Haha, hadn't read this thread until now. Is that Carmen Sandiego riding atop Beetlejuice?

No, it ISNT. If you have PAYED attention to movies in the 30's, 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's, '10's like I HAVE, you would KNOW that isn't HER.

IF you put words in CAP LETTERS they mean MORE!!

Looks decent enough to watch, like most movies these days.
By that I mean on TV while I am playing in my sandbox in some game and trolling the internet while my pixels sleep during the night.
There isn't really many great or original movies anymore. Just 5s that appeal to everyone in some way or fashion.
Hollywood probably calls it playing it safe. I call it brain filler.

Welp.

Don't need to see this now.

You got your witty, semi-topical banter with a couple of "badass motherfuckers" (YOU GUYS NOTICE ITS LIKE THE FIRST MOVIE IN THE PLANE BUT THIS IS A BUS HAHAHAHA DID YOU SEE IT NERDS DID YOU SEE IT?!?!?)
You got your "WHAT ARE WE DEALING WITH HERE?!?!" shock moments.
You got Predator screaming a few times and doing his open arm thing.
You got your "oh this the REAL threat so lets band together with Predator and work together because while they might have Conquered Space, us humans are also pretty badass" moments.

This is a "I had a really fucked up night last night and just want to lay on my couch, turn on the TV and be in and out of sleep while I sort of pay attention" movie.


Also, STOP SHOWING THE FUCKING MONSTER IN THE GODDAMN TRAILER!

I'm getting suicide squad vibes from that trailer.
There was no need to show the super predator, what a waste.

I haven't watched any of the trailers, figure they give away the entire movie guess it does.

i'm still going to watch this movie in theaters because fuck you its predator and i have AMC A-List now but man i am going in expecting massive, massive, massive disappointment

everyone was so optimistic when they heard Shane Black, the guy who was IN predator and who did The Nice Guys was gonna do Predator. Those were good times.

Man I like Thomas Jane. I feel bad for him that he is apart of this trainwreck.

Come to the theater lathered in mud, what happens after will be more memorable than the movie.

Who ever decided to show the full frontal of the big predator "end boss type" in the trailer needs to get fired and never work in the movie industry EVER again.
They should have stopped with the hand busting through and pulling the predator out and then left it to be discovered in the movie.
Also i hate it when they put obvious attempts to manipulate emotions into movies, kid is absolutely not needed in the movie unless you cant make me care for the characters any other way.
I will probably torrent this thing.

Agreed, trailer looked fucking great til they showed what pulled the Predator through the wall. Fucking A, I hope it's better.

... that does not seem like a proper firing stance

Don't have any problem with the stance since she's moving laterally and from that distance the stance isn't very important.

I do wonder why she's moving to her right which makes the human Male part of the backdrop and think this is probably the only time I've seen someone indexing a gun who really shouldn't be.

I just don’t get it. How does Shane Black, who has done so much great shit, just completely whiff like this?
