The Predator

Continuity mistake: What top Dr. Casey Brackett is wearing (or not) in the decontamination chamber changes. Initially, she removes an off-white short-sleeved T-shirt-like top before putting on the protective gown. When she returns to the chamber, an automated voice says to "remove outer garment", which she does - but she is now wearing a sleeveless off-white top that was not under the gown. When she ducks down to hide from the Predator, she does not have ANY top on. (There may two+ different short-sleeved tops). (00:22:33 - 00:31:28)

Continuity mistake: After the small predator kills everyone in the back of the truck he grabs a left arm that becomes a right arm. (00:37:25)

Upvote valid corrections to help move entries into the corrections section.

Suggested correction: I agree this APPEARS to be correct, but I think it is questionable - it COULD be the left arm. The covered thumbs-up arm the Predator extended to the driver had its fingers curled toward the palm, not straight out like they were. There was a zigzag pattern on the glove's wrist, but this could be the opposite (outer) side if it also had the pattern, not the inner side. The thumb looked broken - giving the image that it might have been the right thumb, but actually the left. You MIGHT be right.

KeyZOid

The mistake is valid, no correction needed. It's a right hand that extends through the opening and a left arm seen on the floor. A key factor is the knuckles location, so it doesn't matter if the thumb looked broken.

Bishop73

I watched several times and still believe it could be the left hand. The way the fingers are folded (curled) toward the palm, they look like left knuckles.

KeyZOid

If the hand was a left hand, then you wouldn't see the knuckles.

Bishop73

No matter which way fingers are folded under toward the palm, there will be knuckles showing on either side. (Make a fist and see for yourself!) No further replies from me here.

KeyZOid

Then you misunderstand what I mean by knuckles. I'm talking about the metacarpophalangeal joint, not the interphalangeal joint.

Bishop73

No, I didn't... and knuckles are knuckles! [Now, no additional replies from me here.].

KeyZOid

Continuity mistake: The little boy, Rory, gets to a baseball field after his mask blows a hole in some guy's chest. On the field the bulldog comes up to him and then the Predator dog shows up. Rory is standing there and has the Predator's gauntlet on his left arm, but in the shot where he and the bulldog look up at the other Predator dog, suddenly the gauntlet is on his right arm and his left arm is up and empty, only for it to jump back to his left arm for the rest of the scene. (00:51:26)

Quantom X

Continuity mistake: After the small predator wakes up at the lab he holds a woman as a shield using his right arm then the left then the right again.

Continuity mistake: When Casey tries to leave Quinn and the others at the motel he throws her her bag but a second earlier it was already on the bed.

oswal13

Continuity mistake: After Mckenna holds the small sphere in his hand, a bag appears beside him that was not there before.

Continuity mistake: After Treager leaves the chopper at night, he is holding the box of gum in his right hand and the candy in his left but in the next shot he has the gum in his right.

oswal13

Continuity mistake: After the predator crashes, McKenna jumps and falls with his machine gun on his left, then it disappears, then is on his right.

oswal13

Plot hole: As the evolved Predator's ship takes off it leaves Casey Bracket alone in hilly forest terrain. The ship then flies a long distance before crashing and the Predator and McKenna start fighting, just for Bracket to show up and help out of nowhere. Impossible for her to cover that distance that fast in hilly forest terrain.

Question: Spoiler: It's revealed that the first smaller predator was coming to bring a weapon to the humans to fight back against the bigger Predators. If this was the case, then why was it killing people when it first crash landed? It came across a completely different situation going on with soldiers taking out other humans, and it starts killing them, giving Quinn a chance to fight back and steal it's stuff. But why was it killing people to start with if it was bringing us a weapon to help?

Answer: The Predator had landed in the middle of a group of hostile Earth soldiers, who it judged would likely have just shot it immediately. It would have defended itself. And there's also the fact that it could just be for fun because, hey, old habits die hard.
