It was great as a kid, but it's aged horribly.

Watched it the other day. I liked it as a kid but now it feels like a Syfy channel original movie

Get the fuck out of here zoomtard.

Anyways, back to talking to the adult men. It's so fucking good because there isn't a single ounce of soi. There's zero fat. It's all action and great atmosphere. A persistent bad ass musical score helps. It plays like a slasher film so it's really fun. Arnie is at his absolute good guy best. The Predator is such a great design and played perfectly. It's a movie that's single purpose to be fun and bad ass.

Based on production values alone it in no way feels, looks or acts like a syfy movie you faggot.

Predator 2 is unironically better.

Watched this without realizing Predator was about Predator. Shit blew my mind when Predator came in

No, but it's long overdue for a re-evaluation. It's a great movie that got way too much shit when it was released.

Alien vs Predator was better

Part 2 is great yes. So is part 1.

I streamed this the other night. Hadn't seen it in decades even though I watch Predator 2 at least once every couple of months.

It was pretty good. I like how the theme of the first two movies was "Regular action movie with stock action movie protagonist, but then suddenly aliens".

Uhh yeah it does. How long has it been since you've seen it?

Perfect subversion of the Action Guy

>bunch of slack jawed faggots in here

disgusting

Best action movie with aliens ever.

I watched it with my gf and that part made her cringe

>I watched it with my gf and that part made her quiver
ftfy

she cringed that you weren't a sexual tyrannosaurus

>Predator 2 is unironically better.

No fucking way

>It's a great movie that got way too much shit when it was released.

It was overlooked because it didn't have Schwarzenegger, who was in the god tier Total Recall that year. It was also considered lacklustre compared to the original, in addition to stealing from the Predator comics without being as good. Ruben Blades and Maria Conchita Alonso are awful. It's one of those movies which people feel deserves reappraisal because it's light years ahead of modern movies, and because it fared poorly against the competition of the time, but there are reasons it fared poorly.

Tony Pope is the shit, though.

Men who aren't beta tranny faggots love Predator. It's one of the greatest action movies of all time.

Because the movie edged well. They didn't feel the need to blow their load early.

Straight forward, not bloated at all. Urgent pace every scene.

terrible opinions

Die Hard is better in every aspect.

It actually holds up better and is better than most modern action movies.

Reminder that McTiernan made a consecutive trilogy of perfect action movies within the space of five years

The guy was absolutely on fire in his creative prime

Commando looks really goofy now but this one doesn't

I need to rewatch the hunt fronted October. I saw it in school over the course of like a week so I really didn't like it.

>For red

The basic story- man vs. beast- is timeless
The characters are stock but elevated by the larger-than-life actors playing them
Dialogue is on-point, good balance of quips and realism
Memorable musical score that's evocative without being over-the-top
Special effects handled by a pioneer in the field
Great sound design and mixing
Location shooting in a beautifully-photographed rainforest, no sound stages
Relatively arty direction for its genre

There's so much testosterone emanating from it that it raises any man who watches it
