Possible Script Breakdown *potential spoilers*

[echobbase79]

I don't remember any indication of

Spoiler

the defected Predator seen in the first two acts having human blood.

[close]

Yeah, all I remember

Spoiler

was 'human eyes'.

[close]

And that makes sense how? Why would it have...?

Spoiler

Apparently their planet is dying out. It's becoming colder. So they're taking human DNA and using so they can adapt to our world. And from I gathered from the script, to take it over. It doesn't say that specifically, but that's how I read it.

[close]

Spoiler

So the predators in this movie will look more human than P1 and P2 for example? Did the upgrade have the human eyes or the regular predator(s)?

[close]

Spoiler

Just the Hybrid.

[close]

Spoiler

Then why between predators war if they need to escape from their planet? or some predators want to live peacefully with us on our planet?

[close]

[Master]

It's The thing that makes me despise this script much.

Spoiler

Predators, interstellar super advanced species that hunted on great many worlds just now realised they need our backwater earth. So what? Invasion! Come on...

[close]

[Master]

Spoiler

Nope, it's  suggestion. There is bit of dialogue that events in this one started a war and the answer is the war already started. Plus this whole mumbo jumbo of genetic changes to better cope with our atmosphere

Spoiler

Thanks! Just to be clear. The regular predators are really just regular predators? And the Hybrid is a human/predator hybrid? Or does he have other species in his DNA as well?

[close]

Spoiler

Yes, the regular Predators are normal. As for the hybrid, it's more Predator than human, but I guess it's evolving. We never see the full realization of what that would look like though.

Spoiler

In the script, how do they explain why the main characters should put these friendly predators on a hybrid ship and send them back home? And why are the fate of these predators so concerned about the protagonists?

Okay last question then i will shut up. A war between regular predator and hybrids? The regular ones don't want to take over the earth?

[close]

It's not answered straight.

[close]

They shouldn't. They are just fighting common enemy.

The Upgrade has

Spoiler

"human eyes."

[close]

Not any classic Predator.

The classic Predators

Spoiler

do not care about conquering Earth - they are dissidents embroiled in a civil war with the Upgrades, who know our planet is warming and seek to take it over because theirs is cooling down. They need a hot climate to thrive. The classic Predators seen in the third act came to Earth and contacted agents in our government to alert them to the threat and work to defeat a common enemy: the Upgraded Predators.

That sounds god awful.

Not only does it sound god awful, it also makes absolutely no sense.

Spoiler

There are two known sapient species in our universe if we ignore AvP and we know for a fact that Predators have terraformed hot humid game preserve planets which can easily be inhabited.

[close]

This and "Predators" cannot function in the same canon unless they manage to explain this bullshit. Seriously, even throwing "Predators" out the window we still know that the Predator species has FTL travel which they use at their leisure.

Then there's the whole

Spoiler

"indepth discussion as to why we call them Predators when they aren't really predators" thing I read a while back. Seriously? Who the hell wrote the damn script if that's actually a part of it? I can't remember them ever actually being referred to as Predators in the movies, only Hunters or something like that. This reeks of stupidity pretending to wak philosophical.

Do we? From what? I don't know of anything in Predators that explicitly indicates terraforming, and comics and AVP don't count. And regardless of any terraforming elsewhere, that still doesn't mean it's not plausible for them

Spoiler

to look to Earth. Just because there could be other worlds to use does not make Earth less of an option, it just means you personally think they should go somewhere else. That's not 'no sense,' that's your opinion.

They're referred to as that in this film. Then it's explored and unpacked in terms of backstory.

That sounds god awful.

You're spot on about

Spoiler

The terraforming, it's never even hinted at in the movies anywhere, just extended universe comics, books etc I'd imagine.

[close]

As for

Spoiler

Them being referred to as predators in the movie, that's fine, Keyes already referred to the one in P2 as a predator. It's been done, no big deal

[close]

[Master]

Turning one of the most distinct franchise in to yet another alien invasion truly is God awful.

Why AvP don`t count? Cause you don`t like it? It`s funy cause it`s even acknowlaged in the script

Spoiler

Holy shit -- THE BATTLE-SCARRED PREDATOR BIOHELMET.
The iconic WAR MASK from five separate films. It DWARFS this
suburban boy's delicate hands.

That, in and of itself, does not confirm that the AVP movies are explicitly acknowledged within the story of the film itself.

None other story, except first film maybe is.
