After P2 the heads became to big and silly looking. This is just bringing the head back to proportion

He wanted it sleeker, he's actually said this, forgive me I can't remember where though. 

QuoteThe remorseless hunter-killer from space also has a new look. 'I wanted to make sure the head was more proportional to the body,' says the director. 'This predator is much slimmer and less armoured than it's ever been. It's more 'creature'. It's still hulking and ferocious.'

Yes, Definitely smaller. Also those Dreds are super thin. Definitely a "subspecies"(aka the director wanted to make it their own.)

The more we're seeing of Feral, the more I like it.

It looks like it's wearing practically nothing as far as armour goes, with only the helmet being the major distinguishing feature; and it looks great! I've always liked the "Primitive Predator" idea/look, and this one's looking damn good!

Love that it's got a skull-like look, the exposed mandibles are great, and the lack of eyes makes it look really unique. Definitely a very cool mask!

With The Predator having the worst of both worlds with Unmasked Fugitive's gigantic head and Upgrade's itty bitty head

I also think the thinner dreads make feral's head look so small in comparison to say Jungle Hunter

Yeah, I remember what he said. The point is Predator have different proportions then human. Last two films made bubbleheads, but this one overdid it the other way around.

The Feral Predator definitely looks more primitive but still very intimidating. I like it!

I have no issue with the size of it's head, looks fine to me.

Still need to see the finer details before I make a full judgement.

Regarding the bubble head many mentioned, I will add my 2 cents about it:
I wouldn't call them too big, fugitive had his lower mandibles sag too low which made them cover the neck, which also made the illusion of the head just standing on shoulders making it look big, also his forehead/crest is at a different angle than the jungle hunter, his is more like wolf being more inclined towards front and making his head peak bigger. Also the more longer and "puffy" the dreads are, the more larger the head seams, add the never fully closing mouth which adds to size and we have the image of a big head.
But if U look at the scenes were he lays on the lab desk with his mouth closed (they used a different mild for the head, no animatronics) his head looks very proportional.
Wolf predator had the se problem, but his face anatomy was ok, only the crest angle being the selling point for "big head" look.
Berserker...yeah no excuse his head is too big, even for his towering phisique, I blame thea files being to long which made his face being too alongated.

Quote from: GreybackElder on Jul 07, 2022, 07:48:17 PMAre you implying that because it's like a David/Goliath matchup that she's guaranteed to win? I figured it was compared to that because of the size/strength difference. I wouldn't be so sure she wins because how would the pred race know to come back again and again if there was no communication?

Maybe something about this quote, included in the OP...

QuoteTrachtenberg says that usually in a Predator film, people team up to take down the Predator but in Prey, the story is solely about Amber Midthunder's character Naru beating the Predator by herself.

I disagree, but I don't think we'll truly know either way til we see it unmasked and in motion.

SiL

Also out of four Predator movies teaming up to beat the Predator only happens twice.

Unless everyone gets butchered pretty damn quick and most of the movie is basically the last act of Predator until the trappers show up. That would be cool.

Please don't let her be a Mary Sue, please 🙏

From P2. City Hunter has a major 5head going on.

Those shoe string fry dreads look terrible. You can also already see they are still jacking up the mandibles. They will never learn how to do them proper


Looks like ADI is reusing the garbage wrist gauntlet armor from The Predator as well as the feet from that predator.
