2/2 Thoughts: Predators
Channel: Solid shows, feels films & great games
Date: 14/07/2010

Spoiler alert: I reveal a lot of what happens in the movie(and there is a brief spoiler for the third season of Lost, as well, at about 1 minute in; I warn in text before it), including details of the ending; I made this mainly for those who have already watched it. This is where I get into specific stuff of the film. I swear in this, for anyone bothered by such.

Things I meant to say in this video:

- Why does the Predator at the end not just jump over the fire? The one in the original would have.

- Don't you just love how they have Brody mud himself up to do what Arnie did, and then they admit in the POV shots that mud does not, in fact, conceal your body heat?

- How did they talk Doc into running for them and be bait?

- Not that I'm complaining that they didn't do that as it would have bogged the movie down, but why was everyone so happy to just follow what Brody suggested? No discussions, no "why should you be in charge". Even the serial killer, who's been in prison and would most likely not respond well to authority.

- Where was the drama in this? There was no conflict between the main characters, in spite of ample opportunity for it.

- Did anyone else almost laugh when Brody was hacking(read: punishing, in the same clenched-teeth, "I hate the world, myself most of all" manner as he goes about the rest of the film) his way through the plant life with a machete?
