Robert Rodriguez rebooting Predator?

[bassman]

Adrien Brody and Lawrence Fishburne ... warriors? I thought the point here was that they're not warriors, or not all warriors anyway. In other words, not going up against a Schwarzenegger, but more 'normal' specimens of mankind as-it-were. Actually....with the exception of Topher Grace's character, every character is a trained killer on earth. They may not be unrealisticly huge like Arnold, but they're all serious people that you wouldn't want to f*ck with...

Ladies and Gentlemen....the Predators Teaser Trailer Love it!

[ProfessorChaos]

oh yeah, liking what i see. believe it or not, i've got a friend from work who's in his mid-twenties and has never seen the original predator. needless to say, i'm having him and some other buds over and we're getting some beers and watching it this weekend. but yeah, that new trailer looks pretty good. definitely seeing this one on the big screen.

[clanglee]

Well now. . .that doesn't look half bad. Not bad at all. Hmmmmmm. . . .

[Legion2213]

Okay, I'm up for a bit of that...I'll even forgive the token "strong female warrior type" who's been thrown in there for purely PC/marketing reasons. That Yakuza guy looked pretty cool as well.

[MinionZombie]

Didn't get any chills from the trailer, I have to say, which is unfortunate. Not a particularly good trailer in general, it didn't amp me up for it ... and is it me, or is the Predator homeworld look lazily like Earth? In this day and age of CGI all over the place, some of those shots look far too "just earth" to me, if that makes sense.

[Legion2213]

Probably the Canadian wilderness...which oddly enough, looks EXACTLY like all the worlds that SG-1 have ever traveled to... Edit: I think that the Pred home world is very diferent, the world they are on is a game reserve (apparently)

[MikePizzoff]

Not too sure how I feel from that trailer, but it's obvious they're not trying to give too much away, so I'll definitely give it the benefit of the doubt. I'll be seeing this for sure.

Edit: I think that the Pred home world is very diferent, the world they are on is a game reserve (apparently) Yeah, this isn't supposed to be the predator home world. And seeing as how they are studying humans, I think it would make sense to drop them in an area similar to Earth's jungles. It wasn't the jungle that bothered me, but the rocky, dried out Planet of the Apes looking desert shot.... This teaser totally gave me chills. Starting off with the stars like the original, the voice overs, the original music, didn't give away the entire flick, etc. This left me wanting more. Just like a Teaser should do. And who could resist a flick with both Danny Trejo and Predators?? Antal and Rodriquez's bragging at SXSW is totally justified. They were saying that if they failed at everything else, at least they made a very good LOOKING film. And it does look incredbile...

[AcesandEights]

Well, it's just a teaser, so I'm not dissapointed that it wasn't exactly a barn burner. It's definitely worth a look in the theatres and how long has it been since that can be said about a Predator film? In my opinion, a longass time.

heard some lukewarm stuff from people at SXSW this year, think im giving this a miss. -Also why is this called a rodriquez reebot?, i thought the director was nimrod atal right? is he just one of the producers on this?

[bassman]

heard some lukewarm stuff from people at SXSW this year, think im giving this a miss. You're going to base your opinion on the people at SXSW? All they were shown is the above teaser and some conceptual artwork. Most of which they said was old and not going to be used.... As for it being labeled as a Rodriguez film - Probably the same reasons District 9 had Peter Jackson all over the ads. Or Tarantino on Hostel. Or Tim Burton all over Nightmare Before Christmas. It's a producer/bigger name thing. It gets on my nerves too, but I guess it's a marketing thing.

Im going by the opinions of friends who are there who i know and trust there opinions, i wouldnt trust movie journalism at all nowadays, you hardly ever get anything spot on, id much rather get an opinion rom people i know than random people on the internet y'know?

[bassman]

Trailer with alternate footage. If you went to see Repo Men, this is what you saw.

[bassman]

International or "R" rated trailer. Blood, guts, spinal columns! There are a few shots that could technically be considered spoilers, but I guess if they decided to put them in the trailer they aren't THAT spoiler-ish. Much better trailer than the US release, imo. This one gets me more excited than the last.
