Disney is planning to reboot the Predator movie franchise

The last movie wasn't very good over all. I doubt Disney can do better except for special effects to be fair.

Unfortunately every Predator film since the original feels like a reboot, (for the most part) ignoring previous installments, rehashing over elements that worked, while failing to establish any type of progressive storyline. Its the same concept over and over again. 

The original Predator should have either been entirely standalone....and would have been a cult classic built around the ambiguity and mystery of that one time Yautja incursion. 

Or developed with an actual plot in mind. Something that raised the stakes of Predator incursions towards an actual end-goal. 

In fairness Predators was a step in the right direction. It gave us something new, and expanded the buildworlding of the franchise, while also giving us new characters with some continuity that could have been pursued further. But it failed to raise the stakes in any meaningful way, probably less so as it was on another planet.

The Predator has erased that thread, while admirably trying to raise the stakes with the whole Super-predators wanting to destroy humanity angle. But then self-imploded with the ridiculous Ironman Anti-Predator suit that entirely undid everything the film attempt to do. 

Good luck Disney. If you take this route plan it well.

>>while failing to establish any type of progressive storyline.<<

I think this is a huge plus. The absence of a through storyline / character allows to create a variety of stories, avoiding the analogy with Ripley and the "legacy" of the previous parts. Any sequel with dubious elements can be cancelled without consequences.

>>Super-predators wanting to destroy humanity angle<<

No. This is just a generic sci-fi plot about alien invasion. Predator should remain just an athlete-hunter, a collector of skulls.

Dang Disney back at it again.

I think the PLOT to The Predator was not BAD as far as a Synopsis, the Execution was POOR though...

I actually thought Predators was Decent, i have Gone-Off the Sequel (Predator 2) a bit..  while i still think its Decent...

I feel Predator was almost a Perfect Movie, i dont think it needs a Reboot at all.   We could have Alternative Sequels to that Movie that are Set 2-5 years after, and are Secret Missions that are Covered up..

I also think we could have a Predator Movie that is SET in the Future.... WHY-NOT!  ....  2035, 2065... or even 2095 etc

I dont think they should REBOOT the Franchise... but knowing Disney i would NOT be Surprised.
