating and using wormholes.

2. New pred gear like plasmacaster inside of the helmet. Also new info on how the cloaking works. Spaceship barrier forcefield was cool too.

3. Fugitive was a very good new and unique predator design and the actor did a great job with his body motions. It wasn't just jungle hunter with a new helmet and slightly differeht clothes. Also his interaction with the humans was something that we really have not seen before.  He fired a warning shot at the car and with his hands he motioned for the humans to put their guns down. That kind of interaction was fresh even though it was small.

4. The stargazer lab scene was really good.  Also bringing in Jake Busey was a neat connection to predator 2.

By being a metal ball that turns you invisible on command when swallowed? It's ridiculous. Let's forget that one.

Well, he swallowed it 'cause cops were on his trail not 'cause it looked like a candy, you know

The worst part was when it needed to come out actually  :laugh:

In order of importance:

1. The Cast. Special shout outs to the absolute waste of Boyd Holbrook and Sterling K. Brown, but also Thomas Jane, Keegan-Michael Key and others.

2. Fugitive's design (ADI face not withstanding) and also Brian A Prince's performance.

3. Upgrade's harpoon.

Sterling K Brown should've been the protagonist.  Cery engaging.  Concept of Assassin and some of his weaponry was straight up bad ass.  As was that scene where brutally impales the military guy repeatedly and ferociously.  Guy who played Fugitive was good, as was his design.

The fugitive was pretty decent. The thumbs up he gave with the severed arm was great. Squirrel hunters have given middle fingers with squirrel paws lol. So it was relevant to hunting culture somewhat lol.
