Movies Have never actually seen Predator 2

It’s okay. It has developed a weird cult following similar to Halloween III: Season of the Witch where people swear it’s a great movie just to be edgy and different.

Oh pfffh.

Predator 2 is one of the best action movies of its generation. It might not be quite on par with the first movie, but it is in the same league. Said league also includes Robocop, Aliens, Lethal Weapon and a couple of other classics, by the way. Literally every scene in Predator 2 is awesome and unforgettable.
 
People act like it sucks. It's definitely decent, just nowhere near as good as the original.
 
When did this nonsense about Predator 2 sucking start anyway?

Is it part of some internet meme?
 

Just in case we didn't already know this: Hudson's line about Vazquez thinking these were "illegal aliens" comes from reality.

When Cameron told her about a film called ALIENS, ever the character actor she came dressed to audition wearing a bureaucratic, strait-laced outfit because she didn't know it was sci-fi.

She thought ALIENS was gonna be a film about immigration.
 
Have heard it's not as good as the first one. What's the consensus on it here?
I watched that movie for the first time when i was 10 years old. 20 years later, I decided "maybe i didn't understand because i was young"

It actually ended up WORSE than i remembered. That movie fucking sucks. Bill Paxton was the only thing enjoyable in this movie and he is barely in it.

The only decent follow up to predator I have seen that I enjoyed a bit was predators
 
Its not brilliant but it does kind of act as a fun greatest hits of 80's action, Lethal Weapon, Aliens and Running Man characters hunt The Predator.

From the same time I'd also recommend Robocop 2, much better than its reputation suggests.
Oh my god no. Maybe when i was 12.
Upon rewatch I felt that movie was lamer than i remember. "GOOD MORNING"
 
Oh pfffh.

Predator 2 is in the same league as Robocop, Aliens, Lethal Weapon, etc.???

It's wildly underrated in my opinion. It's a detective/action movie meets Predator. It's great, don't listen to the naysayers. I think some of the gripes about it are (consciously or not) because Arnie isn't in it and the first movie is so good. It's got an awesome cast and is just as rewatchable as the first movie. It does its own thing and expands the lore.
 
Beats 2/3 of those easily, battles the other to a decision. It's a classic.

LOL. It’s 29% RT score and 6.3 IMDB score shows the majority agree with me. I do admire your opinion though...it’s quite brave.
 
Predator 2 is good. The best sequel. I've always liked it for it's over the top violence and different setting. It's not as good as the first but nothing can top it anyway. The cinematography on this one always catched my eye everyone sweaty, decayed LA bleak atmosphere. I've always imagined the USA like that as a kid. LOL. Well worth a shot.
 
I've seen it, but can't remember much outside of some Rasta Gang getting fucked up.
 
I like it a lot. Predator is a better movie, but I've always thought P2 had more replay value and I've seen it way more times than I have the original. My favourite thing about P2 is the setting. You get a strong sense of LA being this nuclear hot, sweaty, borderline apocalyptic battleground full of brutal violence between Jamaican and Colombian drug gangs. I saw it first when I was like a 10 year old kid who didn't know much about America and so I ended up being pretty surprised that LA wasn't actually like that (Seeing Clueless was a big eye opener)
LOL I thought the same thing as a kid exept your post is mutch better written than mine. I'm no an English speaker
