Possible Script Breakdown *potential spoilers*

[Xerxész]

Spoiler

"Only the Predator Dog mentioned in the recent set visits remains".

I think that means there's only one dog left.

[close]

I think not.
Just look at the Funko dogs...they are 2. The Green, the good one, and the Red, the bad one.
Most likely...

[OpenMaw]

I just hope they kept

Spoiler

She-Woman with her doggo companion. That moment was so pulpy and awesome. Sexy and badass, lady.

[close]

EDIT: That was supposed to be a spoiler.

[Denton Smalls]

Honestly the dog stuff was pretty silly, i don't want to see that in the final movie. And regarding the loonies, i mean it's a predator movie, what else can you expect ? Maybe one will survive, but no more than one.

Exactly. It's what everyone expects, that's why I'd be open to something different for a change.

I mean it's coherent scenaristically

Spoiler

that they almost all bite it considering the odds they are facing, and turning the tables just for the sake of surprise doesn't make much sense

[close]

True enough. Just like it when there's good camaraderie, especially when it seems the cast gets along great, cause it translates onscreen. Bummer when they go. And with the master of humorous buddy action movies, you know there's gonna be characters where it will SUCK when they don't reach the finish line.

I was very happy to see a bit of the decontamination scene from the script in multiple trailers.

I feel ya but i guess

Spoiler

it will make the death scenes more intense and emotional, which is a good thing that Predators almost didn't had for exemple

Not sure if the comment holds much weight, but i have read a comment from a guy who claims to have seen the movie in the last few days that there is a crazy twist at the end that sets up sequels??

Can't wait for a good Predator twist! Where did you read this?

[The Shuriken]

So in the script, for anyone that remembers, how was the Upgrade Predator defeated?

You are asking or saying?
Did this guy say something about that twist?

So in the script, for anyone that remembers, how was the Upgrade Predator defeated?

Quite an interesting way...as a result of a so-called team work. First Rory activates the Ark's shield which cuts Upgrade's arm (the right arm IIRC, the one on which he carries the harpoon weapon). Later McKenna finds the this arm and somehow uses the harpoon weapon against Upgrade. He hits him in Upgrade's leg. Casey arrives later with the self-desturctive dog collar and throws it onto Upgrade. It explodes and injures Upgrade seriously but he remains alive. A little "conversation" between McKenna and Upgrade and finally McKenna shoots Upgrade through his eye with his sniper rifle. That shot kills Upgrade.
Of course this process does not last for seconds...it is a longer scene.

And yet the person who started the thread was courteous enough to lead off with one. All good, though.

Thanks for you analyzing the script. 

What I liked:

Spoiler

• The whole set-piece involving the fighter jets pursuing the Predator's ship before it crashes whilst still cloaked sounds like it will be amazing to see on a big screen

[close]

I really hope it's still in the movie after reshoots...

Spoiler

It's the crash landing of the Upgrade's ship (mother ship),

[close]

so it still has to be in the film.
The 2nd

Spoiler

F22 scene, which takes place between the Ark and the jets (rockets against the Ark, and the Ark retaliating)

[close]

is a more interesting question...I wonder if THIS scene remained in the final cut.

No need for spoiler tags, huh?

[Xerxész]

If you wanna argue then...just go on. I won't.
Do not tell me you haven't made any mistakes in your life.

No need for spoiler tag in a spoiler topic. Case closed.

[Corporal Hicks]

Enough please. There's a spoiler tag on the thread title. We don't enforce further tags inside.

Didn't mean to make you mad. Just was wondering what made you leave off the tag this time. Also wondering why you wrote "No need for spoiler tag," right after mentioning making a mistake about it.

Was the mistake leaving the tag on, or taking it off?
