Predator: Killer of Killers has been officially released! Formally announced just a couple of months ago, the new animated Predator film can now be watched on our TV screens. Directed by Prey‘s Dan Trachtenberg and Josh Wassung, with a script written by Micho Robert Rutare, and animation by The Third Floor, the film is an anthology telling three stories.
The first story tells a tale of a Viking raider guiding her young son on a bloody quest for revenge. The second is a ninja in feudal Japan who turns against his Samurai brother in a brutal battle for succession, and the last story is of a World War II pilot who takes to the sky to investigate an otherworldly threat to the Allied cause.
For those in the United States, you can find the film now on Hulu and Disney+, while international viewers can find Predator: Killer of Killers on Disney+.
Critic reactions have been very positive on the whole, praising the stories, violence, atmosphere while the animation style does get some getting used to.

As for the topic, the Feudal Japan segment was my favorite part, actually, the only part I liked in the film.
Really showed him...
Yep that's his name...

Predator scenes: Wolf's introduction, Wolf mourning his comrades, Wolf "erasing" the predator, wolf's mask with the flashing eyes, Wolf killing the warrior at the pool then disintegrating the bodies, and wolf vs predalien battle scene.
The part where the Aliens forget they have arms, legs or tails so wolf can pose with them, or the part where wolf destroys the power plant without killing any Aliens?
Howard is his family name?
So his brother is Dallas Howard.
UH? The human characters sucked? What about Ricky "literally the best thing to happen to the franchise" Howard?

Well I'll be doing a Predator marathon before watching Badlands.
I'll be skipping The Predator and the AVP movies for the sake of my sanity. I don't have a problem with the concept of AVP, its just in my opinion the movies weren't that good even if I did like AVPR (the Predator vs Alien scenes, the human characters sucked).
I'll give an another one of my headcanon so i can still use the Perry's Code of Honor systems: Maybe Jungle Hunter is more of a pragmatic hunter, he follows the code but just not religiously.
I know there was no Code of Honor in Predator 1 and it was sportsmanship. I think the code of honor could still be used maybe under some revisions.
On two occasions the Predator shoots at what it (at least thinks) is Dutch when Dutch is unarmed.
Maybe Jungle Hunter didn't realize it was Dutch or was in a state of panic, I mean at that point he was still covered in mud and JH couldn't quite see him, right? It wasn't until after Dutch was out of the water when JH pinned him with the wrist blades.
If Dutch was in indeed dilbertly attacked with the plasma cast....Shoulder Cannon while unarmed. I might go back and edit my fanfictions.
I think i saw it spelt as Plasma Castor on an old predator fan website, but maybe its spelt Plasma Caster? Shoulder Cannon, yeah I'll stick with Shoulder Cannon
@SiL Also I watched the original Predator movie enough times for it to be burned into my memory, thank you very much.
I know it's a misspelling but when you said "plasma castor" I just imagined Predators using some weird extraterrestrial beavers as weapons.
He wasn't cloaked during the last cat and mouse chase because Dutch broke the cloaking device. He was shooting at Dutch when he was unarmed before he jumped into the water.
You're allowed to have your head canon, but if it's based on forgetting things that happened in the movie, don't get upset when people point it out to you.
Dutch was unarmed at the end and the Predator was happy to beat him to death with his bare hands.
Again not 'honour' - just rules.
Lmfao!
I think their sense of honor differs from ours because they are an extraterrestrial, heck muslims and japanese have a different sense of honor to western sense of honor. So if honor is different amongst human cultures why wouldn't with aliens?
Like for an example in WWII, it was honorable for the Japanese to use their airplanes to kamakaze into American Aircraft carriers.
Well from my understanding if said person was carrying a gun, shooting them with their plasma castors while cloaked is fair game.
Maybe they think melee weapons are an honorable weapon while viewing guns as cowardly? This has been my headcanon since I was little.
Yautja honor might not be the same as human honor.
I don't think it really gels with the varying actions of the Predators we've seen on screen, myself. Maybe there's one tribe of them out there that are basically Perry Klingons or whatever, but it really doesn't click for me as the depiction of what their race is like.
So long as "Yautja" isn't explicitly referring to the Perry ruleset/honor code, I've softened on the name.
