I was hosting a trivia show recently and all 8-10 teams bombed question so I offered them a do over.
In Predator, what does Dutch ask Dillon when they greet?
Nobody knew.

But the first 20 mins of FMJ are pretty tough to beat. I mean we're talking Mt Rushmore of the 1st 20 mins of a movie type stuff.
-
100% agree. FMJ is a must watch movie because of the beginning. The rest of the movie is kinda whatever IMO
-
This reasonable request is the highlight of in country FMJ in my opinion

You can't truly appreciate 7.62 NATO otherwise.

Full Metal Jacket.
I should give RoboCop a rewatch. I bet it has been 30 years. Maybe 10 years on Predator and Lost Boys.

Predator.

Predator is also a good example of something that was perfect and didn't need to be a franchise and is now taken over by nerds. The first movie was cool with badasses taking on a mysterious monster. The second was kind of cool and had some good gore if that's your think. Now we have animated series' and endless movies for a property that was legit just one good movie and now there's a mega nerd mythology about it. Same with Alien (though Aliens is a GOAT movie too). The alien franchise went from a scary ass mysterious alien and now it's all about how like what mixture of DNA creates these aliens? Huh?

I really liked the newest 3 alien movies for what they were. You aren't getting a bunch of 80's/90's horror action but you are getting some pretty disturbing kills and a unique sense of dread, a legit incredible actor, etc. The first couple kills that start in the medical lab in Covenant was all time sci fi horror material.
And then Romulus those first scenes/shots of the mining planet they were on, you can't get better sci-fi cinematography than that. Bonus points for how creepy it was to revive a deceased actor with AI. Bonus bonus points for again nailing the casting and getting Cailee Spaeny who is girl-next-door fucking hot and great in everything she's in.
They are goofy at times trying to introduce the Protoss looking aliens and Prometheus was the worst of the 3 which is why people probably gave up on the series, but they are great horror films and pretty unique.
I see they're making a movie adaptation of Alien Isolation which is almost guaranteed to get back to the 80's/90's style of the first movies.

OG Predator was amazing when I saw it in the theater in 1987. I like it so much that it’s 1 of 2 movies I purchased on amazon (a Xmas movie is the other purchase).
Predator 2 was ok but it jumped the shark. I’ve seen most of the movies in the franchise and they’re all deeply flawed. I just looked up the OG on IMDb and saw there are 2 more Predators coming out this year. Why?
Shane Black, famous for Lethal Weapon and who played Hawkins in the OG, directed a franchise movie called The Predator. It was fucking terrible. I turned it off after 20 minutes.
Every single movie after the 87 classic is crap. Pure fucking crap.
