Doesn't seem like there's any hunting in it, and all this stuff about gene splicing feels like its making the humans way too important... Human exceptionalism once again... That wouldn't be a big deal except I sort of thought the whole point Is that the Predator is scary because he looks at us as we look at animals... Like we'd ever start splicing our genes with deer or water buffalo or whatever... What advantage could there possibly be for them?
