    From Jon Madsen’s Movie Commentary Podcast:

    Through much peer pressure I’ve given in. It was demanded that we do Predator 2 since Zo and Jen hate it while Maxim and Scott love it. Fortunately both parties (finally) made it to the debate. Conclusion: neutral. Is the “urban jungle” a nice evolution of the franchise or a silly gimmick? Is the sequel automatically bad for simply being a sequel to something so good? What is the best Gary Busey movie? Zo and Jen don’t pop in until a half hour into the movie, so be patient.

    If they had known all this stuff … in Predator 1 … it wouldn’t have made it as scary. … That’s what sequels are for. … That’s the same thing with Aliens.And the New Testament. Do you hate the New Testament, Jen? It’s a sequel. — Jon Madsen and friends,
