A few years back the hack Rodriguez talked about a sequel, this time totally based on his ridiculous early script (pred bikes, preds taking a piss on a human prisoner, four armed pred mutants, preds trading slaves with humans equipped with a pred-human language translator device, etc....)
I guess in a normal world Mctiernan , Silvestri , Joel Silver and Winston studio would 've ignored" Predators" like Rodriguez ignored "Predator 2" (stating that Predator 2 was crap in the process)
and make the true Predator 3, based on Predator 2 outstanding ending.
But It's not a normal world, is it ?
I may be wrong but I believe Nimrod Antel is a prime reason for the script change. I think Rodriquez himself said that it would have ended up like Avatar [which I am glad Antel changed it].
Rodriguez might have said that he ignored Predator 2 intentionally, but he could have also had his own version of a sequel. I don't think the world is UN-normal for liking the new Berzerker's or the movie. Would I have changed some things as far as the "look" of the new Berzerkers? Yes. I didn't like the lack of quills, depending on which view of the head it looks completely different [the Hot Toys one looks even different], I was up and down as far as the netting goes, and the lower mandibles.
As far as "true" Predator movies go. Are we going to see something like the original or the original sequel? No. I don't believe anyone could have done it better or do it better today. Is it nice to see the Predator universe expand? In my opinion, yes.
