So let me get this straight. The Predator race which hunts the Xenomorph as a rite of passage, and easily took down Arnold's whole squad of bodybuilding machinegun wielding bad boys, is apparently outmatched by a native american woman in The Year of Our Lord 1700?
 Nothing Ever Happens Shirt $21.68 |
 Ape Out Shirt $21.68 |
Nothing Ever Happens Shirt $21.68 |
Well, the native American woman in question is cheating like a motherfricker, abusing Predator's code of honor left and right.
just like a b***h
shes a qt so im gonna let it slide. i liked the movie.
1>2>Predators=predators
Do we get to see her breasts and/or ass at any point?
Yeah at one point she makes eye contact the camera, says my full name, and shows her pussy
I didn't ask if she shows her pussy you fricking homosexual
No. It’s current year. You do get to see the predator’s dick, though.
That's a shame
>Predator's code of honor
>code of honor
>here let me stealth invisible while I use my thermovision to snipe you with lasers
>My code of honor prevents me from hunting unarmed women, because they are no threat.
>What do you mean that woman deliberately disarmed herself and then sucker-punched me?
>what's that? you somehow outskilled me anyway? I guess I'll ragequit and nuke your ass in the meanwhile lmao
He was sniping multiple people with guns in the first movie.
Not the same as engaging a single unarmed opponent.
Does he get her, bros?
you're pozzed little movie isn't even worth the new thread shills
no ones gonna download it let alone watch it
Midthunder a cute!
Wait, do I have to watch this now? Is she in loin cloths and shit in the movie?
>Is she in loin cloths
You wish. It is frustrating though. Every male Commanche is running around barechested and shit, but the main lady doesn't even have the decency to expose her legs or a tummy.
Of course, can't have that in current year.
Predator > Predator 2 > Predators > Prey > The Predator
Predator is the only one that matters. If you wasted your time watching any of the others you should go get bottom surgery, because you're a homosexual.
Trannies are getting desperate huh? I'll never join you
the credit's cartoon was the best part of the movie
Did it imply a predator ship came down and killed them all or am imagining things? Also, was the gun the same one from P2?
The other predators came for the fallen predator's body and the chief gave them the pistol
Don't care, was really enjoyable once all the intro "I wanna be a hunter not a gatherer" stuff stopped and the killing started
And in the end even that isn't that bad, because for all her boasting, she really sucks at being a hunter and the whole tribe needs to tardwrangle her so that she doesn't get herself killed. And in the end she only becomes a great hunter, because everybody else is fricking dead.
It was an overdose of cuteness. Also cheers for the frog that tried to kill with a knife. That was the "a good death is it own reward" moment.
Why was the Predator ship on fire and looked like it was crashing in the beginning of the movie?
It was probably headed for a different destination but malfunctioned and landed on Earth.
I don't like this actress at all. She has the 1000 wieners stare at every moment and acts so jaded.
She looks like an American Dad character.
>Daaaad, I want to be a hunter
>What do you mean Meg-runs-with-dogs
Predator roger walks in
>Are you still trying to be a hunter? Embarassing, you can't even shoot a bow
Lol true
Everyone else casted looks actually native enough, but they had to find the most european-mutted looking one for the star
Also it would've been much better if they stuck to native language with subtitles, you can get away with kinda meek delivery that way
>Also it would've been much better if they stuck to native language with subtitles
There is (or will be, not sure) a version in native american. It was confirmed a while back.
It's a dub they made to release in reservation theaters as a pr stunt, not the same as actually shooting in the language
There isn't really that big of a difference. End result is the same.
Yeah there is, dubs not matching chatacters' lips always looks like shit
It's something that I can move over instantly to be fair.
that really isn't up to the language, it's up to the quality of the ADR department. star wars cost millions of dollars and everyone said the lines they were supposed to say yet it has some of the worst ADR i've ever seen in a movie, even up to and including the phantom menace
i think george might be legit autistic
Sounds like something that boomers seethe over and it's actually not an issue at all.
i'm very keen to bad ADR
for example in the sopranos you'll constantly see shots of characters far-off that aren't actually saying anything even when the show plays audio for their dialogue. there's also really obvious parts where lines are added over the original voicework that sound out of place
it's not enough to ruin a show or a movie for me, but it's definitely a serious flaw
>star wars cost millions of dollars and everyone said the lines they were supposed to say yet it has some of the worst ADR i've ever seen in a movie, even up to and including the phantom menace
>i think george might be legit autistic
I genuinely laughed when that story came out about AOTC having to be 100% ADR'd because the filmed audio was totally fricked
Bravo George
I watched it, I think it works way better. It's a separate release on Hulu(if anyone is bothering to watch it that way).
>DAT TUM MUHFUGEN BIX NOOD
No wonder he was so moronic.
Romans speaking accurate latin made the shitty greenscreen scenes feel 10/10 in Barbarians. You do have a point.
?t=16
No shit they had to find one with white features for the lead role. Why do you think Halle Berry had a career? Normies like things watered down.
Why do I feel like she's ready to spit on my face?
The brother should have been the main character.
There, i said it, and you homosexual shills can't deny this truth.
hewas
Probably. Some moments were definitely far fetched, even with the men.
Better than Shane Black's debacle but also not the redemption movie people were expecting.
>SCORPION WINS
Would you still be able to throw a axe accurately with a fricking rope creating drag on it?
Basically a slingshot?
Yes.
He means the rope thats tied to the handle. If a rope was tied to it would it still be accurate when thrown.
Well, it would be less like a regular throwing axe and more like one of those chinese rope darts.
This feels so strange, like a mix of seeing RTS npc city life zoomed in and Spore stage where aliens visit.
It's fricked up, not very realistic.
it's really bad
Nah it was fun
Nah you're a shill
Those bows look like they had incredibly weak draw weight
Wtf is this design? Did he smoked crack?
I know you used a spoiler but my addon previewer loaded it while I moved my mouse over it. Now a good part of the movie is ruined lol.
not really it's not something you see at the end, the predator is shown early on
also why the frick are you in this thread if you don't want to get spoiled you dumb bastard
Your unintelligent anger only serves to signal homosexuality.
To that I can only answer: ywnbaw.
>unintelligent
>gets accidentally spoiled by his own extension and comes into a thread for a movie he hasn't seen and whines about being spoiled
you're the moron here chum
He smoked that snakeskin at the beginning. That’s why his tooth basically falls out when she yanks it.
Bet'cha anything they made it look less like 'dreds because they thought it might offend some people.
and yet it looks like a black version of the predator
i don't think they were taking any of it into account, just wanted to make a new design
>it looks like a black version of the predator
This. Fricking hell, it literally looks like the black version of its own species.
It was a more tribalistic low tech predator in general and in my headcanon it was a "minority" on the yautja home world. But it fit with the context of the movie and I liked him.
True, its tech was definitely less advanced than previous showings of the Predator. The fact that it also resembles the Super Preds from Predators makes it less jarring.
Goddamn, that is genuinely is one ugly motherfricker.
Looks more like the super predators from the 3rd movie.
Looks like it has periods with its face monthly.
The homietor
I honestly kind of like it. Not watching this trash though.
He looks good with the helmet on tho, it's a nice monster design.
why are you assuming it passed its rite of passage? and why are you assuming that all of them are equally intelligent?
to me, the fact that this guy didn't have a full face mask on symbolized that he wasn't at the same elite level as the one arnie faced up against, so probably a moronic zoomer predator that was fighting against a moronic zoomer indian
the only thing that bothered me is that she got to use that trick against him when he couldn't see her. it was stupid, because he already noticed once that he didn't see a guy who was alive, so there was NO reason for him to fall for the same trick twice
but anyway, i liked it. nice landscapes, pretty shitskin girl, a lot of action with minimal drama. this would've been standard 30-40 years ago but now getting a movie that isn't some 2h+ bloated piece of shit feels like the second coming
2 things bothered me. The fact that the predator's cloaking device didn't short circuit in the water (as is in the other films) and the overall proficiency of the indians. I mean, the choreography was nice, as were the kills, but the girl's brother in particular was on some Batman shit.
The homing dart tech was clever. Girl was a mary sue but not as bad as other examples over the years.
i don't really think she counts as a mary sue, she failed again and again throughout the entire movie and ultimately killed him because of a combination of the predator being worn down and also being a bit of a tard
it would've been better if she lost an arm or leg or something, because she did not earn a full victory
>it would've been better if she lost an arm or leg or something, because she did not earn a full victory
That would've been nice, I was thinking the same thing actually. It almost gets away with it for me but something was missing.
The fact that her bro survived is good at least, and I liked the implication that the preds went down there after the battle.
>her bro survived
what... he's dead, anon, unless there's some after credits scene i missed? or did you mean to say the dog?
Meant to say dog yeah, kind of running on empty atm.
Her brother died an honorable death, although it would've been nice if he escaped to the village at least.
>because she did not earn a full victory
She really didn't. The tribe and the Frenxh have essintally done 90% of the work for her, she just finished the job.
The ending really soured it for me. She should've been really somber, maybe a moment of rest and reflection after barely winning and then have the ships arrive.
Instead she prances into the village like nobody died, all smug and gets dubbed new War Chief. GL leading with most of the young men being dead.
>all smug and gets dubbed new War Chief
She gets dubbed War Chief because everybody else is dead. She's failing upwards.
Cope
Also she's fricking dead since the gun she gives to her father/chief in the end is the same the predator gives to Danny Glover at the end of Predator 2. So after that end they killed everyone in the village, but since they kept her gun as a trophy it meant she was a good hunt.
KINO!
The downside to this is that the comic book story about this gun is now non-canon, which is a shame. But I guess the fact that the rest of the preds came down to Earth kind of balances everything out. If one predator caused so much trouble for however many people, a small battalion would wreck their shit for sure.
I agree, but we have to remember that it's current year also. I'm always expecting the worst now.
wow i haven't seen predator 2 in ages so i didn't catch that, but it's pretty cool they tied them in together
this only strengthens my belief that this was a dumb zoomer predator like AJ from the sopranos and that the injuns got yeeted when daddy came looking for him
No they're not dead, its just that the next time a predator came around they sent their best, a woman with that gun, but it wasn't enough so the predator killed her and took the gun.
They should make an Alien movie with all of them having their chest explode with xenomorphs just to make you seethe.
Yes but only the strong men because they underestimate the aliens and then all the women need to band together and take revenge because all the men got killed and unlike the men women are going to use their brains and smarts to defeat the aliens instead of brute force while being wienery.
>why are you assuming it passed its rite of passage?
I assume he didn't. He was coming off as some newblood fricking about.
irl their women were great fighters, killed many a white man. im sure you all knew that because you know history lulz
>Grace absoluted hated the movie, calling it mediocre at best.
What did she mean by this?
Whomst?
I'm not clicking that btw.
Grace Randolph. She has a weird hateboner for this movie.
Is she /ourgirl/?
She never was. She outed herself as a crazy b***h picking fights with directors about what's in their own movies.
never was
I don't know who that is anon. Why did you bring that person up? Are you in an e-celeb cult?
shes a feminist reviewer who hates a supossedly feminist movie you absolute pajeet jackass
Ironically, because she really hates the main lead, because she thinks she was an oportunistic c**t.
Sorry I'm not an insecure moronic that worships e-celebs.
I'm sensing that you're coping about your skintone.
seethe gays
have a nice day, Black person homosexual
Ack yourself, you e-celeb worshipping Black person
I also thought it was mediocre but this almost makes me want to like it more. Frick this b***h.
>this movie is slow-paced
>but wandavision, that's a masterpiece
Frick you, Grace, you stinky comicbookshill b***h.
man look at this fricking shit
how can this sparse baby forest compare to the dense jungle?
post some webms of injuns getting murdered pl0x
Dunno why native girls aren't more desired. They're like asians but they're dirt poor and would love a knigth in shining armor to come save them from their shitty reserve.
~~*You*~~
The only native woman I know of in my area is a fat crazy stripper with 8 kids from 5 different fathers who's been in jail multiple times.
yes, yes, yes, you don't get them after they're broken. You get them young and pretty before they ruin themselves.
90% of native girls are balloons, not worth chasing after 10% of an already tiny population
Sad stuff
Actual Native AMerican here (Lumbee Indian). They're almost always fat once they reach their mid teens. We really weren't meant to have s sedentary lifestyle. Not to mention that they stink and are usually trashy as shit.
I'm lucky I'm sort of good-looking and not too dark so I can frick 6/10 white and Mexican girls on the reg.
>lumbee Indian
Shut the frick up you larping Black person. There’s a reason lumbees aren’t recognized by all other tribes.
Anon, they ARE Asians. Asians from Siberia.
asian is an incredibly broad term
when people say asian they think of south and est asians, not indians, and certainly not these ainu-tier weird-looking motherfrickers from the americas
I want a Pocahotnas gf to frick
Predator vs Zulu's when?
I like how the movie forgot she got her foot ensnared in a trap.
The 9 trillion wieners stare.
Someone should teach them they could shoot better if they turn their draw hand over the right way
Movie has gotten me into a mood.
Is it out yet?
yes
>Garbage gets straight to streaming service
It's a Disney production, that's why it's about stronk wemen of indigenous origin.
She was great in Legion, but the whole show was amazing.
Just finished the movie, it was fun and far better than The Predator. So now it is
Predator>Predator 2>Predators>Prey>abyss>Twlight
Idk how the frick you can think predators was better than this
Trash movie
The shits I took today are better than The Predator.
That title card was bad.
Kek. It's like a Press Start screen for a video game.
>20th century studios
KEK, they don't want you to know it's Disney now
20th century fox movies are still being made by the same team of people. They're just owned by disney now.
>They're just owned by disney now.
Just like Lucasfilm, and it changes EVERYTHING. Do you think they would have made a Predator movie about a Mary Sue Injun native if it wasn't Disney?
How woke is the movie?
Basically boils down to whether you consider the concept of a female warrior bearable or not.
It's not the worst example of such that I've seen, but also not the best.
Definitely better than the last movie. Frick that piece of shit to hell.
Females are only worthy of being mothers or prostitutes.
>Definitely better than the last movie
That's not saying much. It's like saying "at least I woke up this morning and I am not dead".
kek im surprised people still ask this at this point
she's incompetent and has thoughts above or apart from her station, that good enough?
>has thoughts above or apart from her station
What?
isn't that a common woke trope? or maybe I'm saying it wrong. she's being OPPRESSED.
did they just assumed their gender?
>did they just assumed their profession?
fixed
I wonder if these overtly sexist men are going to get egg on their face at some point during the movie
I figured it out. They tried to go back with the first movie cartoon take but moved in the direction of a Disney princess thing.
I thought the same thing kek. It's Pocahontas (but Mulan) meets the Predator.
In that context, it's alright. Might've been better as a video game honestly.
Yeah her and the lion on the tree branch was really dumb and felt like a Disney princess scene but with violence
straight to streaming
Why did they have to show the stupid Predator ship and the cloaked Predator within 15 minutes of the movie starting? Really drags the viewer out of the suspense. Why show the fricking spaceship at all wtf
You do realize that Predator 1 showed a spaceship in the first second of the movie?
Also, we already know who the mysterious alien is, so why keep the audience in supense?
is this why everyone hates wolf cause you saw too much of him in the movie?
yeah, who could've known this was a predator movie out of the 10 people that give enough of a frick about this 90s franchise to watch it
are you stupid? i'm glad it wasn't some homosexual like you that made this, the movie might not be 10/10, but at least it had the actual predator in it and wasn't some gay natives vs whites shit until the 1h30m mark
Are you seething because you're a mentally moronic troll and it's part of your unintelligent act or you're genuinely moronic?
the only one i see seething is you
your idea is bad and your criticism is stupid
Ashy forest slaughter of STINKING FROGS made this a solid 6/10 for me
100lb femoid solo-ing Predator in essentially open combat was moronic, but it is what it is.
She should've looked like
I mean she was smol but so was everyone else. Those guy could eat some bison.
A man her wize has greater bone density and tighter muscle fibre combinations, i.e. stronger
Here we go lol
I know the canoncity or whatever of books is questionable, but Google Alien: Phalanx, and it's mini-sequel in AvP: Ultimate Prey.
Medieval humans vs Aliens, and then survivors from that book + a newblood Predator, against an Alien queen.
Scott Sigler
people are still writing alien and predator stuff? i'm guessing this is for like 40+ aged black and white nerds exclusively
The alien series alone has had 5 officially licensed novels in the last two years
tell me more, which of these alien/predator novels are actually worth reading and where should one start
Alien(s)
>Cold Forge
>into Charybdis
>Phalanx
>The Omnibus of Earth Hive, Female War, and Nightmare Asylum
Though in that last one they change change Newt and Hicks to Billie and Wilkes to bring it in line with Alien. The Omnibus is an adaptation of comics that were released prior to Alien 3
Predator:
I've only read AvP: Ultimate Prey, and Sigler's story is the only one worth reading. It's very, VERY pozzed, otherwise; with a few exceptions among the collection. Was published this year
thanks anon i'm going to check them out
No problem. I'm a bit autistic about this franchise
that's very wholesome, anon, it makes me happy to see there are still actual nerds around
what did you think about this movie?
Better than the last one. About as good as Adrian Brody's. The kills elevated it, otherwise it would've been forgettable. She should've lost a limb or something
Its definitely better than Eric Foreman vs predator
His, "hehe, we're alike!" spiel and then getting murdered was a nice touch. Reminded me of that kid in school who thought he was Sasuke or Gaara
i doubt we'll ever see as big a profile name as adrien brody associated with these franchises
but in a way that's good, i hope they keep making these lower-budget movies for actual fans of the franchise, i'd love to see a predator vs roman legion/vikings movie at some point, or one in the desert against some elite caliphate warriors, that'd be super nice
>i'd love to see a predator vs roman legion/vikings movie at some point, or one in the desert against some elite caliphate warriors, that'd be super nice
Yeah, but in the end of the day it's more of the same with a different reskin. It's all underdog guys with swords and bows vs a yautja.
I would like to see the Predator showing up during WW2. That would be interesting. And it would be like a spa vacation for him.
That makes you evolved.
the alien franchise isn't my cup of tea but based nerd nonetheless
Scott Sigler is a known name at my workplace, because we have a lot of free time to listen to audio and his books eat up a lot of the time.
We call him a wankoff. I hate that dude.
Guessing you've read Infected? I thought that was pretty shit but I enjoyed Phalanx
Infected is where Sigler's 'arc' as a person becomes clear. His entire family are football players except him and his dad re-married a Latina woman who allegedly abused him as a kid, and every single story features football and a latina bawd in some capacity. Lo and behold, Infected's mandatory former football star main hero cuts his wiener and balls off, and the latina MILF scientist is desperately undersexed and fricks her nerdy assistant at the end, with her 'partner' being a gay man. It's interesting from that department.
As a book series it fricking blows though.
We're farm laborers, the work itself blows. We're not a crew of Mexicans, we're no-shit the best in the world at what we do, which means we have to work super hard. I love the people I work with, but it's soulcrushing as well.

Wait WHAT? You mean the writer had a frickup life and now inserts his bullshit on his alien/predator books?

sounds like the type of crew and work that should get you a documentary
Damn dude I only read it cause it he shilled in on reddit in a thread about sci-fi books with body horror. Didn't look into his other work until I came across his contributions to Alien.
Do you like Peter Watts?
>Do you like Peter Watts?
Not that anon but I do. Did he wrote something with predator/alien?
Blindsight is a sci-fi/horror story that features alien lifeforms. I think that's about as close as it gets.
blindsight is kino
i love watts
>listening to books and working together
frick, that sounds comfy...
Indeed, still those guy were fricking skin and bones. And those bows, ffs.
There were no women that looked like this back then. Also, any woman who takes roids is sus.
Bison is like 30g of protein a pound .
Plus she was just small, like an actress; not lean and fit like someone trying to be a hunter
Wow what a powerful message at the end. She inspired a younger generation of girls to become capable women warriors. It's not just men who can be warriors, it can be women too! POWERFUL
As long as there are people like you, this message needs to be in the movies, books, comics, video games.
All dead tho.
I liked at the end where she looks at old Preddie and says “frick off space Black person, we’re full”. Really brought it all home.
hilariously awful CGI, holy frick
Mostly just the bear
I miss when movies hired a real old fat bear and just shook the camera a lot to make it look hectic
So are predators canonically allowed to choose a difficulty setting for their rite of passage?
normal: heavily armed marine strike team
hard: xenomorph infested colony
story mode: native american with bow and arrow
They try to make the fight as fair as possible in most circumstances (hence why they don't use projectiles against animals), but there's a lot of suspension of disbelief involved still.
A fully decked out Predator could feasibly take on pretty much any group of people unless they have high explosive weaponry.
The one in this film was very stripped down, relying on literally 3 "darts" and his melee weapons.
>literally 3 "darts"
laser guided my Black, plus
>Cloak giving him full advantage
>Thermal/misc visions, full advantage
>Smart Explosives
>Smart nets
All of which are inferior to more sophisticated weapons like a plasma caster or smart disc. But I agree, it had enough equipment to deal with 1700s humans. It just got bested in the end through a good strategy.
I also don't think it was expecting the frenchmen to intervene.
I have a feeling this yautja wasn't even on his rite of passage. It looked as if some random zoomer newblood was joyriding in his lit spaceship, crashed on this random unknown planet and decided "frick it, might as well hunt a bit to kill the boredom until my dad comes along to pick me up".
The rite of passage involves killing a Xenomorph and returning with its skull.
Do predators have morals? What are they? What do predators value?
They all collective agree to go easy on stronk, non-white human women, but NOT because they think they're weaker or less capable and or anything.
The movie spells it out that the reason she wasn't killed was because the Predator didn't consider her a threat. When it does, it's already kind of late.
So the message is essentially the same, but it does make logical sense. She was also masking her visibility with the herb.
>What do predators value?
Other Predators, be they human or something else.
Hunter values. Go after the strong, let the woman/young/pregnant alive so they can have more game in the next hunt, let the weak go since they are hunting for the strong. It's a pretty simple "code" they use in all movies. Also some honor, they always let the prey go if the prey save their lives. One for one.
This. It's a fairly straightforward hunter code of sorts. Fans do tend to exaggerate it to weird levels for whatever reason though, like they're some sort of noble samurai.
I thought watching movies were our thing. Stop asking questions and go rewatch movies.
They only hunt prey that can defend itself but choose to hunt it in a way where it basically has no chance of defending itself which is pretty funny if you think about it.
Well this predator gave more chances for his prey and end up all fricked. Better to hunt from afar instead of trying to take everything one-on-one, also don't know why use cloaking against enemies if you are going to fight them in glorious melee.
It's like zoomers using Pre-workout at the gym just to loiter around the bench and lift the bar every ten minutes
The moment it decided to fight the bear hand to hand I knew it was an ooga booga predator.
Should've conserved it's energy. Nice kill though.
AVP is the most nihilistic universe there is in sci-fi anon.
She had to use an axe for 6 seconds to uproot a tiny flower.

Wait... this means I'm watching a Disney movie... wtf I was tricked.
you couldn't tell you were watching Pocahontas vs Predator without it?
Not until I got 5 minutes in it and I went to google.
Call me a basedconsoomer but every use of the shield got me HYPE AF
The tech, kills and overall proficiency of the predator were handled well.
Same with the injuns. The ending was a bit of a stretch but they unironically took a pocahantas approach with the movie.
I liked it but am really fixated on how much like a vidya it was. Horizon Zero Dawn girl levels up her main weapon, collects magic herb for combat potions, has maxed alchemy, takes Witcher trophy, and has a hunter pet.
Also trying to triangulate the power levels of Predators is pointless. They are either gimping themselves for the challenge or the director just wanted a story with less technology, either way it'll always vary movie to movie.
Aloy vs Nu-Lara by the end of Shadow, in a forest. Who wins?
The Predator hopping around the trees was straight out of the Hunting Grounds game lmao.
They weren't really subtle with it. In spite of everything, I still found myself rooting for him even though it was a bit too honorable with it's methods. It's like it didn't even care it was being injured until the third act of the movie.
>how much like a vidya it was
I've been noticing this shit too, in Multiverse of Madness the last universe was literally a Bloodborne Old Hunters boss arena, and The Northman had that zelda dungeon moonlight puzzle to unlock the master sword. Very derivative stuff.
>They are either gimping themselves for the challenge or the director just wanted a story with less technology, either way it'll always vary movie to movie.
Well, not all Predators are equal. The ones in Predator 1 and 2 were fully decked out pros, because they were deliberately hunting the biggest human they can find. The ones in AvP were newbies who hunt down aliens to prove themselves. This one in Prey is just some rando, who crashlanded on an uncharted planet, I don't think he was even there for the hunt specifically.
Isn't this the franchise where autism is a superpower? Was she autistic?
We don't talk about that.
I think both the predator and the girl were autistic. Everyone else in the movie was normal.
STRONG MINORITY WOMAN DEFEATS A PREDATOR AND KILLS WHITE MEN
French men*
I'm glad they made the secondary villains dirty frog trappers instead of honorable english frontiersmen
this, i always root for frogs to get brutally murdered no matter what, they and russians exist to be villains
it's implied in the end that the predators come down to earth so I doubt the "victory" was long lived
i do hope the next alien movie has a male lead to balance things out though
I'm surprised she didn't team up with the predator to kill the evil white man.
also i have a dumb question for the americans on here, but what are those "lions" the tribe is hunting at the start, and do the great plains still have those big cats or did the injuns and whiteoids wipe them out
Mountain lions.
and they're still around? i guess they stay away from urban areas
Yeap, someone on /gif/ posted a guy shooting one innawoods a couple of years ago. Heard they are very dangerous.
mountain lions are still around. You hear a story about a mountain lion killing a jogger or hiker once a year.
Mountain lions are very much out here still. They stick around neighborhoods bordering the forest or desert and 50% of their diet is people's pets
I mean it was strange to call them lions, but even mountain lions would still be strange. Since they decided to make english I can understand, but then there was one word or two in native language every 3 sentences, that was weird. Also some things like the girl's attitude and some gestures, like the finger to the lips with a "shhh" felt out of place. Like they were too modern for my taste, but it's ok it's a movie not a doc.
mountain lions are still around, even in New England there is the occasional sighting although a lot of time they are misidentified lynx. There aren't very many left around. I think some hiker out west almost got fricked up by one a few years ago and killed it with a knife but got seriously injured. If I recall they like to hide on the top of a cliff overlooking your hiking trail and pounce on you, but I'm pretty sure they could still run fast and just frick you up either way.
there was a guy on joe rogan's podcast once that told a story about how he killed a bear that attacked him with a knife or something like that
strange things are possible
Are you referring to Dan Pena by chance? Because he's probably the most ridiculous human being I've listened to. He's also got what is more or less a metal skeleton at this point. Entertaining guy though.
i can't really remember, this was ages ago, just recall there was a story of someone killing a bear with only a knife
I just had a flashback to that powertrip homosexual that shot a mountain lion with a glock because it wouldn't back off.
>just let a wild animal kill you, bro
Here's a video of one of them stalking a Hiker, had this guy turned his back on it he'd probably be dead
i find cats so fricking scary
way scarier than bears, crocs, sharks, whatever
even domesticated cats are savage and violent little frickers when mad
Yea but they meow moew and meow meow meow.
They're good predators. Probably the best on four legs. The only thing that makes or breaks a cat is it's size. A regular household cat isn't very dangerous, but when it's a Lion it becomes a different story.
Can we talk about the cool weapons? That knife-centipede thing that chops limbs was nice, the new darts instead of lasers was a cool surprise. Also that collapsible mace/spear was rad, sad he didn't used the mace side more to smash some faces. The shield being used as a weapon was really nice, although a bit op since that thing could chop not only trees but even stone.
I liked the centipede knife. Would come in handy innawoods.
he had cool gear. one thing i didn't get though, did that spear retract when she tried to use it against him because it detected he was a predator? if so, then why did the mask shoot him?
It might've had some palm print detector. We'll probably never know.
it's a bluetooth spear with alexa integration, he said 'spear off'
I think she pressed the wrong button on the spear, we never see how it's activated. The mask seems to turn on automatically when the Predator engage the weapon so it makes sense.
that makes sense
kek alexa refresh invisibility cloak
>the new darts instead of lasers was a cool surprise
The had to nerf the Plasma Caster so dumb BlackYautja could kill himself.
this dumb ass pred stepped into line of sight of hunters with arrows on him and walked straight into a bear trap
One big thing I liked is that they didn't use the wrist-nuke plot device. That's in every Predator depiction, blowing themselves up to hide evidence and because they're sore losers. This time one was properly killed, and it makes sense because the story and body can just be dismissed as Native American legend from hundreds of years ago.
>One big thing I liked is that they didn't use the wrist-nuke plot device
Maybe it was still in beta test. I guess it makes sense that the Predator from 200 years ago won't have the access to all of his stuff, because some of it wasn't invented yet.
what are you talking about he was tricked into shooting himself in the head as dumb as it was, he couldn't blow himself up he was dead, fricking morons on here
Of course, but he's talking about from a filmmaking perspective. They didn't fall back on the easy ending of "character runs away from a big predator explosion" that everyone else has used.
The predator spescies must be wiped out by now if they cant even kill a teenage girl
that was a teenage predator. it actually makes the most sense to imagine that he was as impulsive and stupid as she was and that they were both out to "prove" themselves
it was pure luck that she won out in the end
>predator shoots the guy in the front of a line of indians alerted to his position after driving possums their way
>the indians watch and hear the predator
>the predator walks up invis to the indian's corpse and starts retrieving his arrows
>one of the indians in the line gets a shot off on the predator
>predator does a roar and uncloaks
This dude's a big moron. Worst one we've seen yet.
The rest of the movie so far is a comedy of the woman fricking up and making life hard for everyone else / getting them killed.
When will we get a movie about a transgender predator?
The Predator (2018)
It's the actual plot that they're taking human DNA to transform themselves
I still don't know what was Shane Black smoking when directing this movie.
Not to say Black is blameless but I feel like I remember like things went seriously wrong behind the scenes and it was basically taken out of his control completely and just hacked to pieces. An entire third of the movie is reshoots.
movie was cool but they made comanches out to be the usual pussy noble savage nature respecter, and her entire plan to kill the predator relied on it not knowing how its own tech worked
>comanches out to be the usual pussy
what?
what are you confused by
didnt a group of teens try to take it on?
the start of the predator rampage
crying over dead buffalos when indians did the same shit, being "out savaged" by fur traders. being a small camp of hunters instead of the war tribe comanches actually were. sterile depiction
yeah and twice the predator forgot that his arrows use the laser to track
>her entire plan to kill the predator relied on it not knowing how its own tech worked
what, it was shown how she learnt about the tracking arrows, the predator fricked up and wanted to kill asap and fell for it. it makes sense if youre injured and want to ende it
The future is female! A good man is a man that worships women and does everything women say, a complete opposite to someone like Andrew Tate. Welcome to the future. Women are gods! None of you even deserve to look at a woman anymore. Your life has absolutely ZERO value compared to the value of a woman. You need to be a slave to women. That is what makes a good man.
Andrew Tate is what would happen if a woman transitioned into a man and tried being "alpha"
lmao this actress is terrible holy shit
yeah and she's cute too which makes it even harder to suspend disbelief when she's holding a spear like it's a broom she intends to squash a spider with
I love how at the end it's clearly lost on her that in order for her to have her le stronk woman character arc, all the hunters in her tribe including her own brother had to die, and instead she's just like "yeahhhhhh everyone thinks I'm cool now"
It's like that troony that won and broke all records in the female sport but was below average as a man. Anyone can be the best when no else is in the field.
/ourcrew/ enjoyed it, it seems
I just hope we will eventually get a good AVP movie at some point. AVP2 vidya figured out how to make it work, why can't Hollywood?
I wonder what her pussy smell like
The CGI animals looked like shit, but I enjoyed the movie overall. I'd rather see a guy in a bear suit or a big puppet than the shitty CGI.
You'd think the digital complexities of CGI would cost more than some good practicing work/camera switching off shots of a live bear.
Or are Pajeet animators just super cheap?
This is the equivalent of a direct to DVD movie from back in the day. With that in mind, the effects were about as good as they could realistically be.
yeah for a hulu movie i thought it looked fantastic
the effects aren't much worse than dr stranger's and that was a theatrical release
Hulu is merely the distributor, they haven't produced it.
still, point is that a lot of big movies have awful cgi nowadays
The cgi is good.
It lacks film noise so you think it's bad but compare it with other noiseless CGI from top tier movies productions, such as avatar and it's around there.
I don't think film noise magically makes 3D effects better but most people are so used to it that they associate it with reality, with films as such.
A puppet or bear suit would look better.
I've heard that classic prop guys are union while pajeets are not.
This shit has like 3 sets of fake eyes. C'mon now.
you don't understand op, it's a strong bipoc woman we're talking here
did the movie ever explain how the frogs knew about the existence of predator?
Presumably it had swept through them first? They seemed like they had just encountered one, hence the questioning
Your sexual fetishes from now on should be about being dominated by women because women are better than men.
Don't you even dare think about men dominating women in any way, that's bad and evil.
A woman dominating a man however, that's good.
Is this new subspecies, it doesnt need breathing apparatus/full helmet?
its a amengi
My guess is that the mask still served a similar function but in some other way.
The one in Pred 1 didn't need a breathing apparatus.
When he took off the mask there was still a depressurized air sound. It does need it, but it can survive off our air for a limited amount of time. Enough to dispose of a human.
There was about 5 minute after he took the helmet until the nuke detonated. So he can hold breath/breathe in toxic atmosphere for such short amount of time.
They changed a lot of his design and also his dreadlocks so who knows. Probably it was to look cool, and this predator had some hood attitude to him to say the least. I bet go without a respirator is the equivalent of picrel in the Predator society.
Rick and Morty level of cartoon.
>predators hunting prey
Keeno
How would you kill a predator?
I'd bring the Lord's name and the demon would vanish.
I would put an underage kid in his path and call Chris Hansen. If the Predator offers them candy, he's fricked.
That's bullshit. Predator was only on his way to the beach planet. He stopped by to tell that kid that meeting strangers from offworld is dangerous
seems like the best ways usually involve making it kill itself... lol unbelievable she gets him to literally shoot himself in the head
So why didnt it ragequit like every other preds? Isnt that like part of their code or something?
How could it? It got shot in the head.
Only reason to nuke itself was to make sure there are no Xeno parasites left around, the only from the first movie was a pussy.
And to erase all traces of it's tech on Earth. I'd say it's probably an important part of their culture to do that, but this predator didn't even get the chance.
They don't care about their own technology in the lore, they're dumb aliens they barely know how it works. They got it from an actually intelligent bug species. Their mental age is literally akin to our ancestors millions of years ago if you follow the evolutionist narrative.
The Predator in AVP:R came to Earth with the primary goal to erase evidence.
A smarter one it seems. I guess like their liberator on their main planet.
I haven't seen that movie. Will check it after I watch Alien Resurrection.
I dunno if you're pulling this lore tidbit about their technology being stolen from a book or something, but there's so many alien/predator books and comics at this point, that it's hard to know which is canon.
The Engineers used to be 2 different things before Prometheus, depending on what lore you read.
https://avp.fandom.com/wiki/Amengi
So basically the same alien that the original film would've featured, played by Van Damme. Wasn't aware of that.
That was interesting. I looked into the Prey article on that wiki and found this bit:
>During an interview with SlashFilm, director Dan Trachtenberg mentioned the film's creative team struggled with what he called the "'Hunt For Red October' thing," where the characters speak Russian before transitioning into English. He said they never quite came up with a way to make that work, so instead, the film was shot in English and Comanche. "Both languages are spoken, but when you hear English, it's as if it's Comanche," he said. "But what Jhane is speaking to is on Hulu, there will be a Comanche dub of the movie, so you can watch the entire movie in Comanche with the original actors returning to perform their roles. In an interview with Empire, Trachtenberg went on to say "There’s a lip-match (choosing words to match the actor’s mouth movements as closely as possible) that we do now. It won’t be like watching old kung fu movies.
That wiki is fantastic.
It proves to me AVP fans are brighter than the average.
And yea it's so full of relevant and creepy trivia for all movies and it sources its claims as well.
Because portable nuke was still in beta testing.
This movie was set before the Arnold one doofus
That's my point. He didn't use the salt wrist nuke, because it probably wasn't invented yet.
Oh right sorry I did a moron
He used some "cheat code" when he was surrounded (man this Pred was stupid), but I think the main thing is that in the final fight he was outsmarted before he could blow himself, also he lost one arm and couldn't activate the device. Probably the main reason to the other predators to come back, they need to clean up his mess. They never let any tech behind so the prey can't escalate the game.
Came in from work seen they made a new predator film know nothing about it decide I will watch the trailer thank frick you can tell its a pat on the back woke bullshit.
Why has this cancer spread to fricking predetor of all things just have a diverse army sqaud take on the predator in any setting of war ww1 Ww2 Iraq anywhere but a fricking woman comanche get the frick out of here with that bullshit.
>predator gets killed by a woman
>predator's body and all its tech is recovered by humans
>humans weaponize it and learn from it
>next predator comes along and gets wiped out instantly
>predators think this is cheating and invade
>they take all of the leftover tech including the gun
>from now on all predators must nuke themselves if they're about to die
It's strongly implied during the end credits that a bunch of Predators came down to Earth and confronted the injuns, so any Predator tech that might've been in their possession was taken back.
They also get the gun that was given to Danny Glover in P2.
>It's strongly implied during the end credits that a bunch of Predators came down to Earth and confronted the injuns, so any Predator tech that might've been in their possession was taken back.

Yeah I saw this too. I was about to say hey they didn't explain how it got into their collection but at the last second, bam.
>fall from tree and get knocked out while being attacked by lion
>cut to unharmed in tipi
wtf am i watching
>P1
>used proper healing kit
>P2
>melted some garbage to create healing gel
>Prey
>used first aid spray from resi evil
Theyre getting lazy
Predators don't start using the wrist nuke until after we dropped the bombs on Japan.
They use them in ancient times in AvP, but considering the Aliens shouldn't have even existed back then, it's anyone's guess what the new canon is.
No one going to post the bear fight?
Why do you all think predators are all the same? Maybe each predator has a different personality, some of them are buttholes, some of them are nice to hang out with, some of them are cold, some of them are horny, each predator could be unique. Maybe the wrist nuke predator was indeed just a sore loser. Doesn't mean all of them are.
Can we all agree that this was dumbest Yautja on screen? Never before Predator offed himself with his own weapon, basically it was suicide.
zoomer predator
All of them are dumb dude, it's a small percentage of individuals that are smart enough to even figure that abandoning tech behind on enemy worlds is moronic.
he loved black people
was meant for
frick you b***h
p1 detected arnold's traps
p1 attacked the people in the back of the group or who went off alone
he didnt run in like a moron, step on a trap and get blasted
prey pred was a massive moron
He was a rookie like the girl.
Eh, the one from P2 also wasn't the sharpest knife in a drawer. He got played by a middle-aged out-of-shape cop with a aerophobia.
At least he was killed with stolen weapon, Not unintentionally killed himself.
Maybe that species of Predator are just not as genetically intelligent as the more whiter versions, hence the obvious death and exclusion in the future?
Well, the one in Predator 2 got offed by his own smart disc that he just left lying around.
>Can we all agree that this was dumbest Yautja on screen?
It had to be dumbed down in order to lose to some little Hispanic chick.
both are rookies, the predator killed a shit ton of prey whilst the qt barely killed him after a platoon of frogs damaged him
I bet this predator was a woman. Women can be predators too!
It was definitely a man. There are female predators and now I'm thinking maybe it should've been one.
I think he was moronic. I mean look at him
Can't even brush his teeth.
Female Predators have boobies. And are cuter.
SEX with 2m tall xeno.
They live for thousands of years so that pucci stays fresh.
The Yautja have good taste.
if male yautja have mouthpussy, what about the female yautja?
The females are actually larger, stronger and faster than the males. Pred society has always been described as Matriarchal, and the Preds always shown hunting things are basically just dicks with money who cana fford ot go on hunting trips to try and bring back trophies to impress babes or bring back something better than their friends.
Muh dick...
They probably want to breed you all night long, infinite stamina.
They often break bones of the males during foreplay, and can lift and throw them.
Well that's sad.
I'm not into masochism.
I want a submissive, gentle predator waifu, in a white dress with flowers.
Theres probably softer and nicer Pred ladies out there that arent so rough. Maybe some of them even have a thing for tiny puny hoomans.
There aren't aliens out there anon, Christianity has the Truh, change your mind and embrace the gift of salvation.
God bless you!
Cringiest shit i ever read. You will die alone
1OO% Bullshit. This is not a part of confirmed canon, this is speculations and nothing else
>moron predator lets the woman walk up behind him, armed
In the other movie, arnold stops the woman from getting the gun because she would be a threat if she was armed.
Jesus christ this is shit and they didn't understand the old movies at all.
Actually he has a theory which you as a viewer get as well with the data you're feed that the predator doesn't attack women and children.
No, moron, he will still throw them against walls and kick weapons out of their hands.
This is the biggest fricking woke corporate shitpost of a movie I've ever seen
then you haven't seen any movies in a long time
Suck a big black throbbing wiener cumming in your throat you lying sack of onions shit.
Name one fricking example
AVP is the best Predator film
Looks like an arthouse movie about gay indians. Brokeback Crazyhorse Mountain.
