'Predator' Reboot In Serious Trouble
Thursday, January 29, 2009

We've got a holy sh*t scoop for you that's going to have half of you screaming in excitement and the other throwing tomatoes. A reliable source dropped us a line revealing to us that Robert Rodriquez and his Troublemaker Studios will be producing the Predator reboot for 20th Century Fox. Now here' the kicker, the pitch being sent around town implies that the reboot will have more than one predator. "In the reboot a team of commandoes face down a mysterious race of vicious monsters." No writer has been attached yet - and there is no script. No word on whether or not Rodriquez will direct, but it seems highly unlikely considering how many projects he has in development.

Rodriguez and Predator? I'm cool with that... being a reboot with more than one Predator? I always thought that what made the Predator so cool it was the fact that only one kicked some many people asses! kinda a an alien Rambo/Commando of sorts...

So where's the serious trouble bit? Let me guess, it's just gonna be called Predator? About a team of commandoes? So it's another remake then?

I'd prefer this over any AVP or Aliens with Sigourney Weaver

its a tricky one its one of those movies you want to see return ... in any form really... but then when you get cr@p like AvP.... you get all angry and stuff... *sigh*.. this is a moral dilemma

OMFG, Please GOD PLEASE don't let them start re-making Alien too...AVP was a kick in the teeth so a remake of Alien...well, a kick in the fucking nuts to be honest!

NO MORE REMAKES! NO MORE REMAKES! Come up with something original you fucks, and make it good, not like the avp crap (thats probably asking too much)

Agh! I can imagine it. Having the three amigos stamped to this project (Rodriguez, Tarantino, Roth). Rodriguez should make a sequel to Spy Kids.

Does the "Reboot in Serious Trouble" refer to that it is being produced by Troublemaker Studios? I can't see what's the trouble with the premise. Remakes suck 9 out of 10 times anyway, IMO; so why thinking it could be good or necessary to begin with?

Would be good to see a 3rd Predator film instead of another avp but would also prefer Rodriguez get a move on with Sin City 2 before this.

sounds more or less like a remake of the original

THis is great news. I hope he directs it. One of the best directors ever.

So it's going to be 'From Dusk Till Dawn' in the jungle? Fail.

I'll see it regardless of what it is. I love all Alien, Predator, and Alien vs. Predator movies.

dear god when will it end?

Im a huge predator fan so Im kinda up in the air...a remake might be good, but if they can change it up enough to be different Im down with that just to see Predator. I think Robert would do it justice if he did go ahead with this. As long as I see predator just slaughtering people, Im there.

"a team of commandoes face down a mysterious race of vicious monsters". Sounds more like a reboot of Dog Soldiers to me. Why don't they just make a new movie?

The serious trouble is that this movie will blow. Wow...this reboot shit is getting really old. Everytime I come on here something else is getting "REBOOTED!" It seems like that's the new euphemism for "Remake." We're not remaking the flick over again, we're rebooting it, and thus giving it a fresh new start for a younger generation who apparently aren't able to go down to their local video store, add the video to their netflix que, or watch it one of the dozen of times that it's on TV...

I'm cool with Rodriguez's involvement, but I thought this was supposed to be Predator 3? The series doesn't need a reboot.

yay, finally, i still only really like the first original predator, part 2 was okay but compare to the alien vs predator bullshit films - part 2 looks like oscar winning material. i like the idea. if there's more than 1 predator, how about just call the film "Predators"

Sounds interesting. NOTHING could be as abhorrent as Predator 2! I don't care if they call it a reboot, remake, re-imagining, sequel, prequel...whatever. All of my beloved franchises have at least a couple of crap entries. I just hope they don't sell us out too badly with a PG-13 or some such shit. But as long as the Predator or Michael Myers or Jason Voohees keep coming back, I'll keep paying to see them tear shit up!

Is Hollywood seriously so out of ideas that they have to remake an already perfect film? I mean I know they do it every day but come on.
