Yep. Alien had a huge year too. The woke/anti-woke charges are just obscuring the far larger point that people need their hecking franchises to feel safe enough to go the theater.

>>215815391
This movie is doing so well because Prey from the same director was well received, and that was out only in streaming. If it had been out in theaters first it would have made at least decent box office. The animated Pred stuff was also well received. They had the good sense of releasing Badlands in theaters first, after how well Alien Romulus was received.

The movie is woke because every single main character is not like the rest and is oppressed because they are different. Literally the main point of movie is that feelings stronger then skills and actual training/ability.

the predator series has been girlpower flavored since the 90s. they are basically voodoo africans with dreadlocks in space and their tribes are often ruled by 800 pound females. Their culture is based around magical thinking and shamanism which is completely bizare since they are suppose to be a successful space faring race. And it goes without saying, if aliens are spooky scary big black cocks, then preds are evil vagina faces.

If you met a scifi nerd in the 90s who was into aliens versus predators, there was a high chance she was more into the preds than the xenos and anything else in the settings.

There's even a comic series in the 90s where a tiny asian woman named Machiko Noguchi gets adopted by a predator tribe and she has to girl power her way through all the brutal fighting and violence of predator society.

The main Yautja has a more human-like forehead, instead of a big sloped crest above his eyes like in past Predator movies.
That's what it boils down to. They think it makes him look like a black guy and is therefore woke- when the intent was probably just to make him a bit more relatable and expressive and easier for the audience to root for, not for him to be coded as any particular race

She subverted his impression of what being an alpha is

The monkey spits on him first not as disrespect but to territory mark he's not prey, which made her mother not kill im.

Nah she wasn't a baby. Her colony became alien-ified and she fought well and became accepted by predators. This is the first Alien vs Predator comic. Her character is sort of like the black woman in the film, although in the comics she is asian and it is in the future, not the present.

I feel like you people are all just getting way too nitpicky about what "woke" means nowadays. An "unstoppable alien badass with a cute android girl on his back against evil corpos and said alien's piece-of-shit dad" is the stuff of Straight men dreams. The problem is you all look at one small insignificant detail and declare that the whole thing is woke. What are even using as the as the metric for determining how woke it is? Where are the rainbow flags? Where are the trannies? Where is the fag who explains what his pronouns are then everyone claps??? Stop drinking the political kool aid and looking for excuses to not like a film. If you hate a film, just simply say you hate it instead of looking for nonexistent politics to justify your answer.

I feel like we are on the rebound, where so many influencers and grifters have made their audience into instant knee jerk reactors and people are just moving away from it.

If it flops, it is probably because people just simply don't care anymore because most entertainment is online and free now. If it does well, well it had enough of something to get there. Social media is a pointless place to discuss movies now.

I wish that was it but unfortunately it is not. The thing is a lot of these people are not being entertained by laughing at these films. How do I know? Well you just read their comments. See, entertainment isn't about entertaining anymore. It isn't this movie vs that movie. It is streaming vs podcast vs video game vs doomscrolling. Modern technology is the battle for your attention. How do you illicit strong attention grabbing material? Well via algorithms that make you feel horny, angry or sad all the time. But after a while people burn out. Hence why so many people fall back on sitcoms or old one and done shows, because the pressure and expectations is off.

Ain’t that woke, desu. It’s absolutely trash, but mainly from being Disneyfied (quirky manic pixie Elle platonic friend, marketable pet sidekick, final boss is an evil corporation). It does threaten to get woke a few times but there’s so little time spent on characters compared to fight scenes it never really goes anywhere.

It’s still an absolute garbage fire in terms of what Predator as a series should aim to be about, but I had fun with it. Actual turn your brain off movie. It’s a lot like watching someone’s game of Monster Hunter.

There should be no need to say "the regime in power" if it's always the same regime of The Jews in power everywhere, forever, and the power never changes hands

they are not eternal and not all powerful and to think that is self defeating.

Hollywood films would still being do well if they had not lost the trust of the audience. There were eight films that made a billion dollars in 2019 and one that made over two billion. The difference with streaming and social media is if you do not like something you can just turn it off, but going to a movie is a bigger commitment. Asian markets still have trust with their audience. There is no "rebound" just because a handful of movies do well at the box office.
>>
>>215819693
I know the trust thing is something people love to talk about but truly I think it just comes down to the transition of entertainment. A few percentage of the population stopped because of trust but considering the slop that is still successful, it isn't like general audiences gained taste. Wednesday is a massively boring contrived piece of entertainment, but Jenna Ortega being cute and a TikTok viral dance trend made it hugely successful. Theatres are dirty, smell, expensive and for what? A streaming service is cheaper. Covid was like the final straw and catalyst, box office still down 25% since then because people realised how pointless theatres are.
>>
>>215814906
>Why is this happening?
Because it appeals to the lowest common denominator.
Essentially, everyone who would never have willingly gone to see the first & best Predator film (1987) upon its release.
The first film appealed to the strong.
The previous two (or three), to weaklings.
Anyhow, much like the Alien franchise, only the first three films will years from now be considered canon.
Everything else, faggoty slop aimed at little girls & manchildren.

Tom Cruise was in several movies that were flops including Edge of Tomorrow, which many people that actually saw it, enjoyed. Then Top Gun: Maverick of all things, a quite by the numbers sequel, did majorly well. Then Mission Impossible final films were awful too, despite all the supposed hype around that series ending. I don't think woke or this or that matters. I just think marketing this shit is all over the place and they can't honestly tell what will take off and what will crash and burn.

>>215821370
They've admitted openly in the past they didn't have complete scripts for those movies - they think up set pieces they wanted to do then filled in the 'story' around them as they went along after the fact..
The last one especially is a choppy mess because they were trying to walk away from most of what it's first half was doing due to that already under performing, so you get this big stinky flashback filled nostalgia slop instead
>>
Sick of buzzwords replacing thoughts.
My issue is even if this could be an okay film, it's wearing the skin of Predator, which is decaying and doesn't fit the Disney skeleton beneath.
Robert Rodriguez's Predators film introduced that the Yautja race is split and clans are at war, which gives this the only way out: half the race has become retards(the 'Disney Yautja'), and the Yautja we actually like are still around.
That's good, because the plot details people have been talking about are pure character assassination if they're meant to represent common Yautja, just like Prey was, and that dogshit animated anthology.
>>
>>215821633
>They've admitted openly in the past they didn't have complete scripts for those movies
When things were on film everything had to be meticulously planned out ahead of time, film is expensive.
I don't want to blame this entirely on digital but I think it is a large part of the problem. They know they can just record everything and cgi anything in post and it makes them lazy.
>>
>>215821633
They originally had this whole subplot of:
>We can't trust the AI, we got to trust people.
So in the film, he asks for an aircraft carrier and the President writes a note to the Commander who is a friend of hers. This cut subplot was meant to be all about the human connection, the human trust chain, towards defeating the AI. But they cut most of it. So there is no reason to have him go to that aircraft carrier, aside from the fact they shot it. He could have gone straight to the sub and nothing would change in the plot.

>Here is guy from first film.
>Benji mentions it.
>Then he has a scene with Ethan.
Constant double down on scenes repeating the same information.

>Montage of past films.
>Here he is with the President and the other people mention some of his past exploits too.
More double down. The same thing, then again.

You could easily cut 40 minutes out of that film and nothing would change. Most of the cast had nothing to do.

They 100% left that in the film because in the trailer they had part of that scene:
>YOU GAVE HIM AN AIRCRAFT CARRIER
And that's the only reason. To sound epic.

If anything it makes him look less like a black guy. You could drop the original Predator into Ethiopia and nobody would be able to tell the difference.

Wow. I'm glad the writers gave themselves a lore reason for the terrible costume design. *GLUG GLUG GLUG* more slop please!

>>215821698
I think it was Rebecca Ferguson who said she got herself written out because the process of making one of those things is such an inefficient waste of time. She'd have to sit idle a huge amount of time just waiting for them to write what her character would actually do, and it's a year old shoot so she had to be on call and unable to work on anything else at the same time

There’s anons that are forcing contrarianism in every predator post, so I’d say it’s definitely viral marketing. Everything I’ve heard about this movie has been “it’s been very divided with fans”

In one thread I tested by posted random stuff and had someone disagreeing with everything I said no matter how miniscule. Doesn’t seem like regular /tv/ trolls

>>215821907
The budget was over 100 mil. It still has to break even. It’s only a success for predator which isn’t a big deal when the entire series is mostly dogshit that needs to be propped up by alien to be interesting
