I agree with the taste part, but I disagree and think this does look "stupid". I prefer the large crest and head. The original was badass, this looks like a fetal alcohol syndrome Predator.
I mean, I prefer the original design until its actually moving around. To me personally, the head crest in the Predator 2 fight just looks absolutely ridiculous. Not when its just staring into the camera or something, just when its moving around quickly. The proportion is just kind of absurd.
 
More Predator backstory with Alien connections swirled in throughout? Lets do it. Just imagine a xenomorph egg or something cool connecting it together with Romulus? This guy is 2/2 with predator stuff so far so I think hell do well. Kinda looks like Predators 2010 switched up. I get why they gave this predator that look, if you have to stare at them for 90 minutes eventually the ugly face will look a little dumb or expressionless.
 
I liked the look and tone of the trailer. Her being a synthetic is a good narrative choice
It would need to be, otherwise this girl power shit is out of control. We can't go from Arnold to Sanaa Lathan and Amber Midthunder and then Elle Fanning and have the same respect for the actual Predators. The first one took on Arnold and a gang of buff trained soldiers.

Why do we need back stories for monsters? I'm not interested in the Predators backstory, he's a villain who fucks people up. They made him a protagonist now , but I can't see myself getting behind him, and that chick was already annoying enough in the trailer. It will probably be an improvement over the girl power Prey at least.
 
So PG-13?

Regardless I’ll pass based on the trailer. Prey was okay but I don’t understand everybody circle jerking it like it was amazing. Same with Alien: Romulus.

Prey was ok... the CGI parts... the rattlesnake and mountain lion... were off putting

Romulus was kinda fun

Theres no humans in the movie (the human actors are synths). So all the blood and limbs are technically aliens, which makes it hard to get an R rating. Shitty as it was, AvP had impalemet, dismemberment, etc, it was just all green or acid blood.

If I recall humans can get stabbed and chopped and shot, but no blood or gore allowed else it becomes R...

Think about Lord of the Rings - Boromir is shot up with arrows...no blood

Star Wars - Light Saber stabbings, laser shots and burning alive

That said, I do love a good Predator spine and skull rip...
 
It looks made-for-tv therefore I have no interest. Maybe little to none.

Prey was supposed to be a joke, but I enjoyed it. However, watching it a 2nd time didnt work out well.

Predator tries to be scary but its sci fi action. Still, that attempt helps make it serious.
 
It looks like the Transformers or Fast and Furious of Predator movies. It doesn't look grounded, and I like grounded movies. Generally speaking, the closer they get to over the top video game shit, the more turned off I am.

I will probably watch regardless, it's just a matter of whether or not I do so in a theater. I watched The Predator in a theater, it produced life long trauma.

I'm hoping it's at least good popcorn.

Mortal Kombat 95 kinda laid the blue print for how to sucessfully adapt a "Rated R" IP into a PG-13 format. A seemingly impossible task but they pulled it off

The Shang Tsung soul snatching, the Scorpion Cage fight with the lava blood and skull getting sliced in half, the Goro montage of bodies just getting flung across the arena, Reptile turning into a pile of insects Halloween 3 style...
Even Kano got his neck broken.

The only weak death is Sub Zero dying via huge icicle.
