Prey is what Predator is about: A human overcoming an overwhelming alien adversary by learning and adapting. The protagonist was a bit of a mary sue (sioux?), but there are no realistic fights in action movies anymore anyway. It's not like men without superpowers are always portrayed realisticly.

Best Predator movie in over 20 years. Good blueprint for further movies. It's super easy, no cinematic universe with overcomplicated connections needed, just take any period in time or story and just throw a predator in there: WW1/2, sure. Pirates? I'll take it! Feudal Japan? Hell yeah! Viking Invasion of England? Let's fucking go!

"Prey" was really good. I'm a fan of the Predator films and this one amends for the dreadful Predator-Upgrade. The bear scene was bit questionable, but otherwise well done.

I'm optimistic for the upcoming D&D movie:

Set in the Forgotten Realms, Neverwinter and Icewind Dale, going all out in the most popular setting, cast looks great. I'm hyped. + Show Spoiler +

Gimme a decent Drizzt movie in the future and i can die in peace.

Just finished the movie and I loved it.
I actually liked the Predator design as well, it looked unique. I really liked the Predator’s mask and weapons here as well, I would’ve liked more insight into that part though because it seemed like this Predator, although highly advanced, was less advanced compared to the other ones in the franchise. He didn’t even have the plasma gun.

It was a good addition to the Predator franchise, I just hope they dive into the Predator lore more for the next one.

Just

watched The Good the Bad and the Ugly, and it's absolutely amazing

IMHO the best movie ever made.

Hopefully the DND movie is at least ok.

The rather humorous not taking itself so serious approach from the Marvel films gets a bit stale, but might fit D&D very well. I mean who has serious D&D adventures?

Any StarCraft fan should be a fan of these movies imo.

I found it fascinating to explore the origins of the "Jim Raynor" and "Sarah Kerrigan" characters in the minds of the Blizzard top creatives.
For Jim Raynor a look at Jason Patric in the movies "Rush" and "Narc" gives us an insightful look at how Blizzard saw the Jim Raynor role in the SC universe.

For Sarah Kerrigan... this Nancy Kerrigan incident captures her origins....

too bad Nancy Kerrigan didn't morph into a god like Zerg and summon a million zerglings down onto earth during the next Olympic games. The Zerglings would prolly go after Tonya Harding and that Jeff Galuli before massacring every human at the Olympics.

Bullet Train was alright. Felt that it was 10 minutes longer than it should have been….but i say that with every movie so maybe i should settle for a medium drink

Thoroughly enjoyed The Northman. Its a good mix of Norse myths, depiction of Viking life, and good old-fashioned revenge story. And it helps that the actors bring such enthusiasm into their roles. I couldn't finish watching the director's other movies (The Witch and The Lighthouse) but perhaps I should.

i just love how slow moviing Jackie Brown was...
and my goodness Pam Grier was so smoking hot.

The slow pace permits the viewer to carefully contemplate the details laid out before them.

Watched Vesper the other day. Solid SF movie. Nothing truly stellar or ground-breaking but it does have some interesting concepts and is definitely worth a watch. Especially if you like the post-apocalyptic stuff.

Damn TWO movies... France doesn't play when it comes to films based off books apparently. Only problem is the wait.

You mean the rumors where the plot of this movie revolves around Indy traveling back in time so that his younger self can sacrifice himself, thus erasing him from existence and making way for a new, better, female Indy?

I really wish Disney would stop running franchises to the ground one after another... At least with Star Wars we got a bit of hope with Andor but it might be too little, too late.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to drop a quick recommendation for a movie I recently watched. "The Gentlemen" directed by Guy Ritchie is a must-see. It's got it all - crime, comedy, drama, and an all-star cast. Matthew McConaughey gives a killer performance as the marijuana kingpin looking to cash out, and the twists and turns will keep you on the edge of your seat. I highly recommend checking it out, it's one of the best movies I've seen in a while. And very stylish. Let me know what you think of it!

9/10

PS. I love this scene!

And the bbq table ofcourse.

If anyone's interested season 2 of Carnival Row is available on Prime now. It's a pretty good TV show if you like dark fantasy/horror stuff, starring Orlando Bloom.
