Los Angeles 1997
It’s the future, I mean, the past.
I love that helicopter shot going from “the jungle” to L.A.

So all these gang bangers are shooting each other in the middle of the streets.

Jesus! The Predator went in there and massacred everyone. Give it a badge! Officer Predator.

So the stars are a Black man and two Latino’s, one of which is a woman. This movie was doing diversity casting before it was cool.

Okay. You can’t say your movie takes place in 1997 and play Ricko Suave.

So up until now, the movie has been the Predator killing gang bangers while Danny Glover runs and screams. But now, he knows there’s an alien on the loose and the movie is switching gears.

Danny Glover went toe to toe with a Predator and came out victorious. Badass.
Glover > Schwarzenegger
“Get to da choppa? N—ga, I am da choppa.” Choppain’ them Predators in half.

Bill Paxton: the only person to be killed by a Terminator, an Alien and a Predator. Until Lance Henriksen in AvP Technically he was never killed by an Alien. He was split in half, but his character didn't die. Though he was "shut down" by Ripley in the next movie.

Robert Davi Doomsday sat next to him at a Lakers game. I saw him sing jazz at a jazz concert at CES in Vegas last year. Looks like singing is his new career.

"HBO Max, what's a movie SnoBorderZero hates that is also short?" "Predator 2." "Perfect." I wasn't necessarily intending to live blog this a second time, but this movie is a fucking gem. 1. Why does this take place in 1997? There's no attempt whatsoever to make this seem like "the future." 2. Colombian and Jamaican drug cartels in a gun fight on a random L.A. street. Just a Monday for SnoBorderZero. 3. What is this cast? Ruben Blades. Maria Conchita Alonso. Robert Davi. Bill Paxton. A Lethal Weapon reunion minus Mel Gibson. 4. Morton Downey Jr? If it were 1997, it'd be Jerry Springer. 5. This naked chick riding this dude thinks she's Jessie Spano in Showgirls. 6. The action scenes here are ahead of their time. Wild stuff for 1990.

7. Amazing that Bill Paxton plays an idiot in Terminator, Aliens and Predator 2. Dude was typecast.
8. For all the shit this movie gets for being set in a city, they really pulled off the iconography quite well. We were robbed of a potential horror franchise.
9. The effects are top notch.
10. The soundtrack is phenomenal.
