My uncle bought me a limited edition DVD of Predator for Christmas. I have a list of movies that I never got around to seeing, and Predator was pretty high on that list. Until last night.
And it did not fail to disappoint.
It was Arnie at his cigar-smoking, troop-leading, wisecracking best.
And I loved every minute of it.
Among the best of the quotes from the movie (and there were lots of them) were:
1) Texan cowboy soldier called - wait for it - Blain, in the middle of a gunfight. Token geek (who was obviously the communications specialist for the team of crack commandoes) says to him:
"You're bleeding man."
Blain's response: "I ain't got time to bleed."
Brilliant!!
Followed closely by Arnie's comment when he sees that the predator they have been hunting has been hit by one of their bullets:
"If it bleeds, we can kill it."
It was cheesy, it was funny, it was full of gratuitous violence - what more could you want?

It's a work of genius. Almost as good as Commando...
next on my list.
Yeah, that I ain't got time to bleed guy, Jesse Ventura, became GOVERNOR of Minnesota.
Sadly, I admit, I voted for the man.
They called him the governator.
Oh dear. hehe
