MORE WOKENESS!
While this film IS going to be an absolute coat-hanger abortion of a beloved sci-fi franchise (zero doubt in the mind of any clear thinking person with no agenda, Iād wager), I donāt remember anything about the lead being gay, just that she wanted to be a warrior. The bigger issue should be that of a child with zero technology or guns (itās pre-european btw) defeating a 9 ft tall killing machine with tons of Alien tech. Not who she may or may not scissor with. The issue is that since Predator 2, lead humans have gotten progressively softer and so have the Preds, making them easier to defeat. It should go the other way. This woman should be say, mid/late 20ās, at the height of her strength and a well trained hunter/warrior maybe even with some mysticism to go up against a Pred. But what do I know? I just have a speck of common sense. Given the current trends, all sensible ideas go right in the dumpster.
Those arenāt coincidences either
Iām curious whatās in them syringes they giving out
The tallest preds on screen were 7ā4 , so 9 foot is completely false š§šš»
I can listen to your misogyny all day , but lies about predator!? Thats where I draw the fucking line
Probably the thing people think they are taking it to stop š
Well, Kevin Peter Hall was 7ā3" and in the suit, he was much taller. Iāll go with say, 8ā. I canāt find any actual photos of him in costume next to a tape measure, but I am basing that on BTS pics and video of him in costume, with the biomask off. The head is pretty tall, plus heās wearing prosthetic feet.
And if not liking the idea of a child defeating a Pred makes me a misogynist, then fuck it, Iāll wear that t-shirt, cuz thatās a shitty idea.
You see the women is gonna kill the predator because itās writhing on the floor since it got mauled by a bear
Nah, if they go the bear route it would be best if the Pred kills it but loses access to its plasma caster during the fight. Things like that should be used to draw it out and impose limiting factors, not as a straight surrogate for the protagonists own heroism.
Thatās what I define as a technical win. Because while technically, the child may land the final blow to the Pred, the bear did all the work. And, to stick with the womenās, we can call that specist-plagirism because not only would she be taking credit for something elseās efforts, but due to the location the story will take place in, it would be a āblackā or ābrownā bear doing all that damage to the Predator! Thatās just not acceptable, so the whole film should be cancelled! š
OMGā¦ I was not even aware that they made a version with V2 body! Sweet stuff!
Are we talking about a native american summoning nature spirits to fight the predator now?
I wouldnāt put it past them but just terrible.
Iād like to know your opinion on Japanese cinema, particularly Westerns, where asian actors interpret white american charactersā¦ Why is it okay for them in their cinematic industry do it, but not ok in America? Why is it okay in Bollywood for hindi actors to interpret american characters, but not okay for americans to do the same in hollywood? Is it Hollywood any better or more important than other cinemas? Isnāt assuming that, racist in itself?
Japanese society is not a multicultural and multi ethnic one (which is a problem of its own, because it originates in Japanese imperialism, racism, colonialism and xenophobia that are all still very much present). Itās literally an ethnostate. So lack of representation there is a problem, but a different one.
Boo hoo shop put up a Japanese-only sign.
Japan is chill and leftists should go outside more to experience actual racism other than people giving them funny looks.
Even Japanese that arenāt born there will never be considered Japanese. The world is not a utopian marxist melting pot, people segregate themselves into their own communities in america even and america IS the melting pot.
Had a better time in āracist xenophobic imperialistā Japan in a month than I did two days in glorious authoritarian china where they will openly just waste your time for committing the ultimate crime of being both black and american.
But america isnāt either. You go to big cities and sure, thereās people from everywhere around the world, but in the vast majority of cities in the USA that is not the case. More than 70% of the US population is still white, the other big group is not even African American, but latinos, which also happen to have a lot of āwhiteā people among them, although, aside from Argentinians, most latinos are mixed european/african/native-american, regardless of their skin color (example, my older brother is white, Iām brown, my mom is white, my dad is black, my grandad was white, my grandmother was brown, I have cousins in all colors, my wife is white, her mom is brown, and the list goes like that for pretty much everyone else.)
So you actually have no idea about Japanese racism and its impact on small ethnic minorities that live there? Well, thatās not really a surprise, I guess.
Well, good thing that, letās say, Koreans in Japan donāt encounter racism that literally ruins their lives on a systemic level.

Boo hoo Nazis have boycotted Jewish shops.
Fucking hell.
Reading all of this game me cancer
I love that almost nobody talks about how Ripley was a space trucker, just like any trucker probably could swear up a storm and hold her own in a fist fight from day one
