Lot of people dread Predators being "humanized", as in, being anything other than scary monsters. Why is that?
Would all the Predators truly cease to be scary if we were to be introduced to a few "sympathetic" ones, like individuals from that species who don't hunt (that I'd call Non-Predators) but are antagonized by the classic variety who do?
After all, just because there are sympathetic humans, doesn't change the fact that there are also rapists and murderers. The latter two are not made any less frightening by the former. So why can't the Predators be allowed the same nuances as a species?
I can understand being wary of Predators, the kind we know that is, being portrayed in a positive light, seeing as they hunt for sport, but are individuals from that species who don't hunt also a no-no?
Besides, I could never hate alien hunters as much as the human equivalent anyway. I'm not indifferent to the Predators' evil, but we've never encountered beings that look and sound like them in the real world, which makes them a less palpable evil. Therefore, insisting on keeping them purely evil seems forced, to me.
