Godzilla 2014 felt like a movie made by a guy embarrassed to be making a giant monster movie.

Killing off Bryan Cranston so Kickass could become the main character is one of the dumbest decisions in movie history.

I want to see a Godzilla where he kills all humans everywhere, because all attempts to harm him just make him stronger.

Killing off the actor the general audience wanted to see five minutes into the godzilla movie where you don't see godzilla until after 2 hours of bland action man with no characteristics other than "our troops" and "love family," subverting everyone's expectations forever.

People kept talking about how amazingly well integrated Tig was but every scene of her interacting with characters was about as stilted and weird as the reused Carrie Fisher footage in RotS.

There was a Godzilla anime a few years back where the human race abandoned Earth because Godzilla was murdering everyone and everything.

How can anyone possibly care about 'Predator' as a franchise? They so thoroughly smashed it out of the park the first time. The only thing that happens now is it fails.
Here Hollywood do this: Re-released the original Predator into theaters instead. Nothing but profit and a guaranteed good-rear end movie.

One of my favorite moments in Rise of Skywalker was when an actress lit so all you see is her silhouette picks up a medal and lays down while a CGI creature looks at the audience and tells us what is currently going through Leias mind.

It's funny when movie monsters crafted to be scary as gently caress and virtually unbeatable by trained combat people, usually end up being killed by small town unskilled teenagers after 3-4 films.

Every franchise owned by Fox (Starswar (yes I know distribution blah blah stfu), Predator, Alien, Die Hard, etc.) just needs to be permanently shut down.

No one will ever make a good one as long as producers exist. Every one of those original films was great because the creatives had absolute control and were flying under the radar of the money dipshits.

You can't force art and no one wants soulless sequels to 40 year old classics. For gently caress's sake keep making comics book poo poo forever if the alternative is ANOTHER piece of poo poo Predator film.

It will turn out that the Predators approached the Space Jockey civilization to create the Xenos, for them to hunt.

And at the end of the movie a Jedi will be dispatched to investigate this illegal genetics operation.

And there we have that brand synergy.

Have the movie set on the predator planet. They abduct a team of earth's most dangerous humans to hunt and do battle. There could even be other alien species on the predator planet the humans can work with to survive. Slam dunk concept, no way you could screw it up unless you cast huge dorks as the leads. I dunno like Topher Grace or Adrien Brody or something, that would be pretty lol

Probably the worst thing you could do is pull a Godzilla and kill off the Cranston early so the audience is stuck with Kick-rear end.

Like if you hired Danny Trejo as the badass and murked him right away then some scrawny douche became the protagonist.
