While I do enjoy the lab breakout scene, it is actually there that the predator look the most like a guy in a suit.

You really had to say that, didn't you ? Just to give Voodoo that satisfaction  :D

This page is filling with heresy.

Yep. Heresy of people saying that AVPR is better than The Predator

"Are you looking at AvPR, The Predator, or the clock?"

"I'm looking at AvPR, then the clock, then The Predator..  but only with beer goggles."

;D

Oh my man BDJ knows what's up with ADI Predators so far!  :) But alas, I think that has as much to do with the performance as the suit itself. When The Fugitive is fighting The Upgrade too, it's all a constant reminder to me how truly great Kevin Peter Hall was as a performer. Predator severely misses him.  :-[

Yeah as much as I want it, I doubt we'll see someone as gracious as KPH in the suit.

Sent back here after the little talk on the Skulls section:

AVPR over The Predator on the virtue of not even entertaining the idea of Predators hunting autistic kids to make them "stronger". Weaponized autism was supposed to be a meme forged from the darkest depths of 4chan, not something to be taken seriously but Shane Black and his buddy somehow did. It could have been a "so bad its good" film if it weren't for that end goal.

Wonder what he would have thought of the iconic alien he portrayed is now hunting for that sweet sweet autism.

I think their hearts were in the right place - or at least they thought their hearts were in the right place - with trying to reduce the "stigma" on autism.

But it was just so shoddily handled in every respect.

It sounds as if any heat it might have copped for that though was well and truly topped by Music.

Before that lab sequence is genuinely good stuff? Say it isn't so brother Hicks!

I didn't say every single scene. And yeah, I f**king love Sterling K. Brown, but plot-wise I think it goes completely off-the-rails after the lab breakout scene.

I think he mostly did great with what he was given in this movie, but I do think it's still below KPH's performances.

Personally, I'd put Ian Whyte over Prince too.

As the Engineer yes... As Predators? So exaggerated in the movements honestly.

I should have been more specific. I meant Ian Whyte's performance as Wolf.

As Wolf, you still felt there was over exaggeration?

Hmm. Interesting. I just watched AvPR again last week and I didn't get that vibe. I'll pay closer attention next time and see if I can pick up on what you're feeling.

As Wolf I can see why. But to be fair, Wolf had more screen time than Fugitive, so there's less performance to analyze for the latter.
