I dodged it at the cinema, but there was no avoiding The Predator forever. Join me as I break down the movie that pretty much sums up everything wrong with the modern film industry.

Autism can have different ways and degrees of expression, so I think the Drinker's point was more that in the movie it was over the top and mixed with traits that would totally not vibe with autism. Maybe there still is merit to using the term "Asperger" to contrast to other forms of autism because that could help not lump everything together. Plus, with our crazed society these days, there might even be overdiagnosing and glorifying and all kinds of messiness, so it is prudent to not jump to conclusions and to avoid easy labels. There is a very good TV show - Sherlock - that shows what potent upsides autism can have, so the 'autism superpowers' thing is not just a joke, of course, but a rare and extreme expression that likely also takes devoted practice to develop to such a level.

@@Xavier28200 There is a memorable scene from Beautiful Mind where Nash tries a bluntly direct pickup line on a woman and gets slapped, but he isn't disheartened but grins. That is so important to me because it sheds light on the difference between not understanding social norms and understanding them all too well but not liking them. Nash was basically toying with what he understood very well. This can lead to nasty gaslighting by a societal norm of basically teenage angst management, i.e. if you don't follow awkward rituals for trying to manage social anxiety and trust issues and such, you could be more or less misdiagnosed.

Terminator Salvation did this constantly, it pissed me off. The terminator in the first movie wouldn't think twice about ramming its fist through you, ripping out your throat, or snapping your neck, but in Salvation it tosses people around because they need to live to be in the original..

The best part of the original is they acted like real people. They joked around in the beginning because they knew they could beat the terrorist people. It was easy. But then when they realized that people were dying and they didn't know what was killing them, they looked genuinely freaked out. It was realistic to how people would act in that situation.

I loved it. I never thought to look at it on the Tomatometer as I assumed all could agree it was a decent scifi/action/horror instalment. It stayed true to the original whole building on the lore and background. In addition, it wasn't overly repetitive in that the setting of a city hunting ground made for numerous new situational scenes. The CIA angle was clever and we'll cast -- I like Gary Bussy. The final showdown was different while at the same time still pushed the protagonist to his limit. For reasons I don't recall, I eventually wound up looking it up on Rotten Tomatoes and I recall being stunned by its reception. Even today it sits at an abysmal 31%. Who knew? I guess my taste is lacking.

@BLAIR M Schirmer But what you've just described is not being political, it's being genuinely progressive. Like, in the good sense, not the toxic meaning that word now carries. If you put a black person as your lead actor for no other reason than you want to, or he/she is the most suitable actor for the part, then that is not being political. Other people may come along and see it through a political lense, but as we see nowadays you can choose to view anything through a political lense if you want to. Anyway, the word here really isn't political but ideological. Films are being made with an ideology that seeps through not just the writing but the casting, the marketing etc. Where we're supposed to clap when we see a woman or a minority involved in a movie regardless of talent or suitability, and regardless of whether things have actually progressed any. Sorry I'm basically agreeing with you I just think the word political is a bit misleading or ambiguous.

Besides that, the characters are astronomical stupid and endanger themselves with very poor decisions. Jason and Michael can’t be killed because of voodoo magic.

micheal halloween did take elements from reality like serial killers did like stalking their victims around, and it was just the start of the story at the time it got popular i’ll admit that him being shot and getting stabbed in the neck is unrealistic but we didn’t know he was controlled by magic until later sequels, and the rest of the movie doesn’t have anything else far fetched about it, what helped is watching his perspective view while he watches people in their homes through windows before he kills them, what made halloween feel more real besides micheal being a mere human before the sequels is the possibility of things like this can happen, any creep with a mask can have evil intentions and look in your window and enter your home to kill you, what im saying is halloween besides those two scenes of micheal some how not dying is realistic and it became popular because of the realism now let’s go to the first friday the 13th, only thing of the first movie to be fictional is jason coming back to life but it’s obviously a thing put in the film to make more sequels to make more money, but anyways, first the murder scenes aren’t unrealistic it’s all just stabbing, second i feel there’s a hidden mental health message in the film, Pamela voorhees went on a killing spree to whom ever came to the camp because in her mind it’s avenging jasons death, and i feel that she suffered quite hard trama after jasons death which i believe she became so broken after her son died a unjust death and took matters into her own hands to kill anyone who comes to the camp, what helps my opinion out is the fact is in several parts of the movie she kept saying “kill her mommy kill her”, this proves there’s nothing super natural about this but Pamela is a mentally broken person who believes jason tells her to murder others, and besides the ending nothing really seems unrealistic all it really is a crazy woman that lost her mind after loosing her son and killed to avenge her son, that’s why these two first films are successful since they both can happen people become broken and can loose their minds when losing someone important in their lives and serial killers are obviously real and are a real threat even if you’re in your house while they watch you and try to enter and kill you

Duncan, that’s cuz you operate in the real world. These movies never show the troubles experienced by folks with autism. You know, the sensory overload, the stimming, the intense fascination with very specific subject matter. No, they show “weaponized autism,” where the person is a mega-genius withnear super human mental abilities. I am not autistic, but I have a friend who has Asperger’s. He finds movie portrayals of autism as annoying as I do.

Am I the only one who liked “Predators”? Who thought the idea of the Predator fighting different kinds of legendary or menacing enemies with their own special abilities was an awesome idea? Not to mention as skeptical as I was, I thought Brody put on solid muscle to look the part, and convincingly played a tier 1 operator. I could completely see him doing it all.

I actually own it and I think they made a huge mistake in the final version by leaving out all the deleted scenes that come with the purchase. They add tremendously to certain characters - especially to Alice Braga's Isabel. I also think Brody did a good job. Overall, the movie has so much unrealized potential that I wish I could rewrite and then make the awesome movie it could have been.

They filmed exactly two shots, and then they sent it back. That's when they shut down production and had SWS do a whole new creature design in very rapid fashion.

I loved Predator 2. It gave total respect to the original, while being unique and original. Danny Glover was a completely different protagonist with a completely different approach to the antagonist. Usually in a sequel, when you can't get the original lead actor, they cast a KNOCK OFF actor with similar features to the original actor. Predator 2 broke every trope of the so-called blockbuster sequel and made a film that stands on it's own while still retaining deep links of continuity to the original film. It even has it's own memorable scenes and lines worthy of the original film. I highly recommend people give it a watch
