There isn’t a single flaw in this movie.

Do grenades blow up like that? No.
Are any of them wearing any kind of necessary gear? No.

Does any of that matter? NO!

No

The character development of the team is absolutely unparalleled.

Just a few lines from each and they are all seared into our memory.

Predator 1 for what it is, is a perfect movie.

T2 is the GOAT action sci-fi flick.

Arnie was in god mode in the late 80s early 90s. They don’t make them like him anymore.

Nothing will ever touch his run from 82-94

People shit on Arnie for his acting but he really puts on a performance in Predator

Its pretty awesome but not a masterpiece like war of the wor....lol I couldn't even finish that.

It’s a great movie. Not the best ever. But I do love that movie.

Criminally underrated movie. People just didn’t get it.

I still wonder what a JCVD predator would have been like?

At some point that predator would have been round house kicked in the face

I think Aliens does.

I think the faster pace and shorter runtime lend to Predator being more rewatchable. However, still like them both equally.

F’in Poncho was a tough SOB

Last Action Hero is a legitimately great movie. Honestly, probably one of Arnies top 5, maybe even 3rd after Predator and Terminator (if you count them as 1). It was just 10 years ahead of its time. Charles Dance was incredible decades before GoT.

Predator is a perfect movie for what it is.

Wouldn't put it in my top 200 but it is a fucking awesome 80s testosterone fueled entertainment. Crazy the director did Die Hard right after this then Hunt for Red October. They don't make em like they used to.
