Mandalor the hell out of the Predator franchise.

Whoever wins the upcoming copyright battle for the Predator franchise I wish they would take the franchise in the direction that Disney did with the Mandalorian.

The Mandalorian series proved that :

  1. A silent protagonist can be just as likeable if not even more likeable than a talking one.
    and
  2. Current technology advancements allows filming of realistic alien worlds like never before.

Plus series have the advantage of developing lore and characters in a much more natural way than trying to jam everything into 90 mins.

It could be a different Predator in each episode going of to hunt on an alien planet or we follow the story of a specific one and invest in his story arc.

At some point a human could be involved, first as a captured game, but turned into an ally after something happens to the Predatorā€™s craft that forces it to crash on an alien hostile world where both the predator and the human must collaborate to survive and get off the planet.

Feel free to add ideas! : )

Mandalorian is an absolute rarity and weā€™ll probably never have anything like it again because actors are self-obsessed with their star power and sign contracts to only wear helmets 10 minutes tops.
Only Filoniā€™s autism and dedication made this happen & he had more freedom since itā€™s a TV series.

The GI Joe snake eyes movie coming outā€¦Iā€™m hurt.
Itā€™s Stallone Dredd all over again. Hollywood DESPISES silent and/or masked protagonists. They do not understand the appeal of mysterious characters and would never ever make a movie with an unhuman looking alien as the protag. Iā€™ll believe that can happen when we get a sequel to District 9.
Ray Park/Darth Maul was a perfect snake eyes and the guy doesnā€™t have a problem not showing his face.

Thatā€™s why šŸ˜

Mandalorian is complete dogshit tho, and Mando is incredibly unlikable because of how much of an incompetent moron he is.

For Predator tho, a tvshow could probably work but youā€™d need people that actually cared about what theyā€™re doing and not people trying to feed old nostalgia to sell merch.

This is why youā€™re so fun at parties.

Yes you are, heā€™s relatable trust me

What a strange opinion.

Mando > Boba

Fett fans can fight me but he will forever be a washed up old guy who mostly just stood around in the background before falling into a sarlacc pit.

Lone Wolf and Cub plot of the series is 100% an improvement and heā€™s very much his own character. Fettā€™s the one who was barely a character.

I dunno why you would expect Star Wars production or resources from Predator lol if they turned it into a show itā€™d be even lower quality. Mandalorian costs like $12 million average per episodeā€¦ Predator isnā€™t gonna get that kinda funding or trust.

You relate to an incompetent bounty hunter that risk the life of the child heā€™s protecting by leaving him alone way too many times and taking way too many unecessary risks when heā€™s around? Okay i hope life goes well for you.

Thatā€™s why iā€™m not a mindless consumer that keeps lowering his standard about show and character writing.

Canā€™t stand either, both are completly incompetent in their ā€œcanonā€.
I take Jango over theses two clowns without a shadow of a doubt.

See lone Wolf and cub

I keep hearing about it so i definetly will, but iā€™m 100% positive that isnā€™t a fair comparaison, besides itā€™s pretty unrelated because iā€™m talking about The Mandalorian, not something else.

Flies into the middle of an arena with 0 situational awareness, DIVES FOR A FORCE USERS LIGHTSABER and gets decapitated infront of his son.

Bravo.

Mando is shit at fighting animals and thatā€™s fine.

Mando being a terrible parent is part of his charm. Watch Lone Wolf and Cub.

There would be no show if he just left the child at frog daycare.

Heā€™s more then competent, he is to good at his Job and yes sometimes as a parent you have to have people watch your kids while you do businessā€¦kid, since you are obviously šŸ™„ and he changes through the whole series to a man who hunts scum to breaking his own Mandalorian honor so he can save his child!

Then he has no choice but to give up his child! So ya if you didnā€™t like the series your not even a real fan
