Predator: The Predator (Kevin Peter Hall)

Comments for death : Predator: The Predator (Kevin Peter Hall).

The predator should not have died.

It would not be a Hollywood ending though if the main adversary was allowed to live - his death indicates the end of the peril in the film, and everyone can go home safe in the knowledge that the foe has been vanquished (at least until the sequel).

He was a cool baddie though; they just dont seem to make them like they used to.

I think the Predator's explosive device was more meant to erase any evidence of his presence (blowing up himself and the pieces of armor and weaponry laying around after he took them off so there's nothing to be retrieved and studied) and preserve his dignity (rather then admit defeat and allow himself to be killed by his own prey)

Yep, the predator has a Bushido-like hunters code.

Funny, I thought it was a falling log that did the Predator in.

Like Pyro said, the Predator blew himself up to get rid of any evidence of his existence. He would have died anyway from being squashed.

Writeup significantly expanded as it was a bit brief. Also added a load of new categories which I think apply.

I really liked the last lines, reflects what badasses both parties are

Dutch: "What the hell are you?"

Predator: "What the hell are you?"

Bruno! Yes, yes, Lovely to hear from you too! No, no, ze vitness? Do not worry! I haff taken care of ze vitness. Yes, yes. Shoot him? What, ar-are you stupid? No, no I am not going to blow ze plane up! I... haff put snakes... on ze plane.

I always thought the Predator was just parroting back Dutch's lines without understanding them, perhaps to mock him.

Is there any evidence in the sequel that the Predator's have bothered to learn English?
