The Predator Trailer 2: 9 Things You Might Have Missed

9. Stringing A Body Up

Early on in the trailer, the first interaction we see between the humans and the Predator is one of the soldiers stepping straight into one of the Predator's booby traps. The wire wraps around the soldier's ankle, hoisting him up into the trees. Within moments, the other soldiers find him hanging upside down, covered in blood.

Not only is this a fun nod to the way that Predators have always displayed their kills proudly, either by hanging the body in the trees or ripping the skull and spine out as a trophy (or both). But it also teases that maybe the Yautja have learned a bit more from their fallen comrade's encounter with a certain muscular Austrian than previously thought.

In the climax of the original Predator film, Arnold Schwarzenegger's Dutch is only able to defeat the final Yautja through the use of booby traps and cunning. He rigs an entire section of the forest with traps to distract and disorient the Predator and ultimately is able to defeat it. Audiences have seen Predators use traps before, but never quite like this. Perhaps this generation of Yautja has learned from the mistakes of their elders and those who have defeated them.
