I'm looking forward to it. Adrien Brody, Lawerence Fishburne plus the action looks good. I'm a huge fan of the Predator movies.

Thoughts?

1. I dunno.
.
Robert Rodriguez has done some REALLY good, but relatively cheesey movies.
.
Looks like he probably had a MUCH bigger budget for this... so it's got promise.
.
He did "Sin City", which I think is arguably one of the best movies put out that
year. But... it was animation (kinda).
.
Looking forward to "Sin City 2" and "Sin City 3" is already in production.
.

3. I liked Sin City too. I can't wait for the sequels.
I'm a big fan of Frank Miller's work. Even if he is a bit crazy.

I think this film will succeed or fail based on it's pacing.

2. Predator is one of the more interesting sci fi aliens ever created.
I hope they can do it justice.

4. I love dark sci-fi.
Arnie has been part of some great ones (Predator, Total Recall, Terminator)

I think this film has potential. I love the first and second Predator. The first AvP I could do without but AvP:R was boss.

The Dark Horse comics have given the Predator species some good background.

If you like dark sci-fi, check out Repo Men. It's excellent.
