Predator vs. Predator 2

the decision to have the predator actually say "motherfucker" is not one i would've made but i appreciate the tastelessness of it, again, total comic book energy

and the whole movie is just very visually inventive, all these luminous masses of blue and orange, the camera often either hanging omnisciently over the scene or locked in extreme-close-up so you see the mists of sweat coming off of everyone's face

I think there was a Steven Segal movie that came out the same year as P2 with ridiculously ott/bordering on the racially offensive Jamaican caricature gangsters in it, but can't recall which movie - can only remember some writer in The Face magazine commenting on it quite possibly looking like a new bad trend in Hollywood movies.

uh as far as i can remember, no that didn't happen

Aahh but it did..

(quote from internet):
At 1 hour, 22 minutes, and 14 seconds into the film, the Predator is following Det. Harrigan up a ladder leading out of the meat warehouse. Harrigan just removed City Hunter's bio helmet, so there is no way the pred can see in his infra red (or whatever it's called) vision mode, and yet in this specific shot we get a first person view from pussy face in pred vision though he does not have on his mask. Is this an error or can preds see like this without their bio helmets on?

ohhh i think i misunderstood you

marked for death.

has a steven seagal and jimmy cliff collaboration on the soundtrack

i remember thinking predator 2 was total horseshit but maybe i'll have to "rescreen" it

from pussy face?

I just remembered I watched part (all?) of the most recent reboot in a hotel room, and ... what the fuck was that?

spent about a year in reshoots forced on Black and multiple re-edits by the studio

The first scene in Predator 2 with the big drug shoot out was intense in the cinema.

I like the first Predator movie and have no interest in any of the other predator movies.
