Episode #822: Predators (2010)
Added 2025-09-23 04:00:04 +0000 UTC“Adrian Brody is too good of an actor to be in a B-movie like this.” - Andrew
On this week’s episode, we’re chatting about the outrageously late sequel, Predators! This is the one where a bunch of strangers get dropped into a Predators’ hunting arena planet and have to survive being hunted by our beloved, be-dreadlocked alien warriors! But, why can’t we get subtitles on these guys so we can see some Predator conversations? Why does the movie lose interest in its pretty cool original premise? Why is there an 11th hour serial killer reveal? And how do you put the great Laurence Fishburne in a two-second role like this? PLUS: Coming this fall to NBC, Predator: Cheers!
Predators stars Adrien Brody, Topher Grace, Alice Braga, Walton Goggins, Oleg Taktarov, Danny Trejo, Louis Ozawa, Mahershala Ali, and Laurence Fishburne as Ronald Noland; directed by Nimród Antal.

Saw this at an Arclight theater and thought it was okay. Truly a case where the only reason I own it is that it came with the box set. Still better than the 2018 film or either of the AvP films.

2025-09-30 17:55:40 +0000 UTCI watched the original (Danish) Speak No Evil before I heard about the remake, that ending was one of the most brutal things I’ve ever seen in a film. Kinda just cruelty for cruelty’s sake.

2025-09-25 00:51:34 +0000 UTCTopher grace got separated the same way the kid in the posideon remake got stuck in the third act. It's the same thing that happened in kingdom of the crystal skull. He fell through a crack in reality. No one ever remembers the time they spent in a liminal space. It was eons for him but only seconds for the group.
