Hey you forgot the concept arts of the female predators
Great stuff Xeno_Alpha, thanks for that link!
and I like the Predator with a top-knot...
I would love to see an in-depth documentary about the pre-production on Predator. In the same style as the Alien Quadrilogy/Anthology. Predator 1 & 2 are my second favorite films.
Look at this one:
Picture from Predatorium.com Predator concept art gallery.
It does, doesnt it!
I'm glad they decided on the now familiar concept, but it's always very interesting to learn more about the evolution of a design.
Spooky.....the Pred inside that helmet looks rather like an angry Giger Space Jockey!
And to Stan Winston for bringing the Predator to life.
That is an interesting picture, you can read different things into it.
^Took the words right out of my mouth, Chris
This is awesome! Great job!
Looks wonderful, and he really stands out against the beautifuly coloured skyline! ;)
CHRIS PICARD - Oh, gosh! "Stick around"? Hahaha! Goofball! What is this f@$&ing tie business? ;)
@Lord Tyrant no, its just what i named it ;) (hunter above hawks/ hunting humans)
desert i dont know if is a good idea..i prefer in the jungle/home base of the predators,that i want to see. And don't forget the action,i want badass predators.
That is a damn fine poster!
@Chris Pickard... it looks like arnie's sillowette :D
that poster is amazing
Don't forget, The Terminator was on a smaller budget but grand, implied themes going-on off-screen and story telling that sets-up story arcs and characterization that Cameron picked-up upon, exploited and put the accelorator on resulted in Terminator 2 which was excellent in its own right as a film.
I thought Adrian Brody sucked in Predators, but then again I didn't really like much in that movie at all. The character was unlikable literally leading everyone into a trap so he could get a look at the predators. On top of his bland acting. He might work is serious films but a movie like Predator requires some over the top acting. Loved Arnold and Danny in their respective leads; much more fun to follow that Adrian Brody ever was.
James Franco might work, depends what they do with it. I won't criticize him till I see the movie, but not something that I hate right off the bat.
I HATED, I absolutely HATED Adrian Brody in Predators!!! I UTTERLEY HATED Adrien Brodys casting and I fucking DETEST already the idea of a weedy James Franco in a franchise that is based upon hewen from granite muscle. Three Hundred Spartans-type grizzly Human aggression pitted against inter-galactic alien aggression!!
Once again, they're getting away from the core-subject matter that made PREDATOR so-fucking-EXCELLENT!!!
James Franco as a supporting role in the veign of Hawkings or something from the first f8lm or Poncho then thats fine! But as the main lead, WHY won't the Rock - Dwayne Johston do it, or Gerard Butler, Idris Elba even! Giving it a twist of sorts. Even include Dave Baustia as a kind of Blain character who probably turns-out psycologically like Mac.
I would go so-far as to say why not Jamie Foxx for a Carl Weathers 'Dillon'-like character without copying it to-much the same. What about Samuel L. Jackson being part of proceedings like the General at the begining of Predator or him as a Carl Weathers-like character similar to Dillon too maybe.
Brody was great because he's a great actor. I guess the role probably wouldn't require a great actor, but yeah, Franco is just kind of lame. He just comes across as James Franco in every role.
@Patient Leech, I actually remember thinking Adrian Brody was an odd choice for Predators. But, he turned out to be alright. I've stopped jumping the gun with casting until I've seen some footage, sometimes actors can surprise you.
As for Schwarzenegger, as far as we know, he could still reprise his role or at least show up in a cameo. Nothing official has yet been released to confirm or deny that.
Yes, we need Schwarzenegger back!
Agree with Leech. Franco is lame! What happened to Schwarzenegger???
Hmm it would be interesting to see Franco in the lead role. As Membrane pointed out, pretty much anyone can beef up for a role, but will they really be able to turn in a good performance. I like him as an actor and I think he can do it, but it would be a departure from his normal role type.
I have to say, Bale being in The Predator? Oh man that would have been great.
******EDIT*****
OHHHHHHHH I thought the article said Dave Franco for some reason. OhHHH maaaan I have to tell you guys, I am (for some odd reason) OBSESSED with James Franco.
My comments about this being a departure from his normal role still ring true haha
If Franco hits the gym to "look" a little more the part of a combat vet/leader, I suppose his acting could carry the part. Although, Bale has proven, to me at least, in previous roles he could pull it off. I wasn't sure about Adrian Brody, but he was decent in the last one, which is why I feel the acting is most important. Anyone can hit the gym and improve their physique to match the stereotypical military/action look. But then again, Shane Black was in 'Predator' and was thin. Who knows... :-p
Good lord, those are ALL bad choices for a Predator movie. Adrian Brody from Predators was great, I thought.
I just hope that it's rated R. The Predator is quick, cunning, fast and intelligent and most of all there is a large amount of believability.
Nice. But would have been so much better with a transparent no eyed cowl.....
Predator riding a Xenomorph T-Rex. Your argument is invalid.
It should be noted the budget is said to be "above" 20 million. I don't think we need to he concerned about the film's budget, Black and Fox are in agreement, The Predator is going to be an event film - big bucks.
Given the proposed scope of the movie, this is a real shame. It would make things tough for any director, but not impossible!
I wish Shane the best of luck, and am looking forward to the end result.
I've also been thinking about this franchise and how they can bring Danny Glover and Arnold in the same screen since Shane Black has written work with both actors in previous films (lethal weapon saga). Maybe give Arnold the role as Dutch being held responsible for his squad disappearing in the jungle, bcuz someone has to be accountable for something like that and a retired detective Harrigan becoming the hermit role, losing his mind and obsessed with what had happened to him during his jurisdiction in L.A. And locates Dutch in a maximum security prison or somewhere like that and both characters discuss among one another about what they have discovered and found as souvenirs and also giving the audience an opportunity to flashback to a 1715 era, where a character called Rapheal so-&-so (name engraved on the old school pistol from Predator 2) maybe even exploring his brief encounter with the predator race???and also introducing a female yautja???(google it, if you don't think it's a bomb idea) would love to see a female bodied predator with a badass mask and swords, and advanced tech, etc... this is just my idea that I think someone more honorable can add more too, but to be perfectly honest, I will be happy with whatever move Shane makes as long as they invite "BOTH" Arnold and Danny Glover bcuz the original predator movies were classics to me and many others that can relate and if your gonna bring back one icon for the sequel? Why not hit two birds with one stone???? "The door swings both ways...."
