I saw the new Predator last weekend.
It was actually quite funny when it was just mindless joking around, but then fell apart completely at the end when they tried to have serious action scenes.
It's 2018, can we just not with this "autism is superpowers" shit anymore? Unless it's a plot to make stupid people go and finally vaccinate their children.
I was also so disappointed that the thing that came out of that stupid sarcophagus in the ending wasn't cyborg Arnie.
I also finally saw, tangentially, Kill Bill. And it was so much worse.
I don't think I have ever in my life witnessed something so completely devoid of any meaning. Even now, I struggle with the dark void this experience left in my memory, threatening to suck everything else in.

Oh yeah the autism stuff in the film sounds unbelievable. Like stuff you would put in as a parody, cause its so embarassing now. They have a comedy Tourettes guy who keeps shouting rude words! Its like frat boys wrote the film around a beer keg while yelling "bad ass!" constantly.
Yeah I need to see it. And I need to get my autistic mate to watch it. His confusion will give me great joy.

Oh, geeze. An Alien, Predator, Terminator crossover.
Now that I think about it I'm shocked we don't have that already. Maybe toss in Robocop too.

I still dont get what a robot predator suit is supposed to do against an alien invasion and global warming.
Weirdly, Arnie being in there would actually make MORE sense than what we got.

I heard that originally he was supposed to revise his Dutch character for the end of this movie.
I guess Gary Busey lied about him dying in Predator 2. Of course, I wouldn't put that past Gary.

Okay, I just saw anti predator suit.
Is that an attempt to sell toys? It has weirdly oversized guns on the shoulders like they belong on an action figure.

Are the predators trying to tell us that transformers are better than they are?

I just realized that Shane Black stole the plot from a Dolph Lundgren movie called I Come in Peace (aka Dark Angel).

No, there was an alien taking blue juice out of people and another alien trying to stop him.

Its about as generic a thing for aliens to be doing as you could imagine.
Its wierd that they've changed the predators cool motivation into something both more predictable and more stupid at the same time.

Robot Chicken once did a skit about Predator hippie environmentalists.
Now the Predators actually are hippie environmentalists.
