'The Predator' Box Office: Sci-Fi Sequel Disappoints With $10.5M Friday

20th Century Fox's The Predator was the top movie on Friday, ending a five-week rein for Warner Bros./Time Warner Inc. The Shane Black-directed and Fred Dekker-penned sequel to the first three Predator movies (sans any Alien involvement) earned $10.45 million on Friday, including $2.5m in Thursday previews. That compares to the $10.4m Friday of 2010's Predators ($12.5m adjusted for inflation) and the $9.5m opening Tuesday (Christmas Day) of Alien vs. Predator: Requiem ($12.8m adjusted for inflation). But those two spin-offs/sequels cost around $40m to produce while this installment cost $88m. In this case, the budget is what may be what breaks the movie.

Yep, and I'm still suprised Fox gave such a budget for a predator movie.

How did they spend that much on the budget for this? It looks like a 50/60 million max movie.

Maybe all the reshoots forced Fox to give more money. All the money used on the original third act was wasted.

A lot of it is terrible.


However the one thing I don't feel bad about it spending money on seeing the movie in IMAX. It was worth the ticket price even if the movie wasn't all that great.

rememeber shane black  said fox was kind enough to give him extra money for the reshoots of the 3rd act
( and from shanes own words) it was expensive.
