The third act was what needed the most work in the script.

It was a right mess.

goddamn space aliens

But seriously, having recently reread the script, it drags out for twenty more pages than it really needs to.

Haha!! Yeah this will be a good thing, The 3rd Act was the only part of the script that bothered me, but fingers crossed its all sweet now!

Fixed quotes. Hicks.

I'm really happy to hear how much effort they are going to to fix any issues they're having with the film. Hopefully this will do some good work in fixing the problems that cropped up for people during tests.

Great news really. 3 weeks of shooting is a big chunk I'm keen as

Hope this makes for a better third act. Glad they saw that there were things that didn't work and opted to reshoot. Some filmmakers wouldn't care and push on with a release. Same for some studios as well.

Now that I think about it. This is kind of like the Original PREDATOR! Monster wasn't working, filming shutdown. Edited what was filmed together, studio saw something worthwhile was there. Enter Stan Winston, Kevin Peter Hall and co. . Third act totally reworked and filmed. Blam! Classic made. Not saying the results will be mirrored here. Just thought it ironic.

Either way, I cannot wait to see the trailer!

I think they just went from a giant shark movie staring the Predator to an actual Predator movie.

That's actually a really good point! I'd forgotten about all the difficulties the original Predator faced during its production.

Total disaster, lol.

Yeah, yeah, I know reshoots to pick up shots are normal but changing entire plotpoints like this never ends well. Combined with the fact that the script is garbage and Shane Black is a television director who has no business putting movies in theaters (Nice Guys was mediocre and the MCU is the cinematic equivalent to McDonalds food, IM3 is no exception) anyone who still thinks this movie is going to be good is fooling themselves.

[Shimmering Canopy]

It all depends on the nature of those who attended the screening. Whether they were the usual highschool teenagers---alas, cinema's preferred target demographic, and the reason most stuff is all commercialised, watered down and edited like MTV videos these days---or an audience who understands what a predator movie really ought to be like... well, I guess we'll find out. But if the feedback they say they got and took onboard is true (i.e. too funny) then hey, maybe we have a reason to be excited.

(NB: all of this is still based on useless speculation, conjecture and gut feeling of course... but I try to remain positive...!)

[D88M]

So, the movie had lots of forced humor in it like in the mcu movies, like IM3... Strange that test audiences made a good call for once, but still, i dont trust reshoots

[jimmyboy]

I hope the orginal 3rd act will be available on the blu ray... but I doubt it.

[Whiskeybrewer]

Well hope its sorted out but that we also get the original third act as deleted scenes on the DVD/Blu Ray
