IMO, Billy was the most bad ass character. Knowing he was facing certain death, he goes out in the most warrior like way with nothing but his ridiculously huge knife. Definitely the boss.
It would have been "badass" if he believed he could kill it instead, which was not technically impossible. Instead he just peaced out. I don't think that's so badass.
Imagine this...A group of Predators come to Earth to hunt men but unbeknownst to the Predators, most of mankind has been wiped out by Skynet and the Terminators...
@@predator7939 Here is an even more potent WTF moment. After becoming aware and sentient, Skynet accesses secret government documents. One such document that peaks Skynet's interrst speaks of a soldier,, a lone survivor who's entire team was wiped out after they encountered an alien life form in the rainforest of South America. Skynet, being so impressed with rhis sole survivor's tenacity, cleverness and ingenuity decides to model the T101 in the likeness of this soldier who Skynet knows only as as Dutch.... let that marinate for a second....
I remember watching Predator with my dad as a kid and being absolutely terrified. The scene where Arnold is covered in mud and the predator gets in his face, about made my little ten year old heart stop! Awesome video Minty!
I watched it at the age of 6 in '87. God we were blessed. I dreamed of the Predator off and on for years. I couldn't touch nor him me. I could fly at will, poor Wiley Bastard.
I saw it as a kid, and the scene that gave me chills was where the Predator is seeing in infrared where they just were, and picks up that scorpion and crushes it in his hand while mimicing Macs voice and you see the heat signature from the Scorpion go black as it dies
Another fact : Despite the title of the 1987 film being "Predator" no one actually says it. The word "Predator" is never mentioned at all throughout the film.
Rashad Crushfield I like the fact they don't say what it is because they don't know what's hunting them. The just know they being targeted by something. That's a genius move for that movie.
Predator is a true Sci-fi masterpiece and Classic 🙂. I was obsessed with the Predator movies as a teenager back then and it is one of my favorite Arnold movies 🙂. Alan Silvestris music score is so iconic 🙂. Stan Winstons Predator design is the most unique and awesome movie monster ever and its special effects 😁.
Darn rewrites. It would have been something to see Billy as the hero. The stigma about him being a tracker/hunter and battling an alien tracker/hunter, both having their own sets of fighting skills and ingenuity.
Definitely one of the most original films of the 80s. It had a fantastic film score, amazing visuals, a really interesting ensemble cast and some memorable dialogue ("There's something out there, and it ain't no man", "We a rescue team, not assassins" and "I ain't got time to bleed" being some of my favourite lines). In the mid 80s Arnie signed a three picture deal with 20th Century Fox and Predator was the last film in this deal (the other two being Commando and Raw Deal) Even now it's still quite a gruesome film but a very interesting and entertaining one. Also Kevin Peter Hall played two parts, not only was he the predator but also the helicopter pilot who picks up Dutch in the junge at the end of the fim.
You forgot to say two things. First: Kevin Peter Hall played also the helicopter pilot in the end of the movie. Second: the Predator was voiced by Optimus Prime himself, Peter Cullen.
@Maurizio Puddu interesting to note how they could've used some electronic effect but still went with a human voice actor ! referring to the voice of PREDATOR to be clear!! CHEERS!
I've always liked predator because one of the strongest men alive (Arnold Schwarzenegger) was 1 move away from being killed by something 10x as strong as him; without his avoidance of death being too forced or plot armored. It's a timeless classic that I viewed in secret a few years before I was allowed to view it.
Harry and the Hendersons😁. Also one of the aliens that tried to buy the Barzan Wormhole in Star Trek Next Gen.. which is only time I am aware his face is seen
Him saying about Rocky fighting an alien made me remember a film called Arena released in the late 80’s. That film involved a bloke fighting aliens in boxing/wrestling type matches
There was also an Engineer skull on that wall. You also forgot to talk about the pistol that Danny Glover received from the predator that came from the pirate Raphael Adolini which is another fantastic story in itself.
Sometimes I tell my kids to get in the truck in my Arnold voice. When I throw in a "get to Tha choppa", they give me a "what the heck, dad!?" They'll learn soon enough.
I will never get tired of this movie and I remember as a kid I had really wanted to meet Kevin Peter Hall and was sad to hear of his death. Oh and the predator II gane for NES rocked, the weapon assortment made it one of my favorite games back in the day.
Jessie S Billy: I'm scared Poncho Poncho: BULLSHIT! You ain't afraid of no man! Billy: There's something out here. Waiting for us. And it ain't no man....we're all gonna die.
I had a black lab that absolutely loved the Predator movie. When I got a 3D TV i bought predator since my dog was addicted to the film to the point of watching it 3 to 7 times a week I thought it would be a good idea. After I got her to actually look at the screen with the glasses on she was hooked. After about 6 months of putting the glasses on her she learned to do it herself . I could hide the DVD around the house and she would find it, if I paused the movie she would growl at me. People thought I was making it up but I have pictures and video of her putting on the glasses and staying glued to the screen and even growling when I paused the movie. for 14 years the Predator movie was the 1 thing that my dog had to have and it is a great memory of a great dog. I love the Predator franchise but not the AVP ones they suck but the first 2 hold a special place to me.
Sometimes I wonder what the movie would have been like if Jean-Claude Van Damme sticked with the movie and KPH never came in. It worked out for the best in the end. RIP Kevin Peter Hall.
think we got very lucky and that is not a knock on JCVD because i always liked his movies but KPH being over 7 feet tall added to that fear of the Predator , Arnold was a huge dude i mean 7 time mr olympia for him to fight an alien half his size would not of had the same impact
Billy also had his own security team... For the other actors protection. He was off the hook back in the 80's. Very difficult to work with. Also I'm suprised you didn't bring up Kevin P Hall being the chopper pilot at the end of the film. That scene of him was added as a thank you for dealing with the harsh conditions in filming. Lastly Kevin P Hall has a very very tall nephew who went on to wear a fan made suit for the anniversary of the first film years back. You should be able to find it on youtube.
"Hunter" was also the name of a popular US tv drama at that time, staring ex-NFL star Fred Dryer, who still holds an NFL record for getting two safeties in one game.
I know that I'm late to this party, but I just wanted to mention that Kevin Peter Hall can be seen in Predator without the make-up on: he's the pilot of the helicopter that picks up Dutch at the end of the film.
Brain Sparrow, thanks, mate. I was looking to see if someone had said it, because if they didn't, I was. I just hate being the guy who types the same thing someone else did. Way to take the initiative, bro. ;)
I remember going to see this at the cinema all of 13 years old and thinking it was simply another Arnie action movie. When it became apparent there was a badass alien involved I was thrilled beyond belief. It didn't win academy awards, but this is the greatest of movies, up with there with Jaws. Simple but packed with Awesome.
Predator kills anyone he perceives as a threat, or worthy of the challenge. All humans are naturally weaker than Predator, but they posses an intriguing challenge because of their intelligence, weaponry, ingenuity, etc.
Gotta miss the 80's (and early 90's) when we got to see rated R movies we weren't supposed to be watching. :) I remember my first one (in the theater) was Rambo First Blood part 2. Now days everything is pg-13. Doesn't have the same appeal to be sneaking into.
There have been many examples of music scores enhancing movies over the years but Predator, to me, is one of the best. The score for this movie gets to me every time I hear it. I love it so much.
Adrian would never let ROCKY the Rambo go to another planet...unless he looked at her and said..."Live for nothin, or die for somethin, you choose" besides who would have the baddest fake Chinese survival and combat knife? The predator?? Oh hell no! I cont think so...now there will be Rambo fake katana limited edition 1 of 100,000,000😃
Predator also came out on the home computer systems such as Commodore Amiga, Commodore 64, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC464, Atari ST etc. It was a side scrolling action game that looked way more like the movie. Computers were a way bigger platform than consoles back then around Europe. During the 80s and early 90s you'll find a lot of movie games were released on those formats over consoles (so Red Heat, Terminator, Aliens, Batman, Total Recall, Back to the Future, Goonies, Gremlins etc)
Oh Minty, your film selections always make me feel like a twenty year old again!! I oddly enough used to watch these movies around Xmas time but all of my movies were stolen by my son and his Predatory wife ick! Thanks again for your humor and insights. Thanks so much for your time and humor . c'- ya! Love Lyra.
Van damne got the role in bloodsport and needed a way out. So he kept falling down and tripping and complained about the costume. That's why he was fired. He planned it
Absolutely jam packed full of nostalgia, I love it, great stuff, Minty. I went to watch Predator in the cinema very recently, it was showing for one night only and when I went, the atmosphere was awesome, you could tell most of the ones there were proper fans just I am because everyone was sort of shouting out the one liners together and laughing their heads off when Blaine said things like "I ain't got time to bleed" =P Merry Christmas and a happy new year, stick around! ; ) Oh yeah, if you think of doing another video over Christmas anytime, really think about doing Home Alone or Home Alone 2, that would be incredible.
Well, Kevin Peter Hall played the Predator (and another reason Jean-Claude didn't keep the job) is because KPH was 7-plus feet tall, and they wanted someone to physically tower over Arnold.
Toby Bliss Both were good. P2 had a bit of Robocop style urban satire. The bit when Danny Glover gets out of the Jamaicans' car, amid an opaque column of smoke, coughs, and says, Maybe you guys ought cut down, is one of my fave jokes in a non comedy. Ps on the other hand, was a total homage to Predator and is honestly about as good as a Predator sequel can get without destroying itself. Part of the appeal of the Predator isn't covering the mysteries of the creature, what does it look like, what it can it do, why is it doing this? Once those questions are answered such franchises die fast. Look at Alien / Prometheus and Terminator these days.
Kevin Peter Hall also played the helicopter pilot in the end. Also the Indian that played Billy had to have body gurads on set not to protect him but to protect people from him. This was also required by the production companies insurance company All this is on the special features of the anniversary DVD. Love the videos. Keep em coming Minty thanks
The problem with the predators is that they aren't scary,they're too gosh darn adorable.You just want to tickle their cute little mandibles and go "Goochie Goochie Goo!".
Minty you missed one of the most awesome things you didn't know... The iconic Predator clicking sound was created by Peter Cullen, whom did the voice of Optimus Prime from Transformers G1 and movies. He got the idea from a dead grab he saw.
Hey Minty, just wanted to let you know respectively that Van Damm wasn't fired, he quit when he found out he was going to be completely covered not showing his face. He wanted people to see it was him. Just what I've heard in other facts and behind the scene interviews. Love your channel. Thank you
Superman Vs. Predator. Alien Vs. Alien, (if on Earth). The game was on several platforms. Sadly the actor who played the Predator died from a.i.d.s dues to a bad blood transfusion. R.I.P. Kevin Peter Hall.
Billy almost felt like a stand in for Rambo. Had a very similar look and everything. I'm confident Rambo would have been able to put up a better fight, however.
Even after 2 decades, this movie still has the most badass handshake
You son of a bitch!
Great video!
best predator movie.
3 decades
What's the matter, Dillon? The Agency got you pushing too many pencils?
IMO, Billy was the most bad ass character. Knowing he was facing certain death, he goes out in the most warrior like way with nothing but his ridiculously huge knife. Definitely the boss.
Yeah and we never got to see it!!
@@leemichael2154 This is the only negative thing in the whole movie. We really should have got to see that scene.
@@MagnanimousEntropy yes it's depressing we didn't plus it would have made movie history !
It would have been "badass" if he believed he could kill it instead, which was not technically impossible. Instead he just peaced out. I don't think that's so badass.
@@MagnanimousEntropy Its not good for the story, we are meant to see a full reveal of the predator towards the end.
If Hollywood made a Turok movie, Billy would have made a good Turok.
Give this man a medal!!!
An excellent idea!
Totally
Who would be a good turok with the actors we have now though
More than likely they would give Arnold that role too haha
You can't fault this film at all. Absolute masterpiece 👏👏👏👏👍
The special effects look better than the garbage hollyweird has pumped out over the past few years!
Imagine this...A group of Predators come to Earth to hunt men but unbeknownst to the Predators, most of mankind has been wiped out by Skynet and the Terminators...
I think that would be fun to watch!
Yes, I really want a Terminator vs Predator crossover just as I want a Terminator Future War movie. Either of which would be fantastic.
@@predator7939 Here is an even more potent WTF moment. After becoming aware and sentient, Skynet accesses secret government documents.

@@GodofWarChuka Brother, is this you?!
In my opinion one of the greatest action movies of all time. Thank you Minty for the review!
Of all the "Predator" films, the first film will always be the best one. Arnold Schwarzenegger and company were such a badass group.
Bill Paxton was in Predator 2. So, he was killed by a predator, a terminator, and an alien.
wstine79 *Paxton but yes that's right🖒
BriefcaseBlues sorry. Auto-correct
wstine79 lol all good. I miss Paxton. Great actor.
Even Lance. Plus both of their names were used in Contra.

@@andylucas6962: Yeah, takin' his 10-year-old daughter to such a movie!
I like to think I'd do that.
Sonny Landham, who played Billy, also played a tough Indian character named Billy in "48 Hours" with Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy.
He was also a 70's porn star haha!
He was also got elected to congress and worked as a congressman.
@@pmorrison77 I heard that too So did Sylvester Stallone and Jackie Chan
The Predator character was one of the best monsters ever filmed
The predator takes on two future governors.
Plus they battled each other in the Running Man.
three governors .Billy actually ran for governor of New Mexico or Arizona
And nearly wins
Jw Nj dude wins
No disrespect but what does it say about our society?
What would Rocky say if he was in a sci fi movie?
........
YO ALIEN!
hahahahaha
i think he did two in th' 80s, didn't he? judge dredd, and that one where he goes to the future and listens to advertisements.
@@atomictraveller Stallone did Dredd and Demolition man. The joke is what if Rocky though.
Another fact : Despite the title of the 1987 film being "Predator" no one actually says it. The word "Predator" is never mentioned at all throughout the film.
Rashad Crushfield but they do say “like a hunter”, the original title.
the first time you hear the term used in by Gary Busey in Predator 2, only once I think.
KVA1 in the original predator after blains body is stolen Dutch comments its hunting them one by one to which Billy responds, “like a hunter”.

That's sposed to be Arnold in the NES game?? Damn I was sure it was Bret the Hitman Hart.
Lol lol lol
Love all the Predator movies! And enjoyed both AVP flicks too
Thank you for such informative and entertaining videos.
I love how this guy literally gets all of his info from Wikipedia
For video games, I preferred the Predator arcade game.

One of the best arcade games ever made. That's why I own the arcade PCB board.
Don't forget the Alien vs. Predator arcade game from Capcom as well. I liked that.
Great video brother , you know I'll watch Predator videos ANYTIME !!
I really appreciate the content Minty.
This is probably a really unpopular opinion but I think that while thay aren't as good as the original i really like predator 2 and predators
Toby Bliss Hey, I like them all!
Toby Bliss Both were good. P2 had a bit of Robocop style urban satire. The bit when Danny Glover gets out of the Jamaicans' car, amid an opaque column of smoke, coughs, and says, Maybe you guys ought cut down, is one of my fave jokes in a non comedy. Ps on the other hand, was a total homage to Predator and is honestly about as good as a Predator sequel can get without destroying itself. Part of the appeal of the Predator isn't covering the mysteries of the creature, what does it look like, what it can it do, why is it doing this? Once those questions are answered such franchises die fast. Look at Alien / Prometheus and Terminator these days.
Predators is great!
Toby Bliss That subway scene in 2, intrigued and scared the shit out of me as a kid.
I love the 2010 version so much.
Kevin Peter Hall also played the helicopter pilot in the end. Also the Indian that played Billy had to have body gurads on set not to protect him but to protect people from him. This was also required by the production companies insurance company All this is on the special features of the anniversary DVD. Love the videos. Keep em coming
Minty thanks
The problem with the predators is that they aren't scary,they're too gosh darn adorable.You just want to tickle their cute little mandibles and go "Goochie Goochie Goo!".
Minty you missed one of the most awesome things you didn't know... The iconic Predator clicking sound was created by Peter Cullen, whom did the voice of Optimus Prime from Transformers G1 and movies. He got the idea from a dead grab he saw.
Can't imagine how u keep cranking out quality content at this high rate. Arent u a one-man shop? Good grief u have some work ethic. So appreciated!
Awww yeeeeaaaa thank you for using that awesome intro music. One of the best scores in a movie.
TheDudeReviews Can hear just the first few bars of it, and I get that same feeling I did the first time I saw it in the theater's!
Hey Minty, just wanted to let you know respectively that Van Damm wasn't fired, he quit when he found out he was going to be completely covered not showing his face. He wanted people to see it was him. Just what I've heard in other facts and behind the scene interviews. Love your channel. Thank you
Amazing Video As Always.
Minty is The Greatest RUclipsr Ever. ❤
LOVE this movie.
Get to the chopper, Minty.
wstine79 it’s GET TO THA CHAPPAAA
Absolutely love these videos
Totally enjoy your videos. If you are ever in great lakes region I'd grab a pint or several with you and talk about Teen Wolf.
This channel never lets me down.
Superman Vs. Predator. Alien Vs. Alien, (if on Earth).
The game was on several platforms.
Sadly the actor who played the Predator died from a.i.d.s dues to a bad blood transfusion. R.I.P. Kevin Peter Hall.
Superman kill an alien in he's stomach thanks to the sun.
The alien become a problem to him because he was on the planet without the yellow sun.
Nailed it. Really good vid man.
Thanks for the vid sir.👍🏼👍🏼
Fun fact, they needed bodyguards on set for Sonny landham, not to protect him, but to protect the rest of the cast from him!.
They also had to have guards to protect Langham from Jesse Ventura.
I wouldn't want to meet that guy in a back alley. He was also one of the bad guy in 48 Hours
Billy almost felt like a stand in for Rambo. Had a very similar look and everything. I'm confident Rambo would have been able to put up a better fight, however.
Ah, Predator vs Batman, Tarzan and Aliens bring me back to my childhood. Thanks for the Nostalgia trip Minty!
Your choice of films to review match my tastes perfectly - great
