Predator 3

[DarkKnightJRK]

Bring back Arnie!!

[Darth Rockwell]

With the movie AVP coming out on the 25th I starrted to wonder if it's time for another stand alone Predator film. The first with Arnie was a action/thriller and was IMO one of the best alien/monster movies ever. However the second was so so and became a much more action based movie then anything else.

So if there is a third movie made should they bring back Arnolds or Glovers character? Make all new characters? Be based in the future on a different world? I guess I just want to know what you think about the idea of a third.

As for me well I think they should bring back Arnolds character. He's retired and living alone somewhere and the army comes to reinstate him after a group of eliet soldiers dissaper on a mission somewhere. Desert would be cool or jungle no city. Or another Perdator discovers his fallen commrads ship and sees a picture on the computer of Arnolds character and decides to go revenge on his ass.

[Sava]

Yes bring Arnold back though

[Kable24]

Long long ago I after I saw No Escape I wanted Ray Liotta to play the hero in Predator 3, but that was so long ago. I'd take a new Predator movie though.

[Nero_Ordin]

Get matt damon or colin farell to fight the predator. But what if they did predator in feudal japan fight samuris?

[Jspider13]

Arnold won't do another Predator movie. He's a smart guy. He turned down Predator 2 because he didn't like the idea of the urban Predator and I'm pretty damn sure he saw the reactions to AVP.

The Rock should take on The Predator. Bring it back to the jungle.

[Asr]

The Predator in SPACE dammit! LV1201 would kick ass!

[Kroc1138]

From what I've last read from the development of Pred 3.They wanted both Arnie and Danny Back for it. (personally I Liked bothe of them in the movies) Both did show interest, but from what I know it'sstill in development hell. I'd kill to se both in it.

[Nero_Ordin]

Arnold won't do another Predator movie. He's a smart guy. He turned down Predator 2 because he didn't like the idea of the urban Predator and I'm pretty damn sure he saw the reactions to AVP.

The Rock should take on The Predator gotdamnit. Bring it back to the jungle.

Actually a great idea. I can see the rock fighting the predator.

[Demogoblin]

Yes, with all new characters. I like how the Preds have been hunting humans all over the world for centuries, so a movie set in the past or the future would be cool. I dont think they would have an interest in revenge on Arnold or Danny. Especially not Danny, since I take it that the elder Pred giving him the antique gun at the end of Predator 2 as a sign of respect.

[Kroc1138]

I don't think that they would go after Danny or Arnie for revenge. But for some reason I would like to see both of them in a movie. (but then I prefer Continuity linking) Maybe they could pass the torch to someone else.

But then My idea of a Predator 3 would be a properly done Alien vs Predator.
Maybe some where Along the Lines of this: A Pred ship crashes somewhere on Earth. (preferably in the Jungle) A covert Ops team is sent to collect it's tech (a la Predator 2) but they encounter a different threat. Figuring how Arnie and Danny's Characters can come into play.

[Kroc1138]

To continue. The Sole Surviving Pred is out to hunt the Aliens that killed his crew. In the Jungles, two xenos have made short work of the Covert Ops commando team, leaving only one survivor. The Pred hopes to stop the infestattion of the xenos and aid the lone human in stopping the aliens. The Pred then sacrifices itself with it suicide bomb. Cut to a few years later and a new story arc I'm still working on.

[litlgreendude]

i truly want to see arnold come back : )

[RabbitSamurai]

What would the plot be if one of both came back? I'd like to hear some ideas.

[LastSunrise1981]

I believe The Rock should play the Predator more than anything. He has the moves, he's quick enough, athletic, and plus he's tall enough for the role as well.

I believe if another Predator movie is to happen, then I think it needs to be set in the Predators enviornment. Bring out more Predators and portray the Yajutas and the Hunters the right way. AVP ruined the Predators in terms of depictions, so I hope they get a director like James Cameron or Ridley Scott to do a Predator 3.

[Darth Rockwell]

I don't think James Cameron or Ridley Scott would touch the franchise right now. Both a big name directors now and don't need something like this to help their carrers. If they did it it would be because it was a labor of love and respect to their fanbase.

I'm trying to think of an idea that would bring Arnold and Dan's characters into the same story line. I'll post it when I come up with something. Meanwhile why not take a look at my fan fic of Aliens Vs. Preds over at the fan film/Fic board or check out my Aliens Vs Pred site :-D http://darthrockwell.tripod.com/aliensvspredator/

[Cypher]

Yes, Arnie back for T4 and Predator 4.

My second choice would be Vin Diesel.

[Hunter Rider]

Bring back Arnie!!:up: :up: :up:

[LastSunrise1981]

I believe Arnold will be too old for Predator or Terminator 4. Who should direct a Predator 3? If it does indeed become a reality, I would truly like to see Cameron or Scott direct it. However, I'm open to Ronny Hu or who's another great sci-fi director?

I'm really not familiar with other great Sci-Fi directors. Cameron and Scott really stick out in mind.

I think they should bring back Danny Glover, Maria Conchita Alonso's character, and the woman in the first Predator movie. I believe Glover can still go with action, but with Arnie into the whole politics deal, I just don't see him letting go of that and going into movies again.

[superhuman]

Aww c'mon. Do any of you really want to see Arnold act again??? He's too old now for this stuff, it would look very stupid and it would be idiotic for him to come back.

NEW CAST! It's time for reinvention! The Rock isn't a bad choice, but I would still pick someone more unique. Try a different approach, like an astronaut crashing on their (the Predator's) planet, and trying to survive it. I mean it's time to see their world and see how a human can survive it.

[RabbitSamurai]

....that could be the point of the movie: an aging former hotshot commando is copying with his obsolescence...just as the Predator makes his return.

To answer someone else's question, a good sci-fi director is Paul Verhoeven (RoboCop, Total Recall). It'd be an interesting film with him at the helm.

Excuse my ignorance, but what does "copying with his obsolescence" mean?

Also, yes, Verhoeven would be a good choice to direct.

[RabbitSamurai]

I'm sorry, that should be "coping" not "copying." And what I meant was that he would be getting used to the fact that he isn't as young or virile or lethal as he once was. He's getting used to the fact that he's not the top gun any more....he doesn't like it, but he's accepting it.

And then comes the Predator to kill the guy and he must fight back when he's not in his prime. I think that'd be kinda cool--something like the latter Eastwood movies.

Ya know, that's not that bad a concept, but I, just like many Americans, will have a hard time getting past "Arnold the Governor" to enjoy and take the movie seriously, I think. That is, if you are indeed suggesting an idea that would work for Arnold. In which case, the only film I think I could actually see him return to would be KING CONAN. I dunno, your idea isn't bad, I would just rather see something new and different ya know?

[RabbitSamurai]

I understand.

cool idea Rabbit,:up: I would go for verhoven or proyas either would be good imo

That's an interesting concept :up:

Personally, I want to see the Predators in earlier points in history. I want to see him get that pistol in the old west that he gave to Glover.

[Silver Sable]

A Predator 3? Hmm............Maybe

[RabbitSamurai]

cool idea Rabbit,:up: I would go for verhoven or proyas either would be good imo

Thanks, but who is Proyas?

[The Dark Defender]

Alex Proyas, he directed The Crow and I Robot.

[RabbitSamurai]

Ahhh....

[Lone]

Arnie should be back for Pred 3. I don't mean no disrespect but Glover sucked.

I'd like to see Dutch still struggling to deal with the events of Pred 1...you can't go through shiet like that and not get mentally fhucked.

[KenK]

Am I the only one who finds Predator 2 sorely underrated?(Special Edition DVD comin' out soon!!) I just personally thought it was a great follow-up, especially how it expanded on the Predator mythos in the context of the films. The opening shot is priceless, with the tribal music playing and the panning aerial shot of the palm trees, so you think it's the jungle, then the shot moves up and you see Los Angeles. Glover was great, and Gary Busey's death scene is just hilarious(where's the upper half of his body?!)! And I just find it funny that Bill Paxton is in this, AND Aliens. If anything, that's my only real beef with Aliens vs. Predator, because it seems like it would have made total sense to try and get him in there. And yes, I liked Aliens vs. Predator. A little bloodless, yeah. But it's not like the title was misleading! It's Aliens vs. Predator, and they went at it pretty hard. I also liked the backstory of the young predators coming to Earth to hunt the Aliens as their rite of passage.

As for a new stand alone Predator movie, I'd definitely see it. New characters, maybe in space, but it's not a necessity.

[Darth Rockwell]

The second movie was decent but it tried to hard to be an action flick and keep the same tone and suspence the first one had. IMO it just felt really different then the first. But by no means is it a bad movie, I just preffer the first one.

[Superfreak]

NO arnold, No danny glover, Yes Predator 3

Find a new prey, with different talents from Arnie and Glover. Arnold was a super soldier, Glover was the most badass cop on the block. Find a new concept (military and police as occuptations are eliminated from the choices now).

Setting the movie in the past could be interesting. Maybe WWII in North Africa (where it's hot) or something like that.

[Darth Rockwell]

Didn't AVP destory that aspect of Predators, the having to be hot. I mean it is in Antartica.

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Yes,go to the past!

VIKINGS!!!!!

[Asr]

I don't know what the fascination is with the past, put P3 in space dammit!

Although Preds vs dinosaurs would kick ass...

[Isildur´s Heir]

Yes.....bring a good script, good actors and a good director back ;)

[Darth Rockwell]

I have to say I'm not to keen on the idea of going to the past. Now if they want to put that in book form well I'd read it. But for a movie I think they should just continue on in the world of now and start moving it into the frontier of space.

[The Dark Defender]

Am I the only one who finds Predator 2 sorely underrated?

I definitely prefer the first, but I too find the sequel underrated. I loved the violent city setting, the new weaponary, getting to see the Predator kick the **** out of a bunch of druglord *******s, and the ending was great.

[Darth Rockwell]

I've got Predator 2 on now as I sit here on the computer. It is a decent movie and it works for a second instalment but more needs to be done with the Predators. As for the ending well I wasn't to keen on it, like others have said Arnold's character couldn't kill it but Glovers slightly overweight character could? I just didn't like it.

[The Dark Defender]

Well, the Predator thought he had him worn down and kind of out of it and Glover sprung up out of nowhere; and Arnold did pretty much kill him. He was spitting up blood and barely able to move. He was just as defeated in Predator as he was in Predator 2.
The ending that I was referring too though was the large group of Predators showing up to take back their fallen warriors body and giving Glover's character a centuries old gun to give him an idea of how long they've been around.

That was a great scene and very informative too. I think it would be great to make that into a film. I would love to see the Predators back in the Old West possibly or even in the times of WW1 or 2. Seeing as that gun had to have come from that era right? I'm not a history buff or anything, but I get the impression that maybe the Old West, WW1 or 2 is where that gun came from.

If I had to choose an era to see a Predator 3 movie, I'd want to see them in the WW1/2 setting and see some awesome battles there.

[RabbitSamurai]

Here's what I'd like to see: the Predator in a prison. Nobody gets in and nobody gets out...and one of the guys in there, a normal cop with only the weapons at hand, has a chance of stopping him.

[caretaker14]

How's this;

Enough is enough. That's what the U.S. Government is saying. They've been tracking the Preds for years, and now they're ready to bring the battle to them. They bring together a team of specialists for a secret mission. (I know it's been done before, but bear with me.)

Specialist Actor Ideas

Arnold Schwarzenegger (SP) (Dutch, brought out of an early retirement)
Danny Glover (His character, ready to kick some more Pred-ass.)
Vin Diesel (New character, part of a team of three assassins hired.)
The Rock (Second in command)

That's all I've got. There's fifteen in all. Anyway, the military has located the Pred homeworld, and the team is being sent in a new type of ship (A copy of the Pred's design) to the planet to disable the Pred's ability to travel in space. After flying in space for six months, they come across the planet, and a malfunction forces them to crash land. Stranded, they learn that a rebellion has begun and the Preds are having a civil war. Using their weapons and skills, the team must fight their way across the multi ecosystemed planet to the Pred holy city, where they can board a ship and escape.


The main Predator is Talon, an Achilles-like Pred who has been called upon by the Council of Ancients to quell the rebellion. The other Pred is the leader of the rebellion, known only as Renegade.

Not bad for something I thought up on the spot.

[Flexo]

You need Ron Perlman in there.

[LastSunrise1981]

I believe a WW1/2 setting is a lot better for a Predator movie. It gives the audience an idea of how long they've been around, how many battles they've engaged in, and what kind of warriors they're believed to be.

I'm not truly sold on the idea of people landing on their planet. It sounds a bit too I don't know, I can't really put it into words right now. But it doesn't really sound cool or unique, if anything, a WW1 setting or an apocalyptic futuristic setting is much better for a Predator 3 movie.

As long as Paul Andersen doesn't direct it and has NOTHING to do with it, I'm a very happy man and I'll see it.

[RabbitSamurai]

I would support a war setting, particularly if Michael Biehn were involved.

I do not want the rock or vin diesel in this at all unless they're preds, and little chance the studios are going to cover up those cash cows.

[Darth Rockwell]

Vin or the Rock would be good actors to be in this kinda flick. It suits their acting ability perfectly. I could see either one kicking pred ass.

[RabbitSamurai]

Unfortunately, I disagree, and it's a shame considering that those guys are probably the only decent action heroes around these days.

Man...what happened to the days when we had quality action movies? Like RoboCop and Die Hard?

[Jspider13]

How about...

The Predator against John McClane?

Two franchises directed by McTiernan. Same studio. Same Director.

But it would never happen.

What don't you like about the Rock and Vin? IMO they are going to be the next Arnold and Stallone. They are the up and comming action stars of our generation.

I will say though with the Rock doing Doom I don't see him doing another sci-fi/monster/horror pic anytime soon.

Rock and Vin are the new Stallone and Schwarzeneggers? I highly doubt that and while it's your opinion, I truly don't agree with it to an extent.

What helped Arnold and Sly was their charisma, their physiques, and their ability to become those specific characters. If Arnold didn't have the physique, the presence, or the menancing look for the Terminator it wouldn't have became a cult classic.

With Stallone it's pretty much the same thing with him. If he didn't have the look for Rambo or Rocky, those movies wouldn't have been as successful as they have been. I just don't believe The Rock or Vin Diesel have the presence and the ability to carry a movie like Arnold or Stallone.

[Edd Extraordinaire]

Starring.... The Rock!

[SWAT]

Okay, my take on P3..(if you take this and sell it to FOX.. I'll ****ING SUE YOU!! :p )

Okay. Two brothers and their friends are going on a hunting trip in north america, they drive too a small diner (a serch group is there also..some hunters are missing) by the road (they have too leave the car there) and they walk from there on foot to the cabin. When they get up the mountain they find a big bear strung from a tree. they just think it's some ****ed up hunters in the woods so they walk on..(but something is following them).. they get too the cabin..have fun, talk. the next morning they go out too hunt for whatever they are hunting. one gets killed...a lot of running, killing...THE END

these people are regular people (ex- marines maby)

[Rated R for: Pervasive Brutal Violence, Blood, Gore and Language]

[Darth Rockwell]

SWAT that sounds pretty good and honestly I wouldn't mind seeing that on the sceen. Ever think of turning it into a fan fic?

[RabbitSamurai]

I can;t see the Rock or Vin Diesel doing the equivalent of Rocky--which was made by Stallone himself.

And even Schwarzenegger was able to balance his stony action heroics with deadpan humor in some cases. Not always, and it fell flat in some parts, but he could do it. Vin takes himself too seriously and the Rock's always been a self-parody to me. (Go ahead, try looking at his bug-eyed expression on the poster to Mummy 2 and try not to laugh)

[blind_fury]

Glover and Arnold should be in Alien vs Predator 2. They should play futuristic mercenaries on an earth infested with aliens. Adolescent predators(smaller and faster) are sent to earth as a test of manhood. Glover and Arnold play mercenaries hired by the military to help marines clear out alien colonies that spread to close to the homeland. Meanwhile the younger predators hunt Glover and Arnold to win tribal leadership.

Arnold won't do it since he'll still be in politics by the day P3 is made. And an AVP would be great, as long as Paul Andersen has nothing to do with it. :cool:

[Darth Rockwell]

I don't want to see a modern day huge epic war between Aliens and Predators. The smaller scale works in AVP. Now set in the future somewhere other then Earth would be cool.

[Darth Rockwell]

Well I just got done watching AVP for the very first time and I have to say I don't see what all the fussing is about. It's exactly what I thought I would get from the movie. Two alien species battaling, not real deep in plot but then I wasn't expecting it to be.

Could it have been better, well yeah but for an AVP movie it was good. Can't wait to see if another AVP gets made. I sure hope one gets made with the Predalien. I mean they can't leave us hanging.

One predalien on a ship full of Predators; doesn't seem like it would make a long movie. As for the AvP, it's okay, not good or bad. If I had to rank all of the Predator and alien movies, it would fall into 4th place.
1.Predator
2.Alien
3.Aliens
4.Alien vs Predator
5.Alien Resurrection (the only reason it ranked this high is because of Ron Perlman)
6.Alien 3
7.Predator 2

I would have liked it more if there was better actors, the two predators hadn't been killed within 10 minutes of each other, and less plotholes.
EDIT: Forgot to mention the puffy looking Predators. They need to be fixed.

[Jspider13]

Predator 3.

Back in the jungle/forest. None of this outer space nonsense.

The Rock.

[Darth Rockwell]

Like i've stated before I would enjoy seeing the Rock take on the Predator. It would be cook to see our beloved hunter be able to go on another hunt in his own moive.

[Kroc1138]

To continue. The Sole Surviving Pred is out to hunt the Aliens that killed his crew. In the Jungles, two xenos have made short work of the Covert Ops commando team, leaving only one survivor. The Pred hopes to stop the infestattion of the xenos and aid the lone human in stopping the aliens. The Pred then sacrifices itself with it suicide bomb. Cut to a few years later and a new story arc I'm still working on.

I don't think that they would go after Danny or Arnie for revenge. But for some reason I would like to see both of them in a movie. (but then I prefer Continuity linking) Maybe they could pass the torch to someone else.

But then My idea of a Predator 3 would be a properly done Alien vs Predator.

Regardless of who should be in it, I do think that the scale of the movie should be grander than the previous 2 and yet, be closely linked to the previous two. (Both story and characters)

[skorponok]

I'm ALL for a Predator 3 with new characters.

...and yes, Predator 2 is underrated.

[Jspider13]

...and yes, Predator 2 is underrated.

Yeah, to an extent.

[skorponok]

Yeah, to an extent.

Quick review of Predator 2...very well made but with a poor, obviously rushed script.

[Soljaboy187]

yes to predator 3 with new characters! i deno about brning arnie and glover back, if you go by the comib book storyline dutch is missing and his brother shcaeffer is looking for him er something like that...but yeah i wouldnt mind the rock being in a pred 3. just as long as he portrays who ever he owuld play more serious and not like his portrayal of charaters in his previous movies (exaclty like how he acts in the WWE)

[Venom160]

I just finished watching AVP and I loved seeing the predators in action again. I would love to see a predator 3, with or without Arnold or Glover. Id perfer it if they had a new cast or the chick that survived in AVP to be the lead in Predator 3.

[Kroc1138]

Besides whether some characters should return, what should be the
setting(s) for a Pred 3. Personally, I don't want it to be set in just one place like the first two or it'll just be a rehash of the first two. I think there should be multiple settings. But then my idea is pretty Big and Involves an Alien/Pred Encounter.

[Caliber]

NO arnold, No danny glover, Yes Predator 3

Find a new prey, with different talents from Arnie and Glover. Arnold was a super soldier, Glover was the most badass cop on the block. Find a new concept (military and police as occuptations are eliminated from the choices now).

Fighting knights!!!!

[Darth Rockwell]

With news on the Pred 2 dvd about AVP2 being made do you think we will ever see a Predator 3?

[Jspider13]

If they do they will probably give it to Paul Anderson because he's so damn good.

[cryptic name]

Yes, with all new characters. I like how the Preds have been hunting humans all over the world for centuries, so a movie set in the past or the future would be cool. I dont think they would have an interest in revenge on Arnold or Danny. Especially not Danny, since I take it that the elder Pred giving him the antique gun at the end of Predator 2 as a sign of respect.

that's one thing i never really got my mind around in predator2. if you go deer hunting and a deer kills your friend, would you give it a present?

[Darth Rockwell]

Never thought of it that way. Though he could have given him the gun because the Pred he killed was a idiot and the older one wanted to get rid of him and Glover took care of it.

[The Joker]

I thought Arnold's character from Predator was dead...according to an interview Busey did while filming Predator 2, his character sent Arnold back into the jungles to try and capture another predator, and the entire team was killed.

[The Joker]

that's one thing i never really got my mind around in predator2. if you go deer hunting and a deer kills your friend, would you give it a present?

ah, but that's what seperates them from us when it comes to hunting. We kill anything, regardless of how defensless it is. The predator's have a code of honor, much like samurai. They only go after armed creatures who can defend themselves, if they lose a hunt they kill themselves in a very hara-kiri way, and if they're bested and killed by there own prey, whatever killed them is resepected by the others. They have a complex culture that's only been brushed upon in the movies, which is why I buy the Predator/Human team up in AVP. The girl killed an alien, which is a right of passage for the predators, so she was like, an honorary predator and such.

I just watched AVP...all the wasted potential made me wanna cry. :(:(:(

If they ever decide to do another Pred or AVP movie, they should get the guy who played the original Pred(no, not Jean Claude Van Damme) to teach the new guys how to move like he did.

And don't give the Pred face more emotional range...they're badass hunters...a perpetual scowl suits them fine.

Excuse me while I go watch the original Predator movie.

And don't give the Pred face more emotional range...they're badass hunters...a perpetual scowl suits them fine.

Excuse me while I go watch the original Predator movie.

The original guy who played the Predator died. :(

Kevin Peter Hall was an excellent Predator and he had the movements perfectly. That's why I was saying The Rock should play the Predator, since he's really atheltic and agile for his size.

[Knightsaber Priss]

I have an interesting idea that encorporates Dutch from the original film.

Paul Anderson isn't that bad. I don't understand why he gets as much crap on these bordes as he does. Are his movies great oscar continders? Hell no but they are fun enjoyable action flicks. I think people need to get over the fact they think they could do better and just quit *****ing.

No one is denying that he isn't a good director. But he writes crappy scripts and then they turn out to be crappy movies. I'm sure others here could write better scripts than him, myself included into that equation. However, he needs to be given better scripts or have a better writer do something for him.

He is a lot better than Uwe Boll or Pitof, so he has that going for himself and so forth.

I can't say much about the plot. I didn't go in expecting to see a good plot.*cough*Paul W.S Anderson*cough*:p ;)

But I agree with what you said about the action. They should've made the action more 'hide and seek'-ish IMO.

Aliens - blends in with the darkness

Predators - chameleon like stealth

Huge potential for suspenseful and edge-of-your-seat action sequences.

Btw, are there female Preds? I dunno...I'm warming up to the idea of seeing a female Pred on the big screen for once.

[Venom160]

I found this off a predator fan site.

http://members.iinet.net.au/~jaherne/thehunted/yautja/predator-female.jpg

Female Society

Female Yautja are similar in appearance to males, but are overall larger and in some cases, stronger. Presumably all newborn and infant Yautja, or pups, would begin life at the same size - and with age would grow into their gender's size and shape. However, very little information is obtainable on the females actual appearance.

It is assumed that Yautja would be attracted to each other enough to initiate sexual relations. All senses are connected to sexual attraction, but the primitive sense of smell is most likely. Yautja can smell the musks of other Yautja, and particularly the "child-bearers musk", which would suggest that females are sexually motivated only during a specific time in their hormonal cycle. Although, human females are permanently in heat, which means they can be sexually motivated at any time - and with the Yautja lifestyle, a male could die on any hunt, so females might need to be able to breed at any moment also.

Not much is known about the actual breeding period. It is assumed only one female in a pack becomes pregnant, usually the dominant female, but sometimes two or more females may breed. In other mammals, including humans, copulation occcurs in a stereotypical way, with one set of female postures and movements and a different set for the males - the only limit is imagination. Considering how ritualistic the Yautja are, this could be how they copulate.

After conception and birth, daughters would stay with their mothers in the protected environment, to raise their own children and maintain dominance over their clan's territory. Mothers during this time would teach their pups to fight and survive. They are vicious and relentless in the protection of their children, who they keep safe and hunt for.

Females can also hunt for trophies, but it is most likely for different reasons than the males. Dominance may certainly be a factor - but perhaps it is to show their ability to protect their territory, and their own and their sisters children, from enemy female clans.

A female clan would be made of many generations of daughters, mothers, and grandmothers. It would be easy to presume that such a clan would be led by a single matriarch. Since females rule over their territory and generally run clan affairs, the Yautja would most likely have a matriarchal society.

McTiernan Doing a Predator Restart?
Source: Shan February 8, 2005


Latino Review has an interesting rumor saying that Fox is looking to restart the Predator franchise:

Without getting my own ass in trouble, here's a smallish bit of news. Twentieth Century Fox are in talks with Johnny McTiernan to do a new Predator film - not a sequel, not a remake, not a prequel; more of a restart. There's talk - based on a treatment that's floating around the traps - that it might fix on Dutch's (the guy from the first film, Arnie played) grown-up commando kid.

We'll see how this turns out. Stay tuned for possible updates.

[SWAT]

I think they should go with my story for a number 3 instead..! :p :rolleyes:

[gregtestagent]

I know it would make serious continuity errors but...have Sigourney Weaver fight Predators and have Arnold fight Aliens. In the same movie of course.

[KenK]

Could definitely work, if true. Dutch probably got chummy with that South American chick they were carting around, understandably having bonded through their own experience with a Predator, and had themselves a little Dutchmeister! Have Dutch die(probably from lung cancer from all those damn cigars), so that takes care of Arnold, should he not be available(or interested). Since it's only been 17 or 18 years since the last film, and Dutch's kid I assume would be an adult, it'd be important to either establish the setting as near future, or don't establish a time at all.

Boy I'm getting ahead of myself, aren't I? But if it's true, I'd definitely want to see it. And don't make the mistake of excluding Stan Winston!!

[Dr. MIX]

I'm voting to restart the franchise, Batman Begins style

[gregtestagent]

I actually expected the human woman, in AVP, to go into the pred ship and become accepted. It kinda happened in the comics with one human woman.

[Darth Rockwell]

the AVP movie borrowed heavily from Prey but didn't set it in hte future which would have been better. It still rocked though

I don't have a problem with restart but I do have a problem with having it about Arnie's kid, it just sounds cheezy, I suppose that as a stake of honor they might seek out his kid but why not just use a completely new character :confused: And wait if it's a restart, how can it be about arnie's kid? :confused:

Preadator 1 is perfect :o So to be honest if they make another predator movie I like to see more of teh predator culture, for an alien race bent on hunting, I would think that they probably are born in test tubes and use only the best dna perhaps even take dna from there hunts :o

A thought...which I can't believe I didn't think of sooner...


Now, exactly...

HOW WOULD IT BE A RESTART IF THE MAIN CHARACTER IS DUTCH'S SON??!??!?!?!

Sounds like a SEQUEL to me;)

...unless they mean it as the restart to an ongoing franchise USING that character.

But yeah, as I said before...if he's Dutch's son, he should be CRAZY and quite obsessive. Think about it, he'd be like John Connor, raised his entire life with his stories of doom from his parent, proclaiming that things aren't all that they seem and that some type of doom is coming.

It would be great if Dutch Jr. was obsessed with the rumors of other Predator hunts throughout Earth's timeline. Perhaps his tracking them alone?

[Eelectro 2!]

i dont' think it makes any sense to 'restart' the predator franchise. maybe by this they mean there are no ties to either predator 1 or 2 or avp. i don't see why there would be a remake otr whatever since there was no beginning. all the first movie was was just one predator in one situation. just like the 2nd movie. 2 predators out of an entire race of situations. dont' know how many of them could take place on earth, but give enough situations, and there ya go. one in the jungle, one in a populated city, one in antarctica, and then make another maybe in a desert-like town/army base (like the book, big game) or my idea would be to have a new predator movie not having the main character a cop or a commando, but have something along the lines of this perhaps:

the setting would be wherever and whenever best fit the story, but have it go along the lines of either a father and/or husband or maybe a brother having been wrongfully acussed of murdering and maiming his family (but really, it was the predator) and either he was in the wrong place at the wrong time or maybe add some kind of twist to it why exactly the predator didnt' kill him (i think a different idea regarding this predator with different morals than those of the last 2 (didn't kill because they weren't armed/didn't kill children or women) should be thought of). maybe even to boot to that, maybe he lived with his family and had relatives and friends and neighbors over (no more than 10 people at the very, very most) for a barbecue or event that was personal to him, etc.

this guy would be carted off to prison and would be sentenced with the death penalty. so then there leaves a good portion of the movie in death row. therefor, there could be plenty of people in there that are scum, but also good people to level out the characters and so on. some other part of the story would be what the predator is doing or what's going on with him. not mindless killing, maybe he came with a miniature ship kinda like that of what the predator in the first movie landed with and is trying to protect it or is bringing things back to it and something happens and it takes out part of the city. maybe there could be a little sub-plot involving somebody else and this leads him eventually back the the guy in prison. maybe like on the night of his execution he's about to wrongfully die when everything goes crazy and the predator enters. this could be a very high armored and protected facility with lots of criminals and such and plenty of doctors and phsyciatrists that live there to help them or help them 'find god' before they are put to death and then all the security (people as well as maybe radar controlled machines for when the security people are off duty or whatever). maybe make it out to be the biggest big house wherever this is placed.

i'd say, like the previous two predator movies, have this be where things heat up before the finale. by that i mean like in the first movie when they realize there is a monster and they all start trying to catch and kill it which eventually leads to arnold facing off, and then the 2nd movie when it goes to the bulding that a trap waits for it in and then danny glover then chases it leading to the end. pretty much everybody would be either escape, be left alive inside, or killed one way or another by the predator or others. this commotion could cause a riot with some realizing the creature, others not. some get away, including the main character and maybe some of his newly aquired firends. it leads to wherever and the finale happens. it's a totally new idea with totally new characters that could be built uppon. this wouldn't be a whole bunch of guys with huge muscles and guns, but there woudl be plenty of huge muscles and guns to make it work and still be a 'macho' movie. the main character would be whoever and really, vin diesel or the rock, altho some wouldn't want it, would work very well in a sotry as this. arnold and glover were big enough stars from their movies (terminator and leathal weapon to name one for each) and vin diesel has his movies, as does the rock. just hopefully there wouldnt' be any totally obvious wrestling moves used if the rock was chosen. hell, maybe even have the main character vin and the rock could be the lesser main character (friend from prison) cuz then he wouldn't necesarily have to live, but could give one hell of a go with the predator in his own way.

then again, as the 'restart' movie may be, arnold would be in it with or without the woman that survived with him in his movie and there woudl be his son. arnold would be whoever he is (still smoking cigars hopefully) but would be doing things people his age would be doing after licing through his life as a commando and whatever happened after the movie setting up the rest of his life. i think he should die, but only at the hands of the predator. either he feels he will one day he will be come back for and this is his day, or he gets one last square off with the predator (not the same one obviously). what would be neat to see is if danny glover's character went looking for dutch after the end of 2 and they became friends with all these stories. they coudl both be retired and go off that, just to show what happened to both of them after their movies. it would have the main focus with dutch's son he most likely woul dbe the one squaring off with the predator(s) but a really good action movie would be what we would need if this was the case. his son would be old enough to protect himself, but would still obviously need help from his dad and friend from the predator. this coudl even elad into something along the lines of the rpedator came looking for the both of them (the gun may or may not have had a homing device on it when given to danny glover, and the explosion that arnold had been a part of could have somehow linked him to the predators. somehow, it should be a thing of getting back at one of them and it ending up happening to be both of them. that way, this would tie up any loose ends from their movies and give way to making new stories without having to have it make direct links with dutch or harrigon's characters and start totally fresh. maybe making the one i thought of as well as another, just for the sake of saying what it could end up being.

i'm sure and almost positive we will see one more alien movie with sigourney weaver, which is suppossed to go back to the planet visited in the first movie where it all started. so that could tie up the franchise that way, as well as the arnold/glover story i presented to tie up the predator franchise. that way if they are successfull enough, maybe the follow up to aliens vs. predator would occur. 3 predator movies, 5 alien movies and 2 alien vs. predator movies would sure satisfy me. just as long as we got to see the predalien and a new breed of alien (not just a human alien, or dog alien, something bigger or with more power/abilities just to give it more of an advantage than it already has)

[Wolfwood]

An interesting thought: if the main character is Dutch's son, what if his mother was that hot latin chick? He could be played by The Rock.

I was thinking that too.

[Timstuff]

I think that "restart" may have been too strong of a word. Technically, this would be a sequel of some type, since it sounds to me like it will be using the first movie as canon, and probably will not tread on Predator 2's story at all. A restart would mean throwing out all continuity with all past Predator flicks, and feature an all new mythology and new characters, almost like a remake but with a different story.

I had a similar idea of how they could do Alien 5. It would really be more like "the real Alien 3", however it wouldn't necessarily tread on Alien 3 and Ressurection if you're a hardcore fanboy. Basically it would feature all new characters (no Ripley, sorry), because that way they can effectively ignore 3 and 4 without having to negate their continuity with the franchise. The story would involve going back to the alien ship on the desert planet, and learning more about the origin of the Aliens, and shed some light on the life forms who created the ship. Also there would be some neat stuff involving Aliens who incubated in non-human life-forms. Could you imagine a Bull alien, or dozens of 16" tall monkey aliens swinging from the cieling at lightning speed? There's some crazy stuff they could do there.

[Timstuff]

Arnie is OLD.

The Rock!!!

Supposedly the movie will be about Dutch's son, and so if the mother was the girl from the first movie, I think that The Rock would be a perfect fit for the role.

Hmm... What if he becomes the target of the son of the Predator from the first film? Heheheh... There's plenty of interesting stuff they could do. I like the idea of him having some of that John Connor esque paranoia, because he would have grown up listening to his parents' horror stories about the Predator, and that screwed him up a bit. Personally, I think the best name for such a film would be "Predator: Offspree" or some other subtitle having to do with offspree. Also, to make it believable that The Rock is playing Dutch's son, I think that the setting of the film should be sort of post-modern, since the first film would have taken place in the 80's, and it has to be believable that Dutch's son would be in his late 20's now.

[The Demon]

Yes,I'm actually not a big fan of The Rock,But I believe,when Arnie did his cameo in that Rock movie,winked at him and said "have fun"...he was passing the "Predator" torch.

[Eelectro 2!]

lol, now that i think about it, that would be not too bad of an idea, despite the rock being part black and all and the woman from the first movie being spanish, i think it could be pulled off. altho i see absolutley no way it woudl be possible to believe that the rock is arnolds son

yes arnold is older now, so is glover (he looks like a grampa now) but that doesn't mean they couldnt' be in a predator movie still. they wouldn't be able to do the stuff they did in the first movie but it would make for more character depth and what happened to them and what is left over from their prime when it comes to dealing with the predator again. if they were to survive, it woul dbe one hell of a stunt to pull off becaue by rights, if arnold or glover appear in another predator movie and end up being within the eye sight of a predator again, that should be their demise

dont' much have any interest in the son of the 1st movie's predator, there would be no emotion shown, there is no real way to show it's his son since if he were to even have a picture from dear old dad that he kept, it looks like the rest of the race anyways. anybody could simply confuse it with just another predator taking revenge of continuing that predator's reasons for being where he was.

I read a rumor that WWE's John Cena is being considered to play the role of Dutch's son.

The Rock wouldn't have a hard time filling the shoes of Arnie and Danny Glover. With physically big actors, you don't go to their movies expecting oscar worthy emotion from them. You go to their movies because they are good entertainers. Arnold's work wasn't exactly Shakespear, but we all loved him because he had charm, and he was good at entertaining. The Rock would be perfectly adiquet for a Predator film, and it would probably be 100x better than the poop Paul Anderson puts out.

Or he could play the kid that the woman was pregnant with in the 2nd movie! That would be a good way to tie things in.

[Timstuff]

I like both The Rock and Diesel. I think people like to rag on them because they appear in alot of crappy movies since hardly any of today's big budget blockbusters have roles written for muscular actors. Everyone wants the little sissy who runs away or the shrimpy guy who can do wire-foo. But there's an utter lack of roles for actors like Vin Diesel and The Rock. When they get the roles that work for them like Riddick or Beck from The Rundown, they get a chance to shine, and remind us why we all loved the 80's era of Arnie and Sly. But since those roles are usually few and far between, they end up being in crap like xXx and The Scorpion King. Once Hollywood gets over it's obsession with pretty people and fake martial arts, maybe Vin Diesel and The Rock will finally start getting the good roles.

[Knightsaber Priss]

Oh my God. I caved in and bought AVP despite the fact I think it's a Z grade tribute to both Predator and Alien. What is wrong with me?!

[swifty]

the fight scenes are great, aren't they but crappy story!!!!
It seems like we're going to get another AvP movie.
I really hope it shines this time!!!!! I want Ridley Scott for director or preferably James Cameron!!!!

[Darth Rockwell]

James or Scott probably would never touch this franchise. They bot have moved on and never looked bac. Look at Cameron he wouldn't eve nmake the thrid movie to his Terminator series.

[Timstuff]

There are probably alot of little-known directors filming fan movies in their back yard who could make an AVP movie 100x better than Anderson.

[gregtestagent]

Which moment in Predator scared you the most?
mine is when he takes off his mask, roars, and starts walking towards Arnold with his arms open.

or when the Predator starts laughing after he activates his bomb.

[Lord Nemesis]

That laugh was creepy as hell. :(

That was like...the coolest part.

[Timstuff]

The part with the pig! When I first saw the movie, I stood up and said "HOLY CRAP! HE GOT HIM!" Ah, great moment. :)

[MarvelMovies]

Since Arnold won't be coming back..

Maybe in a minor cameo appearance, but that's just about it..

I say brand new characters.. and a fresh start, tied loosely into the first movie..

The second was an oh kay movie... but that's it.. so just start over in a sense..

[icefire394]

Umm... I'm new so i'll just thruogh this topic out into the open...
I personally want to see Predator 3 and AVP2 made.:dew: :word:

[Warhammer]

^AVP2 comes out next summer.

As for a Predator 3, I say bring him back with new characters.
I really don't care about another Predator film, though.

[icefire394]

Well Warhammer do u have any idea when the movie Predator 3 will come out?

[Warhammer]

It all depends on the popularity of the AVP franchise.
AVP did less than good 2 years ago.
Predator 3 could definitely be a possibility if AVP makes the Predator very popular again.

The premise of AVP2 kinda sucks, in my opinion.
It's supposed to be in the old west. There is a rumor that they will only be 1 Predator in this movie.
Lame. :down

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_vs._Predator_2

[Warhammer]

Correction, it comes out December 21st of 2007.
This same crap happened with Blade: Trinity.

People don't want Aliens and Predators running around when they're waiting for Santa.

[icefire394]

I agree one Predator is lame,
i'm not sure if people would agree with this but i think there should be at least five predators :cool:

[gregtestagent]

I agree one Predator is lame,

The single-pred formula worked for two films, but I would like to see a clan hunt... and not get ripped to shreds right away!

[CAH]

I'd watch "Predator 3" only because I love the character.

Bring Arnold back if you want, bring Glover back if you want. It doesn't matter.

I'd actually like to see new characters myself, but whatever I guess.


CAH

[Fanticon]

I am the biggest Predator fan in the world....I was really disappointed in how they were represented in AVP, so much so, that it killed the entire crappy movie that it was for me. If they do another one (Predator movie)...it needs to be in the future...on Earth...in a Utopian type society...a la Demolition Man...but really in a hi-tech future...flying cars and all...something like Blade Runner meets Fifth Element style visuals...in a somewhat Utopia type mega city...the Predator struggles to join the hunt...and some of the storyline from the video game need to be touched up on....like, humans have duplicated the alien technology...cloaking devices and all...a storyline like this is the only way you'll get me to see a Predator 3.

[Warhammer]

You should send that great idea at Fox.
Too bad Rothman will turn that down. :csad:

[icefire394]

I think arnie should come back for the last time in AVP2 or Predaotr 3.
(or never thats fine with me) :woot:

[xwolverine2]

i prefer avp2.....

[Jspider13]

Predator 3 with the Rock damnit.

[icefire394]

uh....

[icefire394]

Can anyone show me a picture of "the Rock" :huh:

[Flexo]

Can anyone show me a picture of "the Rock" :huh:

http://www.indcjournal.com/archives/rundown.jpg

[GhostPoet]

Stallone should be in the next one. Not only is he a great actor (don't see he's not...he has done a lot of fantastic acting) But he's freakin RIPPED right now from the pics we saw of the new Rocky film.

[Superfreak]

as for the poll, I'd go for new blood.

What I'd like to see would be something new. We've seen the super-commando vs. the predator, we've seen the hardened inner city cop vs. the predator. So it has to be another champion of sorts.

I think a medieval version of predator would be cool, with a knight vs. the predator.


But I think what would really get me excited would be a Native American Indian Brave vs. the predator. Crabby kills a bunch of peops, cowboys, some union soldiers, some indians. But in the end it comes down to a badass brave with his skill and axe vs. the superior predator.




I always liked how the predator was not based specifically on a given hero, who goes through all the movies as an ongoing chaaracter. I always prefered the idea that every time a predator comes to earth, he works his way through the current and active champions available for him to challange. So it's always a different hero in each subsequent movie. Kind of how Predator, Predator 2, and AVP ended up working out. I like that.

anyhow, another idea would be a movie that follows the life of a predator. They are long lived, so it could be a journey through time, as well as a kickass movie. You know it would go, first trip to earth: kills a Roman, second trip to earth: kills a medieval knight, third trip to earth: kills an 1812 soldier... etc. Perhaps the hero in the movie, the human champion, would be a family of people, that the predator comes specifically to hunt. And so it's like this curse of the family, that every couple of generations, a deamon comes to take their strongest. Yada yada yada.

[Dr. Fate]

I must say no to Predator 3.

[BloodyWolverine]

Yeh do a 3rd one but i think they should consider The Rock, John Cena, or Djimon Hounsou for the buff military idea or Viggo Mortenson, Christian Bale or Hugo Weaving as the possible cop idea

[K.B.]

For cool ideas on how they wanted to make predator movies pick up the special editons of 1 and 2 and listen to the commentarry tracks.

I'm up for a 3rd one but leave previouse actors out of it.
As far as director ideas...what about Luc Besson? He knows a thing or 2 about making a good sci-fi.

[BloodyWolverine]

I think a good director to look out for is J.J Abrams but for Predator 3 why not Tony Scott, Sam Raimi or Del Toro.

[Max J Power]

Bring back Arnold.

[dogwonder78]

If you're going to do another Predator, go the way everyone else is going and make some sort of prequel. Much more interesting than looping storylines over and over.

[icefire394]

Ok I say they should put new characters in Predator 3, so that person wouldn't really know what there up against. Until half of the movie is over, then the real battle begins.

[Mrh7448]

It needs to be the Rock....the Scorpion King vs. Predator....OH YEAH!!!!!













Haha...j/k...:P

[Spider-Fan83]

well, first it was special forces, in the jungle, then it was, a old city cop, so the next one should be, a Predator, going after a small town taxes range type, (or better yet it should be set in the old west)(its alread set up ateh end of 2 with the old west gun, make it a prequal shwoing the event where they got the gun, from a old west gunslinger) since the Predators have been coming to earth every like 10 years (or something like that, I forget) for centuries, why not, it can be set any time in the past, present or future.

Predator vs. Dinosaurs(lol) ,Neanderthals, Cavemen
Predators vs. Gladiators
Predators vs. WWI, WWII, (WWIII) Soldiers

actually you know what would be cool to see have it set on whatever planet, (or place,) the Predators are from, and have it be like a timeline trail with the elder predators reviewing all of different Predator tribes,(or whatever type of group or family lines, they keep) to see which one is the most accomplished in there battles, and have flash backs (or some type of holographic mental projects of the individual up for review)showing all different fights though out history (all in one movie) lol
Just a thought (it could work)

[BloodyWolverine]

Predator v/s Batman. Predator v/s Wolverine. Just kidding but wouldn't that be a cool consept. Honestly though Carl Urban the guy who played Eomer in Rings would be the ideal cross for a Predator advasary.

did you even read my post, check it

[Arkady Rossovich]

I support a new film,but with new characters.Predator 1 was perhaps the best action film of the late 1980`s.

[Lando81]

A third with new Characters would be best.

[icefire394]

In predator 3 there should be a war like the whole human race vs. the predators. :ninja:

[turtlefocker]

Predator 3 simply must be made, the only question is "by who??" and the answer to that question my friends is none other than...

http://images.allposters.com/images/73/039_20759.jpg

Thats right TARANTINO

I know, I know some fan boy geek has said Tarantino should make every single film thats ever been made.... but I honestly think he would make a great PREDATOR film.

It would have great characters, memorable performances, witty dialog, and some kick-ass gore. Death Proof proved he can do ACTION to.

MASTERPIECE

[Nathan]

I'd love to finally see another Predator. But it should have an all new cast, as much as I like Arnold, he's just too old.

I actually would like to see a Movie set in the past, something like medieval Japan. The Predator would work well as a Samurai slaying Demon.

[Jick09]

I think it could work if it starts in a jungle.
then the humans supposedly kill the Predator. they return to the city and Predator is right behind them.
half in jungle, half in city.

[Jspider13]

Predator 3 with The Rock as the lead.

It's easy to understand.

[Spider-Vader]

I want a new Predator. I don't want a new Alien, that series by itself is dead.
Predator 3 would rock.

[Sugarculted]

Gimme another Predator, which can be done right.
Setting it in the past could work. Or even perhaps, a Predator who has survived for decades on Earth.

[Jick09]

that would be a neat idea. maybe hibernating in some kind of machine and someone accidentally wake him up.

[OperationStupid]

I saw a fan vid of Riddick vs Predator. It might not make a good movie but it would make a great comic. As far as P3 goes. I would like to see new characters with Arnold doing a cameo.

[OperationStupid]

I also think P3 would probably be a really great movie because the creators would only have to focus on doing the predator right. I think with AVP1 and possibly AVP 2 it's too hard to do both creatures justice. Hopefully AVP 2 will prove me wrong.

[OperationStupid]

The single-pred formula worked for two films, but I would like to see a clan hunt... and not get ripped to shreds right away!
I agree. A successful clan hunt. I'm not sure if the Wolf in AVP:R dies or not. But I think it would be a great idea to have him live. That way he could be in P3. Because that's something we have never seen before. A predator in more than one movie. I mean come on, Predator's shouldn't come to Earth anymore if they just get killed by humans.

[turtlefocker]

Instead of 3 posts that could have been 1 post.... Stop this multi-posting bull****

Hey fanticon I really like you're idea. But don't say that's the only way you'll see the movie. There's too many crap films coming out to not to at least see a crap version of one of our favorite characters. Cheers Mate!

A certain Feldman wanted me to bump this post, any disagreements and you'll have to go through him:

http://flavorpill.net/sundance/feldman_by_mccarthy.jpg

[Spider-Vader]

I doubt we'll see Predator 3. Fox seems happy with keeping these creatures alive in the cross-over series.

[bullets]

i seriously doubt will ever see arnold in anything other than a cameo

[Darth Rockwell]

Arnold one last time. I want to see a Pred own him.

[Mr. Socko]

Quentin can star in it too :oldrazz:

[Eelectro 2]

if they made a predator 3 i would like to see a good and interesting plot that, while not as main characters, brings in both arnold and glover for cameos. have each of them in their older ages have one last bought with the same predator individually, but the predator wins both times. some kind of plot that centers around them being the 'sole survivors' of past predator encounters and they need to be taken care of, perhaps personal reasons.

i still think that the graphic novel 'predator: big game" would make for a good predator 3, i think it would keep things fresh enough if they approached it the same way as the first 2 movies.

[jimmylace]

I liked the idea of the scripts written by rob rodigurez (sp) in the late 90s
one was set in the 1500s and had a bunch of people/pirates on a ship fighting a pred, and the other was that the preds captured dutch and harrigan and took them to their own world, forcing them to fight each other in an arena.
they both sounded cool, but fox deemed them too expensive to make.
shame really. AvP was the way they decided to go unfortunately. Not only did we lose Alien 5 by scott and cameron, we lost a potentially mental P3.
If they do do a P3 in the future, I just hope stan winston is involved and ADI arent.

[Penguin]

i think they should do all new characters, if they do the movie:whatever:

[Spider-Vader]

That Dutch/Harrigan one would of been awesome.....:o

[Jick09]

i think they should do all new characters, if they do the movie:whatever:
same here

they need to just overhall the whole movie.
new director,new aliens, new characters

I'd love to see either Dwayne Johnson or Karl Urban to take on a Predator.

What do you mean new aliens? You can't replace the Preds they're like Frankenstein or..............Big Foot! :oldrazz:

[Pandamar141]

If they ever make make a Predator 3, I would love to see it take place in the past. Like the Pred could hunt a samurai, or an African warrior or some such.

[Blade90]

Arnold won't do another Predator movie. He's a smart guy. He turned down Predator 2 because he didn't like the idea of the urban Predator.

Actually, he turned it down due to the fact that he was filming Total Recall at the time Predator 2 was being made and would soon be filming Terminator 2 soon after.

To be honest, I don't have a damn clue what to put in a Predator 3 movie. The first two kicked serious ass(Even though the second was bashed by n00b critics), so it's going to be kind of hard to make another one to live up to their greatness without making it look like a cheap rip off of either one or both.

As for 'Get Arnie back!', no chance. He probably won't be doing another movie for awhile, and besides, he's had his screen time, let's give someone else a chance.

I do know for a fact that Robert Rodriguez made a P3 script that involved both Harrigan and Dutch being kidnapped and taken to the Predator homeworld to fight to the death in a gladiatorial arena, but the heads at 20th Century Fox didn't like it, so they scrapped it. It's been in development hell for quite awhile now.

[TBadora]

I've always wanted to seea Predator 3 with both Arnold and Glover. That would kick soo much @ss. Too bad they are both too old now.

[Dangerous]

Yes to Predator 3 but only if it featured all new characters in the same vein as the previous films.

A 3rd film w/ Arnold in it would just feel like a gimmicky cash in, and lets be serious- Not only is he retired from the business but he is too old to play those type of action roles now.

Who was in the film would not really be that important.
The most important thing would be a credible script.

Unfortunatly, w/ the current crappy Alien Vs Predator series in full swing, the Predator series is unlikely to re cultivated any time soon.
