However, she's much slower than Diddy, and she can't jump as high. Dixie can literally spin her head in circles extremely fast, causing her to glide through the air disobeying the law of gravity to an extent as she ever so slowly descends down to the ground (GIRL POWER!). Realizing that you don't know what you've got until it's gone, the cartwheeling young whippersnapper, Diddy Kong, and his girlfriend, Dixie Kong, team up to rescue their missing comrade. Rool's scene in the first outing has now been kidnapped by the overgrown gator (I've heard of rescuing ''damsels in distress'' before, but what do you call rescuing a male in distress?). Donkey Kong, the overpowering ape that busted K.

Other great movies, such as Batman, had an impressive sequel or two, but movie makers just wouldn't leave the series alone and let it remain in good standing. What did it get? A boring, terrible piece of crap follow-up that doesn't even deserve the title, Predator 2. Predator was an instant action movie classic in the late 80's, and it deserved a superb sequel. The film industry has become notorious over the years for making movie sequels that hardly ever live up to the original.
