I loved her character in Legion. I hope it's part of the Skulls cast.  8)

And technically they could cast her actual parents in the movie (although her Dad does more acting roles than her Mom).

Some of the FX's Legion cast being in Predator Skulls and some of them most likely being in FX's Alien?

It appears Kyle Strauts only started following Amber (at least liking) her posts this year, so the geiger counter is definitely going off with this one.

I still rather it be just called "Skulls", but that is definitely much better than Goose's "PREDASKULLS"  :laugh:

I'm only half joking in regards to the Discussing Film exclusive.  I follow them and they do break news which I'm sure does take time and sources.  I just wish media were required to provide a timestamp when they started their research/contact sources in regards to casting news.  What lead them to contact their sources in regards to a casting scoop?  Was it a IG post?  ;)

Technically I could have "broken" this news on May 19, 2021, 09:44:34 PM along with a well worded "Exclusive" article.

I hear ya. I was considering writing an article on it a couple of days ago but was weary of it being so speculative, catching on perhaps like wildfire, then ultimately being deemed incorrect. So I tried to confirm it with a source but hadn't heard back.

I'm glad if anyone else, Discussing Film breaks wide with this one, because they broke Skulls originally, a year before anyone knew it was a Predator film. :)

I've been watching some of Amber's acting and some of it has been cringey, some of it has been pretty decent, so we'll see how she fares in Skulls. I'm just putting my faith in Dan Trachtenberg here. Amber does make some wild facial reactions though.  :)

See to me, in that collection of scenes, everyone acting against Amber is the better actor (over Amber.)

But this is a job well done here by her though:



Either way, she's got a real nice screen presence.

To be fair in Legion the character's one who's never even experienced normal bodily functions so if the performance's strange it's meant to be.

Hope so! I watched some other vids non-Legion related and was getting that same type of performance - but I'm definitely rooting for her! :)

Perhaps Noah Hawley just cast her for the right role... in that case then... that's worrying.

Not convinced either. But acting's such a complex thing, depends on what the role is, what direction the director gives etc. I saw many actors being meh or even bad in some films, and being great in others.

Natalie is a good example. Wynonna Ryder and Keanu Reeves are probably good ones too.

I don't usually like bringing up politics, but the summary of this movie makes it out to be the typical "woke", virtue-signaling garbage that has increasingly  permeated the flophouse over the last several years. "Defying gender norms"!? GTFO.

Though I will attest to her being very easy on the eyes, I don't know enough about the actual actress herself or her acting abilities.. And that's a bad sign, I'm fairly certain she isn't cut out for this kind of role.

You can't go 5 minutes without someone bringing up politics these days.

I think woke is self-explanatory enough. I still think it's too early to judge.

We could have a very good film, or a very bad one, there is just not enough information as of right now to know if it leans towards good or bad.

The premise/setting is different (which I love), that's the one thing we are sure of.

It all depends on how it's handled I think. How well it's written. If the film's script is full of misogynist caricatures with an effort to step on one sex to uplift another, and begins feeling like a shallow lecture to the audience, it will go south fast unfortunately and be rejected by many males and females alike. But if the characters feel real and the story enveloping the Comanche culture and a woman trying to push past any gender roles feels organic and true to its core, I think audiences as a whole will embrace Kee as a protagonist. Hoping for the latter!  🤞

IMO I don't want to see a female Predator in this or implied in any way. Given it's a female protagonist going up against a Pred, having it female Vs female would really devalue the whole proving herself as a warrior.

I want the Pred to beat the crap out of her before she inevitably beats him.

It shows I wanted them to be clear about what they really meant rather than obfuscating it with drivel, the opposite of what you're saying.

Every movie doesn't have a social or political agenda. Some are made solely with the agenda to entertain.
They do, whether it's intentional or at the forefront or not. Your average 80s actioner, for example, operates under the idea that guns are good and that violence solves everything.

Are they trying to be deep or meaningful about it? Were the filmmakers even conscious about their beliefs dripping into their work? Of course not, in most cases. But the stories we tell and how we tell them are always going to be influenced by how we see and experience the world whether we try or not. It's inevitable.

Male empowerment is just as much a social comment as female empowerment, we've just come to accept it as the standard and everything else is "woke".

Yeah, I don't subscribe to a blanket statement of there being at least a subconscious social or political agenda on every piece of fiction put on film, something that would require a subscriber of this to manufacture imagery in every 80's & 90's B & C movie horror, monster, fantasy t&a schlock and drivel I've seen to produce some subconscious social or political agenda. Too many movies already have been thrust more meaning upon them than they were designed, where audiences and even sometimes the creators say - yeah, no, that's some crazy interpretation yo. But that's what it is, interpretation versus design. So I don't buy into a blanket subconscious social or political agenda on every piece of fiction put on celluloid. Yes we are a sum of our experiences, but making everything put to pen in this context to me is just putting a square peg in a round hole. It's overthinking to the highest degree.

Most of that c level dreck carries some pretty obvious, casual misogyny or racism, so no, we don't really need to force meaning or go spelunking to find examples.

Watched three videos of Amber doing press interviews for The Ice Road and Skulls hasn't come up.

JoBlo has reported on the same Amber-is-in-Skulls news that Discussing Film broke, so they know the deal over there, but yet only asked a general question of what is Amber doing next (where she only mentions Roswell). Maybe interviewers were not permitted to go there.

Yeah, I've been a little concerned about her acting abilities. Her performances seem uneven at the very least. :-\

Hopefully Dan can bring out the best in her.

Yeah, I do have some hope Dan will raise the bar for the cast based off the fact Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Goodman were so bloody good in 10 Cloverfield Lane.

I was convinced Shane Black was gonna hit a home run with The Predator though so my guessing game is questionable  ;D

If her characters story is essentially in it's simplest form - encounters predator/defeats predator in the finale then IMO it's not a good piece of casting. I just don't see her as a credible lead for this type of movie.

So I watched Amber in The Ice Road over this past weekend and I must say... she did a pretty decent job in it! Amber was good enough to calm my fears that she probably can deliver the goods in Skulls (if the script has goods to deliver.) So that is personally a relief to know.  :)

I watched it last night. She was OK. It's going to be down to Dan and the script as to what performance we see from her.

To be fair to goose, he's not assuming anything. Canon right now is saying it, that the Jungle Hunter & City Hunter are male.

But with that said, I'd love to see a female Predator on screen, like Cleo who bested Dutch!

Well right now per the novel "Predator: Stalking Shadows", and the "Predator: Hunting Grounds" video games, the females are:

And from the little we know, if they all are like the Cleopatra Predator, the Predator females are just as tough (or perhaps even tougher) than the males, seemingly more ruthless, direct and responsible for the scar on Dutch's face. She don't play!

Meaning, I do like the length difference being driven by sex.   :)

In regards to AvP dreads specifically though, my issue was never length, but rather they came across too stiff and ridged, resulting in (to me) an appearance of more costume fabricated versus organically grown.
