Predator is on Film 4+1 right now enjoy!

Do you guys ever wonder what happened to the way films were done in the 80's?

I miss stuff like this.

Anyone that dislikes Predator cannot get on the choppa.

I know what happened, they stopped making the films for adults and aimed them at teens and younger to get bigger audience.

New die hards, aliens, predators, action films, dont have cursing and boobies etc, they tone it down.

If transformers was made in the 80s it would have had a boob scene and way more adult orientated violence.

I waqs surpised not a single person was skinned in predators.

The films used to be so raw as well, they look all sanitized now.

Not seen Predator on tv for a while does the severed arm scene still get edited out? 

Can't beat the older action films plenty of stunts, explosions, one liners and no CGI.

[EdwCarnby]

Yeah I miss the days of no CGI. I think the Film 4 edit keeps it in. On +1 it's about 40mins in so far.

That is so amazing. I'm watching it now and came across your thread just as he said "get to the chopppaaa !"

Predator was one of them films I watched once and thought it was OK but was never bothered about watching it ever again, I might have watched it one more time after that.
Same with T2, it was fine but I didn't like it enough to want to watch it again although I did like the first one very much.

I did watch Commando over and over when that came out, probably one of the last films Arnie did that I really enjoyed.

I can't say I even enjoyed any of the Alien films that much either and don't get me going on James Bond films, never saw a decent one to date. I've never been into any Star Trek Stuff either but just recently I got around to watching the last movie (well I think it was the latest one, the one with the real Spock in as his future self) and I really did like it.
