New Predator Film...

[THUGGEDOUT]

If Robert Rodriguez is going to be doing this then I am excited for this, I enjoyed the first and second Predator films and I think Rodriguez will give us a decent Predator film instead of that AVP ********...

20th Century Fox has already set a July 7, 2010 release date for Robert Rodriguez's Predators, which the studio promises to be "a bold new chapter in the Predator universe."

Rodriguez officially announced the project just yesterday, calling the project "a reboot of the 'Predator' series." Rodriguez previously wrote a Predator 3 that was then discarded because it was "too big."

Sweet, I loved the older Predator films, the AVP ones were pretty lame even though it sounded like a good idea at the time.

it'll be interesting to see who they pick to play the protagonist

Predator 2 sucked balls, the first one was amazing. It needs Arnold covered in mud he's awesome.

Don't know how they're going to pull this one off, but I've got my fingers crossed

The original Predator is one of my favourite action flicks.. The sequel wasn't anywhere near as good, but alright - and the AvP series I have enjoyed, but its a completely different direction.

Would like to see something more like the original but don't know who they'd get to fill Arnie's shoes.

Yeah thats true, long gone are the days of the beefy action heroes who shoot anything and save the day It would be interesting to see where its going to be set as well. They've had it in a jungle, then a city....

Sweeeeeet!!! A reboot sounds really interesting. Is it going to be a sort of remake of the first, or a prequel? Hmmm...

Rodriguez has a pretty solid track record and he's not afraid to throw around gore either. This might just turn out good.

I wonder what his Predator 3 was like... "too big" sounded really cool, especially with Predators in mind.

[Kopkiwi]

Interesting. A complete reboot? Big shoes that Arnie has left behind.

Like someone said above, I wont what the setting is going to be.

July 2010 is pretty close, only 14 months.

[RedDragon7]

July 2010 is pretty close, only 14 months.

They MUST be shooting sometime this summer/fall. That's pre-production and casting still to go since its only just been announced.

I'm betting they'll start shooting around August.... rough guess. So summer time for the pre-production work and all that.

They've had it in a jungle, then a city....

desert? middle east war zone? afghanistan?

[HWMbrogden]

desert? middle east war zone? afghanistan?

Of course it will be one of those. What about the arctic?

[Sylar]

Maybe they will go for a mix of the city and the jungle and set it in the country with forests and little communities

[RedDragon7]

Of course it will be one of those. What about the arctic?

They've already been to the arctic in AVP. Besides that, there's nothing there, and no real challenge.

I wouldn't complain if they went back to the jungle Haven't really done desert either though.

Own that film on DVD and Blu, special editions.. Too cool. Some awesome stuff in the making of too

[DayWalker]

they kinda did that with AVP
different movie I know... nonetheless its been done.

[[valium]]

as long as its not another corny, bad acting AVP..
all is well.

[darky89]

Hmmm. I'm not to sure about this. Like said, you don't tend to get old school action films anymore... they will end up putting too much story and character development in.
However Robert Rodriguez has done some good films. Planet terror was awesome! Sin City is just sublime.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1424381/ looks like it's simply called Predators. And slated for release for 2011.

[Pestilence]

Arnold's got one more in him. He did do Terminator 3.

[RedDragon7]

I think you mean the opposite.

[HellsJester]

Robert Rodriguez is one of my favorite directors.
Loved Desperado, From Dusk Till Dawn, Sin City, Planet Terror, and i hope Machete gets completed someday.
So im willing to give him a chance on the Predator series.

[Ixion]

This sounds awesome. The first Predator is one of my favorite movies and Robert Rodriguez has made some good flicks as well.

I'm interested to see how this turns out....

[MAJOR1234]

Predator 3 should be good, as long as its not like AVP2 where everything so dark and you cant even make out who's who.
