Stallone vs. Predator?
September 26, 2006 - The online rumor mill was abuzz this morning with word that Sylvester Stallone might be in the running to star in 20th Century Fox's long-planned Predator 3, taking over from his Planet Hollywood partner Arnold Schwarzeneggar, who starred in the first installment.

The sequel would reportedly happen after the now-filming Alien vs. Predator 2. Citing a scooper, IESB.net quotes the source as claiming: "Stallone might be being coaxed to do battle with the new Predator. Guess they're thinking someone who can equal Arnie's statue? Not that he'd be playing the same character. I'd say that the plan is solely on FOX's end, and not Sly's end - who seems to have enough 'franchises' on the go."

Stallone's reps at Boulevard Management advised IGN that they never heard of the project, and sources close to the studio also denied the report.

IESB.net also claims that the storyline of AvP2 will owe more to James Cameron's Aliens than it will to the first AvP.

Stallone's already in the new Rocky and Rambo movies so why not Predator...

I liked that tidbit about the end of AVP2. I hope they bring it more towards what ALiens was, like the games.

If the 3rd movie has any tie in with AVP then it will suck.

Sad because Predator as a series alone didn't have a bad movie yet. Unlike Alien which they anally raped after Aliens. 3 and 4 were so bad gah.

I liked Predator 1 alot. I havn't seen 2 in awhile but I plan on buying it sometime soon and watching it again cause I remember liking it.

Have you seen the director's cut of Alien 3? It's a far better movie. The studio really ****ed over Fincher and destroyed the film for it's theatrical release.

I personally like Predator 2 more than the first one. *dodges bullets*

No I never bothered to watch it.

My Dad rented it and told me about it though. Bascially what you told me that they studio made him make a movie he didn't want to. he said while the DC was better it wasn't worth watching still.

I'll have to see P 2 to see if I agree or not. I like the whole hunter, hunted thing they got going on in the first one so let's see how 2 bears up.

*cqb101* · 09-28-2006, 04:47 PM

I like the second one better because of the setting. I like the fact that it takes place in the middle of a crowded city instead of a secluded jungle. Makes it more excting, and I think it works better for the story.

Predator is a superior film, but I enjoy Predator 2 more. If that makes sense.

I knew it!! Martha Stewart is really a Predator!

But seriously....a major big battle taking place in a K-Mart??? There's either gonna be a reference to "Rain Man" or a bunch of Martha Stewart's stuff is gonna be destroyed....

Hell, this is exciting news, right here.

I can't wait for Predator 4 starring Bruce Willis, where the Predator fights him at Planet Hollywood.

I'm still waiting for Predator vs. Mike Tyson.

*Deathknight* · 10-03-2006, 01:05 PM

Another sequel? Argh, AVP wasn't that good what makes them think making Predator 3 will be any better? Why can't we have more original ideas rather just making more of the same? Though who knows, it might actually be good.

Stimor · 10-03-2006, 04:09 PM

why did you connect avp and predator 3 like that? it would not work at all even with avp & avp2

That'd be intense. Tyson bites off a dreadlock just before getting harpooned through the chest. Then you hear the Predator call him an ugly mofo in trademark gurgling English.

I have always enjoyed the Predator movies much better than the Alien movies. I just say have the movies seperate.. I wasn't even excited when AVP came out.

I don't understand what you think "would not work at all." Are you implying that No Predator movie can work even with AVP and AVP2? Because, if you are, that makes it sound like you're also saying AvP would be some sort of saving grace for the Predator franchise. Then I would say you're an idiot, because the AvP movie is nothing more than a bastardization of a couple great games, made by the same spermnugget that brought us such great films as Resident Evil, and the amazing sequel that astoundingly topped the first by its amount of errors, and spectacular POS effects.

But if you're not saying that, then that's cool.
