I picked mine up at Target for $14.99 along with AvP there as well for $15.99. I don't mind it, the movie isn't the greatest but none of us have the money to make it so I'll accept it.

I'll have to pick this up and upgrade my Predator 2 copy. Honestly, in terms of how good this movie is, it's no better or worse than AVP, save for having lots and lots of gore, so, well, I guess it is better.
But I think many of us fans enjoy it cause, well, it's has Predator in it. Reason why I'll probably pick up AVP too.
In the end, even though I've seen it like 4 times, I can say fully that's it not a good movie. But Preddie looks good as ever, and it's violent as hell. But, it's still a bad movie, directed by a man who has made multiple films that I think suck that I reallly was hoping would be good (Lost in Space, Ghost in the Darkness).
I think that's why I was so appalled by AVP's pg-13 rating. While I can tolerate AVP cause, well, it is what it is, at least Alien Ressurection and Predator 2 offer us the goods when it comes to cheap exploitative violence.

I've noticed people are getting the DVD at Best Buy. Circuit City has it this week for only $12.99, if you are interested.

What type of case does the Original Predator SE come in? Both Predator 2 and AVP come in regular cases w/ a slip cover right?

to get bestbuy extra 10% you have to make your purchse then walk over to the customer desk and show the ad with the better price and tell them to price match.
99.9% of the time you cannot get the 10% extra at register.

Just finished watching it. With the improved audio and video, it was a lot better than I remembered. It is hands down better than Alien vs stupid. Take away the hardcore tv show silliness and it is a pretty good follow-up without Arnie. The subway and meat plant are awesome scenes.

I got it for $11.97 at Wally World Picked that up and Sky Captain for $14.97. And I had AVP pre-ordered at Suncoast,so I got that too. I have to watch Sky Captain soon. I loved AVP,and Predator 2 is a cool underrated movie,but not nearly as good as the 1st
