#predator is currently trending #12 on Twitter as of 11:25 AM Central Standard Time in the U.S. It seems to have gotten a lot of people's attention.

So is that a sword on the Predator's back?

An Elder's Sword?

At first, I thought it was the plama caster, but something about it seemed 'off' — it COULD be aiming downward at an angle, but then why the laser-sighting? If it's a sword, cool.

Thats it, I'm suckered in again! Love that promotional shot, sets a mood.

I didn't think the thing on the Predator's shoulder was anything other than a plasmacaster, I am interested in the ridge kind of effect at the top of its head though. Interesting mask design.

It's 100% not a plasmacaster. A sword or some kinda spear probably.

Zooming on the mask, it definitely has some decoration/asperities.

It would be a shame if they didn't release this in the theatres. Now that the fear of covid is dying down a bit. I mean they have to have some faith in the movie living up to some expectations to the original.
Title: Re: First Promotional Image and Logo Released for "Prey"
Post by: Clubroot on Nov 12, 2021, 05:52:54 PM
Looking at the promotional image makes me think that we are going to see some sort of sword fighting at the end of the movie. I mean once the technology fails the predator in its fight.

We all want it to be Greyback, but seriously I don't think we should get our hopes up too high. I doubt the people making this film care too much about nerdy Predator 2 lore and connections lol. But for real: I agree it would be awesome to see.

The predator needs to win. If you're a technologically and biologically superior race and you die hunting a primitive native human, you f**king suck and deserve to go to predator equivalent of hell.

If we pay attention to the color scheme of the promo art and logo, we see lots of grey, greyish browns tones, also dust. The mud from the 1st film also comes to mind, or stones or spears.  The new color scheme is somewhat a departure from the tropical greenish, red brown colors from the previous films. Can we expect the mud to make a comeback in this new film? or maybe the climate and weather play a role. #Teamsaquatch

I wonder how they'll handle language? I'd be down for all dialogue to be in the character's native language with subtitles, but I doubt a major studio release would allow that. This makes me assume there will be English speaking characters, and the protagonist will know English as well. The worst would be if she spoke English with an accent as a stand-in for her language.

I can not stress enough that fox tanked predator back with AVP. AVPR. Two thirds of predators and the predator.
Predator 2 is the last truly enjoyable one. If nimrod had more money and time i think that would have been a better film.

I honestly cannot wait! I personally believe that the streaming platform would most likely make the film more successful and I love the synopsis. If it were released in theatres, I honestly do believe it would be a box office bomb and then the Predator films would be even more dead. Back to basics!
Title: Re: First Promotional Image and Logo Released for Prey

This Hulu fiasco is a verry very very touchy subject which is basically an exercise in how the general public perceive the idea of buying into  streaming services to play their  just released theatrical content. I believe they are in a good position doing this as theaters in my region are still kind of empty and are not generating the  type of extra-economy (like foodand beverage) as they were thought to. So i think they made a good decision. if I can't go to the theatres and enjoy food and bev as i had before I would much rather invite my homies over for a pint at my place and stream the bitch on my big screen tv.

But then again, i never subscribed to streaming unless it were for a 30day trial period. So Hulu better make the trial period a reality as so far I only seen Amazon do it.

It says set 300 years ago now? But they also said earlier it was set before Europeans arrived in the new world, which was not 300 years ago. They also say it's the first time Predator came to earth so basically all of those stories from the past involving Predator (not that there were many stories set in the past) are now not canon, besides that and more importantly, now they have severely limited their story capacity, now they can only go as far back as 300 years ago in future movies, unless they retcon this one.

Hell yeah, really like that title! A nice way of having it call back to the original film without being super on the nose. And that artwork is nice, very moody and immediately lets you know the setting is going to be different this time.

I'm not really bothered about the streaming news since I've not gone to the cinema since the end of 2019 and can't imagine I will be any time soon. Plus we kinda knew this was going to be the case based on earlier word. Hell, if anything I'm happy I should be able to watch it in the comfort of my own home as soon as it's released (on Star in the UK I'd imagine) rather than having to track down an......alternate version before the Youtube thumbnails ruin it all.

Great to see it's finally out there in the public eye now. The hype is beginning to enhypen! ;D

Did people not see the end of Predator or get the whole theme about removing man's reliance on technology and using only wits and strategy to defeat a superior foe?
Did people NOT see the part where Billy, being a native american, was the only one that knew something was stalking them?
Although it may not be historically accurate, thematically the concept of this film is closer to the first than any movie so far: human using only knowledge and wits to outsmart a superior foe with knowledge gleaned from being a hunter and knowing and using their natural resources. In this case, we even have the "magic" native american sixth sense. Shoot, we might even get to see a predator use the trees again.
And go tell Ripley and Sarah Connor how woke this is. Two out of the trifecta of Alien/Predator/Terminator are built entirely around a female protagonist. Yes, John Connor is the savior, but he is ALWAYS motivated by the memory of his warrior mother.

Its just another anti-progressive non issue. The people who will complain about any "wokeness" in this movie would always find something to complain about.

I have a feeling this is actually Jungle Predator we're going to see. Could give a new spin on why Anna was not a target.

There are many scenarios in which both the protagonist and the Predator could live.

Having said that I'm okay with the elder not being in it.I'd love to see some references to the previous films but I'd also  love to see the movie stand on its own merits.

It's not a revolver. It matches up perfectly, tbh, even though I don't really want a backstory to a minor character.

Here's the official logline:

"Set in the world of the Comanche Nation 300 years ago, the action-thriller follows Naru, the skilled warrior who fiercely protects her tribe against a highly evolved alien predator."

300 years ago was 1720, and the Comanche was definitely dealing with Spanish Colonists at the time.

We talked about it a bit here: :)

To be fair, it could have been shot to death, but it's hard to hit a fast moving, invisible alien in the jungle, and you don't even know where or who or what's happening.

As for the other thing, it was first trapped by methods that required several large burly men to bend trees, and was finally beaten by that big-ass log (hehe) that Arnold Schwarzenegger was supposed to be straining to lift.

Dutch had the right training and experience, but without his size and strength, he never would've survived. In the end, it's what saved his life and won the fight.

Hope the predator finally gets a win this time. The oomans are 4-0 right now.

Right, it's a flintlock pistol.


What does everyone think of the possibility of retconning the backstory of the flint lock established in the comic 1718? Personally I wanted more out of that comic and if it retcons the history I'll be okay with that.

I like in this picture how the Predator is obscured in the mist, not standing front and centre like an idiot like most of the recent movie covers. I'm also hoping that it is a good sign for the movie: that we'll see a return to the wraith-like demon from the first film. Even though we know what they look like, having them hardly seen throughout the film is still important for the monster's identity.

I have a sneaky suspicion that this film will be a surprising success. Really digging the logo. Unlike The predator and Predators which i always had cold feet about, I don't with this one. I think it's because they are finally trying something fresh and new. I'm all for it. The franchise is in desperate need of a new injection of life. The revenant comparisons also have me excited as it's one of my favourite survival films and was beautifully shot. Im also glad that 20th century have finally got a grip on leaks. As it's those that hurt the last film, the script leaked, people on this site went to war, the studio interfered and what we got was even worse than what was in the script.

We need to stop that AvPgalaxy, it only hurts us and our baby in the end. As The predator showed. Have a bit of faith and go in blind. That's exactly what im doing this time.

Can only speak for myself but to my mind the comics have never been anything beyond a fun extra, they have no bearing on the established stories or what new stories can be told.

By a similar token, I'd prefer if this movie didn't try to tie into Greyback and the pistol. No need at all other than masturbatory fan-service.

I like in this picture how the Predator is obscured in the mist, not standing front and centre like an idiot like most of the recent movie covers.

Oh don't worry, they're saving that for later

#predator is currently trending #12 on Twitter as of 11:25 AM Central Standard Time in the U.S. It seems to have gotten a lot of people's attention.

Awesome!!!

So is that a sword on the Predator's back?

An Elder's Sword?

Does it look like Berserker Predator to anybody else ? I swear, I can almost see his trademark jaw

I think I can make out a skull looking face but the image is purposefully too vague to tell.

I'm more worried about those smooth, sloping shoulders. Where my trademark Predator repeating shell pattern at? Mostly I just don't want The Predator's generic sci Fi gear look again.

Really looking forward to seeing it out of the mist

Oh man, I agree. Please no written predator language on screen. Give me the clicks and body language from the end of Predator 2. Sprinkle in a tiny amount of mimicry from P1.

Im also glad that 20th century have finally got a grip on leaks. As it's those that hurt the last film, the script leaked, people on this site went to war, the studio interfered and what we got was even worse than what was in the script.

To be fair, the leaks didn't hurt the last film, the nature of the Black & Dekker original script did. But for fans of that original script, at least the Predator puppy pet, dna hybridization, and autism as the next step of evolution was still left intact.

I really liked "Skulls" name, but also enjoy the fact that they don't use "Predator" in this new title. "Prey" it's good too, and can make a new beginning for our so badly treated and beloved franchise.
It's a low-budget movie, released straight to streaming, and depending on what the script needs, it can be pretty bad at the end. There are still some points in this movie that make me apprehensive, but I'm hoping for the best, so that our favorite hunter will have more luck this time. It's been 31 years since Predator 2, the last really good movie in the franchise.

The words Skulls and Prey are in this moment enough for me to remain positive about this film. Stays true to what we love about Predator. None of that hybrid/DNA crap we got last time.

Point taken voodoo magic, although to be fair was the script itself not the leak? What im getting at is fox was terrible at keeping things away from us. Considering predator is has been on a downward spiral for awhile now, it's not impossible that fox was monitoring the site at the time and taking onboard the backlash. Which is why they interfered imo. Not taking away with how god awful black and dekkers script was. But it shouldn't of been released to the public to begin with. Im sure it would of been a bad film regardless, but studio interference made it even more so.   

I suppose im just not into this whole, fans spitting their dummies out and forcing studios hands to intervene. If a director isn't given the freedom to create his vision, then the art in film making is no more. I hope i make sense right now lol.

I would love for the elder in P2 to be in this but I'm not going to get my hopes up. Also the time line doesn't make sense.If it's 300 years ago and before "white men" then there's no way a greyback could have gotten a revolver from a First Nations tribe.

Here's the official logline:

"Set in the world of the Comanche Nation 300 years ago, the action-thriller follows Naru, the skilled warrior who fiercely protects her tribe against a highly evolved alien predator."

300 years ago was 1720, and the Comanche was definitely dealing with Spanish Colonists at the time.

I would expect the studio mostly took stock in reactions to their test screenings, general population versus the hardcore fans, but sure, it's absolutely possible they were weighing in our reactions as well. I'm just not convinced the studio sanctioned reshoots made a bad film worse. It seems to me, they may have made it more palatable and less damaging, less of a franchise killer. But alas, it's hard to say either way, without a finished alternate cut to compare it to. :)

Well it kind of feels too coincidental to me. You have a 1715 Spanish Flintlock with an Italian Name engraved...

And now they make a Predator movie taking place in the 1720s, where they picked a Native American tribe that dealt with Spanish Colonists - not Anglo, at a time where Italy had just recently beat back Spanish rule.

It's it though? Early reports tried to say the film was pre colonial and it looks like a small, native American cast. Obviously one of the characters could have already got the flintlock prior to the film, but i think it's far from a sure thing that gun is showing up.

Wouldn't be surprised if it did, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

progressives always use Alien and Terminator as an example of strong, interesting female characters - ironically proving the point that regardless of ideology and political views, there can be these interesting, strong female characters, loved and revered by all.
But the fact is so many female characters, pretty much since the beautifully written Ellen Ripley and Sarah Connor characters(of the original films) have been nothing but horrible, unbelievable, "woke", female in male role characters.
The premises for this movie is actually a great idea and a world I would love to see predator in, but if it's anything like the the last 2 sequels and the direction that modern cinema is going in, I just can't be excited.
That's just my opinion. Above all, I hope it's as great the first two.

Hmm. I'm not feeling snow.

But with the trees in the background looking like they have been through hell (leafless & branches broken or burnt) and all the falling ash, I thought perhaps a Predator self-detonated there. But it could be a fire or volcanic activity.

Too me, not so much bulky, but the Predator just generally looks a little too big in comparison to the 5 foot 5'' Amber Midthunder (even though she is crouching and possibly the ground level varies.) But I just personally chalk that up to being a promotional image.

Dane and Kyle appeared to be both doing costume work. Being the same height, it's quite possible they were both sharing Predator duties, but we do not have confirmation of that one way or another.

Who's to say we can't have both bear and sasquatch action right?

Now as for the Predator itself....idk maybe its one that is different on its own. The frame seems much wider and bulkier compared to Elder, especially the head. It could be the biomask Elder had switched up a few years later but everything else makes him much more bigger than Greyback. One thing for sure, I'm definitely reeled in and ready for this ride.

Just wished this was in theaters as well, but if Godzilla vs Kong did well in streaming, perhaps Prey can also be a sleeper hit too.

He pretty much confirmed himself when he posted a photo of the "Skulls" clapperboard on his Instagram and Twitter back in september when filming wrapped.

And he even posted the new title/logo 3 days ago and said "Grateful to be a part of this undertaking" on Instagram.

Yeah, not much of anything has been "confirmed", just social media posts later often yanked.

But Kyle sharing a pic of a "Skulls" clapboard liked by Amber Midthunder is still up and should hopefully tie anyone over.

Is Kyle Strauts left-handed? Because I assume the wristblades placement has to do with the dominant arm/side.

Also, why are some people thinking that Dane DiLiegro is playing the Yautja in the movie when Kyle Strauts is already confirmed to be in it?

where has anyone from production confirmed kyle? 

He pretty much confirmed himself when he posted a photo of the "Skulls" clapperboard on his Instagram and Twitter back in september when filming wrapped.

And he even posted the new title/logo 3 days ago and said "Grateful to be a part of this undertaking" on Instagram.

my point exactly. danes been tagged by both tom woodruff and jeff cutter (when he essentially announced amber and dakota as well) - if kyle was heavily involved, i feel as though he'd be tagged too. let's be honest here. if dane was playing the bear/sashquach or even did part of the predator duties, they wouldn't just tag him and not kyle.

Yeah, I personally wouldn't make assumptions either way solely based on social media tags. Who knows, perhaps there could even be two or more Predators featured...

All we know is Kyle has donned a Predator suit before, and Kyle's talent agency announced Kyle will be playing "the title character". But we'll have to wait and see how this all shakes out.

What they actually meant was he's playing a character called "John Prey".

Dane and Kyle appeared to be both doing costume work. Being the same height, it's quite possible they were both sharing Predator duties, but we do not have confirmation of that one way or another.

Ah I see, thank you!

Yeah you're not wrong. Honestly the Dane situation is kind of weird since we don't know what it's about. The way I see it, Dane is creature performer and a big Predator fan who's been trying to jump on board for a while now thanks to social media, he has been showing his desire to join the franchise strongly and respectfully and he made himself known to the actual people working on the movie. I don't think he's in the movie as the main Yautja, but you never know!

Interesting. Just seems to me that the filmmakers are acknowledging Dane's presence in this film and not Kyle's.

Im just trying to colour the situation here. Danes been tagged with people involved in production. Kyle hasn't. And if i'm not mistaken, someone in the other thread pointed out that Kyle was home before the film wrapped in Canada, while Dane was still there.

I guess we'll find out once the real cast gets announced.

Yes, based on what we can tell on social media, Kyle was on set a few weeks before Dane... but Dane left around one week after Kyle.

And when Kyle was at the airport, he wore a Predator pin. What does it all mean??? :laugh:

(https://i.ibb.co/yNrK5q2/IMG-20211115-150734.jpg)

Seriously, no one can figure out this for sure. Dane can absolutely be the star creature here. Absolutely. But are there multiple Predators? A single Predator shared by two people due to the dangerous location work? What about other creatures? We know there's at least one bear in the mix. How important are these bear(s) to this Revenant-like story? What about a Sasquatch?🤞  :laugh:

It's all just a fruitless pursuit to figure out right now. Personally, I don't have a horse in this race. I just want, whoever dons a Predator suit, Dane, Kyle, or both to do a great job, in a great suit where I can finally sing ADI's praises. That's my dream.  :)

Hulu hasn't had any major studio franchise films premiere on their platform so it's anyone's guess as to whether or not we'll see some sort of theatrical run or physical release with Prey. Obviously I'm hoping for both though.

In regards to a theatrical release, apparently in the U.S. at least, 20th Century Studios said the film would only be on Hulu.

(https://i.ibb.co/nn0jnH1/Screenshot-20211115-154004-Twitter.jpg)

And I doubt a film studio would announce it this way, if they really meant "In theaters and on Hulu". (Plus they would have likely positioned a theatrical release date by now.)

In regards to a physical media release, *sigh*... I don't know. I sure hope so! They may want to keep Predator fans (and Alien series fans) on the hook as a subscriber!

Dane for president. Who is dane? Not to be pessimistic but you all need to not throw us in a rabbit hole. Because you all just derailed this OP in a off topic here.

To set this straight, this yautja better be something that reboots the franchise here or else i'm going to ballsy here.

Oh yeah my bad, I'm the one who asked about Dane. Sorry!

Going back to the subject, I saw some people saying they noticed some kind of skull-like bio-mask when raising the contrast on the pic. I think I can see it too, maybe not really skull-like but it looks like it could be a creepy bio-mask, and a very unique one for sure.

But maybe it really is a skull inspired mask and that's why at one time the working title was "Skull" in the singular?

Yeah I don't have very high hopes for either unfortunately but as I said Hulu has never had the distribution rights to this high profile of a film so it's definitely uncharted waters for Hulu and it'll be interesting to see how they handle it. A limited theatrical run with a physical release timed around the holiday season is how I'd like to see it handled IMO.

derailed the topic? we're 8 pages into OP topic that the promo image dropped. we can talk about anything here regarding the film, i think.

who is portraying our predator is in fact an important topic. it's about time we were given a good quality predator!

I thought Ian Whyte was really great as Wolf in AVP R. He really was the best part of that film in my opinion. As far as Kyle Strauts and Dane I'm not familiar with there films.  If memory serves me right Kyle Strauts emissary predator was cut from The Predator right? I wonder what he could have brought to the table in that film. Do you guys think they'll make a good predator?

Yeah, some people even considered that a still, but it was too stylized. The smoke, the burnt trees, I just hope the film's cinematography captures that projected mood. I really do. But yeah, that might not even reflect how our Predator is going to look. Guess we'll see!
