I find nothing wrong with predictable. Many things are predictable. I have a strong sense of presence when watching things and I don't try to solve things ahead of time; I let them unfold.
Predictable is not a concern of mine. Chaucer's audiences knew exactly the kinds of stories they were getting from him. What delighted them astoundingly was what he presented to them; it was his presentation and delivery.
No, I don't mind predictable, but I do appreciate a solid presentation.
