predator is tied with Die Hard as the greatest action kino of all time
covering yourself with mud doesn't conceal your body heat
>>79764561
who cares
at least it has
>memorable lines, characters, creature design, score, effects, test through the roof, humor,
>>79764561
it absolutely would reduce your thermal signature though, stop being wrong.
>>79764473
No. It only seems that way at first glance on a surface-level.
>>79764491
Don't you dare forget Conan the Barbarian.
Those three are the holy trinity of action movies.
>>79764473
It is action kino. Highest test movie I know of.
>>79764473
>>79764561
It does to some degree. Who's to say the predators had the same thermal imaging as us?
>>79765482
I love Conan and Predator but Die Hard I find kind of just okay.
predator > t2 > die hard
fight me
>>79765623
I love all three equally. Conan is great low fantasy with a great nihilistic overtone, Predator is the perfect man vs. monster film, and Die Hard has that human touch with a shitload of fleshed out characters (and it helps that literally every single thing shown on screen has a purpose to the narrative).
>>79764491
Anon, you are nothing but 100% correct.
>>79764473
Nu males don't understand the camaraderie of alpha males. Also hunting and fighting.
>>79764491
what could have been if mctiernan didnt go to jail
>One short scene in the helicopter tells you just about everything you need to know about the characters.
Absolute kino.
>>79765639
Why would I fight someone that I agree so wholeheartedly with? And I love all 3 btw.
>>79764561
predator sees using infrared. mud hides infrared waves. its not that hard to shield it.
>John Carpenter's The Thing smells, and smells pretty bad. It has no pace, sloppy continuity, zero humor, bland characters on top of being totally devoid of either warmth or humanity [...] It's my contention that John Carpenter was never meant to direct a science-fiction horror movie. Here's some things he'd be better suited to direct: traffic accidents, train wrecks and public floggings.
>it is too phony to be disgusting. It qualifies only as instant junk.
>a great barf-bag movie
why are movie reviewers so fucking wrong all the time
>>79764473
Predator is a slasher film
Arnold is the only person to have played both, a slasher film villain, and a slasher film final girl in the genre.
He is also the sexiest final girl ever captured on film.
>>79768293
what?
>>79768283
because they only tell their own subjective opinion on things and never really deconstruct movies
>>79768283
cuz they're losers. think about it.
>>79768283
Who said all that? And why should I care what some randoms say when history has proven them wrong?
There's no reason for this movie to be 3 hours long.

>Terminator 1>Predator>Die Hard
Close, but no cigar
>>79765482
Conan is rëddit-tier
>>79765639
>predator higher than T2
What's your address?
>>79764561
Eventually yes, the mud covering him, would heat up. But that key scene at the river, the mud had just been applied to him all over, as well as gettig out of the water reducing the heat on his outer skin
>>79768510
This, skip to ride of the valyries, then skip to them arriving at the temple at the end.
Everything else is filler.

Fuck off

Is there anything more lame than using cumming in your pants to describe a piece of media?

Forgetting that you're posting it on 4chan and not reddit

You're a fucking retard.

Basically the movie review 'industry' for that is what they call it has been in a place for decades now where going against the grain is ill-advised. There are maybe 20 or so film-reviewers in the past 50 years who have actual real opinions about things and can back it up. So what do the rest of them, the uncounted thousands do when it comes time to actually review a film and they are incapable? They ape off the afore mentioned 20.
The "review score" of a movie across the board is determined by which people get their reviews in first and how they feel, if a movie starts at 90% it will stay there, give or take a few trying to be contrarian (note, they are still contrarian even if the movie they are negative about is bad, because the reason they dislike it is purely to go against the norm and not out of any sense of understanding).

And it's shit too. Terrible flick.
>>79765397
mythbusters busted that bullshit
>>79765204
What's memorable about Predator besides "JEEZ, YOU'VE GOT A BIG PUSSY"? Nothing. It's a terrible movie.
>>79765639
Bad Boys 2 > All three
>>79764561
It's the jungle. The surrounding air is hotter than body heat.
>>79769806
did they travel to the amazonian rainforest were the the temperature can reach as high as 100F?
>>79764473
Think of it as The Expendables where the stars are not all over the hill.
>>79769815
This scene is memorable simply because the subtitles make her out to say "worse" when she say's "much much worst"
