It was also basing it off the state of the city at that time, with lots of civil unrest and skyrocketed crime, predicting it to be a downright warzone by later in the decade. Which obviously didn't happen, it's not a paradise but it did stabilize from the chaotic early 90s.
The first Predator guarantee this will be the name of a prequel was great but Predator 2 was just loads of fun every moment. It's probably one of the best sequels to an already great movie of all time.
I grew up watching Predator 2 a shit ton. Not as much as Pred 1. But the Predator 2 version was broadcast tv, edited out the cussing, so Danny Glover is yelling these ridiculous things that don't make any sense.
I had a copy from Saudi Arabia, which didn't edit out the swearing, but slightly edited the violence (mostly just the shot of the druglord's heart being shown ), and edited out the brief nudity of the Colombian druglord's mistress so the scene is truncated a bunch.
Yeah the local tv broadcast that was taped had more violence removed than that in addition to the all the swearing being removed. Back then there would be a message that popped up briefly during the broadcast, "edited for content". Nothing coming up on youtube then again their search is horrible. If I find the tape I should upload it, the edited for content bits. For history.
The wackiest edit I had was the British release of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from 1990. There was a strange crackdown in Britain around that time on the idea of "ninja weapons", specifically nunchaku, because kids would hurt each other with them or something, so the cartoon was called Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. But for the film, everything was the same except two scenes, first the "Ah, a fellow 'chuker, eh?" exchange with Mikey and a Foot goon doing a nunchaku off, but more prominently, the climax removed the shot of Mikey's nunchaku catching on the fire escape, which Splinter uses, and any shot of Splinter using them so you don't have the part of Splinter dangling Shredder over the edge of the building and giving him his final line before dropping him when Shredder tries to throw a knife at him. Instead Shredder just runs at him and gets flipped over straight off the building into the dumptruck, which makes Splinter look hilariously ruthless as he just instantly threw him to his death.
i don't know WHO he is....
but i know WHERE he is....
P2 was fun. not great but a shit ton better than anything that came after.
yeah, dunno why it gets so much shit, the voodoo gang was awesome
>Gary Busey
>Paxton
>Danny Glover
>breasts
>Cool twist with the old pistol trophy.
>A different environment
There's a lot of good stuff here.
The 90s gangland theme id an acquired taste, but one I'm personally nostalgic for.
I think it would've been better set in NYC, LA is such a generic looking city.
Yeah but the idea was a massive heatwave to make it more “jungle”ish.
Anyway, it’s a based sequel. Love the continuation of the lore. It and Alien 3 are hated for no good damn reason

I liked Predator 2 a lot more when I started thinking of it as an adaptation of a Dark Horse comic book.
It was.
I can't tell what the frick is going on here

His foundation lies in the holy mountain.
I like 2 more than the 1st
Same. More interesting environment, story, characters, better costume work.

Examples.
I grew up hearing the "clean" edits of Samuel L Jackson movies. and wondered if other movies also did that.
I can't really remember and it makes me sad. I'm trying to look for it but nothing's coming up. I wonder if I still have the tape. Possibly.

If I was hungover, this shot in motion would likely make me vomit all over my LG UltraGear QHD 32-Inch Gaming Monitor. It's sickening.
Damn right
