All these Shane black fans clinging on for dear life and can't accept that he has utterly failed. See I'm a man of taste, you can decorate crap all you want, but it's always going to taste bad.
My point is the script was just bad. And at its heart it's the core of a movie. If the script is bad, it doesn't matter how much money you throw it, what actors come on board, how much cgi you have, the film is going to suffer. As the predator has now found out. All the changes made were down to a dodgy script, in my humble opinion it's Fred Dekker who's to blame. Why fox employed a man that has already been on record saying he never liked the original is beyond me. It's his script so it's his fault. And it's Shane's for not staying true to predators roots.
