I'm actually glad someone had the balls to go against the fans (the small band of about 5000), If Ridley scott had shown the predator world , no matter what he put up, people would be saying , how profound, master piece, legend. A bit like when someone sparys shit across a canvas and someone buys it for $15000 because its expensive.
The pred world to me was good, out of the ordinary, and not what we expected. I liked it, it was probably the best part of the movie.
