So the reboot of the Predator Franchise is getting ready to start filming soon, and this time it's Robert Rodriguez behind the camera. Now for those of you who don't know Rodriguez's work, he's the guy behind Sin City, From Dusk Til Dawn, Desperado, and Once Upon a Time in Mexico.
Rodriguez definitely is talented, but his films are really hit-or-miss in my opinion, and whether or not he's the right one to reboot this franchise is up in the air. One thing is for sure though, this series really needs a comeback. The original is a terrific sci-fi/horror film, and one of Schwarzenegger's best. The sequel was not nearly as good as Arnie's installment, but still delivered some good scenes. I'm really interested to see what Rodriguez will do with the film, now titled Predators, and for those interested here is a video clip describing in detail the script: Warning Major Spoilers http://www.aintitcool.com/node/42545
One thing that I can give away that's not spoilerish, is the basic premise of the film, which apparently has a group of warriors from Earth being abducted and brought to the Predator's homeworld (a giant game park so to speak) for hunting purposes. Think The Most Dangerous Game on an Alien world, with plenty of blood and gore!
So what do you guys think?
