If it bleeds, we can kill it. Get to the choppa!! So many incredible quotes from the famous action movie! I know I said I had seen it before, and I have, but honestly I remembered very little so it felt as much as a first time watch along as any other movie! It was so much fun and buff Arnold was insane to watch! On to the second!
Thanks for watching! Have a great day! :)
Best thing about this movie for me was i missed the first two mins of the film, so i had no clue what the infra red pov was all about. The Alien was a total surprise. I came in just as Dutch was doing the dude bro hand shake with Apollo Creed. made the movie so much more of a surprise for me not seeing the pod launched from the star ship.
You probably know by now, or someone below may have mentioned it, but Alan Silvestri was a very prolific film composer in the 80s, just like Jerry Goldsmith and James Horner were. People know him best nowadays as the composer for the Avengers, but he is also the composer for Romancing The Stone, all the Back To the Future movies, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and The Abyss, and even 90s films like the second Predator movie, Death Becomes Her and Forrest Gump. Plenty more after those in the 2000s and 2010s. He was/is Robert Zemeckis' go-to composer, just like John Williams is to Spielberg.
Ollie my guy! This has nothing to do with the movie, I’m just noticing you passed 10k subscribers! I thought you’d make a big announcement or something so we could all give you some proper love, but either way…congrats!!! Keep doing what you’re doing!!! 🙌
I really enjoy watching movies with you!
@@jbjones07 And like Elfman to Burton.
David Lynch's composer, Angelo Badalamenti, passed away, this week and I don't think he's going to make a next movie, but I think he wants to and now it'll be so hard because they had great simpatico.
Yisss. My "Predator" movies. Part 2 is a criminally underrated gem. I love my Predator/Yautja Lore soo much. Can't get enough of it. 🥰
The Predator's/Jungle Hunter's laugh at the end is actually his recording of Billy's laugh at the beginning when he's still in stalker mode.
FUN FACT: The original script had it written in it that it was supposed to end with Arnold Schwarzenegger killing the Predator and winning in the one-on-one hand-to-hand fight, but it was changed at the last minute because Arnold himself was adamant on it and he realistic enough to know that in a real fight the Predator not only would've won, but he would've mopped the floor with him (and he's very right to think that, as Arnold stands at 6'2 while the Predator (Kevin Peter Hall) stands at a gigantic 7'3!)
So the ending was changed to Arnold winning the final fight through his wits and traps instead of his brute strength alone.
Using traps to defeat a manhunter harkens all the way back to The Most Dangerous Game, and I appreciate the homage in Predator, even if by accident.
They did set-up that he is super strong with the truck thing, but, yeah.
The Predator actually shot Arnold’s gun in half. 🎯
Great reaction. Part 2 is a very underrated film. It’s actually fun and you’ll learn a little more about Predator culture. I hope you’ll react to it. 👍🏼
A little bit of Trivia: the mini gun that Blaine used is the very same mini gun that Arnold used in Terminator 2.
Next: Predator 2, then Prey (2022).
The perfect playlist of the only Predator movies that ever existed. 😏
@@WolfHreda Thou dost forget AvP.
@@shallowgal462 I most certainly did not. I actually like AvP. It's dumb, but it's fun. And it's still miles better than AvP: Requiem. That movie ... Ugh...
You left out Predators.
Prey is worse than the predator from 2018
Once again, I appreciate your honesty that you’ve seen Predator before. Not mentioning any names, but there are reactors out there who fake it (you can tell when they make mistakes in commentary). Great reaction, as always. Looking forward to more Trek, too!
The worst ones claim to have anticipated stuff that superfans didn't notice for years.
They are genii and that's why they are all incredible authors and filmmakers.
The plural of "genius" is "genii" pronounced Genie Eye.
To be fair, I do occasionally see a reactor point something out I never noticed before, but what they pointed out was so glaringly obvious, I don’t know how I never noticed it before. And the only thing I can think of is that when a product is good, your brain doesn’t notice the mistakes, because you’re so focused on what they got right.
There was one reactor who watched the OT Star Wars, and indicated that they knew “from pop culture references” that that the Emperor was named Palpatine. When she got to the Prequels just a couple weeks later, she said during Episode III, “oh my god, what if Palpatine is the emperor?!” And then when his face gets monsterized, she says, “Mind blown. I can’t believe that he was the Emperor all along.”
It actually didn’t surprise me much, because her whole react personality seemed fake anyway. She seems like someone who just took a theater class, and has “Avon Lady” face on all the time, if that makes sense.
Names give us names. I dont want to watch the fake ones.
Some interesting facts, the helicopter pilot at the end of the movie was the guy in the predator suit, also the same actor they used for the Alien in the first Alien movie, also some of the sound effects of the predator (clicking etc) was done by voice actor Peter Cullen who is known for voicing Optimus Prime.
MY #1 FAVORITE ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER MOVIE!
Facts you didn't know about the movie:
Jean Claude van Damme played the Predator in some parts of the movie, but quit production as he was tired of wearing the original suit which looked like a lizard insect hybrid. He even wanted to kickbox Arnold but the producers refused.
Kevin Peter Hall, RIP, was cast as the titular character as he was more of an intimidating opponent for Arnold's character Dutch being 7'2".
Oscar Winning VFX company Stan Winston Studios designed the PREDATOR suit for the film and would later return to the franchise for PREDATOR 2 in 1990.
Half the cast and crew got food poisoning except for Arnold and Director McTiernan whom ate Spaghetti O's and PBJ Sandwiches like Spielberg and Ford on Raiders Of The Lost Ark. Schwarzenegger would later hire his own personal Chef to give the actors the food they needed. No hot meals were allowed due to the heatwave in Mexico so they ate protein bars instead.
The producers hired a bodyguard to protect people from Sonny Landham, RIP, whom played Billy as he was prone to violent outbursts.
Landham said in an interview that, "We weren't making a movie, it was a survival story for all of us."
The scene where the stuntman falls off the cliff and lands in the water blew out his kneecap.
It rained for 2 weeks making filming even more difficult.
It was 110° in the shade while it was 42° at night.
The film was a box office success making $100 million dollars ($360 million dollars today) against an $18 million dollar budget.
It was nominated for Best Visual Effects but lost to InnerSpace.
It's now considered to be one of the best Sci-fi Action movies ever made.
"You're hit, man. You're bleedin'."
"I ain't got time to bleed."
"Oh... okay."
Fun Fact: Jesse Ventura was delighted to find out from the wardrobe department that his arms were one inch bigger than Arnold Schwarzenegger's. He suggested to Schwarzenegger that they measure arms, with the winner getting a bottle of champagne. Ventura lost, because Schwarzenegger had told the wardrobe department to tell Ventura that his arms were bigger. You're going to have to get up much earlier in the day to get one over a professional practical joker.
Don't Drink It Fact: The Predator's blood - a goopy substance with the color of Mountain Dew - was made on-set using a mixture of the liquid from inside glow sticks and KY Jelly.
Practical Effect Fact: The invisibility cloaking effect was achieved with a bright red suit (because it was the farthest opposite of the green of the jungle and the blue of the sky) the size of the Predator. The red was removed with chroma key techniques, leaving an empty area. The take was then repeated without the actors using a 30% wider lens on the camera. When the two takes were combined optically, the jungle from the second take filled in the empty area. Because the second take was filmed with a wider lens, a vague outline of the alien could be seen with the background scenery bending around its shape.
Alien vs Predator is set after the movie Predator 2.
John Mctiernan is the director of the original Die Hard and Die Hard with a Vengeance. He also directed Arnold in The Last Action Hero. Out of The Predator Sequels, I think Predators directed by Robert Rodriquez is a really good one with its own unique premise. A little bit different to the other Predator movies. The second Alien Vs Predator though...That film has issues.
So glad you’re getting into these movies.
I love The Predator. 😁
The movie where Arnold got Carl Weathers hooked on fine cigars, he liked them so much he was having cases flown in to set almost daily and Arnold had to tell him to slow down and take it easy on those cigars. It's a good thing they went with this design for the Predator and a lot of thanks goes to James Cameron who suggested to Stan Winston he always wanted to see a monster with mandibles. Van Damme was the original actor under the suit but got replaced by Kevin Peter Hall who at 7'2" looked more intimidating. Kevin got a cameo as his human self at the end, he's the chopper pilot with the sunglasses. And a connection to Transformers, Peter Cullen, the voice of Optimus Prime, did the vocal sounds of the Predator. Jesse Ventura became governor of Minnesota, Arnold became governor of California and Sonny Landham tried to run for governor of Kentucky but dropped out.
Stan makes another gorgeously gruesome mandible monster for 97's The Relic!
This is such a great straight up action flick. I've wondered recently if the initial shot of the Predator ship is even nevessary and we should'nt've been told this. Also, Alan Silvestri is absolutely killing it with the score. Now on to Predator 2.
The black helicopter pilot at the end was the Predator Character in the film..it was a thank you for doing a good job.im sure he was in predator 2 as the predator also
Even if you seen it before - Predator is a Action Classic
"My precious"... was priceless.
Predator 2,
AvP, AvP: Requiem,
Predators, The Predator....
All fun journeys along the path of the Yaujta.
"There's something out there waiting for us, and it ain't no man.
We're all gonna die."
The blast hit Dutch's weapon, not his arm.
I think the movie is kind of a masterpiece since it has absolutely nothing to say but still manage to be one of the most entertaining and memorable movie there is.
“They’re all shooting and the predator behind them like wtf” 😂
You made me laugh. Thank you for the reaction.
the directing being superb isn't surprising at all - this guy made die hard
The predator was originally Jean-Claude Van Damme in an insect suit. The movie would have been a disaster.
There are still Sylvester Stallone and Jean Claude Vandame movies too and a few Steven Seagal, Mel Gipson,Jet Lee, Bruce Lee, Dolph Lundgren,Michael Dudikoff,.....
You remember in Spaceballs Rick Moranis comically large helmet? Well keep that in mind for AVP and Predators
Many of the scenes of the Yautja being camoflauged are actually early footage featuring Jean-Claude Van Damme, who quit because the original Predator design looked really stupid and he didn't think it was worth his effort.
Thank you. I never thought I would hear a comparison between Predator and Dunkirk. I really like how you see and analyze these films.
Anyhoot, you have seen at least a couple of John McTiernan movies on your channel - Hunt for Red October and Last Action Hero. Don't know if you seen the 1st and 3rd Die Hard movies, both directed by him as well, the best of the entire franchise (imo). He has not done a lot of movies, but I would recommend The Thomas Crown Affair (1999) and The 13th Warrior.
The non-canon fan theory is that this Yautja was a weenie rich kid who was a terrible hunter so his rich parents sent him to Earth to learn to hunt easy game and develop honor but he used lots of tricks and cheats to fake a great trophy collection and just got sloppy on this last hunt.
The greatest 80's action team - 2 governors (Arnie and Jessie), a screenwriter/director (Shane Black), Carl Weathers, Bill Duke, Billy!, and the other guy 😅
I do enjoy Predator 2 more though, for reasons I will discuss once you have seen it.
6:00 Now in Living Stereo!
I really hope you watch "Prey" too! It's the latest Predator, but as a "prequel", you could toss it in in any order, really.
This is the same director as Die Hard.
You need to watch Predators.
It's the best sequel in the Predator franchise and the group are all badass.
Love this movie so much.
Get to the chopper
So next up
Predator 2
AvP
AvP Requiem
Are you also gonna react to the other predator movies
Predators
The Predator
And Prey?
I love completionist reactors
Even watch the reactions to bad sequels.
If you can kill it, you can grill it. 🤗🍖🍗🥩
The handshake is used as a meme template these days.
4:25…uhm…whilst it’s an addictive substance…(so I guess it depends on your definition/usage)…but chewing tobacco isn’t classified as a drug is it?
Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe.😊
Thanks, Oliver! 🎯 My favorite one from this franchise is the prequel, PREY (2022). #RolyPolyOllie #JohnMcTiernan #Predator
Same here!
*AvP* is a good movie, don't know why it gets disliked so much.
Nobody can tell me that Bill Duke and Jesse Ventura want a couple in this movie. I have always thought so.
No, they're just really good friends 😅
🤣🤣🤣
@@LordVolkov ok
Every line Jesse Ventura says in this movie is straight out of a wresting promo.
I won't think any less of you if you watch AVP. I realize that you are only doing your job.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
