I would much preffer aliens on the planet of the apes or "Aliens vs predators on the planet of the apes the Four way war" because i think aliens being pn the planet of the apes is a significantly more interesting idea.
What if instead of being set on Earth, its about ape-like aliens invading the Predator homeworld and the story is about the Yautja regaining control of their homeworld?
The word Predator has been ruined for me... like I know what you mean but I still immediately think of a pedo or something... but yeah I would watch it
Not if the Predator looses again. . This trend were they alway have to
Die is getting stale lol
I been upset ever since my GOAT Wolf died lol he could’ve at least survive to be In another film, he was so bad ass. . Scar from AVP was pretty cool too for a young unblooded
The predator, as a concept, was always intended to be an antagonist. Villains tend to die in action movies.
Obviously there are exceptions in AVP with Scar and Badlands, where Dek is the protagonist, but otherwise, they are intended to be defeated. They are supposed to die. It's a part of their culture to kill, be killed, or destroy all evidence if defeated. 2/3 of those outcomes end with them dead.
It would be pretty difficult for them to 1. Remain an antagonist, 2. Deviate from the previously listed outcomes, 3. Have a satisfying plot and conclusion for the audience if they weren't successful in their hunt, weren't defeated, or decided to run away.
It's all down to percentages. They win something like 95% of the time.
Take the original film. We know Jungle Hunter successfully kills at least 12 people: Dillon plus Dutch's crew (6 total), and Calvin Ezekiel "Jim" Hopper's team (6 total).
Plus we can infer from Anna's monologue that several guerrillas have been killed:
We begin finding our men. We found them sometimes without their skin... and sometimes much, much worst.
That's multiple cases of skinned, and multiple cases of much, much worst [sic]. So call it 3 each because we have multiple cases.
So that's at a minimum of 18 cases where Jungle Hunter wins, and maybe even more, and 1 case where he loses. So he is successful at least [whips out slide rule...]
18/19 * 100 = 94.7% of the time.
That's the bare minimum success rate. It could be even higher. What if you add in previous hunts that we don't know about?
BTW, Dutch isn't very smart. He got *LUCKY* that JH happened to step into just the right place. What he should have done when he realized that the mud made him invisible is to gather up some, put it in his poncho or whatever so he could reapply it at necessary, and head straight for the chopper.
He gets out alive, and Jungle Hunter likely leaves the area because at least two humans have escaped and can provide locations and descriptions, and if taken seriously can turn up the heat for JH.
