“Adrian Brody is too good of an actor to be in a B-movie like this.” - Andrew

On this week’s episode, we’re chatting about the outrageously late sequel, Predators! This is the one where a bunch of strangers get dropped into a Predators’ hunting arena planet and have to survive being hunted by our beloved, be-dreadlocked alien warriors! But, why can’t we get subtitles on these guys so we can see some Predator conversations? Why does the movie lose interest in its pretty cool original premise? Why is there an 11th hour serial killer reveal? And how do you put the great Laurence Fishburne in a two-second role like this? PLUS: Coming this fall to NBC, Predator: Cheers!

Predators stars Adrien Brody, Topher Grace, Alice Braga, Walton Goggins, Oleg Taktarov, Danny Trejo, Louis Ozawa, Mahershala Ali, and Laurence Fishburne as Ronald Noland; directed by Nimród Antal.

Fuck that mouse.

Clever Girl

No offense...I remember loving this movie. 😄 I'm excited to listen to the guys tear it to shreds.

Geoff Gershon

MORE Brutalist jokes, more more more!!! 😀

Clever Girl

The Yautja brought each human predator's weapons with them. 🤷🏾

Clever Girl

Singing "Waterin' Down a Mystery" when a Lilith Fair documentary is on the way is so timely and hilarious. I almost inhaled a vitamin.

Matthew Lloyd

I quite enjoyed this film if im honest.

Craig

The main thing I remember about the film is the predators looking terrible, with heads so big they looked like Pez dispensers.

Robin Fry

Adrien Brody talks like Jimmy Jr from Bob’s Burgers in this movie

Ray

Nimrod Antal directed a movie called The Whisky Robber, which is a top tier title for a film.

Vio Darc

I really appreciated hearing the "have a nice week" as I put this on at the start of my shift just now. Thank you Andrew.

Matt

Look Out Gotham! The Jamemaster is Back in Town!

Barista Bran

Machete vs Predator would be pulpy amazing goodness but instead Trejo is killed first 🤡

Jason

TBF, Trejo probably had another 10 movies to film that month.

Jason

That’s the name of the ghost that lives in Eric’s house!

Graeme Hill

I try to be a good person, but I think I failed when I laughed at what Walton Goggins called one of the Predators.

Eren Keskin

Oh NO, look out, Predator! Adrien Brody is about to do a dramatic reading of Bukowski!

G Goldhar

Badlands seems like it has subtitles based on the trailer for the Predator. I guess if Alien Earth has taught us anything synthetics can just understand anything

David Thompson

I'm Team Steve, this is much better than both AVPs

Rose Esposito

"Hunt my dick, bitch!" made me chuckle, I admit it.

Tanner

The IDF soldier saying "You wanna see something fucked up?" was the creepiest thing I've ever heard.

JK

OMG get Arnold in a Wes Anderson movie immediately

Billie Jackson

If only Goggins had been taken while in the electric chair. This could have been more like Gantz, which would not have been a bad thing.

MarkNM

For whatever reason, I must have seen the trailer for (second VHS Trailer Game Q) more than any trailer that wasn't The Phantom Menace. Every beat stamped into my brain. It wasn't just on the Predator tape either.

Paul

“Thank you.” -Predator

Matthew Lloyd

Also they only shot Trejo in the shoulder because IDF snipers only shoot pregnant unarmed women.

Adam Lewis

"I'll be back ... to a Kinks song."

Busiris

Predator Cheers is a top tier bit, gang. There's so much mileage to get out of just throwing the Predator into an 80s sitcom. "Predator Punky Brewster"? "Predator Family Ties"? How about "Who's the Boss? Predator."

Jonathan Lyons

Oh my god, thank you. That does give me more questions though. Like, how long were they watching? Are there undercover pedators on earth that we just assume are buff black dudes or something?

Jonathan Lyons

Topher grace got separated the same way the kid in the posideon remake got stuck in the third act. It's the same thing that happened in kingdom of the crystal skull. He fell through a crack in reality. No one ever remembers the time they spent in a liminal space. It was eons for him but only seconds for the group.

Craig

Alex P. Keaton. The P stands for…

Emil Svensson

Using Cotton Eye Joe in the Danish version of Speak no Evil would sort of make sense, seeing as how Rednex were Swedish. There's usually a fair bit of cultural crossover between us.

Tim O'

After all these years, I finally yelled in my car. I couldn't believe that no one remembered Midnight in Paris. To be fair, though, I barely remember that movie myself.

Kureigu

Personally I liked this movie, found it more entertaining than the guys did at least. I didn't like Prey, the "your a girl so you can't hunt" trope just seemed unnecessary (especially considering native history of female trackers and guides) and just slowed the whole plot. Not to mention that every other predator movie has shown some sort of gas (i always presumed for breathing) going into the mask but in prey it's just a Skull that doesn't cover mouth. Of course im just letting myself over think it , it's just a movie after all.

Tala Hobballah

While I really enjoy this movie (mostly) this is a new favorite episode.

Tala Hobballah

***Me loving the quiet of the Yakuza fight *** Also lol of course the IDF soldier would be the most "moral".

chris pike

The triumphant return of the Game Master!

WarOfTheBees

Re: skulls, I bet Schwarzenegger has a very identifiable skull.

BBB

Topher is great in Blackkklansman as piece of shit David Duke

Ben Sharpe

Time for a Predator Alien Lower Decks like series !

Craig

The original predator seemed to think so.

Matthew Lloyd

Its so much better than Shane Blacks Predators, they just made it over complicated with the whole "harvest the DNA of the strongest species and incorporate it into themselves". It really annoyed me when Munn said "thats why they remove the spinal column"

Jamie

I feel like 2025 is a particularly difficult year to cheer for someone in the IDF.

Rhea

I watched the original (Danish) Speak No Evil before I heard about the remake, that ending was one of the most brutal things I’ve ever seen in a film. Kinda just cruelty for cruelty’s sake.

Jonnie Sea

I’m SCREAMING Revenge of the nerds part two nerds in paradise but no one can hear me

jribs

When the nerds are in paradise, no one will hear you scream

Ed Harris

Saw this at an Arclight theater and thought it was okay. Truly a case where the only reason I own it is that it came with the box set. Still better than the 2018 film or either of the AvP films.
