07.02.09 OH JOY, ‘PREDATORS’ HAS A DIRECTOR
As if we hadn’t already beaten the dead Predator horse and taken a dump inside its skull and used its spine as dildo for homeless people*, Robert Rodriguez is producing ‘Predators’. The latest word is that they’ve hired Nimrod Antal, director of the Hungarian subway movie Kontroll (which was kind of neat), to direct. Rodriguez said of the plot:
I can’t go too much into the story right now, because we’re still writing. But it still involves a very intense group of people stranded on a Predator planet discovering unspeakable horrors (that are not always from outside their group). So like the original movie, the title does have a double meaning. [via a million-word article on AICN]
Kontroll was interesting, but the list of foreign directors who made cool flicks elsewhere only to come to Hollywood and take paychecks to do garbage is long and consonant filled. In fact, the last guy attached to this project was Neil Marshall, who followed the badass Descent with post-apocalyptic car porn Doomsday. Anyway, I think this will be great if by “intense people” they mean Christian Bale and the silent Indian guy from the first Predator and they just growl at each other like dogs for two hours.
*though to be fair, I have heard people say AVP: R is actually pretty kickass.

Any chance they can exhume Danny Glover’s presumably dead body for this one?
C’mon, anyone with a name like that deserves some slack.
Pttth, “Rodriguez”.
Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go I wanna be predator-ated
There are several types of Predators. The most hated of which is the Predaphile.
Correction, AVP was pretty kickass, AVP:R was pretty retarded. Actually, both are retarded, but AVP was retarded in a fun, downs-kid-chasing-a-duck-then-falling-in-a-pond kind of way.
if it stars Sigourney Weaver as the Predator she will win an Oscar. If somehow Gwenyth Paltrow is cast and dies on the set, the Director will win a Nobel Peace Prize.
There was an R version of AVP? Because the version I saw kicked anything but ass.
Duck, Duck, Predator
This time, its ELEMENTARY!!!
MarkIt, we may need to start seeing other people.
NO! Keep drinking. I’ll look better.
I once told a Predator he had vagina mouth and he lanced me. We’ve been best friends ever since.
If the Predator was looking at me, my crotch would be white in his thermo-vision.
Taking a “dump inside its skull and used its spine as dildo for homeless people” is a premise that can be built on.
@Al
AVP:R was Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem - the sequel to Aliens vs. Predator, which, I agree, sucked nuts of every flavor.
KEEL ME!
Seltzberg are attached to direct AVP: LOL!
I like to think AVP stands for “Asexual Vagina Penis”.
Alright, Vince. Watch AVP:R then. I’ll tell you now though, there’s a highschool swimming pool scene a la The Faculty. Which, was also a Rodriguez pic.
Pictured: Kahless
“via a million word article from AICN”
hey, buckaroos. swanq here. is there any other kind?
what a horrible fucking site.
Yes, Kahless is so awesome, his embodied persona is three men shooting machine guns, but not only three men and three guns, one of the Men is Ahnold and one of the Guns is The Gun.
Harry Knowles is having AVP tonight.
Awesome Velveeta Pizza.
Lince, you keep putting up pics like this, you’ll never get rid of Him.
