Heat and Conflict is the name of the game here, this film would make the Yaujta look scary and threatening not that they looked scary before but to put in the fear back in the Predator which two of the first films and Predators achieved perfectly. Yeah the second film got to not mention the Predator Killer.   

I'm still waiting for some new Predator games for PC and consoles, like sequels to Predator: Concrete Jungle and Aliens vs. Predator from 2010. I'm also surprised they never made some form of video games based on Prometheus, Alien: Covenant, and The Predator by the way.

Or have it on a desert planet with Colonial Marines and Weyland-Yutani being involved! <3

I love these concepts and would love to see them on-screen, however they would probably not have worked for this film, so it was good they didn't go with these.

Well, I think what the desert is the perfect place for another Predator movie. Main reason - deserts is hot, and predators like the heat. I don't remember the title, but I read a comic book with deserts and bad blood predators. It was great.

Anyway - next movie must ignored Predator Killer. Because this feature destroy conception about humans as victims.

It would on one hand been interested in seeing them, but on the other it would maybe have not been ideal, but we have seen Predators work with Humans/Respect them in Prior Movies.

The Monkey looks more Creepy....

It kind of does look a bit of the Cloverfield Monster though.

The Plot Reveal about the Predators Genetically Engineering Life does open up the Door to many different Hybrids, but this essentially is similar to the Engineers Plot from the ALIEN Franchise?

I guess it makes room for a Predators vs Engineers LOL  who can only imagine what Hybrid Horrors both Races have created to use in a Given Conflict....

New Tag Line...

Who ever WINS... were $£"%£&

First concept looks good, but if h ad to be honest it looks too outlandish to be considered a hybrid of a Predator and another alien or earth animal. If anything, it kinda looks like the Predator equilvalent of a crocodile or a gorilla. If it was featured in the film like that, then I'd accept it. If this was a concept that the Assassin Predator replaced, though, then I'm glad it did. Again, looks way too outlandish to be a hybrid of a Predator, or even what it could evolve into in the future. The Assassin Predator caught that you me and I love that design more than this. What else can I say than if anyone hated how the Assassin Predator looked, they'll hate this even more.

With the monkey Predator hybrid... Yea I have to admit did a better job looking creepy as opposed to the either cool, cute, or ugly looking Predator dogs but... I don't know. To me, they could have just brought the Hell Hounds back, and maybe even make them scarier. The monkey I don't think would have worked for hunting (especially in a forest, are you kidding me?) To me, this could have worked to show what other nasty hybrids the Predators cooked up back at their planet. Or, heck, this could have been a part of the whole invasion plot, in which they were going to bring creatures like the dogs and the monkey hybrids to replace the normal animals. That would have made some sense, in my opinion.

It looks too bug like and the eyes seem wrong. It also seems like it would be amphibious somehow.

The monkey has some real possibilities though. They could be an early evolutionary version considering the jungle environment the Predator likes. They could bring all kinds of angry impulsive hurt. 

yeah not a fan of that hybrid concept. It looks sleek, but to much like a Halo Covenant knock-off. 

Monkey Hybrid looks creepy as hell though! Could have made for a formidable little nasty.

I envisage lots of face-ripping and jugular-vein biting 

Glad to read this. Thank you daliens.

"I can bet these posters can get more juveniles in theaters to see The Predator than the official marketing campaign."

That is an easy bet daliens. Love the posters and thank you for sharing.

Great concept art MU/TH/UR. It seems to follow the novels with Predators working with Humans.

I love the concept are because you're able to review details impossible to see in the film. 

Certainly looks interesting.... but it seems more of a Evolution of the Old School, Arcade Gun Shooters..

Like Aliens Extermination.

So you will have Limited Freedom, so its more a On-Rails kind of Shooter, but i guess the Better Graphics and VR Headset will make it feel more Intense and Scary

Yay! I cant wait I bet itll be super awesome! I do pray it comes to ps4 I wanna play that game XD

It would be interesting to see it through the VR POV. This footage looks like a fairly standard FPS. It needs a stealth element at a minimum. So far it seems to be rapid firing at canon fodder or bullet sponges. 

Hi, I just registered here in this blog for getting an answer from passionnated people as you guys are, regarding the end of the last predator movie. I was wondering (I couldn't find it elsewhere):

Has anyone brought the hypothesis that the Predator Killer is actually some kinda facecatcher aiming to implant Aliens in the first human host?

Several hints made my wife and I believe it from watching the movie. The gantlet lies into a black gue very familar to the Alien universe. Then it just jumps on a guy at the manner of a facecatcher to envelop him completly (face included), for no reason, and then drops down on the floor, freeing the guy, exhausted/scared. More importantly, we see the gantlet cavity completly empty lying on the floor, while it seemed not hollow originaly in the vessel (We did not watch it in very high quality, but my wife is certain that there is something moving inside the gantlet).

Can it be as so?

Definitely on the to-buy list!! XD

For Certain Reasons i had not managed to see the Movie yet, so i would be looking to get it when it becomes released on DVD and if it warrants the Blu-Ray i would purchase that at a later date.

I am sure the Book would be a interesting collectors peice however.

Get it. The movie was awesome so its a must buy now kinda of thing.

Amid worst decline in ticket sales at Chinese box office since September 2014, The Predator grabbed another $10M.

Thanks to Screen Daily for the update.

"Fox’s sci-fi action reboot The Predator fell to second with $10m for $29.4m after 10 days. It is expected to surpass 2012’s Prometheus, but probably not last year’s Alien: Covenant."

A full third act would account for roughly 35+ minutes of footage. Even if that 9 minutes includes some of what was deleted, it won't be much.

Like GMan, it's really quite a bummer. There isn't really much incentive to buy this.

Maybe that "Hunting the Predator (9 minutes)" includes some Emissary Predator footage, or at least some daylight original shooting.

I gotta say, I'm normally a completest with franchises I adore, regardless of how weak the film is, but I'll be passing on this. Especially since there doesn't seem to be any sign of the original third act on this release.

Here below is the Google translation from the chinese website  Mtime  regarding the "Iron Blood Warrior" (aka "The Predator") opening weekend in China. Numbers are in local currency, yuan. Enjoy!

"Iron Blood Warrior" premiered in the mainland last Friday, the first week of box office 136 million, easily won the weekly box office champion.

Prometheus and Alien: Contract, which belonged to the Alien Universe in the series of "Iron Blood Warrior", were released in 2012 and 2017 respectively, with box office of 220 million and 310 million respectively. Looking at the current box office trend, the "Iron Blood Warrior" mainland total box office surpasses "Prometheus" is not a big problem, whether it can catch up with "Alien: Contract" is not suspense.

On the other hand, "Iron Blood Warrior" currently scores only 6.0 points on Time Network. It has a large gap with the scores of "Prometheus", "Dimorphism: Contract" 7.5 points and 7.8 points, and the word-of-mouth performance is average.

When the "Iron Blood Warrior" premiered in North America in September, the first week of the box office was 24.63 million US dollars, about 171 million yuan. The film's in-house film market performance is slightly different than the same period in North America. At present, the "Iron Blood Warrior" North American total box office is 50.9 million US dollars, about 354 million yuan, the "Iron Blood Warrior" mainland results may not be able to catch up with this figure.

Thanks, Chris, it's almost as much as it did at home in the opening weekend. One and half month after its worldwide release and in a country where the pirated content is everywhere to be found, it is not such a bad start.

Thanks for the news! I just front paged the news via Variety's coverage, but this is great! Not a huge amount of money but still a good haul!

Hi, still I feel that if you've hired a writer/director like Shane Black you should allow him to have his creative vision and make his movie.  There is a certain expectation if you have become interested due to the trailers that you'll see a certain type of movie.  Retro-fitting a new parallel plot-line onto the pre-existing picture must have been a tough undertaking - no doubt someone like Black was equipped to carry it out, but it would have been easier if they could've left well enough alone. It must've been time-consuming and very pricey to have re-shot like they did. Still with the China opening this weekend (Oct 26th) there is a chance it could become the highest worldwide box office grosser in the series (inc. AVP).  Which would be good news for a sequel.  Perhaps one featuring some of the pre-existing footage that's already been shot! All the best.

Thank goodness that they took that emissary crap out of the film. The movie was bad as it was. No need to make it worse.

I think this depends on how well The Predator does at the Box Office and its Critical Reception and SADLY this has not done too well on both accounts.

But we still have the Franchise, and with the ALIEN one i think its now more likely the NEXT movie from the Predator or Alien Franchise could be a AVP Reboot.

I cant help but think Disney/Fox will pick upon Ridley Scotts WAR OF THE WORLDS comment regarding where he would like to have taken the Prometheus/Alien Franchise.

And so a Aliens vs Predator vs Engineers could be something they could consider... as to continue with Alien Covenant or The Predator may be more risky for them.

We all would have liked to have seen the lifted plot-line from The Predator featuring the Edward James Olmos military general character with the 2 dissident (emissary) yautja teaming up with the human characters and the loonies.  It is a shame that a test audience, that may not even feature sci-fi fans, sci-fi horror fans and/or Predator fans could be allowed to dictate to both Fox and Shane Black what should be in their movie or not.  I was actually looking forward to seeing this sequence, having seen it in the initial teaser trailers, so it seems a shame we'll never see it.  Very disappointing!

That photo is either featuring the actors doubles, or is a fake. Those people standing on the tanks are not the lead actors from the movie, they are merely dressed to look as if they are! Fill us in Kyle Strauts.

Is this in the art book?

I'm hoping all the deleted footage will be on the Blu-Ray, but I heard a rumor it won't be.. :( Time will tell I guess!

Thanks very much!

@Losthunterssanctum, I love the suits! I'm currently building a list of the builders I plan to contact. I will add you to that list!

Hello! I maybe able to assist. I have built 4 suits for myself and clients and have many connections to other suit builders. Cheers!

I can bet these posters can get more juveniles in theaters to see The Predator than the official marketing campaign.

Look up Scott Marshall, Josh Jones and Lee Hurley... they are some of the Predator suit builders. Go from there.

That's awesome.

Thanks for sharing.

It does set up an interesting plot if a sequel is done.  Who are the predators that are helping earth and why?  There's never been much of a back story in the movies about the predators but this is unique.  Hoping that there will be a sequel.
