Giggity

Seeing a mixed reaction. Some people liked it. Others didn't. Lots of blood and deaths in it.

totally ruined my childhood memories

There it is.

[Original Predator]

The trailer starts in a neighborhood. It's Halloween. Kids are milling about. In one house, someone opens a package from JP Courier Co. The boy finds a Predator mask in it. He messes with some of the tech. He finds what he thinks is a ship but ultimately awakens a ship which crashes into earth. Holbrook is interrogated. He says he's a sniper and didn't see anything but Sterling K Brown knows he did. Holbrook says he feels like "an alien" on his own planet. Flashbacks of a chaotic chase through the woods flash by. Munn is a scientist, she rules that the species is upgrading on every planet it visits. Holbrook says "posing a threat is kind of the f---ing point." Predators wreak havoc in various locations using their claws to slice people, there's blood splatter, and the mask looks spot on. The chaos happen the woods and the lab. Holbrook has a team of what looks like mercenaries. Munn turns out to be pretty handy with a gun. Something she says she learned in America.

While I get what you're saying, it's not. Your childhood memories are still intact and consist of two films and a slew of comics and merchandise.

This film will not change that. If anything, it kills it's future.

More MORE!!!

Talk on Twitter seems to be positive for the most part. The words "badass" and "bloody" were thrown around. But one guy said it felt "studio-y"?

Like too polished? Ugh...tired of speculating lol

[Doomofman]

From the initial reactions it seems like the story hasn't really changed very much from the draft that was floating around... The main beats seem exactly the same anyway

Not crazy on the words used in the synopsis. Having said that, glad to see that the trailer is receiving mostly positive feedback. I'm still gonna wait to see the trailer myself. I'm not one for snap judgments.

Hopefully the trailer we get in May feels like a PREDATOR movie rather than... I don't know? A bad 50's Sci-Fi mixed with 80's/90's humor?

I think it's fair to say this film will be a three star film, Iv calmed down so I'm not going to rant there's no point, but I'm highly disappointed to say the least. I'll still watch it as it's still predator , but I have a message to Shane black and co and it's this ... next time you sell me your film and bill it as an "event movie" like it's going to be a huge blockbuster , I will just laugh at you!  You clearly just wanted to piss the fans off , and my respect for you as a film maker has plummeted..

Same here. But I'm glad the snap judgments are mostly positive because if they were overwhelmingly negative snap judgments I'd be worried beyond hell.
