It's not possible...
it's over 9000!!!
Was he an ant?
No!
It's not what you're thinking.
Originally the look of the predator was similar to that of an ant.But what really should be, was a repitilian type monster with skin camouflage agility and superhuman strength, all without any technology.Really,a Predator without his technology,clowning.
Take a Look!
In the projection of the first look of the monster, originally who would use his uniform would be Van Damme, thanks to his skills of struggle etc.
But, for Van Damme the uniform look of the monster was very uncomfortable, and limited his movements, being that the Predator was originally and contemporaneously, he has great abilities as a great agility and flexible for his hunting and hobbies.
And Jean-Claude Van Damme thinking that he would demonstrate his martial arts, nor had he seen the appearance of the monster and ...
POW!!!
WHAT?
Is that what I'm going to have to use in the movie?
That was what Van Damme thought.
He thought he was in a superhero costume
And that made a bad impression on Jean.
Being that it was only the uniform for the special effects of his invisible camouflage. Because they were in the middle of a forest in Mexico and the only opposite thing of the green of all the jungle would be red.
And all the cons of Van Damme made them immediately change the look of the predator '' ant '' to what we know of today's times.
More advantageous, more frightening.
AND...
Much better even.
Imagine if the predator was like that.
I do not know what the franchise and image would look like.
