Only the second I've seen this version of the predator franchise and its not the worst film in the series get to that one later in the week you've got the jungle setting similar to the first one even some of the weapons too acting not bad could have done with more Lawrence Fishburne but the real stars of the are the predators themselves. what is a shame the ending sets up a sequel but never happened shame

Halt and Catch Fire
The Predator- love the first one, hated the second one, liked the reboot/remake in 2010 and this one well could of been better. Let me explain the predator franchise is a intrest franchise, mixing togther horror, sci-fi, action and comedy all togther. Sometimes it works like in the oringal one and the 2010 verison, sometimes it doesnt like the sequel. So how does this one hold up. Well all i can say is that its a mix bag. Sometimes the comedy works and sometimes it doesnt. Mostly it doesnt. The sci-fi, action and horror work mostly, kind of, not really. This movie fails as a reboot and fails to live up to the oringal and the 2010 version.
The plot: From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home. The universe's most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and an evolutionary biologist can prevent the end of the human race.
Some of the cast is good like Boyd Holbrook, Jacob Tremblay and Oliva Munn. Some of the cast is just wasted like Thomas Jane, Jake Busey and Yvonne Strahovski. And than their is Keegan-Micheal Key who is both good and wasted at the same time.
All and all, this movie fails overall and should be skipped. But at the same time maybe watch it, if you like the predator franchise.

Characters – Eve is one of the victims of the sexual predator, planning her escape she learns there are more girls being held captive. She sets out with her capturer to save the other victims determined to make him pay along the way. Phil is the sexual predator, he has the girls locked up in different locations and uses them as leverage to keep himself alive. We do meet the other girls, but rarely see much from them.
Performances – Tina Ivlev is the star of the show here, she uses every emotional encounter as fuel to drive her character, showing us determination and toughness through her ordeal. Richard Tyson is great too as the predator, showing us just how far one would go to stay ahead of the game.
Story – The story here does give us a revenge thriller that shows us what one woman who escapes her prison only to go on a mission to locate the other victims before handing in the predator. The story does turn the revenge thriller on its head because we only get a small glimpse at the suffering she has been through as we focus on her decision to do the right thing for the other victims. We do have twists along the way and unlikely reaction to being rescued too. While the jumps to the original life on camera can be frustrating and not needed the rest of the pacing of the story does feel like it keeps you going without any problems.
Horror – The horror in the film comes from just seeing what Eve and the other girls have gone through feeling and looking just as brutal as it should be.
Settings – The film takes us to different safe house like location to see where the girls are being kept, each one has a different look and style to how they will be used for the girls.
Special Effects – The effects through the film are good, they show us the attacks both sides will be dealing with and making it all look like it was real throughout.
Scene of the Movie – The escape seems planned as well as showing the panic.
That Moment That Annoyed Me – The camcorder material.
Final Thoughts – This is a good revenge thriller that does everything you want, it is blood soaked and does give us a fresh approach to handling the story.
Overall: Revenge Thriller for all.

Predator meets Sharknado!
Can't say much about this piece of sh*t!.
Gone are the interesting characters, good action scenes and anything that's makes any sort of sense. Instead we get a horribly acted, written and edited piece of garbage.
The CGI was bad and overly bloody and disgusting for no real reason. It honestly felt like a was watching one of those Shark vs. Mega Octopus SyFy movies. I can't believe this was allowed to be completed and released as is.
One of the worst movies of all time!

Classic RTS
This game was a dream come true for me. Take the RTS genre (think Command & Conquer, Warcraft, StarCraft, etc.) then combine it with a franchise that lent itself very well to that type of game. You could choose Marine, Alien, or Predator, each with their own unique troops and abilities. The game felt very well balanced, although the controls could be a bit clunky at times, as some commands had to be buried in pop-up menus due to a limitation of buttons on the PS2 controller. Overall though, a thoroughly enjoyable game.

Honestly, I barely remember any of the Predator movies, so I had little to no expectations going into the film. It was alright. The film had a great start, but then it devolved into silliness. And, prepare people, they set it up for a sequel, of course.
One thing that bothered me was Olivia Munn's character. She was a biologist, but somehow, she was holding the guns like she held them before. Was she supposed to be ex-military? Does she play a lot of Halo? I was completely confused.
