Now that we’ve gotten our first look at Predators](Predators (2010) - Movie | Moviefone), I’m ready to think about the future for this franchise. I know, it’s still a little early. The film doesn’t even hit theaters til July. But given how long it took for this installment to get made I believe the sooner the better as far as developing the next sequel. Any ideas?
Here’s mine: Considering *Predators *appears to do for *Predator *what *Aliens *did for Alie**n](Alien (1979) - Movie | Moviefone) – at least in terms of increasing the number of creatures and appropriately adding the “s” to the title – I think the series should continue to follow its cousin franchise’s lead. We can skip Predator³ because the forgettable *Predator 2 *may be stamped its equivalent. Plus, the setting of Predators is a kind of game preserve, which is like a prison, so we don’t need another. Unless *maybe *it’s set in a metropolitan prison like the Manhattan wasteland of Escape from New York](Escape from New York (1981) - Movie | Moviefone). Yes, *Predator 2 *had the honor of being labeled “*Predator *in a city,” but this would be completely different. Otherwise, put the camouflaging creatures in another terrain besides jungles and forests. How about a desert prison, like an Abu Grabe kind of place?
