Movies Have never actually seen Predator 2

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.
There's nothing brave about my opinion and I don't care what "the majority" think, I

think for myself.

I for one have to view anyone's opinion with a fair amount of skepticism when they cite Bill Paxton as a reason to watch a movie....
 
When did this nonsense about Predator 2 sucking start anyway?

Is it part of some internet meme?

It has a 29% RT score so I think people thought it sucked from the jump and only recently have been pretending like it’s good. It didn’t do all that hot at the box office either...because word of mouth got out that it sucked.
 
Only thing I remember from my original viewing is that it was the first time I saw the cowgirl position. I missed the alien skull reference, only learned from it a couple of years after from Wizard magazine.
 
Quality titties, a dope subway scene, and Gary Busey. What more do you need?
 
An alien made a cameo as a trophy

I was super excited when I saw that scene as a kid, knew it was the alien instantly.
Ah, OK. I assumed he meant genuine Alien vs Predator action.
In your quotes pic there are others circled but not in the original pic.

I’ve always wondered what those were...
Holy shitballs.

That was my initial response at 12-13 or however old I was when it came out.
 
Was that the one with the lady giving a robot a handy?
Yeah and with Cara Delevingne as the second in command, who's out on a school night (a line taken right from Frank Miller, who is also in the film).
 
It's a good film. I actually like the city action more than the jungle action.

The only thing that ruined it for me is...
Danny Glover beating a Predator one to one.
 
Was that the one with the lady giving a robot a handy?
The one where they decide to put a serial killer cultist’s Brain into a giant death robot.

Also there was a drug kingpin kid who was a main antagonist...wtf

If you want a laugh this video is hilarious:



For the record I think that Robocop 1 holds up well. Saw it a few weeks back and can say it’s pretty good even in 2020. But the second one is bad and the third is....well we don’t talk about the third.

Very underrated. I quite liked it. Laurence Fishburne's character made no sense though.
Replace him with Arnold and it makes more sense. Not really, but just listen to me.

The guy I quoted edited his post and changed the pic. I didn't change the pic in my quote.

I'm guessing that mostly dates from the time and really no 80's style action tended to get the credit it deserved.

At the time I spose you could argue there was some fatigue for this kind of cinema as well which perhaps the film itself semi acknowledges by being such a mixup of other similar films from the era but in retrospect your really talking quite a short time, less than a decade when this kind of stuff was being made.
 
It isnt a movie you shoukd avoid, it is a fun waste of time, nothing more.
