29:56 That four armed predator and the whole predators movie is severely underrated

[@jameshayward7539]

The 4 armed predator comic is no longer canon due to the owlf release tapes in 2021 with isabelle returning to earth in hunting grounds. Im pleased about this as i thought the 4 armed predator wasnt needed

[@thedoruk6324]

@@jameshayward7539 what really Can you eloborate it a little

[@jameshayward7539]

Sure thing. So when Schwarzeggner was voiced in Predator Hunting grounds following the release of the prequel book , Stalking Shadows, the lore of Predator took things further within the story. Literally this Wednesday, OWLF tapes were released within the game with the licence and actress to voice isabelle. With this sees her return to Earth and get her story revealed in a Canon setting with regards to the comic release that came out shortlt after the film Predators was released. Its an exciting time for Predator fans right now. With the revamp from Illfonic and the Disney take over with Predator 5 Skulls being filmed as I type. Its a great time for us fans. Especially so since marvel have released alien comics with predator in the running, plis the FX Aliens TV series on the horizon 😁

Hey ever think about adding no copyright music to your videos? It helps viewers maintain focus and concentration on your actual video by adding in background atmosphere and gravitas. In essence it just helps entertain people more which in turn means more viewers and longer viewing sessions. There are times I'm watching your videos and drift off. I truly think some music/ambient sounds would help out your videos immensely. Just trying to help as I know I could watch all your videos start to end because of the lore, but can't because I just lose attention span.

[@AcidGlow]

Add music so the artist can claim my entire video. Nah, I'm not going to do that. Some of my old videos cannot get the music removed and it's locked and i lost monetization. An artist can say "free today" but "not free" tomorrow. Once you add music you run the risk of losing monetization.

I strongly disagree. Background music is distracting and never executed well in KZbin typically too loud in the sound mix in production

Since the predators created the giant predator from that one movie, I think they created the 4 arm one too.

[@phorz85]

A theme that repeatingly sztands out is the willingness to ignore various of their valued rules, as soon they r hunting alone. From one who decides 4 an honorable challenge against a grizley (at least if we ignore that he still uses blades) , but only after he already went with a plasmacaster after bears - such a battle even against a single xenodrone, wouldn't b respectable enough n prolly couldn't earn the right too b blooded with a strict leader. A leader like top knot in a normal situation prolla also's dismiss it tho' he would b opportunistic enough n play loose with rules like this 1 if he wants to humiliate others by it. Then the one who refuses the ritual suicide n even drops the mask which obviously wasn't accidently but i neither think, a gift of respect, which would b given to the recepient in a way that the action is understood as such by him - not just dropped like garbage while walking offn without even eye contact. The predator that shoots at the massassi wjho only has a primitive spear... They all r shameful enough to b unsuitable to their regulare honor code, could in part b enough 4 a perspective punishment that will drive one into chosen exile as bad blood. The dropped mask even breaks a rule that likely is viewed as far more important than any honor code offense. Even if meant as a gift, leaving their tech in the hands of other intelligent species is a complete no go n the reason why they have detonator wristbands that r like small nukes. This rule even would b accepted by bad bloods,prolly. We only see them give tech to humans in a controlled environment or if they r allowed into their clan. Otherwise a combistick was the furthest piece of their arsenal to b gifted n there the human, though not include to the clan, still earned a blooding n is therefore a special case too. If judged strictly but not extremely either, the baerfighter with his 2 combined offenses could very well earn a death sentence i'd guess. Not one that leaves a redemption by extreme bravery to chance but one that makes a lethal fate certain. I think they don't punish by direct execution cuz it is still a dishonorable act for the executioner to kill a fellow predator without challenge sl it has to b indirect even if that is so highly stretched to a level of almost pure semantics. That would b the style of such aellod beings.

[@m0istur]

The thing about the 4 armed predator is that if the predators didn't want to combine with other species, then what about the evolved predator in the 2018 predator movie? I think similar to the origins of the evolved predator, the 4 armed predator was created by a group of predators and 1 volunteered

[@illuminated2494]

I hope for another avp game... so much fun good times

[@リン-c8y]

35:22 one of the predators mask is like Mr blacks mask

[@friendlyneighbourhoodarsen7351]

Now the bear vs predator makes sense. The bear was driven by its desire to protect its cub and its way stronger than a human so it would probably be able to win over a predator

[@shawnmiller2515]

The story you told about AVP REQUIEM, you mentioned the blue liquid, the blue liquid is a form of acid that is used for many different reasons, such as in the second movie with Danny Glover, when he cut off the predator's arm holding the wheel blade. After he cut off the arm the hunter crashed into an appartment bathroom window. After which the predator was searching for something too bandage his wound so he used the tile of the bathroom wall and crushed into his unfolding metal saucer so after he crushed it into the saucer the predator pulled out a vile of the blue liquid and poured it over the crushed bathroom tile in which it started dissolving the tile at which which point he applied the blue liquid and tile mix to his stump which acted as a way too cauterize the wound which made him scream very loud. So the blue liquid could also be used for first aid as well as dissolving flesh, I believe it can be used too dissolve other things aren't necessarily carbon based beings.

[@weedwizzard4208]

In for the little boy story bobby and Robert are kind of considered the same name in North America

[@Tarnished-bn5gq]

The way he pronounces “Yautja” triggers me to no end. Otherwise, good shit.

[@zombiehunter501]

I think the sotry of the 4 armed yautja in one of two ways. One: it's a volunteer to take on the super preds and experimented on, unleashed to see what it could do, unaware the super preds were already dead. 2: it was an elite or clan leader who fell victim to a mutagen and was so honourable in life that killing them like a sick animal was shameful, and an honourable death is the best way out of its horrid existence.

[@jello__0113]

Maybe the one who lost to the bear dropped its mask to leave it to be found by its species or perhaps because it was embarrassed about losing to a bear and didn't want the others to know lol

Knowing that humans will find a way to kill it.

[@elseanorofark2563]

I don’t see Philosophers as mysterious, so much as I see them as overly specialized, and rarely necessary. ‘Missions of the Mind’ implies that on rare occasions a species will be found with mental acuity, rather than physical. If a warrior were to meet a previously unknown species, they would be unaware at that point how it might react in battle. What if that species is unable to be approached at all by the warrior because it has hit the Predator with a psionic blast that completely incapacitates him, or a sudden transfer to another dimension? With these rare encounters, the physical prowess of the Predators may not be enough to declare dominance over the new species. Since absolute domination over all other species is the entire basis for their civilization, this poses a direct threat to them on a completely different level. Enter the Philosopher Class. While they are blooded, as all warriors must be in order to hunt, these warriors fight with weapons of the mind. As there is little to go on in the canon, I like to think of these warriors as ones who won their previous hunts, but were far too physically injured to be allowed to continue. They would be given the choice to either kill themselves, or become a Philosopher. It was a way to continue hunting when they were now too physically compromised to fight normally. On extremely rare occasions, perhaps a Predator would be born with an innate, and deadly, psionic ability. Either as a mutation caused by an injury to a parent by an alien species, or through plain dumb luck. Such a young one may develop his skills right along with his battle training. Then, when he reaches the time of retirement, he can be given the option to continue fighting mentally, when others could not. In either of these scenarios, Philosophers could be given respect for continuing on when many warriors might have to give up. It is an important role, though not often mentioned or acknowledged. Physical hunts will always be considered more important in the eyes of the Predator species. However, a true warrior civilization must acknowledge that occasionally a situation might arise where mental battle will be more effective than physical...and a true warrior society would have prepared for even this rare contingency.
