“What? I thought Predator already had a sequel called Predator 2 and a few other movies called Alien Vs. Predator? How could this be?” I’m glad you asked!

Notice that it’s horror heroine and not horror chick. A film can have a sorority’s worth of horror chicks, but only one horror chick gets to be the Final Girl, that heroine who outlasts all the rest.
Our action heroine Action Flick Chick under her codename @actionchick raised the issue in twitter.

Man! I love Predator. I love everything about it. It has a lot of action and it’s well paced, brutal and pulse poundingly suspenseful! You just know at the very beginning that everyone is going to get their balls chopped off, metaphorically speaking.

Arnold turned down an offer to do a Predator sequel because he didn’t like the script. He decided to do Terminator 2: Judgment Day instead.
Arnold once stated, “I took more abuse in Predator (1987) than I did in Conan the Barbarian (1982). I fell down that waterfall [40 feet] and swam in this ice-cold water [...]

Sigourney Weaver, Eliza Dushku, Zoe Saldana, and Elizabeth Mitchell. What do all these names have in common? They’re all women who kick a lot of ass! And I was super pumped to be at this panel during Comic-Con 2009. All of these women have set good examples for women everywhere by playing strong female roles in movies or TV shows, and done quite nicely showing Hollywood that women have what it takes to “run with the big dogs” and basically kick a lot ass along the way.

We do get to see a little softer side of this heroine, Ripley, who’s not just a hard core killing machine like The Bride. Ripley grows fond of a little girl and vows to protect her. Awww, isn’t that sweet. Save it for Oprah!
