Quote from: Corporal Hicks on Aug 01, 2022, 08:39:06 AMHonestly, it baffles me when portions of a fanbase seems so intent on not liking something. I may go into films with expectations or worries like I did with Predators (never been so pleasantly surprised) or The Predator (I greatly soured on this one after watching it a few more times), but I never go in actively wanting to dislike a film.
People want things to fit into the boxes they've imagined for them and don't like it when things step out of that box. They attack, the deride, they condescend, they dismiss, etc.

Even if it's the third best, I would still be ok with that.

Oh yeah - Absolutely!!

The first is always going to be the best for me as, like I'm sure most people on here did, I grew up on a diet of Arnie films in the early 90s and he was my hero.

The second never hits the highs of the original but it's still a very good film. Strangely I used to feel much more unnerved by P2 than I ever did P1 - to the point where even on a recent viewing I felt the same unease at the exact same part in the film. (Where they chase CH through the subway and you see him run away and turn the corner - no clue why that part affected me haha).

So yeah, even if this was 3rd best, it'd still be a huge improvement on the other sequels.

Just cannot wait to see this on Friday now!!

I'm still finding it funny that some are finding it a bad thing if this new movie is good. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Prey being good, if not the best sequel takes absolutely nothing away from the previous films. They can both be good and that's a great thing. So many are acting like it's blasphemy that those who have seen it are saying it's good, maybe even the best sequel. Don't we want good Predator movies again?

Seeing how he is partly responsible for the hate wave that was formed before the first teaser was even here, yeah he should be praising the movie lol

He shouldn't have if it was a bad movie, but he was proven wrong.
Many people can't admit when they're wrong. So this is a good sign (again). :-)

It is embargoed until tomorrow (I think). But MrH didn't get it through Disney PR, so he's not bound by anything.

I expect proper critic reviews to be less kind to the movie than it actually deserves. 

Remember just because it doesn't have a good Metacritic/Rotten Tomatoes score doesn't mean you wont enjoy it

6.6 on IMDB right now, but considering what all has been said about trolls in the ratings, I wouldn't give that much credit.

Yeah I wouldn't put much stock in that whilst the film isnt out yet. But still if it does sit around 6.6. Thats more than Predator 2 & Predators
