Im still thinking about The Predator. What a huge missed chance right? Because it a movie that laughs at pretty much the whole franchise. It hates it. It basically tell the audience : what are you doing here? this franchise is the worst.

The ending? that was a cool way to end a movie?? why the fuck was that predator coming to give us that?

I can't keep the predator movies straight. The "Franchise" has always been shit. The first movie is the only good one*

I love the first two. Predators was ...yeah not good at all. And the AVP movies are..not good. Kinda fun maybe?

But this one? it had everything to be up there and it clearly hates the franchise and everyone who saw it.

Predators is really underrated. Solid, entertaining movie. Waaaaaaay better than Predator 2.

That the one with Adrien Brody? I think i was mildly entertained for a couple hours, yea.

I also think the first AVP is awesome. Prime Paul WS Anderson, baby.

This franchise is dead, though.

Everything was pitch black and pg-13. Hated it.

I only watch the unrated cut. And I had no issues with darkness. I think it’s a beautiful film visually.

I hated it when i saw it back in the day. The scene with the Predator and the girl running together....my god. The good predator. Please.

Yeah, at this point this franchise is fucked. The last two really fuck it up. They could have gone with such a different angle, more close to a horror movie than this cartoon we got.

I liked Predators and preferred the 2nd AvP film

yeah i prefer the 2nd too. At least the ending was kinda badass.

Sicario: Day of the soldado.

I liked it enough. Specially because Josh Brolin and Del Toro. But its pretty enjoyable.

I still can't wrap my head around the reason for this sequel.

have you seen it? it's a good continuation of the male leads' story

Have not watched

I liked this, but thought that there were scenes left out at the end

what did you think was missing? (please use spoiler tags)

Spoiler: show: benicio got shot thru the face. girl is rescued.cut to a year later. he was messed up in the car. what happened with the border? the girl? did hammerjaw know he wasn't dead?

Spoiler: show: When Benicio got shot, I was thinking "that looks like it'd be through the cheek, not through his brain," so I wasn't entirely surprised when he got back up.

Presumably the border situation is still a lost cause. Isabel gets puts in witness protection, I assume that's the end of her story (she won't be back in part 3).

I was a little peeved with that last scene, when Benicio asks the kid if he wants to be a sicario. It was dramatically cool, but logically it was pretty iffy; if Benicio wanted to hire a hitman for some reason, I'm sure there are way more qualified people who would be easier for him to work with. Still though, I thought it was an awesome setup for the next one.

The Babadook came up on my queue last night. First time watch so it was appropriate for October. Some legit creepies but ultimately felt like empty calories.

Struggling to get through Hold the Dark. Really can’t wait for this modern cinematography trend of raised black levels and nonexistent contrast to end. This movie looks like shit.

That aside...lol....is it any good? Or are visuals the only thing you care about?

That isn't mean to sound like an attack....

What movies are you watching?
