Looks alright to me. The characters seem like a nice change from wisecracking tough guys. It's a bit distracting that they're all speaking modern English, but I guess something like this wasn't going to be made with all the dialogue subtitled.

It looks okay but I was hoping for something a bit more Apocalypto. The cinematography looks a bit flat and as you said, it seems like it's going to feel like modern Americans in fancy dress with bows and arrows. I don't think it's a binary choice between using subtitles or talking in flat modern English either, so that's disappointing if it reflects the full film. It would be a shame if this does turn out to be mediocre because it would be a waste of a good concept and probably the only thing worth doing with the predator idea after the original.

There's going to be a Comanche dub, which is neat:

A Comanche language version will also be available.

There's going to be a version dubbed in Comanche, I hear.

So, it's being dubbed I hear. Into Comanche. No reports thought.

Being called PREY, it needs to be the exact opposite of PREDATOR or I shall register a formal complaint to her majestron

Amber Midthunder was great in Legion so it will be interesting to see how she carries a film

Using her thunderous mid-section, I'd imagine.

Never mind humans hunting predators, aren't we due a film about humans hunting humans soon? There was The Hunt a few years ago, but that was chasing Trump supporters so it doesn't really count. And a Brazilian one which I won't name because spoilers, but it doesn't count because it was forring.

they should just not make predator films. even the first one is like, 2 stars tops. like a litmus test, because it is so obviously not a good movie, everyone just saw it when they were a kid or something. it's boring rubbish. sorry for being 2 real

They should do a remake of the first one but have a cgi Jimmy Saville blipping in and out of visibility.

I heard this was being dubbed into Don Ameche.


Also, because the end credits fit the Minder theme perfectly.

If you are reading this post it means that your favourite film of all time is Alien vs Predator: Requiem.

Povidone

Shhhiiiiit I love that film, has the following line which isn't meant to be satirical in the context of the film but ends up a wonderful précis of American logic:

"People are dying! We needs guns!"

I do hope this new film will have a version that is in Comanche. I suppose I'll just have to wait and see if there's any news on that.

This list seems extremely short, honestly, compared to the number of trashy low-budget movies which use it as a rough template.

Has a few more on it. Get yer human hunting fill here.

You've gotta remember that the first half of a predator film won't even have the predator in it, just it's results.
