I fucking loved this movie!! I loved your reactions. I was feeling the same thing you were. I have seen every other one in the past and this is definitely the best one now. I have seen others hate on this movie , saying it was boring first 45 min, and that Naru was a Mary Sue. Wtf?? Good job guys

Please react to everything, everywhere, all at once 🤣

The dog in this was a shelter dog adopted for this movie cause its breed is Carolina dog or American dingo which was one of the breeds that came across the baring straight thousands of years ago.

Taabe called the predator a cheater for turning invisible when he was kicking its ass, he would have beaten it otherwise.

What’s really cool is the The shield they got the idea from the new Gotta war game that’s why it looks the way it looks and they retract the way it does!!!

the dog shouldve died in the film

She acted so good honestly .

I was really impressed by their choice for the look of the dog. At that time, those dogs would still be all native mixes.

@@glittermasterofarrakis6730It actually is a native American dog. They are called Carolina Dogs. I have one and have had one in the past. They are not much removed from the wild.

@@rainmanjr3 Thanks for the info. Always nice to learn about a type or breed that is not common in my area.

Same man this was probably one of the best predator movies I've seen but I could be predioudous cuz I'm native too

We were represented well!! 🙌🏼

YES!! Navajo here. One of my earliest memories is watching this movie with my dad and him being like, "Don't tell Mom I let you watch this." LOL! 😂 Good times.

I have been wanting something like this for years, they did do three stories one set in ancient Africa, one where it was set in modern time but the character was an indeginous American male and was set in pre colonial Australia. So the Prey storyline isn't new. Naru is the new Ripley in my books. She has that vibe.

I love Native American history and culture, being Eastern European my self. But in this movie, I kind of could not feel truth of Native Americans. For me it was acted, not natural, like in Gibson's Apocalypto. Maybe that movie was misleading, I don't know. However, this movie was very well made and I liked it.

There's a good fan film on YT called "Predator: Dark Ages" which you may like.

Samurais, templars, Vikings, Napoleonic wars, WW2,…

Having just seen the Northman I am all about that!!!

@@goonymiami a samurai era predator with Hiroyuki Sanada.

Vikings or Spartans

It's definitely even more tense knowing that that weapon eventually ends up with the Predators later on.

@@PierceArner i knew it was the same gun but i didn't think about how it got back into the hands of the Predators. RIP Naru.

@@beppo2814 Not necessarily. Given this film's love of the source material, there are a lot of details to consider that have far more interesting possibilities. The comics had the origin of the pistol coming from a story about a pirate crew stranded on an island where the Predator hunted them. The crew mutinied against the captain, so he fought them off being aided by the predator, but was shot in the back before the two of them turned on one another. The pistol was a gift to that predator, who was the same Elder who gives it to Harrigan in _Predator 2._ While _Prey_ established a different origin for the pistol here, it's entirely possible that it's given to one of the Predators as a gift in lieu of a direct trophy, in the same way it's done later on in _Predator 2._ That seems even more likely with the tease of multiple ships arriving in the credit sequence, given what the other films have shown about them, but also in how _Prey_ established the tension between the French & Comanche, despite both being humans. While the regular Predators are fairly often shown to be amenable towards temporary cooperation with humans against a mutual threat like in _AvP_ or _The Predator_ not all of them are. _Predators_ made it clear that the larger Super Predators hunt the regular Predators, and even the crucified Predator in that film is used in a very similar way to how the French used Naru & her brother in _Prey._ The Feral Predator in _Prey_ is physiologically different from either type we've seen before but seems significantly more like the Super Predators. Given the type of hunters that they are, it seems like they'd be the type to send down the Feral to hunt on more primitive worlds, and only come down en masse if there was something capable of killing the Feral. That's precisely what looks to be happening at the end of the film. Given that the motif and theme of _Prey_ is centered around "hunting something hunting you" and the end of the film having Naru move the tribe to higher and more defensible ground, it seems focused on expanding the circumstances they're faced with. Since she received the pistol by temporarily trusting the French translator, and also needed the Predators' own technology to win, she's in a prime position to act as a way to understand the same dynamic in the Predator castes. Just like the Frenchman explaining the pistol, she needs a Predator to be able to understand how to use their weaponry, especially after moments like the spear collapsing shut preventing her from attacking with it means she can't rely on it without that. There's no way for them to hold out against hunters equipped to kill other Predators, and looking to hunt something capable of killing one. The Predators in _AvP_ were also established as working with tribal humans to build the ancient temples, so there's also precedent to follow for that as well. Assuming that the Comanche do strike an alliance with a Predator against that larger threat, her giving up the pistol as a sign of trust seems like a natural one to establish that bond or as a show of respect in a way that would add appropriate weight and context to that gesture in _Predator 2._ It would also follow the same elements of alliance and threat of invasion that _The Predator_ was going for, but within a far more contained incident, where that particular predator being an Elder could be the whole reason that a heavier focus never got directed back towards Earth until much later.

i dont think its the only gun they made

I guess the “let it breathe” thoughts, it man…. Gimme samurais with this franchise.

I really like that insight, and I agree 100%. Taabe really is a phenomenal model of a male character who's supportive and emotionally open, yet sacrifices none of his masculinity.

@@cbp117 "ultra Feminism propaganda" LOL It's so damned funny how even the barest concept of simple equality between genders enrages these oh-so-fragile male egos.

@@RobinHood3000 yeah! I saw some interviews with Dakota beavers, and he said that he really wanted taabe to be someone that supports his sister in any way he can. And the one time he does put her down, you can tell that its because he was terrified since he had to carry his unconscious little sister back home after she almost died in a mountain lion, not because he really thinks she couldn't do it

Too bad she dgaf about him

@@whospetcov9650 what that, teenagers think and act selfishly? They've done that since the dawn of time? News to me.

ao worried about the dog

100% this, along with a WW1 or WW2 film, Vikins, maybe even the Civil War. But this first

A young exiled Ninja and an old dishonored Ronin team up against a Predator. I'll take someone like Karen Fukuhara and Hiroyuki Sanada !

@@PLBiohazard That would be dope, make it like a Akira Kurizowa film. I wanna see Ninja’s and Samurai fighting a Predator.

Did that one with the Yakuza in Predators. I would reboot AvP again with Prey as the new Canon.

@@harvestcanada But that was only a scene not a whole movie. Also I think we can keep the currents canon (all thw Predator films) including the AvP films and have a new Aliens vs Predators film. Just call it “Predators vs Aliens”

there was a lot loaded in that war cry. if she hadn't stayed true to what she believed, and continued to train, she would not have survived that encounter. The OG predator is my favorite, however I do think this is a better film.

@@Kevinschart I was blown away by this movie. It was everything I never knew I wanted. It's difficult to compare them because they both have very different tones. This felt like I was watching a period piece drama at times & yet it also didn't feel like the Pred was just thrown in either. It all worked so beautifully. I only wish I could've seen it on the big screen.

Yeah it feels really earned and she deliveries it with passion. It made me tear up as well.

@@d3l3tes00n I still think they should do a limited release, they don't even have to do marketing because word of mouth has taken care of that. I'd go see it again and I'm sure there are ppl who don't have Hulu who would go to see it at the theatre.

I agree that he was no fan of the trappers. The Predator species is one of honor. That is why they don't kill someone unarmed, pregnant or vulnerable. To have found the skinned buffalo and realizing it was them that killed them totally pissed him off!

I know right it's so wierd

@@mickeymouse7726 Not that weird lol

I don't know if it is weird, but it is different. I too, have never known or talked to anyone who liked that movie.

Yeah that film was absolute the worst Pred film ever but I respect his opinion.

@@biscuitman5388 I was more invested in the human characters in that movie than the human characters in Predator 2 or Predators. Sorry! lol

If I remember correctly they used natural lighting to film everything so the time progression feels even more real than others

WASTED

Agreed!

I think he _meant_ Red Dead Redemption too, haha.

When it came out,I tried to buy tickets as well,then noticed it,family was out of town so I got to watch it full blast on my 80" TV, was great

same i watched it the other night and now i plan on bingeing the rest as well. would kill to watch it again in theatres it’s so good

Definitely the sound and music background was A+. This should've been in a theater. Dolby Atmos!

She did anthem. The game was bad but the music was amazing

I googled the ending too. My nerves can't take it anymore.

I love that, too! He's a character in and of himself and it works so well for the movie.

@@sparkymularkey6970 his(I assume it’s a he)journey parallel to Naru’s who tried to prove themselves to their tribe is simple efficient and brilliant

@@madtitan0825 Yes! I was thinking that, too! And the parallel scenes of the two of them healing themselves was a masterful touch. So good!

@@sparkymularkey6970 I heard people talking about different era they wanna see the predator in what’s ur thought and era u would be interested just curious

@@madtitan0825 Feudal Japan seems to be the fan favorite choice right now. That and Vikings. I would honestly love to see either of those.

Awww, that's just too cute.

and she never had any movie training they just picked her up from a shelter and she did incredibly

Yeah now I want a story on how the predators got the gun back from the natives.

@@mazeful6345 me too

​@@mazeful6345 during the animation credits it shows that a predator ship comes right after she is made war chief

Guaranteed that this Predator was a Young Blood, but he does have at least some experience. Considering he's hunting solo, maybe this is his Blooding hunt. Love that you mentioned the "Cheater" part. When he got overwhelmed by Tabbe, he either should have ran off to heal, or engaged from the front. He probably had a Clan Leader watching and got chewed the fuck out for stabbing Tabbe in the back.

what does this have to do with anything

@@ibuprofriends They keep saying "Im not a native American" in many videos. Where did they come from then?

As someone carrying much Choctaw blood and an acute knowledge of our history (learned independently, not from US schools of course), I was right with you when they showed the skinned tȟatȟáŋka. I turned to my wife and I said "That's not the Predator, that's f*cking trappers". Those shots hardcore pissed me off - as did most of the scenes with those filthy bastards. I was so glad when they got their comeuppance! We watched the film in the Comanche version with subtitles, and even though most of the native language was looped in and it often wasn't the actors speaking it, just hearing it provided a much more real and immersive experience. Also, I loved your good-hearted go at it...so it's spelled mahsi cho 😊

@@toddjordan2198 I was glad too when it was their time with the Predator and then the camp fight with Naru was incredibly done. I haven't watched in Comanche but I know it's going to hit differently just hearing a traditional language done with respect in a film. I'm Northern Tutchone from Yukon, Canada. That's actually how we spell it here. There are other dialects in the Yukon that spell it "Massi" but it's really incredible to learn that we have the same "thank you" and come from different Nations. Just goes to show we are still connected on Turtle Island ❤

@@thenerdynorth Namasté 😉

This is what it looks like when setup and payoff are executed well.

I hear Revlon and Maybelline are trying to co-sponsor the sequel...Rouge One Two: The Eyeliner Strikes Back.

I wasn't aware of this as I'm not a hardcore Predator lore guy, but someone in the comments mentioned that the plasma cannon is an "earned upgrade option" as the Predators are going through their training and trials to become better hunters.

@@toddjordan2198 Ah okay. It just makes hunting too 'easy' for them IMO lol

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA omg amazing 😂

I'm curious about that as well.
