"Predator films are supposed to be ridiculous and I didn’t think Prey was a bad film but it would have been better without the film makers ticking every boring social justice box that Hollywood has deemed absolutely essential these days. Men bad - ✅ White men really bad - ✅ Women strong - ✅ Non-white women really wise and strong - ✅. It’s not that any of these things can’t be true, it is the dull predictability with which they are portrayed in an industry that is supposed to be creative, and the sanctimonious, self-congratulatory tone of the film industry who in reality are egotistical narcissists using modern left wing politicians to cleanse their souls."

"Mr Anon 1:09 Tue Aug 23 'most of the men die fighting it giving her time to run away,' They literally tied her to a tree and used her for bait. 'Incel'? You can't make a point without some sort of sexual fantasy abuse,can you?"

"The problem is in Hollywood now is they are so desperate to seem.progressive and make such wonderful perfect female characters (or sinply replace existing I.P. with a race or gender swap) that even if a decent female character did surface (ie ripley or conner) they've made such a rod for their own back with a string of Mary sue characters that are already perfect and only struggle they have is to realise how perfect they are, decent female characters will now get lost as they won't be able to separate the 2 The new crop of Mary sues can't be seen to be weaker than a man nor be saved by nor taught by men. The men can not be seen to be better than them. Their character arcs are more upward trajectories. With only the patriarchy standing in their way. Which makes it hard to have a credible male villain if they will never struggle to overcome them. This intern has thr by product of making the female characters less credible. Take marvel for example. The whole of phase 4 (especially the tv shows) are female characters that are essentially replacing the original male counterpart being instantly better and belittling them. Loki, hawkeye, thor, she hulk etc. Feige has announced he wants more women characters than male ones and now those new ones will instantly reduce their potential credit as people are aware of this and wondering if they're just shoe-horming in female characters for the sake of diversity. All this in an attempt to cater for the woke crowd that wouldn't watch the property anyway whilst simultaneously driving away their natural audience who are sick of getting preached to and concerned by the staggering drop in quality of product. The prey character isn't a Mary sue, struggles with multiple aspects throughout the film and the only reason she survives so long is the predator ignores her twice as a non threat. All the males are shown as pigs (save for the translator and her brother... and even he takes credit for her work) . The ending where his own target system kills him is fucking stupid by the way. My issue with prey was that it's basically the same as predator 1 (and to some degree predators (the one on the alien planet)). I place it below the original, predator 2 (which I like) and probably below even a picture (female protagonist in that one). Similar to but above predators (which I was just bored by) but way above avp2 and thr predator (looking for autism... really??) Predator, like Terminator and alien franchise are busted flushes. There's not much they can do and should let all 3 franchises just die."

"Mr Anon I was commenting from memory on a film I'd watched a day or two previously. I wasn't desperately watching for one line that could save me from the embarrassment of having commented on a film I hadn't even watched yet. So, apart from one line, which his later actions completely repudiate, every single male character is evil or oppressive, including the brother."

"who cares what it was before or after, you literally said ""and not a single brave said, 'Let's give her a chance, she's actually quite good' when that exact thing happens but of course what you meant is an ever changing landscape which will always prove you right till you wear your opponent out through boredom"

"Lee Trundle I've never watched a Predator film before, so I have no idea. But your description seems very precise, so I'm sure it would have been a jolly good trap if that film hadn't been made 35 years ago."

"Do you find the original one woke, Surface? I only ask because the two who are the first to die are the only members who are white natural-born US citizens. And their leader was an Austrian immigrant."

"Anon. That's before he sent her home and killed the lion (or whatever it was), taking all the the credit, without telling anyone she had fatally weakened it for him, right? I know it's tricky for you Anon, but do you understand that through the medium of storytelling in general and cinema in particular it s possible to say, 'all men are bad', without actually using the words, 'all men are bad'. As I said in my first post, I enjoyed it, but it was woke as fuck. Just because the woke is a bit more subtle than elsewhere doesn't mean it isn't woke. How's the transition coming along, hun?"

"I watched the Eiger Sanction on iPlayer yesterday. The BBC deemed it so unawake that it had to putt a warning on how un woke it was. ""Contains discriminatory language which some may find offensive."" Attracted me to it and I like Clint Eastwoord's 70s movies. Great climbing footage."

"Watch "" The Last Duel"" on Saturday. Obvious massive wokery going on but quite a satisfying film as it had a decent amount of sex and violence amongst the woke stuff. Kind of a film for all. The American actors felt wrong in a French tale though."

Council Scum 5:03 Mon Aug 22 Yeah I enjoyed that as well. Good on Cage to parody himself. 13 Lives is excellent.

Watched The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent on the plane last week and really enjoyed it. Just a film taking the piss out of itself and Nick Cage doing the same.

"Anon Every single male character was evil or an oppressor of women of some sort. Including her own brother. Every single one. Not a single Froggie said, 'Hey, let's not rape or kill her' and not a single brave said, 'Let's give her a chance, she's actually quite good' That's woke, buddy. It's the Patriarchy, innit? Silly virtue-signalling person."

"Prey was very good , ""woke"" where was it highlighting injustice .Girl was a tracker and a good one which was not uncommon in them days , I suppose Pochahontas is woke now by some damn pushy women and forced on us by Disney . The fact after every fight the Predator had which was quite a lot(The Bear fight was Great ), it was in pretty bad shape so not unrealistic she could win. It opens more Predator spin offs , how about one in south London , gets hooked on craft Ale and Weed as no one to fight , crush the odd idiot on a moped . They would have to come and rescue him and put him through Rehab ."

Anon. I haven’t yet seen Prey. And certainly not paying Disney for the privilege. My comments was a dig at Hollywood who hide behind a half decent writer (Cameron.) Piss on any IP it owns. Moan’s about failing revenue. (When 80% of your paying customers are 15-40 year old males.) Then has the gall to blame it on the same people who pay for it.! Disney/Fox couldn’t have thought too highly of it. By not giving it a theatrical release. I mean. It couldn’t have been worse than the last Predator movie.?
