Prey Catch All Thread

[Corporal Hicks]

As has become tradition a catch all thread for the smaller things to do with Skulls that might not warrant their own thread or taking over another thread.

Another "hindsight is 20/20" news - Kyle Strauts, Dan Trachtenberg, and Amber Midthunder have all recently started to follow Dakota Beavers from the band WesternBoy on IG.

WesternBoy IG post shows them in Alberta Canada and the video from Dakota says they will be off the map for a couple of months but have some exciting news coming soon.

Neither of the band members have any IMDb profiles so maybe this has something to do with music for the movie.  Unless they have some type of background/extra role.

**Just noticed the WesternBoy IG account recently started to follow Amber Midthunder's mom's casting agency -- https://www.instagram.com/midthundercasting/

Yeah, I noticed Dakota Beavers a while back too. Part of me thought he might be involved, part of me thought perhaps someone keeps recommending his music.

Some new photos from Strauts' IG stories



Seeing photos like this I wonder if we will see escape by river scenes like the one from The Revenant in Skulls

**Better yet what if Kee sets some type of trap that forces the Predator into the river.

Just bring on the Predator vs Bears action!

[Corporal Hicks]

Bear or mythic creature? You can only have one.

No contest for me - Mythic creature for sure! Eric's idea that the Predator is on Earth to hunt something else. And make it a Yeti!

Opening scene - Predator stalks (only seen through Predator vision) and kills bear.

When the Predator is fully revealed we see him wearing a mantle made of bear fur and decorated with the bears skull and bones.

I'd be game for that.

That reminds me we also desperately need a classic back in the day thermal vision, the one in The Predator was horrendous.

[Voodoo Magic]

So much to fix...

Yep, Pred's main vision should be that from P1/P2.  Don't fix what ain't broken.  Now the pred can cycle through other vision modes depending on the situation he is in like P2.

Here's a good question, does the Predator's technology advance? You could argue that the farther back we go we see the technology not as refined. Every film has made advancements in how the character carries or uses its arsenal like City Hunter has more gadgets but Fugitive's helmet is also a gun. So you could explain it as earlier versions of what we'd see later. The 5th film might have a shoulder canon like the AVP films. Kind of chunky, but since this is earlier in the timeline you wouldn't have a gun you could keep in your helmet or mount to an arm. So being a back to basics movie you could justify that because they haven't reached the point yet where they could do the things later films do.

I get what you're saying, but still they are already able to space travel to distant planets... So why wouldn't they be able to already have a weapon mounted on their wrist ?

It can be situational. Remember that City Hunter saw the footage of Jungle Hunter's hunt, studied it and prepared well for the hunt ahead. Jungle Hunter was very lightly equipped on his hunt and so CH must have figured out to be a bit more decked out on gear just in case for whatever he might encounter in LA. Didn't really save him, but it helped him last longer in the hunt. Even Wolf, Fugitive, and Upgrade had more decked out gear than their other counterparts due to it being a mission based scenario and not one of a real hunt.
