Those sorts of snowflake Conservatives are super triggered by women in films, especially if they have darker skin and can fill roles typically thought of as masculine. Humans can't survive with their big brains, only big muscles like Ahnold, doncha know.
I will say, though, that I would like to see a group of humans have to put their brains together to survive Predator(s). Human collaboration is how many of our great accomplishments have been possible, after all. If they do another one-on-one show-down it's going to feel like just another appeal to member berries.

Honestly, a solid ass-kicking would probably do them some good.

Women can’t fight.
^^^He wasn't old (he was 44 in 1990’s Predator 2, Arnold was 40 in Predator) OR fat (he even has a shirtless scene to prove it) in Predator 2.Below is Glover in his fifties in 1998’s Lethal Weapon 4.
Still not fat. stick out tongue
That's still fat according to some nerds these days, They expect actor's to look like Star-lord in GOTG 1.

^^^Yeah I’m not buying that; this is just you, unwilling to concede a point.
You stick to your point, though.
I’ve already disproven it and am not going to beat a dead horse.
Nope, its not just me
but whatever's crawled up your ass, Not sure why your all cranky now
unwilling to concede a point?...i didn't start any debate with you. So STFU.

I would argue that is what makes the first Predator movie work so well and partially why the rest don’t hold a candle to it. I hate to use the word “subversion” but it perfectly fits here, the film acts as a subversion of the traditional 80’s action movies. The first half of the film starts like a standard 80’s action movie. You’ve got these big men with big guns (and even bigger “guns”) mowing down mooks while cracking jokes. They even have some heavyweights like Arnold, Jesse Ventura, and Carl Weathers. So it’s quite a twist when suddenly, they are no longer invulnerable action heroes but instead become mooks themselves.

You reminded me of the old movie review show w. the thumbs up/down guys. I always enjoyed their banter but they also taught me early on that they the reviewers have different goals than I the fan.
Some of the things they say about the average moviegoers in the Predator review really stuck w. me.
It’s why I don’t put much stock in reviews today.
Threw in Predator 2 for GP.
