[CelticPredator]

What?

I gave you an answer......??? :confused:

Sorry, but this is just cheap and horrible.

I gotta agree... as much as I'm excited about this movie...
this Pred looks terrible...

Not as bad as Scar, but worse than Wolf for sure...

I don't care, the thread was warned several times. If trolling members bother people let the mods know and we'll take care of it, don't take matters in your own hands or you're no better and will suffer consequences.

I don't care who was challenging who, it's not necessary to retaliate, you could ignore, but people didn't and the responses were out of control.

Stuff like that is bound to happen, if people are going to choose to react poorly instead of ignoring and reporting then threads will be close.

I know a lot of the members involved in all this and I know they're capable of behaving better, since the ignored my asking them to do so, so now they have now they can think about how much they want to talk about this movie and if they're willing to play nice so they'll have a place to talk about it.

Unfortunately immature people think they are cool by name-calling and acting up like brats... you'd think they'd know better... :dunno

Never mind....new names, confirmed by production credits for the Predators Premiere are-

CAREY L. JONES and BRIAN STEELE as the .......................
..... Berserker Predator, Tracker Predator & Falconer Predator
DEREK MEARS as the .................................. Classic Predator


So there we go. I'm still calling him Mr. Black. :p

Like these names... HT surely has all of them in the works... :panic:

I have to. I have to have more then 10 characters in a post.

[tankman]

I'm really digging these new Preds and I think this movie is goint to jumpstart a new interest in Predators.

I feel the same way and the more Predator sculpting I get to do the better. Predators are just so freaking cool.

[A.L.I.E.N]

Predators are just so freaking cool.

Amen brother :exactly: :hi5: :goodpost: :peace

[uscmhicks]

Noticing the small tv spots on tv now. Probably going to be a day one viewing for me this. I'm looking forward to it.

[Series600]

So is Tracker the one everyone's been calling Mr. Black, while Berserker is the dog handler with tusks on his mask? I know which one is the Falconer, because of the pic with his mechanical bird on his shoulder. Or would Berserker be Mr. Black?

[CelticPredator]

No. Berserk is Mr. Black. Tracker is obviously Falconer.

[CelticPredator]

And his "bird" doesnt sit on his shoulder.

What CP said.
Berserker is the one with the jawbone mask, the one with the tusks is the dog handler and the other one is the falconer.

And where, ANYWHERE, have you seen pic of the falconer Pred with the falcon sitting on it's shoulder?

Unless I am completely wrong here, I believed this to be the falcon on his shoulder.

[A.L.I.E.N]

What the Hells is that on his shoulder! Looks to big to be a plasma caster....

[Series600]

That was my first thought, why I believe that is the mechanical falcon.

[A.L.I.E.N]

Hmmmm im in two minds about the "falcon" itself, it's cool as a UAV BUT would the Preds really design it to look like a falcon? A bird of Earth? Surely it would be based on a flying creature from their homeworld?

[Series600]

It was seen flying(twice) and heard screeching(once) in the new trailer.

[Series600]

Not to mention the fact that... If we're paying attention to events from Predator 2, the preds have been coming to Earth for hundreds of years, and take whatever they want.

[A.L.I.E.N]

Im not doubting it's existance, just saying why base it on a Falcon? Why not a flying creature from The Pred planet?

[A.L.I.E.N]

They come to hunt, not to steal Birds! :lol :rotfl :slap

[Series600]

Ok, so they hunted birds, too! Not an uncommon idea, and they might have been intrigued by birds if, say, they have none on their home world.

[A.L.I.E.N]

Agreed fair play but still, why take one?

[Series600]

Scientific research. A hunters curiosity, maybe one even flew into their ships open door(like at my work last week).

[A.L.I.E.N]

On a bird? They are way more advanced than us, why research birds when they have ships that can go at the speed of light?

[hko]

What the Hells is that on his shoulder! Looks to big to be a plasma caster....

I think that somebody is holding a gun to his head (Laurence Fishburne had a some kind of alien weapon in the trailer).

[Series600]

If it was you, and you were on a planet with new creatures you've never seen, plus you have quite an imagination(based on the fact that you have a space ship), wouldn't you be slightly interested?

[A.L.I.E.N]

If I was ruthless alien hunter coming to a planet to prove my worth I wouldn't look at birds, as they aren't worthy game, I'd be looking at the biggest creature and how to kill it

[Series600]

Exactly, and a "bird's eye view," while still on the ground is a great way to hunt the biggest creature.

[A.L.I.E.N]

Thats cheating though, if you want a good hunt, you have to learn and adapt on your own. Pred code anyways....

[Series600]

This isn't exactly a Predator clan that is up to code on their ethics, is it? Dog handler- hunt your pray down with K-9's, Berserker, by definition, get yourself rivaled up before battle, supposedly other things they've done to themselves which may or may not be true. Who's to say they are not wiling to go the extra mile to cheat in order to win?

I suppose, so this Falcon is it Cybernetic or Organic?

[Series600]

But that's one main reason why I really like the idea of these Predators,they are different, not to be expected to follow their species' own codes, break the rules to gain the advantage, to learn, to adapt in their own way. The reason I'm posting in this thread, I like these Predators by their possibilities.

[A.L.I.E.N]

Im not arguing with you im just debating

[Series600]

If the previous reports are correct, it is mechanical, non-organic, it "delivers"what it has seen in the sky to the Pred, I assume through his bio helmet, as it looks to have some extra additions to it, maybe to receive the falcons "report"

[Series600]

Im not arguing with you im just debating

Agreed, I am also not arguing with you, I think this is a good debate.

[A.L.I.E.N]

Agreed, I am also not arguing with you, I think this is a good debate.

It's hard to find good health discussion sometimes, so this is cool :yess: :exactly:

[Series600]

Yes, I feel the same... But I wonder if we've run that particular discussion through it's course completely.

[Series600]

At any rate, I am interested to see if Berserker has any special hunting trait(other than riving himself up before battle like his name suggests) like his companions do, dogs and bird, or if Berserker is the one of the three who is more admirable because he may only rely on his own hunting skills and techniques.

[Series600]

Also, getting back to my post that started this debate, I now have a better understanding about the Predator names since the pic of the figures was put up. They kept the name Falconer, while bone jaw, Mr Black, is Berserker, and tusk pred has to be Tracker.

Yeah, he seems to be the leader of the pack. So it's possible he has earnt the role by being the best hunter :goodpost:

[CelticPredator]

They're bearly hunters. They're more killers then hunters.

[laudel7]

I think the falcon will be a mixture of biological and mechanical

[Sabres21768]

After magnifying this clip and studying it, I can tell you that it is biomech.

As it passes the camera and starts to move forward, you can see a heat trail being left in its wake.

So, it has some kind of exhaust.

If you look closely, you can see a 'vent' under each wing right next to the body.

What I find odd is that it flaps only one wing in this short clip.

Hmmmm can't say untill I watch the movie, my opinions on the falcon I mean.

Nice find! I didnt see the exhaust until now. Cant see the the thing you are referring to under the wing though.
But it flips only one wing because he's taking a turn.

It would be quite impossible for it to be only biological, because its got to have some sort of camera/predator mask hooked up to it, in order for the Falconer predator to see what it sees. Yet I dont think its purely mechanical either because the wings move way too smoothly, and the creature makes primal noises. Oh, and ofcourse, it looks biological...

[laudel7]

And it makes that eagle type sound

[CelticPredator]

Thats for the trailer only.

[fawk3s]

How do you know that?

[A.L.I.E.N]

How do you know that?

Celtic has read the script, maybe it says the Falcon is silent?

[uscmhicks]

I hate when they do that , I remember watching the dark knight trailers countless times and getting used to small scenes being in certain ways and really liking them , then when finally getting to see the finished film those scenes were changed.

[fawk3s]

Celtic has read the script, maybe it says the Falcon is silent?

I know he has, but I doubt its not gonna make any noise...

[8th wonder]

These are some lazy %ss preds though:lol with their dogs and falcons, what's wrong with stalking and climbing trees:lol. They are probably to snobbish for that.

[CelticPredator]

I know he has, but I doubt its not gonna make any noise...

it wont be a human bird noise...lol.

I mean, it's not even a bird.....:panic:

[Matt13]

What exactly would a human bird sound like? Maybe that could be the sequels next prey!

[wHySoSeRiOuS203]

I was told there'd be donuts?

[Spanbauer]

Is there a thread for people who don't like the new predator designs? :monkey3

[Blade3327]

Dogs and falcons... what's wrong with hamsters and ostriches?

[fawk3s]

it wont be a human bird noise...lol.

I mean, it's not even a bird.....:panic:

Human bird......................... wut? :D
But what is it when it doesnt make any noises?

[CelticPredator]

I ____ed up on what I was trying to say...lol. I ment to say a normal bird. I dont know why I said human bird...lmao.

It's just a mech thing. The script it was an Alien bird, but they changed that I think.

[fawk3s]

I never thought it was a bird though, I thought of it more like one of those flying dinosaurs. But then again, I didnt think it was a machine either...

Well it would make a pretty boring film if they did excactly what happened in previous films. TBH I think some of you crazy fanboys would be better off staying at home fapping over your P1 DVD than going to see this film cause nothing will ever be good enough for you.

Hey Slugs, i for one think this movie can be quite good. I was just making a joke, i actually like the dogs and the falcon. If this movie rocks i want a predator dog figure.

No need to defend yourself man, the last bit was just a generalization and wasn't reffering to you. Just some of the coments ive read in here and the other thread just sound like they want a carbon copy of P1.
