Prey - Let Me Explain Predator

It's a small thing, but I like that the brother believed her instantly. His issue with her going out wasn't that he thought she was crazy, but right or wrong, he didn't think she could handle it. He never dismissed what she thought she saw and only said that IF there was something, he would go find it.

as a first nations indigenous female, the representation in this film is so important to me. the fact that the film centres on a female, rather than a male, when almost all indigenous tribes and cultures are matriarchal is phenomenal. my mom was born in 1958, she hates horror movies, and she LOVED prey. it’s the most culturally accurate portrayal of indigenous ways in any other movie or television show she’s seen in her lifetime, AND the cast members are actual indigenous actors and actresses and not just racially ambiguous. representation matters!

How are most tribes matriarchal? Men hunted women took care of children and took care of the home, the only possibility of any kind of matriarch would be spiritual. Movie would probably have been better with a guy as the main protagonists

[@triloization]

@@manniefresh3425 it does not matter who goes hunting and who takes care in a social system. When the women lead due to the wisdom that the society thinks they inherent and give them therefore the power to rule, it is matriarchal or mater linear. To rule you do not have to be the greatest hunter or the best warrior. The most rulers within the last 1000 years, where neither good hunters or mighty warriors. We live in a social construct tgat said that the men should rule because of their strength, but that was not always the case. People in the stone age w did not know or care about this. Their social construct was different to the patriarchy. Nothing is set in stone within human societies.

Woman analyse things so much faster than man but mens reflexes are superior. Intelligence is the same just their hamster is a bit faster for better or worse Just like mens aggression. The movies showed the bad side of men's and the good side trough her brother being as smart as her and the better warrior being able to fucking 1v1 a predator in a fair figth causing the predator to play dirty to win. She won due to her quick wits and playing dirty by trapping him and getting the upper hand by planning in advance with usefull strategies against the predator tactics.

Something I really appreciated in this movie was the relationship between the siblings, simply the older brother Taabe wasn't a d*c . He openly acknowledged and respected her intelligence and skills,wanted to share credit with her, reasonbly defended her against the other males, and while protective, was not overbearing or too controlling. And when the scene came showed he was a damn good fighter , showcasing why everyone respected him. I genuinely felt the sadness that he wasnt there to witness Naru officially be acknowledged as a hunter and warrior. It was so sad.

I liked this movie. Seriously And it matches the tone, storyline, history and direction of the first 2 movies. The concept of The Predator was always cool but some of the films seemed to stray from the original "horror/action" style. Prey should set the tone for the next installment.

[@Nobody-Nowhere]

Not really. First 2 movies were grimey and both had their unique environments that were well built. Predator 2 went even much further creating this heat wave ridden coked up gangwar where predator enters as observer first. This was super clean, boring and completely linear. It really had no personality. It set all the things so linearly, like the woman falling into the swamp and then using it to trap the predator. First showing people the plant that lowered your body temperature, then using it to beat the predator. Like this type of really boring and lazy writing.

[@jasoncarter1869]

@@Nobody-Nowhere (hmmmm🤔) It's so easy to nitpick every aspect of a "good movie"..... Nitpicking, even for the sake of comparison, doesn't make one movie objectionably better than another. 1. The was first Predator was way too slow. 2. No back-story for the antagonist. 3. Arguably one of the best kills of the movie happened off camera( Billy) 4. It took literally 15secs for the main character to realize that the mud bath worked. 5. One thin layer of mud is not enough to mask a person's body heat from thermal imagining. 6. The bow string that he uses isn't even tight enough to fire an arrow and you can see that on screen. 5. The Protagonist literally out runs what looks like the explosion of a tactical nuke. The most cliche and fake part of the movie. 6. Most of the dialog was cliche and overly "macho" and it was all formulaic. 7. Every character single character was useless when it came down actually help defeat the antagonist. All fodder. 8. The one-man-trope was being done by almost every action movie in that decade. (Un-original) 9. Second fakest thing in the movie is how many body builders are in this unit. (The actors even lifted weights off camera to "look bigger" when it was time to shoot scenes) 10. Formulaic pre fight montage was telegraphed...as they sync up there levels of readiness....predictably. I could literally just go on and on about the Predator and all it's flaws but that doesn't make it an objectionably bad movie. Same with PREY and every other movie.

[@NaytGaming]

@@jasoncarter1869 I've watched both recently, so might aswell nitpick your nitpicks for fun. 1. The movie or the creature itself? 2. It's unnecessary. Besides, the less we know about the Pred the better. (In Prey, I feel that there was no need to actually SHOW the cloaked predator as it took out a lot of the mystery) 3. That was intentional, subverting expectations and all that. 4. Dutch is a smart guy, tho it was cheesy for him to state it to the audience. 5. Still more believable than instantly-working, magic herbs. 6. Don't see how that's a nitpick 7. Homage to the action genre, I guess. A bit of silly fun. 8. The movie's goal was to dissect the tropes of the genre, after all. 9. Showcases how the most macho, buff, intelligent badass soldiers are up against something far out of their league. Reinforces what an absolute UNIT the Predator is. 10. Product of the genre and plot, I guess. 11. Reinforces the theme of helpless machos. (Not all of them were bodybuilders) 12. It was a good scene to show the similarities between the two characters. None of these I would consider faults, as opposed to the magic herbs, a plot-convenient dog, and an unintimidating antagonist of Prey.

Imagine a movie about an old/middle aged former Yakuza taking arms after the small town that he lives in starts being terrorized by a monster that skins its victims and takes their skulls, much like he used to when he led his own gang. Him seeing the horror of it and remembering his criminal life. Thinking that this is heavens that sent a monster to punish him for his sins. With the culmination of the movie being a swords duel between an old killer and an initiate predator, where neither is a victor. A good sci-fi is not about the fantastic things. It is about human beings. About how different human beings would act in an unprecedented situations. And predator movies have a lot of untapped dramatic potential.

Prey was easily the best sequel/movie with the predator since the original.

I liked how Prey explained why Predators do some of the things they do or added things to their culture. Like scaring themselves with Alien blood was them copying the Naru and the Comanche custom of covering yourself with the blood of your kill. How the Predator comes back and basically kill Naru them to get the gun. On how the Predator was basically learning from scratch how to deal with animals by letting them hurt him. To see how much damage they could to him. Kinda felt like he was stalking Naru like an over protective boyfriend at times though.

Easily the best Predator movie since the OG Schwarzenegger film and (spicy hot take) for me, the best of the entire franchise. I really, really, REALLY hope that Hulu releases this movie (with the bonus Comanche dub) for purchase on home video because I would love to add this to my movie collection. But, given the current state of streaming films, it's far more likely that it will NEVER see a Blu-ray or 4K release. And that breaks my heart as a cinephile who believes wholeheartedly in the preservation of physical media. I would say that if it had rightfully gotten a full theater roll-out, maybe it would have been slated for physical release, but given that the Dave Bautista Army of the Dead has yet to see the light of day, even that doesn't mean anything in 2022.

Now that I say that, I have to mention that the OG Predator also had a political background concerning the US's history with Contras throughout the 80's & 90's. P.P.S.

"Prey (2022)" and "Cowboys & Aliens (2011)" are a great Double Feature.

[@GreaterGrievobeast55]

Wow, Someone remember that movie!

[@m5902]

End scene is ridiculous. Anybody know the targeting system of a fighter jet ( the ground laser and the missile ). Can you imagine a soldier on the ground points the laser on the jet and the jet pilot is too stupid too recognize the fact that he's targeting himself. And even worse.... he fires the missile in to himself and does suicide. The most dumbest predator in in the history!

[@digitalbarrito3555]

I think this was the best Predator movie to come out since Predator 2

[@lesternewlife]

Saw it recently, one of best prequels out there, dirction, sound design , tenstion , action .Nice touch ! Director Dan 👏👏👏 7 out of 10 A soild film.

[@natevari2509]

It’s wild that this is the best one since the 80s

[@stephenbrady4352]

I've seen it 3 times. Each time seeing things I either hadn't before or catching masterful practical effects at in practice only visible upon a second or third viewing. The wolf decapitation and head removal is a perfect example, the fur blends from the head to the neck so well that you have to really look to see the line between them and when the head is pulled up and the spine comes with it, it's just so realistic an angle that upon first glance it's easily missed.

[@sogggy]

Fun fact, Jean-Claude Van Damme was supposed to be the Predator in the first movie. There is footage of him running around in a costume.

[@FrankFrankly711]

I thought the thing he throws at 18:28 was a bear trap to the face? Ouch!! 🐻🐻🐻

[@crysiswar5]

Best kill

[@madisonbrown5766]

The one major mistake was when the Predator lost his face helmet, he shouldn’t have been able to see clearly. It should have been red like the first movie when he fought Dutch.

[@GreaterGrievobeast55]

Given how Naaru’s able to dodge the predator attacks, his vison likely *is* impaired. I imagine yauja have to rely on other senses to keep up with their prey at all without a helmet enhancing that dreadful eyesight.

[@mihirshetye4624]

Somewhat of a valid point,but there is inconsistency in how Predator's naked vision really looks like.It's reddish in the 1st film,but apparently infrared(pretty much like with its helmet) in the second one. Personally,I believe the native vision of the Predator will be thermal based,but just that the face helmet/the bio mask amplifies and fine tunes it further,besides providing additional vision modes in various other wavelengths,as seen when the Predator was switching vision modes during the slaughterhouse scene in the 2nd film.

[@FreddyD177]

AVP2 pissed me off. it had so much good potential and the worst part is you can't see a goddamn thing!!! If it wasn't as dark and you could see what was going on it wouldn't have been as bad. Also I usually am cool with dark films this time I mean dark as in messed up but was the whole xenomorph impregnating the pregnant women at the hospital really necessary? I mean geez they even showed their stomachs opened up with the babies coming out obviously implying they just ate a baby that was just ready to be born I'm surprised they even passed that when rating it.

[@lulub517]

For real, have to brighten up the damn TV to see anything. The Predalien was the only thing that helped me keep watching the movie tbh and I think people overreact about the belly burster thing lol, it’s just a gory shlock fest after all. If only you could see the gore in the first place too!

[@lovergirl5013]

everyone was complaining about this movie, i loved it so much!!!

[@njunge34]

I'm glad you made this. I've never seen the movies before but now they look so cool to me.

[@dellytancyl524]

Predator kept me at the edge of my seat as a kid, I was terrified enough that I'm still debating if I want to see this one because the PTSD was real for me. That movie and poltergeist ruined my childhood I don't know if I want to go there again.

[@sccur]

Don't forget the video game influence on the original Alien vs. Predator.

[@filthyshoggoth]

As in the AvP movie? Better advice, forget both AvP movies exist. If you mean the original crossover of AvP from the early nineties, yeah.

[@adaobioguchi5123]

You’re back!!! :)

[@blaze14ZX]

Yessss. Hey thanks for talking about all the movies it was really fun. I never saw the first two and I slept on the one with Olivia Munn but damn prey was excellent. Thanks for the video LME it rocked.

[@victorsternberg1166]

Overall, movie was great. However, I was the under the impression that the gun was given to the Predator by Raphael Adolini himself according to the comics. Can you explain why they would change the storyline?

[@dovidstaples9985]

Why not

[@glazed_waffle5629]

Yeah I liked the Pirate storyline but I guess not

[@noconaroubideaux9423]

It makes more sense in this version. Why would the predator want a random gun from prey they hadn't fought? It really doesn't even make sense that the predator cared enough about Raphael Adolini's situation to be involved in the first place. Now, the gun was actually used in killing a predator. Since the people who are able to kill predators are honored by the other predators, it makes sense that a weapon used in one of those kills also gains a sort of prestige. Of course, none of this is real and the rules set for the predator are broken without consequence regularly.

[@leopoldbriggs7139]

The whole franchise along with, The Thing and Aliens tend to retcon their own expanded universe often.

[@victorsternberg1166]

@@noconaroubideaux9423 I guess. However, the gun was a gift of mutual respect between Rafael Andolini and the Predator. It was not meant to be taken force by, so I would to see how that plays out in the sequel. If you recall the comic version, the predator repeats Raphael Adolini’s dying words to Danny Glover / Lt. Harrigan… take it!

[@ollybear13]

I hope they do make a sequel, I thought it would've been a feminist message but it was a genuine smart character who's femininity wasn't the center of her ideals and it was just a person trying to prove themselves

[@arealnika]

love the setup to the film. it makes the timeline have a lot of gaps that can be filled with “the was a predator all along” 😂

Great movie. Love it. Dolby Atmos made it one of the best, if not the best sounding movie I saw on my DA system this year.

[@sambird141]

I'd like to know how the Prometheus and aliens covenant movies tie into this timeline

[@filthyshoggoth]

Why do people insist that the two are even related? AvP started as a cross-over fantasy comic series and line of toys. The concept is pure marketing, and the lore only shoehorned them in the same universe to sell books and toys. And even worse? Paul WS Anderson ruined any chance of the movies not sucking. Xenomorphs and Yautja weren't conceived to be connected. I ignore any and all AvP 'canon' because aside from the original line, it's all shit.

[@sambird141]

@@filthyshoggoth well David is in both films and they reference the Prometheus ship many times so there's that connection

[@story3877]

So one thing that i personally haven't seen anyone talk about in KZbin reviews of prey yet: if Danny glover is given the gun BY the predators, does that mean when they showed up they wiped out her entire community and took the gun as a trophy? So after all that she loses anyway? Obviously that's them leaving it open to a sequel, but i kind of hope they just leave it open ended.

[@Wright805]

That wouldn't make any sense. It's been shown multiple times that the Predators do NOT seek revenge. It's more likely they showed up, gave her some kind of token (like what happened with Harrigan in Predator 2 and Batman in the comics) and she gave them the pistol in a show of mutual respect.

@@MagnifiedGiant care to explain?

[@MagnifiedGiant]

@@CharmedReally7 Almost everything about it was ridiculous. The woke themes were way too much as well. Nothing made any sense if you thought about it for a spit second, so if you sat there like a simpleton drooling on yourself while watching this movie you would probably like it. For me it was extremely lazy. Watch any scene and there is something that is stupid or the plot armour is so thick that it is blatantly obvious and it takes you out of the move.

[@CharmedReally7]

@@MagnifiedGiant bruh there is nothing woke about this film, just because the main lead is a female is suddenly considered woke? Everything that happened made sense because this Predator isn't the same as from the first film, it's younger and more impulsive and isn't as familiar with the human race as shown with him killing animals up the foodchain. And the protagonist beat it using the same strategy as the lead from the first film, to weaken it and lead it into a trap. It's not lazy if you just think for a quarter of a second

[@MagnifiedGiant]

@@CharmedReally7 People who say "bruh" are woke. The whole story and message is woke garbage unfortunately you are clearly so brainwashed that you cannot see it. Garbage movie. If it makes you happy in your safe space than I guess this kind of modern movie propaganda is what you want. Enjoy

[@sardonicapple5369]

Great job but Jeez that Ellen/Munn clip has not aged well knowing how Ellen treated people and got worse after being called out for her treatment of others. Oh and that line "sequels to the 70s like Maverick:Top Gun"????? Ooof, was that a joke? Or did I hear that wrong? I enjoyed it and I agree that DT did a great job with removing the one thing I can't stand about most prequels; the lack of stakes. Being not to heavy handed with nostalgia helped too. There could be more prequels if other IPs that could use a change if scenery and a shift away from Canon and lore to benefit that feeling of saturation, looking at you mouse house and Wan.

[@lkf8799]

Nice! I wasn't expecting an entire recap so that was awesome. 🤓

[@FoNgThOnG]

The hate that this movie is getting is ridiculous lol It's nothing but incels hating the movie cause a WOMAN took down a Yautja. We're living in a time where if the movie isn't the top of its game and doesn't cater to the incels, they're gonna hate on it. While it isn't as great as the first and second movie, it was still an enjoyable watch.

[@amarisabstractmind6635]

I don’t like this movie but not because of the lead the acting was nice the fights are nice and the cinematography and location was perfect. But the fact that so Native American girl can get choked slammed full force by a massive creature like that and just get up and keep fighting is absurd to me. The film just didn’t convince me that anyone from that time could ever take out a predictor.

[@gbdeck200]

Nah it's not great Average maybe but low on that too and not the best since 1 Writing treats the others as high school bullies, her entire arc Is off in the society she's in but worse is plot armor surviving so her girl power arc is constantly shown as not true
