The animated movie released this weekend on Hulu. It has four segments. One segment takes place in Scandinavia in 849, and involves a girl boss viking. The second segment takes place in 17th century Japan, and involves two Japanese brothers. The third segment is a dog fight between a Predator ship and a US Air Wing, and a latino kid from Florida defeats a Predator. The last segment is the three of them are taken to the Predator homeworld with them fighting each other and a super big Predator.
The viking segment is super girl boss cringe. As a normal sized older woman named Ursa just plows through multiple enemies at once. In one scene she cuts a dude in half with one swing of an axe. Her and her squad of 5, including a very small woman defeat a company sized army of vikings. She fights using two broken shields and is just mutilating dudes left and right. When the Predator arrives he kills everyone with the two women injuring the alien. Every white dude dies. At one point she picks up an anchor by herself without making a sound. And defeats the Predator.
The second segment is the Japanese one. This segment had no women in it at all. The two brothers, one is a Samurai, the other is a ninja, have to fight together to beat the Predator.
The third segment is set in 1942 during WW2. A latino kid is drafted and becomes a mechanic/pilot during the war. He ends up fixing a broke plane and flying to warn his Air Wing about a strange bogey. Everyone in the wing is white and from Texas, they all die. The kid survives with the plane falling apart, and defying all physics by holding onto wings and jumping around while the plane is attacked by the Predator. He somehow figures out the Predator relies on heat to see and ends defeating the Predator ship.
The last segment involves taking all three survivors to the Predator homeworld to fight each other for a chance to fight the Predator boss. The fighter pilot somehow figures out the alien tech to free the three of them and fly the alien ship. The viking woman ends up staying behind to help the males escape. The movie ends with a bunch of alien ships rising in the air to hunt down the escapees.
TL:DR - Predator: Killer of Killers is not only woke, it's just a bad movie. The animation is middle of the road, and doesn't really help the movie. It does have a fair amount of cartoon gore, if that's your thing. The Predators from each segment have no consistent look and look completely different. There are some call backs to the movies. The flintlock from the end of the second movie pops up. I say just skip it
Yeah this is an absolute travesty, and the amount of young people I see hyping this up as "the best Predator movie ever!" is more disheartening than the Predator franchise being turned into woke trash.
When I pointed out all of the illogical scenarios and massive plot holes that you outlined in your rundown, today's youth generation just responded with "Who cares? It was entertaining". Basically confirming that Idiocracy really is becoming a reality, and people are just too stupid to use basic logical reasoning.
Dan Trachtenberg is a woke hack who has turned the Predator franchise into just another conduit for spreading "The Message".
His depiction of Predators include them being absolute retards who have no idea how their own equipment works, and having humans understand their equipment better than the Predators.
While the AvP films and Predators had their flaws, at least they respected the Predators enough that they were competent and skilled in using their equipment, but here -- Dan has made it where NONE of the Predators understand how their own equipment works. Yet some uneducated, Saturday morning cartoon spic could figure out Predator tech just by closing his eyes?
Yeah, this whole movie was horrible. The amount of people I see defending it on normie sites is the real black pill; that normies just accept corporate slop without questioning it. It's funny because people like Nerdrotic or Critical Drinker could go either way with this. The amount of people who defended Prey is also equally embarrassing -- some 45 kg teenager surviving a bear trap and defeating three grown men and then manhandling a space alien with her rope and hatchet was just pure superhero fantasy. Yet, I see so many people just overlook that to praise that film, and I'm seeing the same thing with Killer of Killers.
It was inevitable though, since the original Predator was the apex of masculinity. It was about Tier 1 operators put in an impossible situation and having to buck up and adapt on the fly. What made the film so great was that the Predator was just that much better, and it was to highlight that even the best of humanity didn't really stand a fair chance against a Predator. But with Dan Trachtenberg at the helm, Predators are now Saturday morning cartoon villains who are goofballs that can be easily beaten by a middle-aged wench with a broken shield.
