"The movie that broke Decker" The Predator released in 2018 after quite a long gap since the last entry in the series. With the return of Shane Black, an actor from the original movie, as writer and co-director of this entry, surely what made Predator great will... be completely ignored in favor of effectively making a parody movie and releasing it as if it was a serious entry.

"I am a sniper, just get me close." Yes, snipers are famous for getting close to their target.
And he still misses.
@@Nocturnalux Which actually made me laugh when I watched that scene. "Just get me close" he says and what happens next, he misses. 😂
He didn't even have a sniper rifle.
Ha beat me to the comment
This movie is a mess
"I'm a sniper, just get me close"
......that's not how that works.
I was hoping some one else would notice it
Unless your playing Call of Duty. The dumb asses.
That was when I laughed so loud, the neighbours heard it too.
LMAO.
He was doing a Leon with the knife: "the knife is the last weapon, the closer you get closeur to your targette the better you are"
Fun fact: the original name for predator, was actually hunter but they canged it because it sounded cooler
....BUT THAT HAS NO NEED FOR IT TO BE PART OF THE SCRIPT
"Olivia Munn convinced Shane Black to put her clothes back on" is the most hilarious and unappreciated roast in this video.
Predator: Alien hunting people in the jungle.
Predator 2: Alien hunting people in the concrete jungle.
AVP: Alien hunts other aliens on earth.
AVP:R: We don't talk about this one.
Predators:Aliens hunt humans on alien planet.
The Predator: Autism is the ultimate genetic evolution.
AVP:R wasn't too bad its gore was nice
@@samedoughnut7097 I could go on a long list what's wrong with that film
@@noahsark4528 so could I but I'm just saying the gore was nice
*The Predator: Alien hunts autism.
It's a weak excuse used as a plot device and quickly forgotten honestly I really wanted to like this film but it sucks honestly this film is worse then AvP R
Since the Predator wanted and kidnapped the boy at the end of the film, does that make it a "Child Predator"???
Definetly
Maybe he wanted to sink his mandibles into some juicy ass burgers!
I'll let myself out...
Maybe they're descended from Kevin Spacey
So they're Catholic now.....
-_-............ No just....no
Number one rule for Remakes, never NEVER remind me that I could watch a better Movie instead, because I will.
You know, I think the 'Predators taking genetic sample of different spieces' plot could semi-function if, instead of them using it to make themselves stronger, they're using it to create stronger prey to hunt.
Hell, I thought the Upgrade Predator was going to be a Bad Blood- a Predator who's broken the code of honor Yautja live by- and that the "Fugitive Predator" was hunting him for doing so. I mean, with how much emphasis Yautja place on hunting down other "abominations" such as Predaliens, it makes sense that a Predator who genetically alters himself would be deemed intolerable and hunted down relentlessly.
But... no, instead let's just retcon and shit all over the entire mythos of both the internal film series and the expanded universe. Goddammit, I hate this movie.
Holy shit….you a major problem with this movie. It’s ridiculous how often we overlook simple, practical, solutions.
Congratulations, you had a better idea than the people who were hired to come up with good ideas for the movie.
Lol that sounds like Rodriguez Predators script 😂 it’s so crazy it would’ve been
Creatures with surgically implanted weapons fight against other augmented creatures in a predator fight pit
There’s also a return of the Jedi speeder chase but with predators
Some one also eats part of a predator that he killed , I strongly remember him saying to somebody in the script who finds him eating it .. he says “ Shut up or I’ll make you eat the Dick “ 😂😂😂 imagine that in the cinema
"I'm a sniper, just get me close."
Uhm, that...that's the exact opposite of what snipers do o.O
Yeah, a brief rewrite could have fixed that. "I'm a sniper. Get me in sight." Would make more sense. (This whole movie could have been fixed by the hiring of a decent script doctor)
Not that I want to defend this absolute cringe worthy dumpster fire, but, snipers are not one trick ponies. They have multiple skills. Not just " shoots good at range".
Military snipers are skilled in field craft( living/ operating in the wilds), stealth, camo. They are also, generally, highly disciplined. They have to be in order to penetrate into enemy territory, usually with just them and a spotter, without being detected, sit on a target zone, sometimes for days, without moving or giving away their position , or even their existence.
That being stated, this line is still dumb. This movie is still dumb. This character does not come off as disciplined or very skilled. Nothing in this movie really makes sense.
Guns have a limited range. It's far, but not super far. Ergo, McKenna still needs to be within range to hit his target. Maybe that's what he meant?
@Adrijana Radosevic And if you continued reading my post you would see that I stated that the line( and movie) was still dumb.
@@daverobson3084 Shut up idiot Adrijana showed you what for
Every human being the comedy sidekick, the Predator being replaced with a CGI monster, the Predators being reduced to standard generic alien invaders rather than hunting for their culture. God this movie just rips away anything good about the franchise and makes it lame.
rodster6 I understand your opinion. But for the two Predators in this movie, since hybridization and invading planets isn’t part of the honor code and a suit that is designed to kill Predators, I’d say that these two Predators are Bad Blood Predators: one betrayed his clan to save his species, and the other is just an assassin. But that’s my theory, and despite that I’m a casual fan of Alien and Predator films, I didn’t like this movie despite the entertaining moments.
JurassicHero 3 original shot was there were infact two yautja working with government to hunt down the ultimate predator and aiding the assassin predator but.... they reshoot it and this what we got
Brandon Vortex I really like that orange shot, but then Shane Black decide not to and he ruined the whole movie.
@@prehistorichero2755
Bad bloods don't exist anymore. They just want autism.
Can't be a bad blood for breaking a nonexistent code of honor. There is nothing that can save Yautja anymore... or my bad "Teh Prwedators lololololol" they splice Gene's into themselves because they just wanna be stronker. Idk why they ever fight a creature 1v1 since they just want the spinal cord. I dont know why they consider the PredAlien an abomination since they want the Gene's and a PredAlien is half Xenomorph. This movie makes me actively angry, AND IM A FUCKING AVP APOLOGIST! I own all the Predator movies up to this one and now I hate them. Shane Black fucked this as bad as TLJ fucked Star Wars.
WHY IN THE HELL DOES HOLLYWEIRD HAVE TO RAPE AMAZING OLD IPS!?
@@dr.calibrations7984 Because they know they can't write anything better the old U.P.s so they write there shity ones in an attempt to destroy the old ones. That why when they make there shity movies look good in comparison.
What the hell does the word Georgia mean to a Predator?! well its enough to piss it off. LOL
The fact that they didn't think we wouldn't want to see an awesome action scene where a predator is captured alive, which would be much more difficult than just killing it, and instead spend so much time with the loonies really pisses me off
They didn't think that we wouldn't LITERALLY killed all my brain cells
This movie is unforgivable for how bad it screwed over the Predator lore. I was just as furious when I left the theater as well.
Seriously? Schwarzenegger was a special forces guy and strong as an ox, and he had a tough fight with the original predator. This one is a bigger and stronger update, and he cant deal with scientist Olivia Munn jumping on his back?
because vagina
MUH femitardation!
Difficult to fight with a sudden boner
theNewBee Reviews but she is not even hot.
Which means she is worthless actually.
Why is so much of the predator tech automatic now. Doesn't really make you a great hunter when your equipment does all the hunting for you. You don't get to brag about "Yeah, my helmet shot this guy without me having to do anything". Also, wouldn't the predator tech at least be programmed to check if the opponent is adequately armed before killing them? You know... like predators always do before going for the kill?
Oh, I forgot... Predators aren't all about the hunt anymore. It's all about DNA upgrades now. ...Wait, that still doesn't make sense. Why upgrade their bodies when their tech is so much more relevant to their success?
tuschman168 seriously, Predators are hunters with an honor code who take pride in their hunts. If what this movie’s saying is true then why wouldn’t they have killed Mike Harrigan (Danny Glover) at the end of Predator 2? Or Alexa Woods at the end of AVP, why would they leave them alive if they were super strong and capable humans who would’ve made excellent gene donors.
Oh yeah I forgot, this movie will reference Predator 2 and AVP, it’ll take plot elements from Predators, but it won’t honor the lore they established nor follow up on it in a satisfying way. Hell it disregards the lore of the entire franchise, including the extended universe. They didn’t even drop the actual name of the species, y’know the Yautja, despite having a perfect chance to include that part of the lore.
I appreciate that Shane Black wanted to do something different, but in my opinion when it comes to beloved franchises, new creators should build on top of already established lore instead of demolishing it.
also why would they sent profesional solider yautja to hunt down pret-alien in requiem, and calls them "Abomination" in AvP game? When they love to fuck up their DNA with other species, i guess that the "perfect organism" would be amazing addition to DNA cocktail.
So this movie is suposted to be first movie from its own universe - since all other yautjas are described absolutely different in other movies and books lore.
Maybe i would understand if yautjas from this one movie, are one sperated clan of "bad blood" like, who are disshnoroed by others, and try everything to survive beign hunted by other hunters - that would be understandable-ish, why they upgrade themself.
Jan Uebel Agreed but of course this movie does not adequately explain much of anything that matters. Almost everything has a shitty vague reason for happening.
@@histkontext Yeah like how the uber predators from 'Predators' seem to be hinted at being Bad Blood predators as well. I mean it wouldn't fix the movie, but it'd at least fix some of those massively glaring plotholes. And the Predator Killer suit is STUPID... Why the dreadlocks?! Also why the hella stupid ironman level microtech that seem to be able to hold two super railgun things and a fullbody suit... in what is literally the size of a 1.5 liter sodabottle.
I had to agree. Yautjas have a Code of Honor they have to follow, otherwise, they'll become Bad Bloods.
How I would have restructured this movie.
First off remove the pandering kid, and everything about the Predator race altering themselves genetically. Have the villain be Sterling K. Browns character still as a director of a project, however instead of only capturing and researching they are also attempting to replicate Predator technology with the ultimate result being the Predator Killer Armour, among other prototype weapons.
The Rouge predator that arrives is not acting against a his race but attempting to recover or destroy the technology captured by the humans to prevent them from advancing too quickly, with either result being they advance weapons to the point they blow up the world or become legitimate threat to the Predator race.
Along the way the Loonies who are actually just a team that was in the wrong place at the wrong time are captured by the agents then freed when the pred attempts to break in, with them both eventually teaming up to destroy the facility via a wrist bomb that was taken from a captured predator, and in the end they have to fight Sterling's character as he has donned a PK suit. the predator is injured leaving the humans to kill the villain.
The Predator leaves the planet for the camera to pan over to see a fleet of predator ships de-cloaking to show what would of happened if Rouge failed in his mission.
That's a way better idea for the movie
This is a much better idea and concept than this film. I'd actually would watch that film.
Id watch that hell ya
Deffo would watch your film
dude i would honestly watch that over this hot mess of a predator film
Four months later after his first reaction and Decker is still angry. And I don’t blame him.
Roughly two years later and I'M still mad about it too. Some shit just don't stop stinking mate.
@@hernehaugen6878 agreed. I’m still shocked it exists. I’m not too hopeful for Prey…
@@GDeNofa Oh gods no they're making a sequel?
@@hernehaugen6878 thankfully not a sequel to this trash but another predator movie.
@@GDeNofa Oh dear. I'll have to look into this then.
I feel like someone took a random script and threw predators in it

This was the 'Batman and Robin' of the series.

I could believe that taking place in this movie because it's like, a decent parody? But apparently it's a drama/horror/comedy from what I have heard. Also thanks for the reference man :) /
......tho seriously........this movie actually happened.
I was so glad when i found out you liked him too and now its full circle
Considering what's in Mountain dew.......sounds the same to me lol.
Decker should go on EFAP
You are a hero, Mauler. Keep up the work, kind sir. Your videos give me hope.
You gotta get Decker for an EFAP. Preferably on something about this movie. But it's not TLJ so I don't think many people are defending its themes.....
My mom got me this movie for Christmas. I think I must have wronged her at some point
Mate I fucking dared my mate to watch this film 3 times in a row, he came back to me the next day and said it was the equivalent of torture and has never seen a movie that legit made him go crazy for a week.
You wronged her when you was born mate
@@JoaoVictor-rg5ix I must have...
Did you screw her husband?
@@ToxicDarkLord
If my friend dared me to watch this piece of shit movie three times in a row.
I wouldn’t be friends with that person anymore.
My twin sister actually is autistic (Moderate to Severe), and she had heard about that particular plot point long before we saw the film. She wasn't remotely upset or offended by it: she just thought that it was one of the most genuinely idiotic plot developments she had seen in a motion picture - ever. I can't remember the last time I saw her lose it laughing so hard.
Want to know how to make this movie better, change the story completely. Have the Upgrade Predator be a "Bad Blood" who has gone to Earth because he wants to use the native lifeforms, not necessarily human but animals, to mutate himself to become a stronger hunter. This is considered blasphemous in the Predator culture so they send an elder with his two sons, comprised of a sniper and close combat specialist, to hunt down the upgrade and kill him. The Upgrade crash lands on earth and gets to work on animal hunting where he runs awol of McKenna which will fuel their rivalry throughout the movie. While the three predators are out hunting the Sniper gets kidnapped by the government and taken to the predator study facility, which is also where McKenna and the Crazies will be staying at, and the Father and Specialist will storm the place to save him but during the scuffle as the Crazies are getting away with the doctor they accidentally take the device that they use to hunt the Upgrade. After a series of scuffles, the Crazies and the Predators meet up and trade the device back to them only to have the Upgrade, now mutated with the DNA from crocodiles, rhinos, and elephants to attack killing one of the crazies and forcing the preds to retreat. Now the crazies must join forces with the Preds to take the Upgrade down once and for all by hunting him down, causing McKenna to bond with Sniper for their preferred method of killing and the Crazies to admire how badass the Specialists is. They finally track it down to the ship that was the preds only means to leave earth and set a trap for Upgrade. This, however, ends badly as all the crazies get killed, and the Father and the Specialists get his arm ripped off. The climax ends with McKenna and Sniper fighting Upgrade together and barely being able to beat him until Specialist shoots him in the head with a sniper gun disorienting him, sniper slashes open his throat with a knife, and McKenna shoves a grenade in its mouth killing him once and for all. Sniper and Specialist leave with their father's corpse and gives him the knife as a sign of respect, ending on the Predator's homeworld while the brothers are hailed as heroes by their clan.
So we have a kickass action-suspense movie, with no out of place comedy, developed characters that explore the morality of killing for honor vs killing for efficiency, not retconning the lore of the Predator franchise, and no unnecessary kid character with a forced message that Autism is the next stage of evolution. There, I fixed the Movie!
Jeffrey Weber that’s so awesome...Hollywood will never hire you lmao
Maybe make one of the predators take stab at human humor without understanding it. Like perhaps reading a joke... then just cock it's head before throwing the piece of paper with the joke on away with a growly-noise... as if 'rolling his eyes'. That'd have been legit funny and give a sort of fish out of water feel. And since it was a one off thing, and possibly as of use to contrast with, perhaps a very tense moment prior.... it'd work well.
Want to know how to make this film better? Have the opening roll straighr into the end credits. There i fixed it!
And , have a scene perhaps where they see something like a porn magazine, one predator looks at it, is confused, then looks interested and makes a clicking sound, then drops it and storms out embarassed as it realises what it shows and that those are human females which is not right to them since humans are like animals for them. A funny way to show fish out of water, and for the predators to be shown that they actually can have a interest in the opposite sex, since so far we've not seen single female predator on film( now that's good diversity hollywood, please make a film with a female predator) and not a hint that predators have a interest in sex, romance, or even the opposite sex, which for the very intelligent and sentient race at least on level with humans, doesn't work.
Wanna beat a predator ?
Autism> muscle bound Post-Vietnam badass's
Imagine if the predators gained the power of autism, like they wanted. They would have degraded into a bunch screeching mongs. That squat like crabs, while randomly flailing their arms in the air.
I was literally shocked at how bad some of the cgi was, considering this was a major studio release in 2018
It was rushed and they didnt have much of a budget either from what i heard too
@@somedudewhodraws9377 88 Million dollars
@@dodojesus4529 but compare that budget to say godzilla 2014 which had 140 something million! And its sequel twice as much too. that means this movies budget was tiny in comparison
@@somedudewhodraws9377 but talking about it as not much would also be wrong
@@somedudewhodraws9377 small budget is a bad excuse for shit movie with shit visuals .
Aliens was made with only a budget of 18 million , even if you account for inflation that's still smaller than this films budget
Lmao that "kill me now" part was the best
would've been so much cooler if the "Predator Killer" was a Xenomorph
Good idea
The real "Predator Killer" is Shane Black.
That's actually where I thought they were going in that scene.
If the yautja stole dna from those they hunted... Wouldn't the yautja have acid blood from hunting the xenomorphs for like ever?
Silly Cthulhu Especially since they went out of their way to make the AVP films canon with this one. Shit filmmakers wanting to shove references in their films but too stupid to carry through with anything. I’d have been outraged if I’d seen acid blood but it would’ve given more credence towards that concept they were going for. Which was shit anyways but hey.
@@afriendinthevoid6522 Yeees, you sir are a smart man. Or a smart woman, whichever. lol I forget whose video it was but someone said that the movie might have been better if A. The normal predator survived and you remove the suit idea for the humans. B. Predator original there joins the humans. and C. Said original predator, who also had human dna, was actually the final surviving army guy from that Predators one where they were on a hunting planet. Like he survived sooo long that the yautja gave him the highest reward, becoming one of them. Explaining why said yautja wished to save mankind. Now that I am typing it I think the youtuber was Foundflix? With his ending explained video for this.
SHHHH with that logic and sense
Not necessarily. Just because they collect the DNa doesn't mean that they have figured out how to incorporate it into their own physiology . May not even be possible. We have collected DNa from dogs, but haven't made ourselves able to sniff out a hidden treat in a room full of stuff.
Shouldn't they all be AVP:R style predaliens at this point?
When the plot said "Predators have Human DNA" I immediately started ranting on how they were basically trying to connect this movie to Prometheus which led more rants before a week or five I eventually calmed down.
Someone told me about the human predator connection thing and I was confused and mad
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand im staring to think that this might be Shane Black's ripoff of Prometheus because it's plot SAYS THAT THE ENGINEERS ALSO RELATED TO US BECAUSE WE HAVE THEIR DNA INSIDE US!!!! F***K!!! Like seriously, who does that??? Who makes a Predator film and make it look like it's exists in the same universe as Prometheus??? No one except Shane Black, thats who!!! *sigh*
Yeah. That shit was retarded. That whole gene splicing shit was so stupid as FUCK!!!
Theres an alternate ending where Ripley and newt we're inside the pod instead of the predator killer. How? Try to figure that bone out.
I thought this Predator was the only one who had human DNA.
The Upgrade Predator probably had cybernetic implants in order to have the HUD and thermal vision. If only Shane Black EXPLAINED THAT!!!!
It makes sense, atleast to me, there is a badblood clan that are cyborgs and prefer hunting machine based prey. These predators are a bad blood clan of hybrids, Shane Black himself said that is may not be all predators but is definently this specific group of angry predators.
BSM 1999 again, if Shane explained that in the film, things would’ve been a bit better. Also, it’s obvious that there r various clans that are traditionalists. So, my theory is that the Fugitive went rogue because he felt that his brethren was moving away from what their species was all about. The code of the hunt. Now I’m beginning to think that the Predator homeworld is probably gonna be engulfed in a civil war of some sort over this.
@@celestialspartan1176 i like that, a full of war rather than a clan rivalry, badblood hybrids vs honorable purebloods.
19:26 was just a way for them to explain the upgrade Predators origins of getting hybridized. But that was rushed and didn't explain much of anything about the upgrade.
Then why the hell does the masks still exist? I mean they are more of like a ritualistic warrior garb, as much as a functional tool. If they gan make cybernetic stuff like that... why not just cyber-enhance themselves instead of going with spinal fluid of lesser species which somehow makes improved predators....? mechanical enhancements means less biological functions that can be screwed with... like lungs, broken bones, bleeding, heat signatures, etc. etc.
It really is “The Predator Killer”
(Pun intended)
Some people actually think that Predator 2 is bad movie? I don't get why they would think that way when Predator 2 is actually good movie that also expanded Predator lore.
I actually liked Pred 2, it stayed with the canon and expanded not retconed cool lore
yeah, i don't really get the hate either... but oh well, i also never understood what people liked about the first avp movie
PREDATOR 2 is GREAT unlike this piece if trash
P2 was and it may always be the last true Predator movie ever created
I still love it. . . But looking at it objectively it is quite. . . Goofy compared to the first. . . A predator movie shouldnt make u chuckle, and number 2, for as awesome as it is. . . Makes u chuckle on more than one occasion
Doesnt in anyway make it a bad movie, as i said i fucking love that movie, it does so much right. . . But even if i dont agree, i can see where the negative critism comes from
I want someone to go talk to Shane Black, and ask him if he knows the meaning of "Yautja"
“Then to hang him by his ankles while threatening to gut him for this piece of Prometheus esc shit!”
@@nargacugaking9767 "...but before actually gutting him, ask him 1 simple question: WANT SOME CANDY???!!!....." ...and then slash him to pieces!!!! ;)
Plasma caster up the bum.
There's a reason why he was the first one to go in the original? Apparently the actor who played Billy really didn't like him, and needed a bodyguard around him to prevent him from re arranging Black's face?
Or Hish-Qu-Ten
I love this guy and his personality. I also appreciate the feeling of classic UA-cam he gave off when he first started making videos and appreciate that he hasn’t changed much after all these years. lol
What about the hair?! … he’s the internet personality with the best hair
I felt the passion behind that “KILL ME” moment. I bought a bootleg and I still feel like I wasted money. Lol
At least it didn't take 30 days to get UA-cam to let the video out
Good
This is going to be painful, isn't it? :)
Yes....

The last Jedi of predator: a careful deconstruction of everything people LOVE about the franchise and reconstructing it as a middle finger
Disagree, this is the phantom menace of predator, not the last Jedi
A random Halo dude at least phantom menace was memeable this is just pure shit
@@arandomhalodude634 nah man the phantom menace was way better than the last jedi. boring, yes. badly made, yes. but at least the final battle with maul was somewhat cool and entertaining, the last jedi just made me consider trying to find a way to give me self amnesia so I wouldn't live with the knowledge that such a fucking god awful film exists.
@@arandomhalodude634 Really, Luke deciding to kill his nephew in his sleep isn't a middle finger to the fans?
Luke DIDN'T decide to kill his nephew in his sleep. He had a moment of weakness, a temptation. What, your heroes can't show weakness? In a series NOTORIOUS for its religious symbolism? Plus, not like the first time Luke was tempted and had a moment of weakness. Do you all just forget luke chopping his father's hand when Vader tempted turning Leia? But because that probably happened during your youth, that gets a pass, but because you saw 8 as an adult, nostalgia speaks more than common sense.
Look, I mean no offense by my comments, but to act like your heroes are not allowed to be flawed and make mistakes, especially when Luke more than atoned for that(you know, when Luke goes into the Force at the end, which would not have happened had he NOT REDEEMED HIMSELF),is just allowing your need for star wars to give you what you want as opposed to common sense ruling out. And that is just dishonest.
I am ashamed to say I laughed my ass off at the "Thumbs Up" scene. It's just so stupid that a Predator would resort to that that it's hillarious.
I thought it was a reasonable thing for the Predator to do, and illustrated that these accomplished hunters study their prey to be able to imitate behavior to put the hunted at ease. Plains tribes use to imitate bison calves during hunts before the introduction of the horse so that they could get close to them and lure herds into traps.
But given how shit this movie was, I don’t for a second believe that was the intention, and I can’t get over the fact that the driver would have follow up questions that would need more than a hand gesture.
Decker has Vietnam flashbacks the review
The movie that broke Decker, indeed.
*Requiem*
Broke me too
The movie that proved he's a jackass
Fury Gods like Batman and Bane
How’s that?
Rip the bandage off? Decker this is a 40 minute video. That is more akin to slowly peeling off the bandage for torture.
The movie called "The Predator" (2018) is the worst movie i have ever seen in my entire life. I actually find it hard to believe that a movie like that exists. It is in a category of its own.
You suffered for Shane Black's sins by watching this movie.
Thank you decker.
Shane Black's character in the first Predator film Hawkings im glade he got kill my the Predator first for Making this movie
One of my favorite dialogue exchanges in the movie is,
"did you find Hawkins?"
"I... I can't tell."

I feel like I don’t even have to watch the movie after watching your reviews because of the detail you give. Your reviews are awesome!! 😎
save yourself, don't watch this shitty movie
I barely graduated high school and suck at writing stories , let's see if I can come up with a better story idea to take care of this roaring dumpster fire of a movie than those hollywood writers did .
The Upgrade predator is a predator from a clan that has secretly become bad bloods , as their secret hybridization program is very illegal and against the predator honor code . The other predator was from a rival clan and had infiltrated an Upgrade fortress and discovered what they were doing . When he took this information to his clans ruling elders he was told it was not enough information to bring to the elder predators that rule over all the clans , as it would be his word against that of the entire upgrade clan . So the lone predator creates the predator killer suit to give to the humans of the stargazer project in secret , because sharing tech with the humans is forbidden . If the humans use the suit they will be able to kill enough of the upgrade predators that the ruling elders will be forced to intervene to find out why so many hunters are dying and when they find the altered bodies of the predators their crimes will be exposed and their clan will be destroyed .
The sequel to the predator would be set some time later . The stargazer project has taken out half a dozen Upgrade predators that came to earth to collect genetic samples , as well as predators from other clans . The Upgrades rival clan passes this information along to the ruling elders which then send in a team to clean up the mess by recovering or destroying any evidence and finding out how the humans have suddenly become so successful at hunting predators . The Upgrade clan arrives first to destroy all evidence of their crimes before the elders team can find it . This leads to the Upgrade predators attacking project stargazer facilities to collect the bodies , which tips off the stargazer personnel that something is up because the Upgrades seem almost like they are panicking which is a behavior that they have never shown before . Then the other team arrives , this is a team not of hunters but in fact MILITARY grade predators that have been sent in under the command of an ancient . They would have super predator's , stalker's , hydra's , blazer's and vanguard's . They would also begin hitting stargazer facilities to recover bodies and tech , destroy research and avenge the slain predators . During this the ancient would begin to piece together what the upgrades were doing on earth and abroad , leading them to the decision to declare them bad bloods and wipe out their clan . The hunter killer squad of the stargazer program have holed up at their last facility at an abandoned military base and are prepared to face off against the Upgrades , then the elders team arrives and it turns into a three way free for all . It turns into a chaotic slaughter-fest as members of the three factions team up at random to take down a superior foe and just as quickly turn on one another to ensure their own survival . It see's all three sides being decimated and the battle comes down to a fight between the Upgrade clan leader , the predator killer and the ancient . The ancient and the predator killer have to team up against the upgrade clan leader but they eventually take him down even though it costs the life of the predator killer to do so . Out of respect for their courage and ferocity the ancient orders his team to spare the surviving humans and tells them that the bad bloods are fair game for them and any tech that they recover in the future is theirs to keep , but if they interfere in their hunts again there will be hell to pay . More time passes , project stargazer is still around but they no longer hunt predators because of their agreement and because the predators took the predator killer suit with them and destroyed all records of how to duplicate it . Now they act more as game wardens , cleaning up the messes left in the wake of a predator hunt , silencing witnesses that get to vocal , recovering abandoned tech for study and taking care of the occasional bad bloods that show up . In exchange the predators discreetly supply them with limited terraforming tech to repair the enviromental damage so that the human race won't go extinct . Wouldn't want to lose one of their favorite hunting grounds now would they .
I'll finish it up here as I just ran out of ideas . It may be crap but its still better than The Predator movie that we got .
Thank you for taking the time write that i would rather see that than this shamefull movie
That was multiple movie ideas that built on each other and made sense. Job well done.
Kinda crappy but still 10x times better than this abomination. By hollywood standards you just were nominated to some mid-tier writing awards for this scripts
OP didn't graduate high school and still went on to write this novel. If that doesn't motivate you... Idk..
Damn, much more thrilling than this movie
So McKenna puts on the wrist gauntlet with the cloaking device, but the Predator shows up without the gauntlet and kills his friends while cloaked. Alright.
It had two...?
All this movie is good for is making you wanna watch a better Predator movie, like Predator... Or Predator 2...or hell... Even Predators, at least that movie has a cool Yakuza fight with Yautja
Jim Pickens hell i rather watch avpr than this
All hail Jim Pickens! The great leader.
I saw this thumbnail today and thought, "Hey I remember that movie was a thing. I love the original Predator and still wanna give entries into the series a fair shake. I better oughta give it a watch before going into reviews about it. "
So I tried to watch it on amazon and the log in wants to send a secondary password to my wife who is at work all day and not likely to respond for hours. This disheartens me and I give up, and decide to just watch the review anyway.
It was only while watching that I realized I'd already seen it. It all came flooding back. I must have watched it some night when it was more readily available to me. It was soooooooo bad that I had completely blocked it out.
"That, apparently was Predator
...and I was it's prey!" lol
Predator vs The A-Team...if the team was nothing but Murdocks.
Nah at least Murdock is funny
that would have actually made for a half decent movie, not this steaming dumpster fire that got turned into sushi
More like if the A-Team was nothing but Face.
Murdock has always been the secretly hyper-competent one in the A-Team. Often, it's suspected that he is only faking insanity. Face's only real quality is that he's a con man.
They should just make PRedator movies in different time periods. Predator 1776. Predator 320 BC. Predator Jurassic. Etc.
Strangely enough they had set up for a Predator movie set during the time Pirates ruled the Seas and hell even a comic of it but no one ever went with that idea
Wasn't there a trailer for a Predator vs medieval knights fan movie?
@@sebastianemond5313 and predator in ww2
I think especially during wartime would be really interesting. Like Predators attacking soldiers in the claustrophobic trenches of World War 1, or joining the battle of Stalingrad, picking off stray soldiers or stalking snipers and lone survivors. I think it’s a good way to make the films have a interesting visual flair while at the same time bringing back in the horror elements.
That is what is so frustrating about the movies, the comics and books are full of these kind of awesome ideas but apparently a retarded monkey is in charge of movie development for this series
I seen this disaster coming when the script leaked out...
A lot of people did
"I'm a sniper. Just get me close."
Simo Hayha: *gutteral screams in Finnish*
Reminds me that I still need that Decker x MauLer collab video to happen.
Houmiii I second that. Maybe an EFAP.
yep that really needs to happen lets get it going
And remember: "Always remove the skull with the spine attached for easy storage."
This movie is non-canon as far as I'm concerned, predators hunting to harvest DNA is the god damn dumbest take someone could do on their mythos. Where as a whole culture that prides itself on honor, skill, strength and the thrill of hunting dangerous game that could very well kill you is way more interesting. Because it provides interesting potential for interactions.
Preach!!!
Just playing Devil’s advocate, and I haven’t watched this movie in a while so I’m just going off Decker’s review and there might be something from the movie I missed.
One issue I’ve had with a lot of alien species/cultures in sci-fi is that they’re presented as basically a monoculture where every member of the species, no matter if there are millions/billions/trillions of them, all have the same beliefs, religion, language, values, etc. Is it too far fetched that there may be a (small) group of Yautjas who don’t adhere to the “honor, skill, strength and the thrill of the hunt” and may want to dabble in genetic hybridization, but the purists want to stop this from happening and are willing to exterminate them for their sacrilegious, abominable experimentations?
Not saying that’s what’s happening here, but if we accept a wide range of variations within the multiple cultures of our one human species, why do/should we assume that everyone of a different species is all the same?
@@LCDigital92 I do agree with your point that alot of alien cultures tend to be portrayed very mono-cultured and it wouldn't hurt to expand the lore and world building with them to make them more complex culturally.
I think what more annoys me with this movie on that angle, is that the way everything is done it more just reeks of hollywood going the done to death route of "Make the monster bigger and basically invincible" combined with "Humans are super special and aliens are interested in our amazing genes despite said alien being demonstrably our superior in every aspect it seems." instead of being a serious attempt to add to the lore or depth of the Yautja.
One thing I did actually kind of like with the AvP movie, was how it expanded the lore for the Predators in that they were actually the ones that came and taught humans how to build and such. Like they still showed the warrior/hunter side of the Predators but also showed that at least some segment also felt a desire to teach other races.
@@Tazkar Thing is that there's an expansive predator lore that explains that those that deviates from Honor the Hunt are Bad Blood predators and sure there are clans out there that are wholey labled as such and hunts for the kill, not for the honor. They are more like Human Hunters going out to shoot something that isn't a threat to themselves - rather than going out hunting a panther, armed with just a spear and a quilted cotton-armor... intent on bringing that panther back as a show of manhood or honor from the rest of the tribe.
I died at the "ass burger" part 😂
The most furious he has been since Steven Seagal
Which Seagal movie
@@williamcorey4700 any of the direct to video ones or On Deadly Ground
I don’t get why the pred strung up the guy immediately after it crashed... in the first 2 films they recon their environment and prey for half the film.... here he just jumps straight in... my god I hate this film
Exactly. The script was written by an actual autistic kid!
It's consistent with AvP:R though, where the Pred started skinning people for no reason as well. So yeah, we can consistently ignore those two dumpster fire movies together :D
Skinning now is nothing more than a shoehorned nostalgia nod!
Regardless of all the shit in AvP:R, at least the remaining behaviour of the Wolf Predator was decent enough. If I recall correctly.
@@rudolphantler6309 Nah, an autistic kid could come up a better movie than this. The writers were just underpaid morons.
I'm a sniper. Just get me close! :D
This makes me appreciate Predators from 2010 a lot more
Yeah, as much as the lead may have come off as a Gary Stu for knowing everything about the aliens (even tho it is kinda obvious), it's still a better movie than this pile of crap.
6:54. OH MY GOSH, that’s the chief of police from “Freddy vs Jason”!!!
Comment section:
%50: I have Autism
%20: This movie is bad
%30: Decker Shado is awesome
and somewhere in between is: I dont know why People think predator 2 was bad or didnt like it
And there are people who try to find redeeming qualities of AvP: Requiem.
I don't see how that is possible.
@@cielo987 I guess people had a problem with a predator fighting an L.A. cop in the city rather than some special force soldier/marine in a forest. But hey, as Danny Glover said:
"Shit happens!"
Oh, it did, Danny. We just had to wait 28 years for it.
@@yumikomiura88 No one can see it either... the movie is so damn DARK you can't see a damn thing at all.
@@cielo987 yea i dont know or understand teh hate fro predator 2 i recommend that over this who ever wrote this should never write another script and if you like jake busey i recommedn dthe frightners with him and michael j fox
I've been laughing the whole time in theatres, drunk I mean, really hammered drunk, got home and cried
Well u got lucky, my wife found me sobbing in the shower after using sandpaper as a loofah trying to cleanse myself of the memory of this movie's sins.
“Predator noun, an animal that naturally preys on other animals.” Movie your jokes about the inaccuracy in a name doesn’t work when not only is it not funny, but it’s also on its own inaccurate.
I don't think we ever confirmed whether it was natural for the predators to kill, or if it was just a societal choice.
@@fightingmedialounge519 ......chances are they would kill for meat...since in predator 2 it was confirmed that the predator ate meat from the slaughter house, chances are, they eat some of the things they hunt.
@@predatorking3131 when i say natural I mean biological insitnct.
@@fightingmedialounge519 .....is it not a biological instinct to eat? Im saying...their predators...a predator is when a animal, hunts and kills another animal for sustenance....Yautja are predators, *we* are predators. Forgive me if i sounded rude, but im just saying...their predators.
@@predatorking3131
Oh man, what I am saying is that we don't know if the way the go about hunting is do to a fundamental animalastict desire that they can't go against the same way we can't stop ourselves from being hungry, or if they could go about in less vicious and hostile manner, but choose not to because of how society operates. The same way humanity way of going about hunting defined by our current civilization.
"If It bleeds we can kill it!" Great video, I really enjoyed reviewing this myself :)
It should've been 0 out of 5
He never gives zeros. He rates the films on a one to five stars. Giving a zero would go against his rating system
God, I remember seeing your outburst on MauLer's video on The Predator, and thinking "man, I cannot WAIT until his review."
Lou and behold, I get 42 MINUTES OF IT. Thank you, Lord Decker.
Isn't just the act of preying the basic prerequisite of a predator? Anything that preys on another thing is a predator, be it for food or sport or any other reason
🤘🍻🤘
watching this I was like "why's he so pissed have i missed an in joke?" and then I realised T H E predator is a completely different movie that totally warrants this reaction
So, the later Predator movies, made me skeptical about this movie, reviews of this movie showed I was correct. However, still part of me that was willing to give it a Netflix watch. Between you, Decker, and Cinema Sins, feel like I've seen enough. And have a feeling was FAR more entertaining than the movie itself. Thank you, Decker for this.
This was less of a Predator sequel and more of a Guyver remake.
....should Hollywood make another guyver film?
JUSTIN
THANK YOU
DUDE
I COULDN'T REMEMBER THE
NAME OF THAT MOVIE
THE PREDATOR 2018
WAS A
GUYVER SCRIPT
@@TheEnigmaticBM39
guyver is amazing as it is, no need to fuck it up again with another live action movie. I'll stick to the anime and manga.
I'm not saying Guyver 2: Dark Hero was a masterpiece, but if you've seen the first film, it's one of those rare moments where the sequel was better than the first. Props on the Guyver name drop! Not many people remember that one.
Don't disrespect guyver by comparing it to this piece of shit.
"Therefore, crappy ending!"
Couldn't have said it better myself.
Im convinced the palm slaps to his head are the secret to his mighty mane!!🍺🍺
After watching the film again
I hate this movie so damn much......hell I low key want my money back for buying it on digital lol
If you paid money for it, you are complicit in it.
@@Alknix I was at first but after watching the film I hate everything about it
Why did you buy this on digital?!
*Poor Decker. He probably nuked his DVD after this 1!!*
Ki
Hey, Decker, it's okay, man. I feel your pain. I absolutely detest this movie too.
Your UA-cam Game has increased greatly since I saw you in your early uploads. Good job, man! Truly an inspiration.
The Predator ruined my favorite alien species.
Same.
It might've ruined the entire franchise!!! Not just Predator himself.
Predators is better than the predator, predator two too, but nothing beats predator, even comparing predator versus alien vs predator, predator always comes on top.
Fuck these names though, holy shit
+The Jim Reaper™ First of all that's a terrible outlook to have and is something people say to try and void any criticisms "It's just a movie about space wizards for kids! Now lemme talk about all the deep themes that children possibly wouldn't understand!"
Secondly people aren't even that pissed at this movie for any scientific inaccuracies, it's because they've completely fucked an entire franchise's universe. If you like this garbage that's find but don't act like the complaints aren't at all valid or warranted.
@The Jim Reaper™ Again it's not even the science being used wrong that most have a problem with. It's how this whole movie shits on the Predator lore and universe? Did you gloss over that part or can't read?
I wouldn't even say it's fun, the jokes fail to land for the majority of people, the hyped up predator vs predator lasted for what? Almost two minutes? If you liked it that's fine. Doesn't change the fact of how fucking shitty this movie is for Predator fans.
And here I thought Requiem was as bad as it could get
Tristan Roberson at least requiem did have some redeeming qualities like wolf and the predalien
Tristan Roberson Makes it look badass in comparison, doesn't it?
Jeggson Vohees I just wish that Requiem had better lighting
Requiem's director:
"I made the worst Alien&Predator movie ever!"
Ridley Scott and Shane Black:
"Hold our beers!"
29:34 the predator doesn't have a mask on, and yet it still has heat vision, complete with zooms and scans.
Cybernetics, there is a badblood clan that are cyborgs and prefer hunting machines based prey, so it's not that hard to think about.
11:38 I'm feelin' a little deja vu here, LOL!! (Flashbacks to the car review of The Predator)
This is probably my favorite Decker Shado review ever.
That kill me line literally made me piss a little bit I laughed so hard
29:35... Don't tell me I saw that 😲... WHAT! HE DIDENT HAVE A MASK!!
😞 Uug... What did I think was going to happen... I have no words.
Best review of this mess of a film on the entire internet!!! Well done again Decker and we're grateful we don't have to give ourselves forehead whacks every 5 minutes!
If u start a cult...I'm signing up!
Here's my thing about the global warming...they present the whole extinction thing and never resolve it or address again later. Bad writing.
It reminds me of that Simpsons episode where Lisa reads an article about how bad the future of Springfield will be. She went on anti-depressants until the end where she is stopped. And yet we don't get a resolution as to what caused her depression in the first place: the article about what will become of Springfield.
Then again, the internet is full of BS, so she might have wisened up and dismissed that article as some crazy prediction some jackass made.
...I am struggling to find one thing this movie does well. Come back, AVP, all is forgiven.
Not Requim though. Let's not go nuts.
Yeah, we may be fans but we aren't stupid. 🤣😂🤣
Requiem pisses me off so much...
The lone positive thing about Requiem is that compared to this movie, the characters were not annoying. They were not interesting in any way though but i can deal with bland.
@Johnny Skinwalker I dunno, the scream queen got on my nerves. But not as bad as these dullards, no.
@Johnny Skinwalker Not really. They were just generic slasher victims with no real interesting traits.
After 3 years, I finally got to see this review
32:19
Heard that name drop. "Upgrayedd"
Another Predator, so to speak, who came through time and space in a high-tech pod, to hunt the protagonist.
Much better movie, if you ask me.
UPGRAYYED
GONNA KILL ME
IF I DON'T HAVE HIS MONEY
I like that you decided to wear the same shirt as you wore in yore initial reaction.
@Scooter Wilder I saw the mistake after I wrote it but I figured, fuck it, it still works.
Unlike movie-makers, Decker knows what continuity is
For those that like this movie:
it adds ideas only.. it undermines anything threatening about the Yautja lore already established by unraveling mysteries and solving them with genetic convenience. It’s a shit film and a stain in the predator movie franchise. Isn’t even better than predators. I’ll stick to number 1&2.
Hell, I'm more willing to accept AvP than this film.
And that's because it has a solid foundation, if the execution was good awful.
I liked some of the ideas, but the Yautja are out of character Imo. Unless they are supposed to be from the clan of the three from predators (which was a much better film)
@@VelociraptorsOfSkyrim that dna splicing straight out of Jurassic Park
Well, I feel Decker now loves this movie...Why is there a nuclear explosion in Texas now?
Decker could u also review a lot more kaiju movies to prepare for Godzilla King of the Monsters?
I love the way decker says how convenient in this review🤣
I think the ending music should have been the funeral March for the predator franchise.
You could say that I've been...HUNTING for this kind of review from you Decker...
I'm not sorry
nor should you be.... bad puns belong with bad movies
The PREDATOR (2019)
Rated M for mature, adult audiences only, Contains "multiple contents" In world were the camera is focused on a sexual predator IN PRISON, Haha Great Review
I've been predatoring for this review
Boo.
I love this part:
"Mom says you're a killer."
Black "Looney" soldier:😥😦😧 *Aight...imma head out...* ✌
"I'm a sniper, just get me close."
...isn't that the exact opposite of what a sniper is supposed to do?
