If anything, watch the original. It’s a classic. One of the best sci-fi action slashers made. Fun fact, Jean-Claude Van Damme was originally going to play the Predator role because of his kickboxing skills but the suit wasn’t a good fit so they wanted a more towering figure in the role and they went with 7 ft 2 in Kevin Peter Hall instead.

I still hate Zach Edey.

Don't even think it's really even Edey's fault, moreso the refs that seemed to have no clue how to officiate a game with him in it. Dude's the size of a mack truck and if you so much as breathed too hard on him it was a foul.

Makes me hope that 200 foot tall kid they got at Florida never ends up any good, cause that sounds like it'd just be another repeat of Edey.

The problem is they never called offensive fouls on him. Some of the defensive fouls they called were legitimate but a lot of the times refs would call ticky tack fouls and whenever you do that for a 7 footer, it isn’t fair and makes games one sided in favor of his team.

Predator is one of my all time favs.
Blasphemous to compare the new one to the OG!
I plan on checking it out too, I hope it’s good.

I don’t think anyone is saying the new one is better than the original, they are just saying it’s the best in the franchise since the original, which has made a lot of fans excited about it. Apparently it’s pretty wild and nothing like any of the other movies.

Ha, have you seen the original predator suit?
πŸ˜‚
Van Damme was pi$$ed about his role.
He thought he was going to be allowed to showcase his martial arts.

Kind of a forgotten basketball player but I always loved watching him play. Jason Williams aka White Chocolate. So creative and so exciting. Such a unique style of play that I wish more players would try to emulate instead of all these 3 point contests.
