Predators 2 (Rodriguez Confirms it)

[Foggy]

I really enjoyed the first one so this is nothing but good news to me!

With the box office success of Predators -- both domestically and internationally -- Robert Rodriguez, who produced the film, told IGN today that a sequel is looking likely.

"[The studio] said, 'Let's do some other ones. What other story ideas do you have?'" says the filmmaker. "Because it was like, let's test out the market with this one. They really wanted it to be pretty contained, pretty scaled-back. They didn't want to put too many of the ideas into it that we could save for a second one. So we could see what the appetite was, because the bigger movie would actually be what comes following that. That kind of sets up a new storyline, new location and world, and then you can really go crazy from there."

Rodriguez says he has "an idea" of what he will do with the sequel. The next step, he says, is probably to have other writers come in and pitch different versions of his basic premise, along with new concepts. And then, as with the first Predators, he'll pick the best one. As for whether or not he would direct the sequel…

"I don't know," he laughs. "I think I have too many people wanting me to do Sin City 2 first!"

And what would the next Predators be titled? Predators 2? More Predators? Predators's?

"I don't know what it's called!" laughs Rodriguez.

Hmm, Predators was a huge let down for me. I really hope they can do it right on the next try, but I don't have much faith in that happening.

I'd rather see a much better director take the reigns, and have Rodriguez do Sin City 2

[Q?]

Nice.... Really nice... NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE...... NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCEEE!!!! !!!!

Now I hope they expand on the story from Predators and not just another rehash of Predators and Predator (like come on, it somewhat was).

I know that, I'd rather see him spend his time on Sin City 2 instead of another Predators film because they dropped the ball on this one (big time). F the other guy (nimrod), I want a better director for the second one

[RocShemp]

They should call it Pedators and Aliens and Humans - Oh My!

[Gamma_Winstead]

Predators are aliens.

I liked Predators and would love to see another chapter in the series, but he's right that I would rather see Sin City 2 first. Come on Robert, get together with Frank Miller and give us Sin City 2 already!

I agree, but he can produce this and do Sin City at the same time

Great news. I loved this movie. Seriously what did you expect Citizen Kane? It was a movie about Predators. They have big knives and laser cannons. They make odd noises and blend into the jungle. What more where you looking for, a song and dance number? Or Arnold with absolutely no muscle mass left and his saggy old man body to come trotting out of the jungle? LAME SAUCE!


I hope they bring back

[Show spoiler]Brody and Braga

and don't have an all new cast again, I want to see two consecutive Predator movies with atleast one original character so we can see how their skills have progressed since the beginning when it comes to combat against the beasties. Either way, as long as he makes the sequel and soon I'll be happy. Couldn't care less about Sin City 2.

If you want to know what I think about Predators, I wrote a lot about the plentiful bad aspects of this film in the Predators review thread.

I hope they bring back

I agree, it would be nice to bring back Brody, but I thought Braga was one of the many miscasts in this one

I didn't have any problem with the casting, I just found Brody's Batman voice to be odd.

Haha, that was the least of my worries with this film. As I mentioned, Braga, who looks like she weighs 110 lbs, was not my ideal choice for the character with a high powered rifle.

She's hot, rather her than an amazon woman.
