Predator Theme - What's the time signature?

The Predator score by Alan Silvestri is one of my favourites. One thing that's always bugged me was that I couldn't figure out the phrasing of the main theme. It felt like it was in a weird time signature when it wasn't. I found an entire thread of other people discussing the same thing: http://www.filmscoremonthly.com/board... With a bit of detective work (watching live performances videos where the conductor is visible) and also dropping the original recording in my DAW, I was able to work it out. It was actually really simple. I'd just been hearing 16th when it was triplets. Anyone else find they were hearing it this way?
