Your opinions are valid, even if they're wrong.
Ummm they don't have prey in Disney Plus buddy
Could you do a video in English? I had to use subtitles. Your content looks really good, but having to read distracts from the video.

@@commodoor6549 I don't know what language the guy is speaking, bro. He looks like an American, but sounds like he's from western Europe maybe? I don't know. He makes my brain hurt. . .
You forgot about the Predator TV show, the one with Chris Hansen.
🤣🤣🤣
There was a Predator TV show 🧐
"But I call you Chris Handsome"
@@mixedbeatz16 “we can do this the easy way, or we can do it the hard way, the choice is yours” 😂
To catch a predator, it's in the Boondocks.
I never understood the hate for AVP. It came out when I was a kid and, because it was rated pg13, was the first "action", adult-centered, movie I saw. It has a special place in my heart and I remember thinking how awesome the predators were.
It got hate mostly from pre-existing fans of AvP comics, games, etc. Mostly they were set in the future of the Alien movies while the AvP movie used (then) a modern setting. It also ignored a lot of lore from the Alien/Predator films. Aliens grow to adulthood in minutes, the Predators are hunting in the Arctic when every previous movie made it clear they love hot environments, etc. I think it just wasn't what fans had been hoping for. But it wasn't actually an awful movie.
I agree that movie was a huge part of my childhood
@@Spiketicon Every Alien and Predator movie before it had been rated R and AVP was PG13. That's a pretty big offense itself. Story and location was a vastly inferior knock off of the comic/book Aliens vs Predator Prey. You had an elder predator overseeing a hunt with a bunch of hot head young bloods. When the elder gets injured and thought dead the young bloods go ham and start killing everyone/everything. At the same time an alien infestation grows at the human colony so those two clash and you get the iconic fights. Why they didn't just use that instead of this lame ass artic temple bs I'll never know.
Unlike you I was also a kid but had seen the first predator film and alien movie and aliens and pred 2 by the time I was like 10, I went opening day of AvP with my dad and my uncle I believe it was actually Christmas Eve I think, and it was dope ever since I watched that first pred movie when I was bored one summer stuck at my grandparents and stumbled on that VHS lmao shit I feel old
Honestly if you watch it back you’ll likely get the hate, the camera and lighting work are awful and you can barely see what goes on for a massive portion of it, the characters are just bags of blood to be spilled when needed and have no characterising, some cool mood setting scenes like the hunting trip, wolf (the predator) killing witnesses and dissolving bodies and the hospital scene of course
I think I liked Predator 2 so much because in the first one, Dutch and his crew just got hunted until only Dutch was left, and had no choice but to fight to survive.
In the sequel Harrigan just wasn't having any of that, and the warehouse scene is where he flipped the script and *became the hunter*.
Dutch got backed into a corner by the predator. Harrigan backed the predator into the corner.
There's a Dirty Dancing joke at the end there, but it's late and I'm tired.
nobody puts Murtaugh in a corner
@@saml302 thank you for this
Predator 2 just expanded upon the predator lore so well. The disk, the alien skull, the predator ship, the king predator, the staff, the retracting net, the speargun. The lore created by predator 2 made the yautja more endearing to me. It is a bit over the top, yes but that's why it still holds up imo.
Hannigan was such a badass too! I like predator 2 just as much as I like the first predator.
Predator 2 > Predator I will not be taking questions
@@saml302 You can't top a movie with Gary Busey and Bill Paxton (RIP)
It’s really an underrated sequel, as I got older I keep wondering why wasn’t that aspect expanded, preds having a tribe and having a leader that really isn’t touched till AVP when the elder gives the chick a combistick, a knod to pred 2. And in prey that pistol that she ended up with like did another pred claim that weapon after hunting her?
@@Thisguy2532 Yes, they show a predator ship descending near the tribes location in preys post credits artwork.
@@candycommander you want some ganja, man
So glad you're expanding your palette more, my man, thoroughly enjoy the breadth you're currently covering - when younger, you were probably too in thrall to Marvel, but you have matured and broadened well.
That’s awesome to hear man thank you. Always wanna do broader topics but it’s hard to push the algorithm for anything not firmly up disneys arse these days!
@@FullFatVideos I get you, my man, that's unfortunate and problematic, but you've still gotta cover what you want, and it's great to see you use your skills to greater, wider ends. The best critics are objective, and you may lose some people, but the thinking people will come back to you. Much respect ✊
@@FullFatVideos prey
That was actually a PTSD moment that was kept in the film. Both Bill Duke and Jessie Ventura served in Vietnam and both said they had PTSD moments during filming including the mini gun scene where "Mac" holds down the trigger long after running out of ammo
Nothing will ever top the master piece that John McTiernan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Kevin Peter Hall (RIP) released 35 years ago in 1987.
Amen
The fight between Prey's Predator and Taabe (the brother) slightly infuriated me. Not because it was bad, but because over an hour into the movie the director suddenly seemed to realize the Commanche were noted horse-riders. Even by the early 1700's a troop of Commanche warriors going out on foot would be a bizarre sight.
I'm sorry to be the um actually guy but they still used large dogs up until 1725 and they didn't start trading horses until 1795. They did start to use horses in 1680 but the whole nation didn't acquire horses that quickly.
The one thing that bugs me about the call back to the pistol in prey is that there is already a pretty cool back story to it which could've been a movie in itself. Have a look at the comic predator: 1718 to see it.
Glad to see love for Predators. My absolute favourite of all the films
Predator 2 is undoubtedly my favorite for the gritty atmosphere of Los Angeles and the expansion of the lore. The style and camera work is also a huge plus as well, with so many memorable shots and action scenes that are just pure 90's awesomeness. And the characters in my opinion are actually great and well defined in the film rather than being victims for the Predator slaughter, and I felt bad when one of them died i.e. Danny and Jerry.
I like a lot of the ideas in Predator 2 but the criminals and gangs were so over the top, I was expecting Robocop to show up.
I also like Predators but it really felt like it was meant to be a Predator vs. Colonial Marines movie. Everyone's just kind of fine that they're on an alien planet and Adrien Brody's character comes up with a plan to get a Predator ship to fly back to earth. Also, the Lawrence Fishburne parts were just weird and oddly paced.
That's the charm of the film imo. The gangs made the predator look cool!
you want some ganja, man?
Cartels behead people and hang them over bridges. What they did in the movie wasn't really over the top. It was pretty stupid how the cops didnt just have a sniper team take out the gang at the beginning. Gotta show how the situation is utter shit someone I guess.
I’m one of those people who considers alien and predator to be in the same universe. I also feel the first AVP is underated and consider to be the third movie in the predator franchise for me. I also think alien resurrection isn’t that bad. At least it’s fun in an action sci fi kind of way. I put predator, aliens and predator 2 on my top 10 favourite movies list.
I personally adored Prey. I've already watched in 5 times and that's alot for me considering its a horror, really gorey type movie but its just enthralling. I have to admit though the line "If it bleeds, we can kill it" just casually thrown in was cliche and cheesy. It didn't have the same punch as the original. Overall I loved Prey.
There is so much potential for AvP.....Predators use Xenomorphs as a way of defining their ranks....would love to see a Yautja take on an Alien infested planet, or a movie with the clan that uses Xenomorphs as trained dogs.
List is accurate.
This video has definitely convinced me to give Predators another watch
Watched Prey on my 55” oled tv, and it’s one of those movies that really uses the whole tv’s capabilities. Looks stunning
Well a 4k uhd disk will look better than steaming any thing
@@bendover5289 oh definitely, but still looked amazing, so can only improve from here
1. Predator
2. Prey
3. Predator 2
4. Predators
5. Avp
6. The predator
7. Avp requiem
My favourite predator is the city hunter. I like the brown/red colour, and the mask looks cool. It also just has lots of cool weapons including the spear and smart disc. My second pick would be the jungle hunter because it looks so good in that first movie.
Im with ya on this 101% 😉
Wolfe from requiem has to be #1
Here is my personal Ranking of the Predator Franchise:
1. Predator (1987)
2. Predator 2 (1990)
3. Prey (2022)
4. Predators (2010)
5. Alien vs Predator (2004)
6. The Predator (2018)
7. Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (2007)
same. 👏 👏 👏
Predator 2 was my entry into the series and it's one of the best in the series.
My opinion. Predator 2 is almost as important as the first predator.
1. First time a predator is hunted by a human.
2. The train scene is hailed as a perfect scene for horror.
3. Establishes way more lore
4. Was, at the time, set in a distant future of LA.
5. The predator ship was beyond epic
6. The pistol
7. Alien skull (hype for decades)
8. The cast was pretty star studded just as much as the first. Yeah Arnold shines brighter but that cast was amazing.
9. The level of gore that we saw with the predator was on a totally different level than the first one.
10. All the other predators.
I honestly found THE PREDATOR to be exactly what you said it was, but in a strange way that's why I enjoyed it. It botched the canon and made no sense, but I just really liked the loonies too much. They reminded me a bit of the more problematic but fun side of my military buddies and watching them fight this monster with that dark sense of humor just kept me smiling. I'd probably put it at my number 5. you have inspired me to go give PREDATORS a rewatch though, haven't seen it since theatres, I,m less of a pretentious asshole now and probably wont obsess over plotholes .
Idk where I’d put predator 2 and Prey but they’re in my top 3, Predator I think will always be the undisputed best movie in the franchise
I thought prey was a close second to the original predator
Hats off to accepting nostalgia goggles. We all have nostalgic biases and there’s nothing wrong with accepting that. I respect this. But prey has gotta be number 2 for me. That movie really deserved to be in theaters. The Preydator as I call him, why yes I am a fucking genius, is a real beaut design wise
These are not nostalgic googles. Prey is an absolutely stupid movie and I don't understand how it is overrated. Predator 1987 is a completely different level, completely different sport. It's a masterpiece, from Alan Silvestri's terrible nervous music to the great camera, which is no longer seen at all today, to the intelligent predator and not the moron he was in Prey. An Indian woman with a Tomahawk on a rope and the dumbest final fights I've ever seen. Only stupid people can enjoy such a stupid spectacle. Yes, turn off your brain, so you can use it as well, but the high rating it has is already unacceptable. The taste of today's viewer is truly terrible, and thank god for people like this in this video.
@@patrikhelis8235 hey to each his own, man. We can all like different things. You getting this worked up over a movie about an alien in fishnets might prove that maybe I’m not the stupid one 😉
Agree with the list 💯 percent. Also yes Adrian Brody was great and please make an aliens vs predator movie in aliens time line and bring back the colonial Marines!!🔥🔥
Ngl I loved prey. I’ve seen all the movies a while ago and re binged all them before prey. But prey is my third favorite behind predator and avp. The rest are ok. The worst was avp requim imo.
Predator 2 is so underrated, after watching the first one I was left with more questions about this alien hunter. Then I watched the 2nd one and has my favorite ending of the franchise.
I don't think it's underrated at all myself. I've seen nothing but love for it but not without addressing its problems.
Just finished watching every predator film so this is perfectly timed!
Adrian Brody is the MAN in Predators. But the Fishburn plot lowers it to #4 for me.
1) Predator (top 5 all time action film. Plus, my name is Dylan, so sets up amazing introductions from the right people)
2) Prey
3) Predator 2
4) Predators
5) AvP
I couldn’t agree more having Predators ranked #2. Great concept, it establishes some characters you actually care about. It also has one of the funniest lines ever from Walter Goggins character, which I will not repeat but you know what I mean. 😂🤣
Great vid, very honest and with great points. Great work. Very appreciated
Thank you!
Holy shit, I'm surprised you put Predators in 2nd because not many people feel that good about it. I 100% agree with that, that's exactly where it is for me. Actually your list mostly matches with mine except that Predator 2 and Prey is swapped
My ratings
1.Predator
2.Predator 2
3.Prey
4.Predators
5.AVP
6.AVP 2
7.The Predator
I like more than the last one AVP 2 for the violence, dark tone, and I love Wolf.
I don't know if I recall correctly but I think in the Prey trailer they said it was gonna be the Predator's first hunt on Earth and I was wondering if people don't want to count AVP as canon because if they did then the Predator's first hunt would have been before Prey.
Predators is my personal fav Predator film. I think the twist about Topher Grace's character is great and I think the premise is super intelligent.
You count it? Wow most just ignored it!
Prey might be tied or slightly below the OG Predator to me, loved it. The Predator and AVPR are not to be spoken of...
☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️
Others have said it in the comment section, but I'm glad that you acknowledge personal bias in rankings. I feel like not enough people do that. I would personally put Predator 2 at the top of my list, knowing full well that it's objectively not as good a movie but I would choose to watch it over any other Predator movie in the franchise.
First time I watched predator I was already a fan of the predators from AvP but I had no idea it was THE predator and I remember nearly losing it when I saw that heat vision scene at the start
wow, I clicked on this because I was sure your list would differ from mine --- but you NAILED IT! And Prey is exactly where it should be: right in the middle, not a great or even particularly good part of the franchise.
Predators is way underrated, and it sits right where it should be in this list.
the best thing about Predator is, it kicks ass for a full half hour and you forget it's meant to be sci-fi, as the trailer implied --- then it kicks BIGGER ass!
Great list. I didn't think you had the guts to put PREDATORS that high since alot of people hate it, but i thought it had the best sequel premise of them all...
Hope at some point we can revisit that planet with a new cast but this time Royce and Isabelle have all the gear and better defense vs predators
From the worst to the best, for me they would go like:
1. The predator (WORST of all)
2. Alien vs predator
3. Alien vs predator 2
4. Predators
5. Predator 2
6. Prey
7. Predator
To be honest I like most of them. I have a hard time with The predator but the rest are fair fun for me. Even those that I don't consider that good.
I really don't think I can understand putting Prey below Predator 2. I respect the choice to put Predators above both (I'm undecided on Predators vs. Prey myself), but Predator 2? Great ideas to come out of it, but I wouldn't want to sit down and watch it, like, ever.
Prey is so mid
@@stephensnyder5596 no it isn't. Still better than Predator 2.
Saying Pred 1 and 2 are any lower than 1 or 2 is someone who thinks Terminator 2 doesn't belong in top 2.
My favorite Arnold Schwarzenegger quote is "I'm coming on da weights AUGHHhhhh"
Its nice to hear you talking positive about someone’s effort despite how much they worked hard for it and had to haggle with the producers for your own benefit.
Than kyou
In Sixth Form, film studies, we had to make a poster representing the work of “A Real Hollywood Star” - The teacher laughed, but I picked Arnie!
Shout out to the big man!
I do quite love alien covenant I won’t lie
Valid ranking, I loved predators when it came out
I find it fascinating how many people love predator 2 for the lore. I think I saw it once, memorised the lore and never watched it again as I thought it was dull compared to two first one and I never feel like watching two predator movies back to back so I always watch the first one.
Now prey is my favourite but there you go.
AvP r was my first rated r movie after a few wrestling matches around 7th or 8th grade and while it’s a bad movie I’d take it over the predator any day. It was generic and poorly shot but it’ll always hold a soft spot in my heart. That sewer scene was enjoyable. It just would have been better if it was set in the future. The predator seemed like such a missed opportunity with that great cast and crew.
Ive commented before, but for this one i must admit, ive always loved arnold in this. Im about as obsessed with his filmography...but this role was so epic. He was great as a teminator, but in this role he could be human.
I more or less really agree with the video! Maybe it's because I was born in 1983, but I have a real appreciation for practical effects. I rather liked Prey's blend of practical and CG, I think anyone's hopes for a purely practically done Predator movie....you can let that go. I would prefer it too but I don't see any exec signing off on any such movie without CG unfortunately.
If it bleeds we can kill it.” Is a great call back line
It’s like “I have a bad feeling about this” from starwars
When Star Wars put that in every one it wasn’t for nostalgia baiting, it was already a running gag. I hate the current trend of putting the lines in to please memes and the internet
@@FullFatVideos mhhh gonna have to disagree.
I watched the first predator movie so many freaking times that I can't watch it anymore because of burnout lmao. Absolute masterpiece.
An absolute classic
Videos since Full Fat has mentioned the MCU in a non MCU related video: O
love ya man for real but like the MCU jab came out of nowhere haha
As a predator fan I loved your video!👍👍
Thank you!!!
There's a great Predator comic where they're on Earth during the Norse period. I think that could be a good option for adaptation since it's already developed so they'd just have to build upon that. Also it'd be in a locale we've never seen before.
👏🏾 we have the same list order 👏🏾 That top 3 is great!
Right on
Man if you would have put pred 2 in 2nd i would have 100% agreed! Great rank bro!
I liked when the one guy shouted "Get to the choppas" and the warband ran and picked up their axes.

Really enjoyed this. I'm an old fuck and grew up on this and great nostalgia at the end.
I loved The Predator, but when I watched it I didn’t know that it was not a comedy.
I'm in your boat, I watched it as a comedy and had a pretty good time with it
This is the first time I heard that story about Jesse The Body Ventura and Arnold Schwarzenegger. That s*** is so f****** funny. That is Arnold at his absolute best. Jesse must have felt so small when he found out what really happened.
I’m sorry all those people claiming prey is the best movie are just wrong. Where in prey does somebody claim to be a sexual tyrannosaurus? I rest my case.
A fine point
I have never really bought any of the more "popular" criticism of Predators.
Sure, it was marketed poorly, but most movies were marketed poorly back then. (They gavel away the biggest twist in Terminator; Salvation that same season)
But, Predator starts off the strongest, since the first one, with the main characters being introduced by watching them waking up in free fall. To the amazing idea of the Game Preserve Planet, it's up in the top 3, for me, still. 👍
Would love to see them revisit the concept of AVP again
This is strangely exactly my list
I would say the reason the predators dont use the "predator killer" suit is because they have an honour code whereas humans clearly don't
Good list. Prey is where it belongs. Although I'd put Predator 2 over Predators but nothing touches the first film, period
I agree with your list, Predators is so dope 2 me
The rank is
1. Prey
2. Predators
3. Predator
4. AVP
5. AVPR
6. Predator 2
7. The Predator
Predator third? Hahahaah
I literally can't be mad at this ranking in the slightest cause mine is almost the exact same.
Just flip AvP:R and The Predator(2018) and this is my exact ranking for the franchise
Yeah, I'm not sure Shane Black was to blame for The Predator's failings, as the charm of his other movies you've mentioned was nowhere to be found. It probably was indeed a studio butcher job, but at the same time I can't really tell what would've been salvaged if Black had finished the project on his own terms, since there are very few redeeming factors to be found in the finished product.
But regarding your ranking of Prey: I think you should've given it a bit more time before making this video, as I'm pretty sure it's better than Predators, and on-par with Predator 2 - for completely different reasons. Predator 2 is schlocky fun, but doesn't add a lot of personality to the hunter, while Prey has loads of personality, and harkens back to the lore established in Predator 2, regarding history. Predators, for as far as I can tell, hasn't any specific personality at all, and while the idea of making a standalone picture is interesting, it's not developed to its full potential at all.
Prey is just “okay” it has a lot of issues, but my biggest problem with the movie that keeps me from considering it to be “good” or “really good” The fact that the worst parts of the movie all have to do with the Predator, and the scenes he’s featured in. Usually it’s the other way around.
I do think the actor for predator moves a little bit block like I guess. Was a little stiff and that took my out of the experience, but other that, I loved it.
I felt the exact opposite than you did. I thought the Predator had all the best moments and the human characters were laughably one dimensional and were saddled with bad writing and cringe dialogue. The main actress was not great and was my least favorite part of the film. Which is a hard thing to get over when she is the protagonist. It is interesting how we both feel the movie was "okay" but in totally different ways.
@Tristan Devlin The world be building in character work wasn’t as bad as most modern movies, show love and thunder being just one example. I agree that if I’m judging it as sternly as I would judgment day, die hard, aliens, or predator, then the character work and world building is absolute garbage. But I would say the predator moments suck ass, the CGI shit, also why make him CGI at all, doesn’t make any sense, the design of the predator is shit, his weaponry makes zero sense, his fight scenes are clearly influenced bysuperhero movies and it’s cringe, they are overly choreographed and more focused on some sort of “cool” factor rather than tension. They don’t try shotting him in mystery, or suspense. They don’t get one thing right with this predator.
when theres a trend we jump on. when your views go up enogh
nord vpn jums on you. nice editing.
The reason Cameron said AvP was his third favourite Predator film, is because AvP was the THIRD Predator film meaning it's his least favourite
Predators is cool. Prey was awesome, best since the original.
The best thing about Shane Blacks version is that in her real life future, Olivia Munn got the funniest man (John Mulaney) on earth as a partner. Lucky gal!
I hated how The Predator blew Mac’s head up, then next scene it’s in 1 piece.
Putting prey at #4 is criminal
CIA got you pushing too many pencils. PURE CLASS. 👽
For me it’s Predator at number 1, Prey at 2 and Predators at 3. I enjoyed AVP, but Predator 2, AVPR and The Predator are just plain shit in my opinion
In a tier list, I would put Predators and Prey on the same level. Predators in front and Prey on the end as both films add sub-species similar to Neanderthal and man. The Prey artist commented that this sub-species comes from a desert biodome hence its mouth was altered for bone crushing. I like to think that the "supers" are actually from a swamp or amphibious biodome because their mandibles are so lengthy that their face takes on an octopus grip. I put AvP on the tier below Prey and Predators. Requiem and The Predator of course at rock bottom with Predator and Predator 2 at the very top. Something people miss about predator 2 is it adds body types to the predator species similar to how humans come in mesomorphs, ectomorphs, and endomorphs. City Hunter is a different body type than Jungle Hunter both being the same sub-species.

I agree throw the first one is the masterpiece!
An applause to you sir for sticking to your opinion, for me personally prey is ok decent, would like it to spin more predator v samurai/viking movies, but the critic consensus was way off trying to put it on 1 & 2 level, i did not expect predators to take number 2 but i can understand why, but for me predator 2 is flawed in a awesome way while predators is more competent but not as exciting, the original predator is just lighting in a bottle, and even the best sequel is just playing catch up.
I thought I was the only one that liked Predators. It was a solid movie.
My personal list is Predator > Prey > daylight > pretty much the rest of them, the order barely matters at this point.
I’d say P2 is better than Predators, just for the 80’s absurdity factor. Great list, great vid!
requiem should be above the predator only for wolf as he is easily the best predator weve had on screen, the little glimpses of yautja prime are great too
