The title pretty much says it all, is the original still a fun romp or are the biceps too prevalent?

well I watched the first one before the newest and I was really happy I did. There are so many references and cool things I picked up from watching the first one so if the movie is still fresh in your mind I would say it would be worth it.

Heck yeah.  You should watch the first if you hated Predators or haven't even seen it.  It is just one of those movies that if you consider yourself a fan of movies that needs to be seen.

Considering the original Predator is an absolute classic, I would have to say yes.

Without a doubt!  The original is a classic.

@remaininlight: Well I'm satisfied with that.

@WalkerTR77: hah. glad i could help. honestly, while i feel the original has it's charms, it's pretty slowly paced by today's standards. I think it's pretty boring, and I realise that I'm in the minority here, but I think predator 2 was better (in that it was way more stupid, and therefore way more awesome).

After watching the first, you'll have no idea how you could even like Predators.
