Now that the hit Hulu prequel Prey has proven there’s some hunt left in the Predator franchise, Awfully Good Movies is taking on the previous entry from 2018 that forced it to reboot in the first place: Shane Black’s The Predator!
The same year Shane Black co-starred as the joke cracking Rick Hawkins in the original Predator, his script for Lethal Weapon became as big a hit as Predator was and the rest was history. But 31 years later, after Black came back as a director with Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Iron Man 3, 20th Century Fox asked Black to return behind the camera and make the Predator sequel to end them all…which, unfortunately, it nearly did. Sure, having the story focus on a ragtag group of PTSD afflicted veterans led by Boyd Holbrook who must save the earth from two visiting Predators sounds like a promising setup, but the rest of this plot sucks all the promise out of it.
There’s an autistic child who’s being sought after by the Predators because his Asperger’s makes him the next step of the evolutionary chain. We have an evil government agent who thinks the Predators want to steal the boy’s DNA before climate change potentially kills humanity off. Then come a couple of genetically altered “Predator Hounds” whose evil rage can be turned off with a bullet to their head. But what there isn’t is an Arnold cameo, or a deleted cameo from Shane Black’s sex offender buddy as a horny jogger creeping on Olivia Munn, and the film’s original third act has been reshot after poor test screenings and leaked set photos.
While the final result isn’t without fun to be had, it’s definitely a good thing this franchise went back to square one after this loud CGI-packed sequel nearly skinned this franchise alive. When it comes to making modern day blockbusters, Shane Black might just be getting too old for that shit.

There are definitely movies that are AWFULLY good. The Predator (2018) is not one of them. A prime example of what studio interference can do to ruin a film. Glad Prey was able to redeem this franchise in a strong way.

Having seen the film multiple times, and read both the novelization, as well as the first draft of the script, here’s some insight into things that were cut/rewritten Original 2016 Script: -There’s another “Loonie” named Cutter, who is in a wheelchair, whom the group goes to upon escaping with the bus. He supplies the crew with the RV and their weapons. He would survive the film as he’s not active in the climax. -Lynch is actually named Nettles, The Nettles character being called “Flyboy” -Sterling K Brown’s character answers to a character named General Woodhurst, played by Edward James Almos, who shot all of his scenes, but all of which were cut. -You’ll notice how it randomly goes from night to day during the climax, and this is because there’s an entire act of the film between these two points that was removed. In all three existing versions of the story, the characters end up at the Predator ship, where Traeger threatens to kill Rory. Only in the original cut of the film, Once Rory is brought into the ship, the pods the Predator was carrying open, revealing several Predator/animal hybrids who proceed to kill Traeger’s men. Traeger dies minutes later as Woodhurst shoots him in the head. He reveals himself as a good guy, who takes the characters to a military base, Predator ship in tow, Where he reveals he knows why the first Predator was here, and he was bringing the “ark” full of hybrids to Earth so that they couldn’t be used in humanity. This is where we find out about two other Predators who are living in the base; Refugees on the side of the fugitive Predator who want to help humanity. The base is attacked by the hybrids, The Loonies having to escort the Predators via convoy to their ship, which is most of the loonies originally die. Glimpses of this sequence are actually shown in the first trailers of the film. They get to the ship, in the middle of a baseball field, but ultimately the refugee predators die which makes it kind of pointless. This is where the Super Predator kidnaps Rory, just as in the film, taking off in the ship over the forest This is where the main reshoots end, as the three surviving loonies jump on the ship just like in the film. The Predator ship is actually intercepted by military jets during the sequence, all of which are destroyed. Nebraska is killed when a shot from one of the jets hits the ship, vaporizing him, Which would’ve been very underwhelming. Film ends in the woods after the Super Predator is killed, and Dutch arrives in a helicopter to recruit the characters. Arnold ultimately refused to do the cameo, so it was never shot. Reports suggest test audiences didn’t like the hybrid storyline, and likely, how nearly the whole cast dies during the convoy sequence, hence why it was cut, and with it, the whole reason for why the Predator was here in the first place, a new 3rd act being filmed, hence why it all happens so fast, Leaving what was once a major plot point in the Predator ship, to be resolved as a pre credit scene. Shane Black would go on to claim these reshoots were simply meant to take the climax that was filmed in the day, and do it again at night. Which based on what is now known, was likely a cover story. To reiterate how last minute the movie was redone, the toy company NECA actually manufactured and released figures for the Refugee Predators (called Emissary Predators), which are still available for purchase despite them not being in the movie at all. The novelization which was released a few weeks before the film, is based on the rewritten draft that is essentially the movie, but quite revealingly shows there was a second round of reshoots, as there are countless key differences: -There is no mention of global warming in the novel, showing these lines were added later -The scene with Casey and the creep at the park is present -The Loonies’ superpower of summoning vehicles is explained, Nebraska stealing the cop car from the cop responding the house Rory blows up, The RV full of weapons being bought by Lynch at the motel in exchange for the motorcycles, hence why there’s random confederate flags all over its interior. -Jake Busey’s character dies, the Predator ripping his head off, and using it to open a door. The Predator who dies at the school isn’t killed on the car, Rather he is lynched inside the school by the Super Predator, to the point where he is decapitated. -Traeger’s death via shoulder canon is explained. His leg is set on fire from the super Predator, and seeing it, makes him panic, triggering the gun to fire, killing him. -Traeger doesn’t shoot the soldier who loses his arm, rather the soldier stays behind and is killed by the Predator -Coyle distracts the Super Predator with another joke “What’s the difference between a golf ball and a clitoris?” But he doesn’t say get to say punchline which he remembers is: *A guy may actually find the golfball* -Keegan Michael Key isn’t disemboweled by the Predator, instead only losing a leg. And instead of shooting eachother, Coyle shoots Baxley while he’s impaled, before dying himself. -Nebraska’s death once again happens on the force field of the ship, only he simply slides off and dies. So the final version in the film is actually superior, giving his death purpose. -Upon defeating the Super Predator, the novel ends with them looking up into the sky, McKenna saying “Come and Get us Motherf*ckers” This is also shown in the trailer for the film. This means the new scene with the suit in the pod was shot well after the book was finished, and rushed together with less than two months of the film’s release. There were obviously two other versions of the scene shot, one with Newt, and with Ripley. Dutch at no point was considered to appear in the pod, as this scene was filmed in 2018 And Arnold rejected involvement before the film went into production in 2016.

The Predators plans of gene splicing to create "Super Predators" to take over Earth is what really turned me off to the movie. The Predators of the previous movie never wanted to take over the world. They were just trophy hunters, hunting down the universe's most dangerous game for sport and killing themselves if sid game defeated them in combat. The ONLY Predator that didn't have this motivation in the franchise was the Wolf Predator from AVP: Requiem, who was tasked with cleaning up the mess that the Predators of the first AVP film created when they brought their fallen comrade back to their ship. He still killed humans, but only those that got in the way of him trying to take out the Predalian and the six Xenomorphs that were originally on the ship. The Predators on general are just proud assholes, and I don't think they'd want to juice themselves up with gene splicing but rather rely on their own skills and tech to take down humans whom they perceive as worthy kills.

This film was such a let down. Fox obviously did their part in ruining it, but even if Shane Black got to make the full film he wanted, you could just tell it was going to suck. It never resembled a Predator film. You would think someone so intimately involved in the first film, he would get what made it so good. This isn’t a buddy cop, team up, joke fest franchise. He’s great at that stuff, but, man.. read the room. The blueprint was laid there for you with Predator and Predator 2.. live in that space and you’ll be good. For the hate that Predators gets, at least that felt like a predator film, but this thing was just trash. With Prey, they showed you how effective a small, intimate hunt film could be, because they understood what made the the original so loved and said “ok let’s do something like that” and boom, you got a hit. Shane Black made the worst Ironman and Predator films.. damn.

@@cjewe1z It’s a humanoid alien that uses weapons similar to ours, blades/shooting weapons. It think it’s on par with part 1 & 2 considering they could do more with the Predator with the use of cgi on top of the practicals where as the original two had to mask a lot with camera angles etc just to put the best product out possible with where they were at at the time technically. If Hopkins and McTiernan made their films today, I’m sure you would see similar actions simply because they have the tools to do so. “Predators” took the less is more approach with the way they used the predators and many felt that film suffered for it. Prey did a great job of balancing what the original did while giving the audience of today something they’re accustomed to.

@@canislupusfool Its a debate to be had. My disappoint with AvP series stems from its setting and contrived story. Once again trying to give the Predators/Yautja some kind of hokey connection to humanity beyond us just being good prey. The setting is also awful as it makes little sense geographically, geologically, historically, etc. Also from the fact that it did not deliver what I feel the majority of people wanted to see; Aliens vs Predator vs Colonial Marines. The fact that they did not use any of the comics, books or games as inspiration was very disheartening. And then there is the design of the stumpy and chubby Predators. At least Requiem brought back the proper design for the Yautja and actually featured some cool gadgets. In the end putting The Predator above AvP is really like placing a, and pardon me for the colorful term here, a dog turd on top of a pile of bullshit. They are all terrible.

To be fair if one were to read the comics and novels: The Predators are the most complex alien races ever. They’re interesting as villains but more interesting if they’re depicted as anti-heroes. Hell, they’re the last line of defense against the Xenomorphs in the AVP comics and there would be squads of Preds and Marines working with each other.

Still worse than the AP movies, in my opinion. The humor was worse. The characters were more cliche and cringeworthy. The decisions were vastly worse, both in universe and without. The Predator's actions were by far less intelligent and more nonsensicle. The blink-and-you miss it killing of Sterling Brown's character was one of the worst thing in any of the Predator movies , ever. Worst. Ever.

That’d be too complicated. How would they know earth’s future would fall to sky net? Assuming they have time travel tech (which I wouldn’t doubt they would), they’d have to have a pred go back in time and save either A terminators targets and expose themselves OR hunt a terminator in the shadows , in which case they’d never be seen. If anything they’d love the hunt of terminators as worthy prey, at least some tribes would. It just invites a bad script

A Predator movie frm a predator perspective should be interesting, with more light into their culture, the reason for the hunt and honor, their philosophy, their view on earth and humans and xenomorphs,and other beings their scientific and academic community , the social structure , emotional stakes for an individual predator viz a viz the honor code, friendship, love,family, parents, children, mates etc. Why sm of them go bad blood, whats their struggles like smthing in that line with an underdog predator rising up the ranks, or a disgraced predator redeeming himself. May be as a trilogy start with the freedom from Umangi story, Predator, 'Rise of the Yautja'. Then their first encounter with xenomorphs, later visits to earth tying together the canon predator movies.

I just watched The Predator and Predators the other week for ths first time, and i like The Predator way more. Predators is boring and takes itself way too seriously. None of the characters are likable or relatable. I think people only think its better than The Predator because its not as goofy. But thats part.of the charm of The Predator. Its a good bad movie. The supporting cast is likable, and its laugh out loud funny. Its not without its faults, but i thought it was way more fun and has.more rewatch value than Predators

Also instead of a steroided out predator it woulda made more sense for it to be one of the berserker tribe.. plus, it would of flowed better to make the crazies, McKinna's unit from the jump and just have them all get captured in Mexico, then we can have them tell their back stories to Olivia Munn instead... And drop the kid and just make someone on the team the "rain man" who figures out how to operate the tech

This film was oozing with potential. I'm not sure whose fault this was...the studio heads with no narative creativity demanding of the actual creators to show certain things...even if they're stupid...or...a gross misunderstanding of predator lore on the part of Shane black. Given that Shane black was one of the writers for the original film...I lean towards pointing my finger at the studio heads but at the same time...Shane black never attempted to get ahead of it. Things not needed in this story that actually made it cringy and stupid...far to much of this. 1. The comedy. Really? Umm..no...not to the level it was done. It completely flattens any tension they were hoping we'd feel while watching this. 2. The stupid kids arc. Lame AF and awful. It's actually worse than trying to buy a 5 ft tall 100 pound lady with stone weapons could overcome and beat the predator...how absurd such a thing would be and they'd never...oh...wait...that's a diff convo. 3. The stupid..."super predator" just because it's bigger...doesn't mean it's better...and again. .they want us to buy the super pred completely schools a normal pred...but can be killed by the 1 note characters this film call.. "our heros?" This film was the "genesys" of the predator story...and like genesys...it preludes one more film to completely destroy itself under the weight of its own soy.

please stop with the nonsense that handicapped people should be played by actors with the same handicap. it's called ACTING for a reason. and when they let actual disabled people play roles in movies, it usually sticks out and takes you out of the movie, because they're simply not good actors a lot of the time. so just stop with this "authenticity" nonsense. actors portraying people with disabilities or people who are gay is actually a good thing, because it increases ampathy.
