I'd like to thank DanielPlainview and his Inception |OT] for inspiring me to make this thread - and giving me a good template to work from. Guess Rottenwatch threads are going out of style. Stick around.
A motley assortment of killers and, ahem, "badasses" are snatched from the surface of the Earth and dropped into an alien rainforest. It soon dawns on them that they're on some kind of safari planet - and they're the prey. In what many are - perhaps optimistically - claiming as "the true sequel to Predator" after Danny Glover's rumble in the concrete jungle and a couple of critically panned star-crossed crossovers, producer Robert Rodriguez and director Nimród Antal have set out to do with Predator what James Cameron did with Alien. Speaking of Mr. Cameron, the safari planet setting of Predators is not a million miles away from Pandora (albeit less neon); with many dangerous creatures populating the planet alongside the humans - including (but not limited to) carnivorous plants, pred-hounds, new "beserker" predators and the classic predator him(?)self. If there's ever going to be a true sequel to the 1987 classic, this'll likely be it.
