They didn’t use real natives

But I know what u mean

I want to see where the predator got the spear from

we seen this Nigga on 3 continents and 2 planets

when will he come to the motherland and get this work.
Nigga yes they did. Go look up the cast
 
That’s what I expected. When they started speaking English I was like WTF?! That made it feel kinda low budget.
unless you under the comanche language, what purpose would that serve? In fact offering it in the Comanche language only serves a super small, tiny slice of viewers. Assuming everyone who understands the Comanche language watches it in Comanche , it would still be a small, tiny subset of viewers.

I expected them to speak their language (Uto-Aztecan).
Shit they had them damn French speaking theirs :confused:
Worked perfectly with this Movie (GREAT DAMN MOVIE TOO I might add)
I also had issues with the CGI, shit looked too cartoony at times

Originality and realism to help the viewer immerse themselves into the story that’s what purpose it serves. It’s not about serving the few Comanche who may or may not watch it. But they didn’t add the Comanche dialogue to the speaking roles because Americans viewers are stupid, illiterate and finicky about reading subtitles that they would lose interest in the story.

The French spoke French but the Natives spoke English and viewers must pretend their speaking in their Native tongue while in English. Bogus and hella bootsy.

Fuck all that. I want to be able to understand the movie and if its in a language I don't understand, I'm not fucking it. English or nothing for me. I don't need no damn authenticity or realism in a movie about a space alien who comes to earth and fuck with native Americans. ...hard pass. Just entertain me and speaking a non English language is not the way to go. Hollywood ain't trying to hear that shit. they want asses in seats.. all the realism / authencity shit is secondary.
 
I believe we woul. We are such a war mongering nation & species that we would turn all these big ass guns & weapons on a predators and truly fuck them up. We practice on each others for years so we would really go there. Not on a one on one fight but as far as blasting him with shit, we would do the same shit to them with the quickness.
Bruh they have invisible cloaking device.. Lol
 
It was OK... It wasn't the greatest, but it certainly wasn't the worst.

I took several issues with it, but I was being really nit-picky:

1) The Comanche were all about horses. They were probably the best bareback horse riders alive. They were one of the most feared tribes west of the Mississippi; and the were the enemies of the Apache (who were masters at guerilla fighting). Yet in the movie, the French had more horses than the Comanche. The Comanche fought and dominated damn near every tribe they came into contact with because they were masters of the horse.

2) If the so-called lion had o'le girl trapped in the tree, she falls yet the lion doesn't kill her... Yeah Ok.

3) The Comanche braves don't know the difference between bear tracks and Yautja tracks (I'm making allowances for them not knowing what a Yautja was).

4) Once she found out that the Yautja couldn't see her, it would have made more sense to go get other warriors, and they all take that shit, then hunt the Yautja down.

5) O'le girl was not believable as a warrior. Not at all to me. The story should have been built around her brother. I liked his character best.

Like I said, it was an ok movie for streaming. I wouldn't have paid to see it at the theater though.
 
Also too... We have to stop believing that these so called "indigenous" people that they're are putting in front of us are the real deal. These people are from European descent (Five Dollar Indians).

If you see them in real life, some of them are lighter than the DeBarges are.

These are some of the real indigenous people:

They are white washing these people out of existence. It's being called, "Paper Genocide."

Why do y’all think all Indigenous people are one giant group? There’s thousands of different tribes and they don’t all look the same. Some are darker than others some are light. You can clearly see these people in the movie are not white

1) I don't think that they are all one giant group. I know better than that.

2) I agree that some are darker and some are lighter.

3) I cannot see that the people in the group are not of "European" descent. The people I see in the movie are light and they have a lot of European blood in them. The movies always use these types of genetics, when they full well could use the other genetics taken from the darker tribes or darker members from the tribes that they do decide to use.

4) Have you heard of Quanah Parker? Probably not. But he was a Comanche chief, one the last, and his mother was a white woman. White folks love to say that they are a descendants of Quanah Parker's band (the Kwahadi ) of Comanche, and not the other bands. Why do you think that is?

5) I've been doing a lot of research on American Indians/Native Americans because I've found out that I'm a descendant of several tribes: A) Choctaw, B) Apache, and C) Comanche. This is coupled with me being a Black man.

So, since I've became aware of my family lineage, I look at a lot of this with a critical eye. Do I get it right all of the time? No, not by far. But, I'm right about this... I bet you that!

U stole my post

he thinks them niggas are the true natives

man fuck outta here
 
It’s funny how nobody mention this nig tech for the most part was better than his future counterparts 300 yrs later

also how the directors completely forgot to do the hang it’s kills upside down.. that was a main part in the first 2 predators

Natives were introduced to horses by european colonizers. So depending on the decade, it would be plausible that the frenchmen had more horses than the comanche.

I believe most of the horses that the Indians of the plains acquired were from the Spanish.

Hernando de Soto came to the Americas at around 1539. I'm sure he brought a lot of horses with them. The movie I think said 1719 or something like that.

But, I'd have to agree with you. Just because the Spanish were here does not mean that the Comanche had mastered the horse at that time or they may not have even heard of the Spanish that early (The movie's timeline).

Good observation, Brother.
 
The movie was pretty good. Not quite theatre worthy, but a really good stream. I feel like less dialog would've worked too. I was skeptical at first, because all I was thinking about was Alien tech vs Native American with bows and spears. But then I thought about and remembered. That Arnold didn't defeat the Predator using a bunch of tech. He use the environment and what he knew about the Predator to outsmart it.

Some of the best parts of the OG movie was the Native American soldier sensing that something was hunting them. He could feel the Predators presence just by being in tune with the Jungle/Nature. I wish they would've fleshed that aspect out a bit more with this movie.
