I’ll eat my hat if they show Oleg jumping out of a pool…

Wondered what happened to him.

He was eaten by a polar bear live, but he came out through the stomach…

“If it gasses, we can kill it” That’s funny!! Is that said with a thick Russian accent instead of a thick Austrian accent?

It is actually "Predator’, its a remake of the original and Adrien Brody (from the Pianist) is playing the role Arnold made famous, Major Alan “Dutch” Schaefer! Should be interesting ….

I think you have your facts mixed up: Brody is playing “Royce” and the movie is set immediately following the events of the first movie.

AICN: “Give us a quick rundown on the planned story we’re going to be getting, because PREDATORS – as you told me the first time we talked about this project, was always meant to be what ALIENS was to ALIEN. How do you and [Director Nimrod] Antal beat McTiernan and Arnold?”

Robert Rodriguez: I can’t go too much into the story right now, because we’re still writing. But it still involves a very intense group of people stranded on a Predator planet discovering unspeakable horrors (that are not always from outside their group). So like the original movie, the title does have a double meaning.

Aliens was a different take on the Alien idea, and an original movie in it’s own right, and that’s what we want to do with this.

As to how this movie will be viewed, one of the guys at Fox told me “No one is ever going to talk about AVP again after this film, I will stake my life on it.”

And he’s a really nice guy, so I don’t want to see him dead. Now that lives are at stake, it’s no longer a job it’s a mission. Failure is not an option.

I’m always saying that Apollo Creed needs to run for Governor, he’d win by precedent alone!

Oleg’s got some mini man boobs on him. This guy has definitely made the most successful transition from MMA to Movie Screen. He’s done a number of films where he’s had a pretty good size roles as a badguy.

by DAVE A on Oct 13, 2009 2:42 PM EDT reply actions

Oleg is one of the few MMA stars who actually made a good transition into movies and had success!!!
has made over 30 movies and including hits like 15 minutes with Robert Deniro. If youve never seen that moviee ya gott watch it. Bad Boys 2. We own the Night, Righteous Kill, Nationa lTreasure. His best one has to to be 15 minutes.
Acted opposite all the big boys, Al Pacino, Robert Deniro, Nicolas Cage, Will Smith, Martin Lawrence. Thats not a bad acting career wight there!!!

I’m glad it’s not a remake, the original was a classic and the graphics still kick ass to this day.

This one should be interesting though. Loved Predator.

BJ was like, "Uh…not sure wtf you are doing here but cool, the uh, legend. ???

I still love the Henzo fight. Upkick from brazilian hell.

lol, so true, and Oleg is not sure if he’s supposed to do that fist pose so he kind of half cocks it in the beginning, too funny.

Taktarov was the toughest SOB on the planet. When 260 lbs Severn had his head pinned to the mat and was dropping 260lb knees on him all day, the man never tapped or went out. Freakin unbeleivable!
