Personally I’m not that fussy when it comes to “aliens brutally killing people” movies so I’ll happily sit down and rewatch any of them, but we can probably all admit that the first one is still the best. It’s going to be as good.”Īdmittedly, most if not all of the Predator films have their champions – even the AvPs. I think this is a worthy complement to the first one. I feel like we kind of never got back there again.

Right? I feel like the first one was a wonderful, interesting movie and I know what worked about it. “It’s going to be, I believe, the second best – or the first… or it may be equal to the first one. He does seem pretty convinced that the Skull has struck gold by going back to basics, though.
