Looking back, what I love most about these Schwarzenegger classics is that he's always supposed to be this all-American, red white and blue dude with the generic American sounding name, and yet...for some reason that's never explained, he just happens to have a very thick Austrian accent.
It's a damn shame that they didn't include his Austrian accent in the German dubs of his movies. I could only appreciate his accent when I watched the movies in the OT.
I'm surprised James didn't mention the marketing of the movie. From what my mom told me, the movie was marketed as an action-packed war movie, which surprised many people in theaters when the predator is finally revealed. That's why they have that fake-out scenes in the beginning.
@@kayden3845 Eh, horror and horror-adjacent movies do it all the time. Recall that all the ad campaigns for both _Scream_ and _Psycho_ displayed the first victim as if they were the main protagonists of their respective films. Also (correct me if I’m wrong), I wanna say a lot of the promotion for the original _Alien_ implied that Dallas was the movie’s Big Hero instead of Ripley.
@@MemesToa to be fair, its incredibly hard to make a case of false advertising in a movie. Unless they advertised it as a fantasy movie about magical girls it isn't false advertising. As long as it IS stated its rated R, is part of the Action genre (or horror if it ever comes up in trailers etc*), and has the advertised actors in it at some point, its fine. Actually just had to write an essay about this so, just wanted to add in here too since I found it interesting
I think the gunfight scene was there for 2 reasons: to trick the audience into thinking it’s another commando type movie, and to establish just how deadly the team is, so when you see how easily the predator kills them, it raises the stakes for the final fight
Something you might’ve missed is that when Arnold asks the pred “what the hell are you” the predator actually responds asking him the same, pretty cool
And it felt like he'd learned enough to even add inflection to it instead of just having some sort of parody repeat. Creepiest part of the movie to me when I first watched it with my Dad when I was literally seven.
I never actually noticed that until you mentioned it, so I went back to the scene and listened hard. And you were right! Thanks for adding one more reason for me to love this film
As a kid I always thought ahh he’s just mimicking the line but as I grew up I realised that the predator was stunned and shocked and was actually asking Dutch what he was , compared to the rest of his team he was THE PRIZE
I like how Predator is basically a 80s slasher movie but instead of topless sorority girls, it's topless muscley men. Dutch is a Final Girl, you can't tell me otherwise.
Jean Claude leaving was honestly the best thing for this movie. They ended up changing the Predators look to what it is in the movie. I also honestly believe Peter Hall being the Predator was the final puzzle piece in making this movie a masterpiece.
The Predator rhetorically repeating Dutch's question, "What the Hell are you?" was pretty much the climax of the movie, as they both understand each-other, and it got no mention. Lol.
I really like when the 54 soldiers died, james doesn’t talk bout them dying, he talks about how this works and doesn’t work in the scene. I liked that a lot
Infinity Albi never remind anyone of that movie ever. It never actually existed it was burned as a script and all involved given amnesia to erase all evidence.😑
16:05 The Pred isn't smashed by a different trap. He's smashed by the counterweight of the same trap he just discovered and avoided. The suspended log, if triggered as intended, will drop and act as the force required to pull Pred up into the disguised spikes. This will never get read but I don't care. I love this movie. Can't wait for the Prey Kill Count!
it is actually a probability he did end up liking it. If it leaves the bodies the bird would be following his kills and him. since it´s alive the predator doesn´t mind it. after this happening a while they probably know eachother.
11:05 Seen this movie so many times but it wasn't until recently I realized that when Mac was saying "I'm gonna have me some fun" over and over he was actually singing the lyrics to that Little Richard song they were listening to in the chopper "Long Tall Sally".
first kill in alien: a hugely iconic kill that went down in history as one of the best cinematic deaths, that defines the whole franchise. first predator kill: Pilot Pete
Fun fact: Billy’s character in real life had security guards hired, by the movie company, to protect other fellow actors on the set from him when he got drunk!!!
The Predator had so much character with just the use of movements. Like I could feel the "do you think I'm an idiot?" in the scene where he goes around the spike trap. Just a great performance.
I remember seeing this in my grandads TV stand full of VHS tapes along with Lethal Weapon. Me and my mum used to go there every day since my gran died and there wasn't much for me to do. I asked him if I could put on his tapes and he said yes. Even when I asked to put on predator despite the fact that I was only 8 years old. I remember asking him why Dillon's gun was still firing even though he lost his arm and he explained how nerves worked. I remember him telling me what the big gun Jesse Ventura was using is. Unfortunately he passed away when I was nineteen. Guy was a legend.
I sorry for your lose he sounds like the coolest grandpa I ever heard I wish I had a grandpa just like him but I'm fine with the grandpa I have now and I would never trade him for anything in the world
For the short story the blood fusion for his injury which he sustained in a car accident had HIV, and he succumbed to AIDS related pneumonia. I still don’t know why they didn’t do a blood test on the blood given to Kevin.
@@chubbyphatty9370 That's insane! I've wondered for a while whether people tested blood donors to make sure that they don't just hurt the patients more. I guess in his case they didn't. Poor man
@@chubbyphatty9370 That was surprisingly common in the 80s and early 90s, and there was a big scandal with Bayer selling products for conditions like hemophilia which they knew to be contaminated with the virus.
Predator is the best villian IMO. Their traditions are honorble and they have respect in the way they fight. Don't attck unarmed, don't attack pregnant women ETC. Love this movie so much
Predators: Has a culture based on the honor of the hunt Also predators: use invisibility, a plasma cannon, heat vision, futuristic weapons, and a mini nuke
Think about the US military. We're polite to a fault and show everyone respect, but can destroy everything within our sight, and at the drop of a hat. I know it's paradoxical, but not unheard of. I have gone from trying to kill someone to literally defending his life with my own.
I think the credits are pretty genius as most of the cast, the ones who died, are the ones laughing and having a good time. While Arnold is the only serious one because he was the "Final Girl" in the scenario. It makes a ton of sense and I'm glad they decided to do that
@@ginke1996 Guatemala, 1981-1982. The US-backed and installed military government of Éfrain Ríos Montt targets Mayan villages with US training and support. At least 42,275 are killed.
The Predator saw those guys using their guns and killing. Probably, if he caught one of those guys throwing away their weapons like cowards, he would skin them alive.
To be fair, if your squad leader decides to do something without vocal orders you're usually supposed to just follow suit, so when Dutch just went "aw shit" and opened up everybody was supposed to suppress fire like crazy people. This is oddly one of the more... confusing military movies. They got nearly everything correct so they obviously had real guys on board, but then it had to be "movie-fied" and also be a horror film, so there are a FEW tiny "dumb decisions" but not alot comparatively. Babbling. Be safe out there Thomas, very nice to meet you :)
@@wren7195 if I remember, one Vietnam vet story I've heard is some soldiers firing all their munitions to scare off any ambushers, I think they called Bullet time or something. Not doctrine or official tactics, but very plausible
@@chaosagent_0106 Sounds like it, plausible I mean. It'd depend on the situation of course, especially since if you're about to be ambushed it's because the enemy already knows your position and you don't know theirs (so firing like madmen won't give you away but you're not sure of the enemy position so you're just wasting rounds at that point)... but if they've got a fix on you and you don't know their location, just firing randomly won't discourage trained personnel waiting to drop you. But I can see it in some situations, rare though. Vietnam was a *MESS.* But yeah in the Army at least, if squad leader opens up in a direction you're supposed to as well. The idea being if it's SO sudden you don't have time to give orders but you know you have to shoot suppressing fire, it's understood by everyone to follow suit, mixture of direct and enfilade fire. Best wishes ChaosAgent, thanks for talking with me! I love learning from people like yourself. Be well
You know James, I feel that your interjections of humor and behind the scenes facts (like how the hell of predator camo was done) that really makes your channel unique and fun. Keep up your incredible work and say hi to your cat for me 👍🏻
Phyco Buzzaxe21 - Heck yeah! Where’s the glory in killing the weak? From a Predator POV, this is basically murder foreplay, complete with bedroom eyes and suggestive banter.
I think my favorite part of this movie, besides the one liners and the Predator moments, is the great cast. I’d love to see Carl Weathers and Bill Duhe in more stuff!
predator might be evil but he is a respectable creature....he did a fair 1v1 (edit: thanks for the likes and your opinion, I'm interested to know more)
yes because there are codes for predators tradition: dont attack the unarmed, dont attack the pregnant, destroy the captured tech from them, they shall die if failed by being a suicide bomber.
JCVD played the FIRST incarnation of the predator. That suit, along with him, was jettisoned because the director rightfully thought the suit was horrible. The production shut down for a bit so that Stan Winston, recommended by Arnie from his Terminator experience, could step in to create a whole new predator. Fun fact: on the plane with Winston, James Cameron happened to mention he'd always wanted to see something with mandibles. Stan did a sketch on the plane and the rest is history.
Yeah, I read that too. Apparently Danny Glover knew a bunch of them and asked them to come to the shoot. There's a vid on YT somewhere of all of them dancing on the predator ship as an outtake. LOL
I think they had that action scene in the beginning to show how skilled this team is in combat, and then of course they get they’re ass beaten by this predator, which shows how powerful the predator is as well.
Awe, I liked "Predator 2." Some like the first, but the second expanded the lore, gave us the iconic scene of a xenomorph skull on a Predator ship, and Danny Glover gave a more human, vulnerable performance to Arnold.
Xander Lowe Predator 2 was a fine follow up. Compared to the other current Predator films, included the two AVP films, for me it ranks 2nd best, 3rd place at worst. Lots of memorable moments and actors. Ruben Blades, Gary Busey, and can't forget Bill Paxtons hat trick. Should be a fun kill count.
i don't get the hate for predator 2. it was a fun sci fi movie and a good follow up. it reminds me of many of the predator comics like concrete jungle that take place in urban settings.
@@supremekingace9993 im no fortnite sweat and im not addicted to the game.i do play the game just for the battle pass skins. But the skin is not bad. Its free only if you have the battle pass tho
Weird how Arnold wouldn't return to this series until the Predator: Hunting Ground video game as a DLC character with some backstory from the movie timeline till now
@@sunnyeleven_ you're the one whose mistaken, the Belko Experiment did have 84 kills. Watch his video, and if you were going off of your own watching, you cant forget the kills at the end of the movie.
Predator is one of my favorite movies. While some of it is painfully dated, it at least has a lot of distinct characters that you honestly feel a little upset seeing them die. While some effects don't hold up I think most of them do and add to this "alien" feel for the Predator and even the woods. Plus Predator without his mask looks fucking rad as shit, that fact that he can look around and emote shows how much work was in the costume.
predators go on the count because they are more individual than the xenomorphs which are more like ants in a hive, at least thats why i think they should go on the count
Bombird 88 Actually, that makes total sense. Predators hunt on their own and have rules, tribes, even go through trials to become hunters. While xenomorphs knows nothing except protect their species, their queen and make new hives, they simply kill to protect their territory, and find hosts for their offsprings.
I only recently discovered this channel, and I must say, I am greatly enjoying this style of film reviews. Jokes, black humor, a description of the plot that doesn't completely ruin the film, and of course, the real reason we all watch horror movies: The gore!...You sick F*#&S! Subscribed and will be enjoying the rest of the Kill Counts!
Hawkins: First onscreen predator kill is Shane Black, A clever inversion of the 'black dude dies first' cliche. Totally intentional of course :P Blain: Calls his teammates f***ots then gets blasted from behind. Mac: Says "I'm gonna have me some fun". Doesn't have fun AT ALL. Dillon: Introduced with an arm wrestling match, then gets his arm shot off. Billy: Umm... gets killed after a whole life of not being killed?... How ironic?...¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Poncho: Says "I can make it". Doesn't make it.
lazymanundead Another possibility is that it was hardening the metal. I worked in a machine shop where we used an oven called a heat treater to harden the tools and other things we made.
Useless trivia number 361: Arnold Schwarzenegger's stunt double for this movie (and about 8 other of his movies) was Peter Kent. You would know him as the corpse that Herbert West brings back in the morgue that kills the Dean in Re-Animator.... oh.... uh.... spoilers for a 33 year old movie.
Arnie is so OP when you think about it. He was being hunted by a freaking Predator and still came out on top! Makes me wonder who was the one who was really outmatched here.......
Am I the only one who realize that Poncho got the worst out of everyone. He got beat down by a tiny woman, he got smacked in the face by a log, and then when everyone thinks he's okay he gets shot in the head.
I think the log actually struck him in the chest, which in turn broke many of his ribs and possibly ruptured some of his internal organs. However, this is in no ways a better option than being struck in the face though.
When ya say tiny woman, remember.... that she seemed to be the only woman in that rebel camp of men far away from anything so she must have had some skills in dealing with them and then when her base gets a whupping was ready to take on the biggest of the attacking force single handedly ;)

@@wren7195 if I remember, one Vietnam vet story I've heard is some soldiers firing all their munitions to scare off any ambushers, I think they called Bullet time or something. Not doctrine or official tactics, but very plausible
@@chaosagent_0106 Sounds like it, plausible I mean. It'd depend on the situation of course, especially since if you're about to be ambushed it's because the enemy already knows your position and you don't know theirs (so firing like madmen won't give you away but you're not sure of the enemy position so you're just wasting rounds at that point)... but if they've got a fix on you and you don't know their location, just firing randomly won't discourage trained personnel waiting to drop you.
But I can see it in some situations, rare though. Vietnam was a *MESS.*
But yeah in the Army at least, if squad leader opens up in a direction you're supposed to as well. The idea being if it's SO sudden you don't have time to give orders but you know you have to shoot suppressing fire, it's understood by everyone to follow suit, mixture of direct and enfilade fire.
Best wishes ChaosAgent, thanks for talking with me! I love learning from people like yourself. Be well

I would say Predator 2 has one of the best Easter eggs in movies of all time with the xenomorph skull hanging on the trophy wall at the end
Easter eggs (or film franchises crossing over for that matter) weren't even really a thing yet which makes it twice as awesome.
tuschman168 yup
I think my favorite part of this movie, besides the one liners and the Predator moments, is the great cast. I’d love to see Carl Weathers and Bill Duhe in more stuff!
predator might be evil but he is a respectable creature....he did a fair 1v1
(edit: thanks for the likes and your opinion, I'm interested to know more)
yes because there are codes for predators tradition: dont attack the unarmed, dont attack the pregnant, destroy the captured tech from them, they shall die if failed by being a suicide bomber.

Dxfiler day has been made that's my new poem
*Stahp it,get some help*
JCVD played the FIRST incarnation of the predator. That suit, along with him, was jettisoned because the director rightfully thought the suit was horrible. The production shut down for a bit so that Stan Winston, recommended by Arnie from his Terminator experience, could step in to create a whole new predator. Fun fact: on the plane with Winston, James Cameron happened to mention he'd always wanted to see something with mandibles. Stan did a sketch on the plane and the rest is history.
another fun fact...well this is more for predator 2....but all the predators that show up on the ship at the end were all players for the LA Lakers.
JuggyBohab wait really
yup. i don't know which ones specifically but they needed a bunch of tall extras and they were filming on location.
Stoatwarbler Mangrove kniho
Yeah, I read that too. Apparently Danny Glover knew a bunch of them and asked them to come to the shoot. There's a vid on YT somewhere of all of them dancing on the predator ship as an outtake. LOL
I think they had that action scene in the beginning to show how skilled this team is in combat, and then of course they get they’re ass beaten by this predator, which shows how powerful the predator is as well.
Awe, I liked "Predator 2." Some like the first, but the second expanded the lore, gave us the iconic scene of a xenomorph skull on a Predator ship, and Danny Glover gave a more human, vulnerable performance to Arnold.
Xander Lowe Predator 2 was a fine follow up. Compared to the other current Predator films, included the two AVP films, for me it ranks 2nd best, 3rd place at worst. Lots of memorable moments and actors. Ruben Blades, Gary Busey, and can't forget Bill Paxtons hat trick. Should be a fun kill count.
Fanboyism: I got a Like from Dead Meat himself!!!
i don't get the hate for predator 2. it was a fun sci fi movie and a good follow up. it reminds me of many of the predator comics like concrete jungle that take place in urban settings.

Predator is one of my favorite movies. While some of it is painfully dated, it at least has a lot of distinct characters that you honestly feel a little upset seeing them die. While some effects don't hold up I think most of them do and add to this "alien" feel for the Predator and even the woods. Plus Predator without his mask looks fucking rad as shit, that fact that he can look around and emote shows how much work was in the costume.
predators go on the count because they are more individual than the xenomorphs which are more like ants in a hive, at least thats why i think they should go on the count
TheSingingFoxy ANTS IN A HIVE
Yeah agreed
That's a good point.
That doesn’t make sense
Bombird 88 Actually, that makes total sense. Predators hunt on their own and have rules, tribes, even go through trials to become hunters. While xenomorphs knows nothing except protect their species, their queen and make new hives, they simply kill to protect their territory, and find hosts for their offsprings.
I appreciate the arrested development reference with Carl Weathers

The final trap scene is really funny, you can clearly see the predator's "Is this dude for real?" face when he spots the first trap.

I like how nearly every death in this movie is ironic, for example Dillons introduced with an arm wrestling match and then gets his arm shot off.
Hawkins: First onscreen predator kill is Shane Black, A clever inversion of the 'black dude dies first' cliche. Totally intentional of course :P
Blain: Calls his teammates f***ots then gets blasted from behind.
Mac: Says "I'm gonna have me some fun". Doesn't have fun AT ALL.
Dillon: Introduced with an arm wrestling match, then gets his arm shot off.
Billy: Umm... gets killed after a whole life of not being killed?... How ironic?...¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Poncho: Says "I can make it". Doesn't make it.
Blain says he don't got time to bleed, then when he gets killed, he gets killed without bleeding.
That's not ironic, it's coincidental.

Rewatching all the Predator kill counts to get ready for Prey's count. Waiting (somewhat patiently) Dead Meat
"Welcome to the kill count, where we tally up all the victims in our favourite horror movies!"
Gets me every time.
I always thought when the predator was doing the red thing on his blades it was cleaning the blood on it
Oooh
Same. I thought he like heated it up and burned it off
I thought he was heating them up. You know like a hot knife through butter
lazymanundead Another possibility is that it was hardening the metal. I worked in a machine shop where we used an oven called a heat treater to harden the tools and other things we made.
Red 13 But if it was already heat treated (assuming) wouldn't that make it brittle? Like pre 600,000 serialzed M1903 receivers?
Useless trivia number 361: Arnold Schwarzenegger's stunt double for this movie (and about 8 other of his movies) was Peter Kent. You would know him as the corpse that Herbert West brings back in the morgue that kills the Dean in Re-Animator.... oh.... uh.... spoilers for a 33 year old movie.
Yup gotta love youtube

It's not much of a spoiler if you read the original story and knew that West perfected his formula during the first World War.

Am I the only one who realize that Poncho got the worst out of everyone. He got beat down by a tiny woman, he got smacked in the face by a log, and then when everyone thinks he's okay he gets shot in the head.
I think the log actually struck him in the chest, which in turn broke many of his ribs and possibly ruptured some of his internal organs. However, this is in no ways a better option than being struck in the face though.
When ya say tiny woman, remember.... that she seemed to be the only woman in that rebel camp of men far away from anything so she must have had some skills in dealing with them and then when her base gets a whupping was ready to take on the biggest of the attacking force single handedly ;)
