- Badd Medicine here and its PREY reaction time
Folks, by now, you probably have seen Prey, and wow was this almost as good as the first one. The original Predator with Arnold Schwarzenegger stand the test of time. Well, at least in our eyes. The other Predator movies were just ok at best. Prey is sort of a prequel and it was great to see all the call backs in this one. And great job on the Predator as well. Great to see it was a suit and not CGI. In this one it felt like the Predator was able to be attacked a little more, but clearly it wasn't enough at certain points in the film. Amber Midthunder crushed it as Naru. We thought her character was great. Some can nit pick, but we enjoyed her performance.
Prey Plot
A skilled Comanche warrior protects her tribe from a highly evolved alien predator that hunts humans for sport, fighting against wilderness, dangerous colonisers and this mysterious creature to keep her people safe.

I’ve only watched AVP so it was nice to see you guys point out the callbacks. I’m not a fan of the franchise but this movie was really good. Great reaction guys!
@@ateam404 if you ever get the time we highly recommend checking out the first. You'll be entertained. Thanks for checking this out. 🤙
yautja didnt hunt
non combatan
people with illness
kids
harmless woman
a trapped prey
they have honor system
also when it comes to slay alien xenomorph ,they have to slay it with swords/blades for the 1st kill before they allowed to use laser cheat auto aim ,u will see this in alien vs predator ,after the 1st alien kill he marked his helmet and put on the laser on his shoulder
Next movie they should do greyback storyline...it will be epic ✅💯😁
Guys, I just want to make you aware of scammers in your comment section, using your channel image, trying to scam through telegram.
As a Native American, I loved that the story revolved around a tribe during this time period. Always cool to see a story like that. I think it fit in well with the Predator franchise. Also the dog was adorable lol. 💚
Same
The setting and story was great. The Predator itself wasn't overly too powerful as it seemed like it might have been young in it's hunts. We know people have nit picked it, but we thought it was a great prequel. And the dog was great too 😁🤙
@@BaddMedicine That would definitely make sense about it being young. Although I've seen some of the other movies, I went into it with an open mind and thought it was great. People will nitpick anything to death lol. I'm glad the dog survived. 💚
Same fer me as someone of partial Cheyenne,Pima,Amazonian,Melungeon,Yakut,Ainu,Saami,Aztec,Inka,Tatar,Athabaskan,Iberian,Celtiberian,Basque,Mixtec,Zapotec and Inupiat descent on my dad`s side.
As a fellow Native American of the Muscogee Creek Nation, I agree.
Her brother admitted that she hurt the lion, and he killed it. He hurt the Predator, and she finished it off. Perfect balance, and I loved how that played out. I loved both characters, the acting, writing, and cinamatography. I think Prey was exactly what was needed as a restart to the franchise. Great review guys!
Well... not so much of a restart, if they added the detail of Adolini's pistol that appeared in Predator 2.
Also... I loved that the best hand to hand combat that the Predator had come from the brother rather than she. She killed him because of previous preparation, but the borther actually gave him the hardest fight.
@@alejandroyava It shows how working together & adapting works best.
This movie was sick! I believe the director confirmed the Predator in this film was a rookie on his first solo hunt which explains a lot of his reckless mistakes. He was meant to mirror Naru in how they're both on a journey to prove themselves as hunters. And he might have been from a different tribe than the Predator in the original, as well.
So cool that this was a "rookie" predator
It's confirmed he's from a different hemisphere of the predator homeworld.
Yep. Feral is from a desert climate on Yautja Prime. It's not the first time we've seen a Predator from a different region. Scar, Celtic and Chopper are from a colder area which is why they wear more armour than usual. Dark and City are from the Elite clan. There's more but can't remember...
The mere concept behind this movie is a gold mine, all they have to do is drop a Predator into different time periods and BOOM! Multiple movies right there!
Great point!
Agreed. Someone said "imagine this in a viking environment, age of samurai warriors etc"
Would be awesome to see how human survival tactics compare!
I remember Mr Sunday Movies saying something similar but with the Terminator, it truly is a concept that can work pretty much everywhere
Ancient Egyptians vs Predator. Vikings vs Predator. Samurai vs Predator. Napoleonic War soldiers vs Predator. Dinosaurs vs Predator. It's a gold mine.
@@sparkymularkey6970 Jurassic Park vs. Predator crossover 🤔
It's so great to see Native representation in major films. I'm they chose actual Natives to play the major roles instead of being backdrops. Plus, the producer is Native herself. This film had my attention all the way through. I watched it several times since it's release. Her war cry and Naru receiving the eagle staff at the end gave me chills and made me teary-eyed. I enjoyed your guys' reaction and review. Hello from the Navajo Nation.
Thank you and thanks for watching. 🤙🤙
it’s also awesome because they released this movie in a full Comanche language dub as well!!! it was originally meant to be filmed with no english and have the tribe only speak Comanche but production ended up deciding against it so it would have a wider audience which is a little disappointing because that would’ve been awesome. apparently there was even an exclusive early screening for the Comanche tribe. it’s amazing how much care they took and the real appreciation of the culture
What I love about this and the first predator was that it's main purpose is to be about survival. While I feel the rest are focused on action or even slasher, so that tension is lacking. So glad this one is a step in the right direction!
Took the words right outta my mouth. The whole survival thing is something they did right. It makes it so interesting to watch!
I really liked Predators in 2010
I like that the Feral Predator was taking blows all throughout the movie. It's not as advanced and knowledgable about planet Earth as it will come to be.
That was nice to see.
Yeah they can travel through space but yeah they don't have laser fcking trash.
@@yagutensho4044 - Have fun enjoying that.
This was the brother’s (Dakota Beavers) first role and the dog was a rescue dog. I heard they added more scenes with the dog because he tested so well with preview audiences. These two were phenomenal as was Amber Midthunder and the rest of the cast. Loved it!!!
Dakota's last name makes the "I'm smarter than a beaver" line funnier.
I read an interiew where the director shared that Coco (the dog) was so energetic during filming that they decided to have her in more scenes
Yes, everything is better with a dog
I loooove how smart she is... she studies the predator just as meticulously as he does. Can I hear a whoop whoop for smart, strong, female main characters?
wh00p wh00p!!
Hell yes. Good depiction of natives as well.
@Jason Frawley Everyone had a role in their society. Hunters where typically strong men and women stayed in the village or went gathering (healers).She rebels against that while embracing her healer abilities and gets better with her weapons all by herself (when she walks opposite and doesn't go with the other women or when she trains). She knows she is not as strong as the predator physically thats why she outsmarted him. Something the other Hunters (French and Natives all males btw) failed to do.
@Jason Frawley As every hero in every movie made lol
I love how observant and studious Naru is. She's always willing to learn with a keen focus.
My favorite part of the movie was the fact that the lead just didn't know everything. They actually showed her learning curve.
Everything that she uses against the Predator you can see her learning throughout the whole movie, from the laser guiding the arrows to the Predator not being able to see cold, from the bog trap to the surprise attack from the tree, everything is shown to both the audience and Naru
@@JustKrin Exactly.
@@JustKrin yes literally everything in this movie has a clear set up and pay off and so many parallels from beginning to end. it’s why i hate people calling her a “mary sue” which has kinda just become a dog whistle for “i’m mad this female character is competent” because from the beginning we know she’s smart and capable but she does struggle and need to learn
Exactly, she wasn’t a girl boss know it all. she has determination to get better but you could clearly see that she struggled.
This was this Predators first time on Earth so I love how he slowly moves up the food chain. Mouse kills the ant, Snake kills the mouse, Wolf gets the rabbit, Predator gets them all. Very cool! And since this was set 300 years ago, I love that he's primitive. Almost no armor. Great movie awesome review fellas!
Much appreciated. And it was cool to basically get a raw like predator.
@@BaddMedicine [Edited] Speaking of the food chain, the Western States have pumas, aka mountain lions. Where I grew up North of LA, against the Angeles National Forest, we had a major fire back in the day. A Lot of the wild animals came out of the forest into our neighborhood because there were a ton of open fields. Mountain lions are beautiful, but big and scary; especially when they're hiding in the field brush. Everyone had to keep their pets and dogs inside, and people had to be careful as well
I don’t think this was the first time they were on earth. There are mentions of them fighting samurai in the feudal era, which is 11-15 hundreds. I think would be awesome to see a predator face a samurai.
Oak got it right I think with the Predator leveling the playing field. When it killed the snake, it used the claws like a snake's teeth. When it went up against the wolf, it went down on all fours. It went hand to hand with the bear, and then used the arrows on the guys with Naru who were hunting with arrows.
And the net on the French men who netted him.
Anyone who goes toe to toe with the Predator loses. Naru's strength was asymmetric warfare because of her small size. That was the only way to beat it.
Shout out for being the first reactors (that I've seen) who noticed that the predator was using weapons based on what the opponent was using.
I loved how the predator got on all fours to fight like the wolf does. Lol
Thank you! Much appreciated. We were wondering if anyone else caught that.
@@BaddMedicine no problem mates. Love the reaction.
Not sure if you guys know anything about the predator lore but I'll say it anyways. Predators are dropped of on planets to hunt worthy prey as a ritual to becoming full blooded Predators. So this guy here was a noobie hunter, once they achieve their goal the become true hunters and are allowed to equip the plasma canon. Hence the Predators from movie 1 & 2 were already true hunters Hence they had the plasma canons.
Another little thing is that they have a code of honor to hunt. No children, people with fatal decease or un-armed individuals. Also taking someone else's prey is dishonorable Hence why when naru was trapped before the French appeared he didn't strike her down.
@@necrofear9896 oh interesting, the one thing I didn't know was about the kids. Very interesting.
@@BaddMedicine yeah there's this 1 comic (won't go into details) but when a predator clan leader saw that one of his members had the skull of a kid as a trophy he went berserk and slaughter him as well as other members for it. Lol
also as a native american it was awesome to see the feral predator go up against the best hunters in history. also some of the bravest warriors. Tansi 💪🏽
"Oh gosh, what a setting!"
I'm so lucky to call this place home!
🤘🤘🤘
Amber Midthunder has been in several movies, but those of us who loved FX's "Legion" remember her best as Kerry Loudermilk, the badass warrior twin to Bill Irwin. Great reaction, fellows!
I loved this movie. The acting, cinematography, sound design... all top tier.
From what I've heard, this is supposed to be the first time Predators have been on earth, that's why it was attacking everything that appeared to be a threat to find the strongest being. Had no experience with any living creature on earth. I also think the predators dropped on earth are juveniles and much like Naru, this is their big fight to be recognized as a warrior. So Naru is the threat that made the predators think we're one of the strongest "prey" to keep coming back.
Juvenile rookie or not, seemed like it fought based off instincts which mean they were extremely trained before tossed out to survive alone
"From what I've heard, this is supposed to be the first time Predators have been on earth"...this makes it sound like Predators as a species haven't been to Earth before. Or are you saying this one specific Predator? I don't know if AvP is canon or not, but the Mayans, etc were older than the time we're shown in this movie.
Love this movie!
I gave this 8/10!
They premiered the movie at San Diego Comic Con and the audience loved it!
They gave it a 10 minute standing ovation.
That's awesome! I didn't know they.
Well deserved. I know I would've
This was by far the best reaction on RUclips to this. The actress was also in Legion (also on Hulu). A Marvel series that people slept on.
Legion was amazing. Weird but amazing.
@@MsSmokeandmirrors I was so glad it had an actual ending and not just cancelled.
I agree best reaction
She was also in the movie The Ice Road with Liam Neeson.
She was also in the TV show Roswell: New Mexico
Man, for me this movie was phenominal. The visuals, the soundtrack, the acting, the new take on the Predator, the action, and I loved just about everything in this movie. This is hands down my favorite in the series and easily my favorite movie of the year. It is a shame it wasn't in theaters because it deserved to be seen on a big screen. Glad you guys liked it though!
The pacing was phenomenal as well. There was not a single minute that was wasted. They absolutely knocked it out of the park.
Awesome reaction! One thing though, Jean-Claude Van Damme was NOT in the Predator suits. He was originally cast for it, back when the Predator had a totally different design. But because of issues he had with how hot it was, and them not liking the design, the roll was recast to someone much larger. Kevin Peter Hall who was 7'2, played the Predator in both 1 and 2.
The whole food chain vs tribal hierarchy situation was also done well... Predator/prey, leader/follower, progress/past... A parfait of themes. Really loved this movie. I really hope Amber Midthunder and Dakota Beavers get all the roles. They were both outstanding.
my fav part is the climax of her fight with the predator begins with “i’m smarter than a beaver” and the final blow and fight came at an old beaver damn
It's a nice attention to detail that because this predator isn't as armored it takes more damage, but it's also faster, more agile, and more capable in close quarters since it isn't weighed down as much by armor.
Little fun fact about what you said about him: JCVD was not in the Predator suit. He was when the predator didn't look like a predator and they were still figuring out what the monster would look like but the original design didn't work. It's still disputed between McTiernan and JCVD that either they fired him because he wanted to do some "karate" moves in the suit that they didn't like or if It was because they reworked the whole Predator look to a point that JCVD would not be the right person to be in that suit.
But in the film we've all seen, that's at (almost) no point Van Damme in the suit but Kevin Peter Hall.
Thanks for your videos, I love watching your reactions!
I had no idea this film was a Predator prequel, had only heard about the controversy sorrounding it. Now that I have watched it with you guys, I think the concept was awesome. I never would've thought to go even further back in time with this franchise (which I think usually moves forward to the future especially with aliens) but it totaly makes sense. I think the lead character definitely develops throughout the movie, not getting everything right from the start but learning and improving, which makes it totally well earned by the end. Love her bond with her brother which adds to us rooting for her.
the premise of this movie is brilliant. like iconic movie monsters at different points throughout history yes please. xenomorph in ancient egypt next lmao
@rickking228if I remember correctly- the use of the mc being female Native American doing task/jobs that they didn’t do such as hunt
I love this reaction vid, Appleton's comment about why the buffalo herd was killed off is the ONLY one I've seen so far about the accurate Native American history. That comment alone made me explore this channel more. Kudos!
I looooove this movie. I thought it was fantastic. What I enjoyed about the time piece of this movie was although the predator was more advanced than the humans in this time, it still had a kind of archaic element compared to the predators we've been used to especially with that skull helmet. Plus plus to the Easter eggs, our female protagonist and the native American cast. Would have loved to have seen this in theater.
11 min and I already love this reaction. So many male reactions for this movie failed to see the point and it was ironic. She was underestimated and that's how she survived, while the men ignored her warnings. I paused it after the Billy comment, because Billy has the same medicine pouch around his neck as Naru. I think he hunted with those tools, because his people had to evolve for centuries like we have. Darts to lasers.
Very nice reaction.
They upgraded their tech after this encounter as they can see what happens out of the helmets. Modern yautjas use lasers for it can just fire on one direction and blast the enemy and it can't be redirected to hurt the user.
Fun dog fact: the dog playing Sarii was a shelter dog who had been adopted and returned a couple times and had NO prior training. Her adopters happened to be entertainment industry people. What a good girl and such a happy adoption story!!
Loved this movie when it first came out, and loved this reaction! Fun fact, the Predator's shield and the tomahawk that Naru can recall were both inspired by weapons from God of War (2018).
i enjoyed this movie way more than i thought i was, the cinematography was beautiful and the storyline was great, loved the reaction!
Even though I enjoy a lot of your typical "guy movies", I've actually never seen the original. The scenery, Native American plot with a strong female lead really brought interest to me. I really enjoyed it. Normally, I refuse to watch movies with a dog as a "main character" because I always end up crying. I'm w/ you guys. A huge thanks to HULU for knowing that your audience always wants the dog protected, at all costs! Good movie, great reaction 👍
I LOVE the way they made THIS Predator's weapons more primitive than the weapons on the Predator in the 1st movie.
A couple of things: when she was confronting the Lion in the tree, she was distracted by a sound in the sky or she may have fared better. Also, this was almost 300 yrs before the Original movie, so his weapons and armor ( lack of) would be primitive. I don’t think the Predator can distinguish between male or female as much as just wether or not they have a weapon and size, that would consider them a threat.Absolutely terrific movie, I think it’s ten times better than the Original for sure.I give this a 5/5 without hesitation.
Considering theyre still flying with insane tech, I'd say it's more a case of this guy just being a newbie. He's tribal, inexperienced, and small, relatively speaking. He gets dropped on his initiation hunt by his clan with no knowledge, and loses, which mirrors Naru's conflict.
@@erikjohnson3859 Yep. The director confirmed this Predator was a rookie. This was his debut "hunt," which explains why, despite how formidable and badass he was, he made mistakes that ultimately cost him his life.
@@tyleru96 mistakes or not, the feral predator killed plenty, he was that fast to even strike a snake before it bits him. Which idk how the predators can survive against snake venom but I doubt they'll have any medicine for it no matter how good their blue medicine thing.
Predator's do have the plasma caster at this point they've had it for a long time and predators can tell the difference between male and female but they are only allowed to hunt females that have a weapon or have attacked them. They are also forbidden from harming females that are pregnant or defending there children.
IIRC Predators don't generally hunt women and children.
My fav since the original. Gotta remember that the predator is still the predator but his technology was 300 years earlier so not as advanced tech as the one Arnold faced. This was the actresses first role. Plus the music and the scenery were amazing. Everything pretty much worked really well. Thought this prequel approach was great. Loved the skull headpiece. Wicked.
Amber Midthunder has been in many films and tv shows. I don’t know where you heard this was her first role.
@@zussy101 Sorry. I thought I had heard that in a breakdown of the cast. If the info was inaccurate I meant no harm. She was great and carried a tough role with real credibility. Thanks for the heads up.
Absolutely loved this movie, I would love to see a Predator movie set in ancient Japan, predator vs samurai, hell yeah!!
In Predators, the Yakuza assassin found an ancient samurai sword. With 300 years of hunts, the possibilities are endless.
The original is a classic. This one is the best one since. Bloody loved this one. The scenery, the music, the cast, the story.... Might just be my favourite. Great reaction, guys x
some observation on this movie:
the snake can see and fought back...
the wolf thinks the predator is a threat so the wolf attacks instinctively...which shows the predator can be injured..
the bear can fight brute strength and shows it can be killed...
a group of people can do teamwork like setting up traps or outsmart it...
they think the predator is unstoppable but what is shown is that it can be defeated...
the predator is somewhat underestimating the inhabitants that it sees the woman somewhat not a threat and ignores her somehow until she outsmarted the predator at the end.
I love this movie, such good tension and letting the Predators reveal be a slow burn was so good. Apparently, during Taabe's(the brother) fight with the Predator, when it goes invisible, what he yells is basically cheater. Which is true, it's invisibility is such a huge advantage. Such an awesome movie and great reaction as always guys.
Gotta be honest, I absolutely loved this movie. L Ike how it shows the predator leveling up in his prey, first the snake, then the wolf, then the bear and now the humans. It makes it seem like the predator is trying to find the best match on the planet.
Also I don’t get when people complain about how the predator died by his own weapon. Like that was a badass fight and she outsmarted him tactically.
Although I love the orginal, nostalgia or not you have to admit that dropping a lot on the predator was pretty anticlimactic
Totally agree, this movie was incredible and shows what this franchise is capable of
Plus the dude was shot in the back of his head he definitely had brain damage and that could explain why he was more sluggish in that fight as well.
As you picked up and commented at the end, you can see that this Predator intentionally selects both its fighting style, and weapon choice to match the style of the "prey" it's hunting. For the wolf that is quick on the chase and has sharp fangs, the Predator squats low and uses its arm blades - challenging the wolf's speed and quickness head to head (as is the reason he even squats low to remove his natural height advantage). Against the grizzly, he purposely goes power to power to try and out-wrestle a bear in a literal bear hug! Against the people he shifts to projectiles, spears, nets and even bait with area of effect traps (mimicking the trappers baited area surrounded by animal traps), after they display that level against him! It's so cool!
That's the thing with the predator to combat all kinds of life forms with the weaponry they carry. They carry a multitude of weaponry
i was laughing so hard at the part of those 3 guys trying to loading their muskets again lol
I love that the call-backs weren't forced, or didn't feel forced to me. I love that it returns to the survival thriller roots. I love that it settles a question that non canon comics tried to answer before. Rarely do I encounter a film that just feels so good that it's hard to nitpick, intentionally seeking problems. There are a few, but so small that they don't really impact the story. So close to a perfect film it can be tasted.
EDIT: Yautja hunt for breeding rights as well as coming of age, their society is matriarchal after all. They can distinguish between male and female, they won't kill a pregnant woman or a child intentionally. Even armed, they see them as less of a threat, unless it's a Yautja female! The films are great but the books and canon graphic novels do a great job of expanding on a rich foundation of lore.
I’ve only seen the first predator movie and this one. My boyfriend is a huge fan though, He explained it as the predator won’t attack a pray that is defenseless. So no weapon, no kill. Not sure if her being a female made a difference.
And I doubt it'll go after prey that runs away that also hasn't shown aggression or has any weapons at all.
I love the scene with the grizzly. If that bear hadn’t quit when it did I think this movie would have been over.
These are real fans of the franchise who understand the care that was taken with this movie. Well done!
I was thinking Scorpion when she was flinging that axe around ^^ Overall an amazing film, enjoyed very much!
People complaining that a scrawny girl shouldn’t be able to beat the Predator with rocks and sticks forget that Arnold wasn’t able to out-punch it, either. He had to “go native” and start thinking like a primitive hunter not a modern soldier. Dude spent the whole movie working up to the level that every character in Prey is starting at.
If you notice, In the first movie Billy has the same pouch she has around her neck, so maybe he’s a descendant of her. Also keep in mind that this is a prequel set 300 years before the first film and it might be a different species of predator, that’s why it has primitive weapons.
Remember, the predator of 1987 had over 250 years of weapons-tech development/upgrade evolution over this film's predator. The weapons used by _this_ predator would be laughable antiques to the high-tech predator Dutch fought. You can see some of the ancestors of the weaps used by the later predator tho. The helmet-targeted gun shot bolts rather than energy, and it was held - not shoulder mounted as the system it had evolved into by '87. The cut-thru-anything shield became the flying razor-disc Murtaugh faced. Hope that made sense, hehe :) Another crazy thing - if that be the case - is that the predator's civilization already had interstellar travel and cloaking tech well before _1719._
Great reaction like always, guys! :)
Great reaction and review, guys! It was fun seeing your reactions to this movie. I'm Native American (Navajo) and I've been a huge Predator fan ever since I saw the first one as a little girl. I was so happy with this film!
I loved it! Amber did an excellent job acting and the story is inspiring. Also the director was excellent too. Must watch.
Awesome reaction. This was so much fun watching with you guys.
Much appreciated 🤙
We didn’t get our “get to the choppa!!” Moment. But thanks to you guys, I was able to understand a lot of the call backs even though I’ve seen all the movies. This movie was really good for being a prequel developed by Hulu no less. Goes to show that with a well written story and execution, you can have a great movie. It would’ve done great in theaters.
Well we did get "If it bleeds, we can kill it"
How would that happen helicopters weren’t made until 1907😂
I watched an interview with Dan Trachtenberg where he stated that at one point they were thinking of naming one of the horses Chopper just so they could get the line, but in the end they decided against it.
@@BookwyrmEDS I think something so obviously cheesy would have ruined the whole movie for me, I'm glad the call backs they did use were subtle and fit seamlessly into the storyline.
Got food ready for another Great Reaction As Always, Practical Over CGI i Forgot that saying "Nothings better than the real thing" Hope The industry keeps this goin 🔥
This was a good movie man. I think that this is the predators first big hunt, they have it mirror Nauru throughout the movie. The movie was smart and it almost anticipated how we would expect another bad predator movie with callbacks that miss directed us. It’s also very efficient in the sense what they showed us and the dialogue coming back, almost everything that she said or did came back at the end of the movie down to the beaver stuck between the two rocks and taking its its leg off.
I also wanna save that some of the special effects weren’t great but that’s the price we had to pay to get this movie. I think that if it was a theatrical release with a much larger budget we wouldn’t get the story. The investors would demand something grander and because it’s their movie they would have too much to say so.
This is definitely the second best predator movie and may be a better movie than the first one but the first one is the best because they were starting from scratch and had to create the predator universe.
i like to see the story they teased with the art, more predator ships coming, i hope they survive that encounter to
As an Ojibwé ,We still pick medicine; my Uncle used to do this.it is still used for the affects of chemo therapy and we still thank the animal for giving it's life. My older brother used to take me hunting.🙂and there are /were woman warriors. Some of us still wear medicine pouches.
The females in the Predator species (Yautja) actually more dangerous than the males, bigger too. So if anything, the Predator would be wary hunting a female target 😂 But I guess the reason why Naru wasn't considered target because she hasn't prove herself as a warrior, not until the final act. Note that the Predator only hunted other *predators*, aka lethal targets. He also had to match the quarry, weapon for weapon, according to their hunting ritual law.
I hope with the sucess of this movie, Disney will do more of these and put them in theaters. Would have been awesome to see this in a cinema.
The Predator in this is lower tech than the ones in the other movies because they evolve based on their battles. So in the first movie, they are already way more advanced than they are in this one. This movie is set in the 1700s, and the first movie was in the 1900s. Love your reviews and your content! Don't ever stop.
The girl in the original was never armed. The one time she tried to pick up a gun arnold kicked it out of her hands because he had figured out the threat aspect.
I just watched this for the first time last night and was excited to see you had a reaction. Never seen the original movies but I might have to check them out now because I enjoyed this one a lot.
The lead actress has been in two previous roles to my knowledge. She was in legion and the new Roswell, New Mexico series!
Y’all won me over with “The Program” poster in the background. Love the reaction fellas. Team chemistry works well. Keep it going!
Haha that's awesome. Thank you for the kind words, we appreciate it 🤙
Amber Midthunder was in the Fox/Marvel series Legion, the Roswell tv reboot. She’s a great actress, this was her first lead role.
I think if AVP is canon, then the predators try to level the playing field by choosing "lesser" equipment since they're shown using plasma canons in the AVP "flashback" set 10,000 years ago. If AVP is NOT canon, then I'd happily say the bolt gun is just the predecessor to the plasma canon. Either way I'm happy with it.
I'd never seen a Predator movie before I watched this one, which I only came to because of Amber Midthunder. It was awesome! She did such a brilliant job. You can also watch the movie dubbed in Comanche which really adds to the vibe IMO.
Oh man loved your guys reaction this has to be the best redemption since the last horrible The Predator movie. There's a theory to the predators weapons, they say that when they start out they are given limited weapons and as they progress through hunts there given more advanced tools and weapons which would explain in AVP they didn't have plasma cannons at first
I was so pleasantly surprised by this movie. I loved the acting and I love the story.
Agreed. Very nice surprise here. They left the ending up open for a sequel too in the credits. Would be interesting to see one more.
@@BaddMedicine I think that this franchise really has potential to turn to almost a Deadliest Warriors kinda thing. And the best part is that everybody can get behind the predator because he's green and has a mouth that could put Black and Decker outta business!!! lol
Yuatja, I believe is pronounced Yeow-Tja. As we all know there are different classes and subclasses. This is a Feral Class. they preferred the fight more than stealth kills. probably why it chose to wrestle a whole bear, hand to hand with the Native Warriors, with minimal weaponary and tech. Im so glad you caught on the more primative type of predator. Predators weapons/tech evolved based on when and where they hunted. its safe to say that since this Yuatja had a shield, a rail weapon simular to arrows or cross bows, that the species has been to Earth before this; thats why in 1987s Predator we get a hunter class with a plasma cannon. Also this Yuatja couldve been a subclass called Young Bloods, untestested, it may have been its first hunt. it may have also been being watched by a Blooded Predator. hence why it was dropped off rather than landing its own ship..so many theories lol
i also liked no subtitles for the french trappers. even though we heard english i think it was assumed the Comanche were speaking their native tongue, so she couldnt understand the trappers, why should we be able to, right?
lastly, the word Tabai shouted when he did work on the Yautja and it cloaks is rougly translated to, "cheater.."
such a breath of fresh air to the franchise...
i believe Jean Claude was only the Predator for a bit. he quit because he was over heating. the director and Arnold wanted the predator to make him look small. enter Kevin Peter Hall, 7'2". lol.
I know its a little late in the game for this, but the orange flower that Naru calls "Orange totsiyaa" is very real. It is more properly known in modern parlance as the Calendula flower. It has been used as not only a medicinal plant but as a cooking herb for centuries. in addition to breaking fevers and slowing blood flow, its also a pretty good disinfectant. Too much of it can have a narcotic effect, making one drowsy and lethargic.
I was worried they wouldn’t give Amber MidThunder(Naru) a good Strong women role and the men would always save her. But they surprised me and I love how she acted throughout everything. Also the Native American culture in this movie was so spot on and good. A great movie!!!
The brother was a bad ass. This movie was amazing. She was an awesome character. Loved this movie. 3rd favorite for me. But I'm a huge fan of AvP 1 as well. And the original is ultimately the best as the 1st ever. :)
Loved the direction they took this franchise in. I’m sensing Anthology with future stories!
Love the reaction and yall trying to solve all the call backs and not discrediting it. Bad ass! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Def Subbing.
Much appreciated 🙏 thank you!
Yes sir! Been waiting for this one fellas...
Your channel is dope!. Prey was phenomenal! One of the best films of the year. And it will transcend decades 🌝👍🏾👍🏾
Much appreciated Todd 🤙
This movie was visually stunning and was very respectful to the Comanche people. I thought Naru was so compelling and this is actually better to me than the original. Of course I love Predator but it’s because it was so different than anything else I’d seen at the time. This one is a film- Predator is a fun popcorn movie. 4.5/5
Well said here🤙
First superb editing , 2nd great reaction
Much appreciated 🤙 thank you.
Best Predator movie since original
GUYS I MET U JUST RECENTLY BUT AM HUGE FAN NOW OF YOUR REACTIONS.... U GUYS ARE THE BEST
Glad you found us! Hope you enjoy this one! Much appreciated.
Great reaction guys!
For the longest time I've wanted to see a young Yautja rise up from the start, join a clan. Keep doing his thing while rising through the ranks. In my story I'd have his original clan leader be taken out by an alien queen and he gets facehugged and then we have a Predalien. He starts his own clan including a human and some others creatures. Thinking the human might have been someone who kills a clan member of his, and later when he becomes a leader, that human joins.
Jcvd wasn't in the suit, he was in the suit they were going to use before they settled on the costume they used. Kevin Peter Hall was the guy in the suit for the movie, fun fact, he is one of the pilots in the helicopter.
This was some good shit , we now have a solid Prequel, keep them comming!
For his 2nd big budget film. Dan Trachtenberg did a phenomenal job as director for this film.
The brother yells “ cheater “ when it goes invisible when the bro was wining lol
Cool! Great reaction! 😎
i dont care about the franchise. i think the first one is a top tier movie for its time. i was pleasently surprised with this one. i would rate it 7,5 out of 10. my only real gripe with the movie was, that the predator apperantly didnt understand, how some of his gadgets work.
I think this might have been this Predator's first hunt too, helping to explain its unfamiliarity with some tech. That or the laser-guided bolt thrower was new.
Think about it. Most big-game hunters in our society also don't really understand how most of their techniques and equipment actually operates. They have a very general comprehension of its purpose and operation, and that's about it.
Granted, the "best" hunters don't really have that issue, but this guy pretty clearly didn't know what was up with Earth. At the very least, this one specifically has never been to our planet before. He might've been a relatively new hunter overall. Which would also explain why he's not packing EVERYTHING we've seen Predators have before. He hasn't earned any of it yet (and now never will).
This is the first time for Predators on earth. They mention that in the extras/featurettes. So he was clueless about the planet hence why he was "studying" and surveying the environment by taking out multiple dangerous animals.
Predator (1985) has been a favorite of mine since I was young. Jesse Ventura’s character will always be a favorite, and the only sequel I like equally is Predators (2010). Prey was a fantastic addition to the saga and showed the “primitive” version of the predator aliens. His helmet and weaponry was less advanced than the aliens in the future films. Great reaction video!!
So I'm a big nerd about Yautjas (that's the Predator species) and they have like an honor code. They won't attack sick, pregnant or unarmed things because it's not sporting. Mind you, if they prove to be a threat despite those, they still might kill them. In one iteration about Yautja, they actually run on a Matriarchy and one of the reasons they hunt is to impress the females of the species. The females actually tend to be larger and more aggressive than the males. 😊
_Jean Claude Van Damme_ tested the suite but didn’t play *Predator* roll because he did not like the fact that his face would not be showing, he was a big movie star in the 80s and 90s and that wasn't an option, so he turned down the role. In the end *Kevin Peter Hall* play the roll as the Predator.
I've been saying it to my boys, give us a good story with on location shots and more about Native American's history and good cast. Keep it with good story, great locations, good cast...keep it simple with action and we will show up!!
The predator was also 3-400 years older than the current one. Loved this movie and rate it 5. Thoroughly enjoyed your reactions as well.
the action sequences, especially the one with the predator vs the french and the camp site one shot, were fucking amazing
Finally, someone who agrees with me that Predators is actually a pretty good Predator film ❤️
But also, hell yeah, Prey is too damn good, can't wait for the sequel!!
