Predator: Killer of Killers (2025)

Really? I just think the animation style is off-putting, plus the strong Viking lady. The other two stories I guess look okay because I'm assuming it's an anthology.

I don't know I'm not exactly chomping at the bit to watch it.

The animation is great during the middle segment in Japan in my opinion, it can definitely be smooth and quick when needed, and other moments are a bit more subdued with a slower frame rate, but it didn't bother -me-, your opinion may vary but after a few minutes I really wasn't noticing the "framerate" of the animation at all anymore, at least it wasn't bothering me because I was involved in what was happening on screen.

Overall, I think you should give it a watch if you like Predator, there's a bunch of callbacks and references to the films too.

Having watched it, I find the "strong woman" complaint really funny because goddamn there's almost nothing feminine about this character at all, except she happens to be female... , she's not pretty or young, she's a merciless relentless badass from start to finish, and doesn't feel at all like a Mary Sue that are usually seen in girlboss stuff.

Also, it's an actual feature-length film with chapters, it's not really an anthology where you can skip episodes in my opinion.

So a male protagonist replaced with a woman. Never seen that before. It's the magical strong as a man super butch right?

It's MAAM!

is my Hulu messed up or is this supposed to look like it is 14 frames per second on purpose? This is annoying.

I haven't watched it but the animation from the trailers looked like trying to do arcane with low budget

Watched based on the recommendations in this thread. This was great. The whole thing is a lean 90 minutes that doesn't waste a second of your time.

The animation... frame rate? is off-putting for the first few minutes and then you get sucked in and it just fades to the background. The actual animation and art style is great. Lots of variety in the action/predators/gadgets.

Dan Trachtenberg seems like he has a great sense for how to build a character enough that you care about them and then hit all the beats of a good predator story. Color me cautiously optimistic for Badlands after a pretty poor reaction to the trailer.

I watched it with my boys. We enjoyed it. Yeah female hulk smash viking lady kinda felt off but lets be honest all the characters were pulling off crazy stuff. Overall it was a fun watch, entertaining fights, and the story looks to be setting up future stuff especially considering the final reveal. Let go of the hate and enjoy.

I liked this - constant action, almost no character building, good animation, moderately interesting stories.

The bad - shitty framerate, and while the viking story was decent, the japan one was good, the american one leaned way too hard into the absurd. The logic for how the end fight played out is worse than independence day, which previously held the record for least plausible alien interaction of all time.

Bonus points for the aggrieved sigh during the japanese stealth sequence.

Bonus loss of points for 'they have heat vision goggles, that means their spaceships can't see you at close range in broad daylight'.

Fun movie, start to finish. It is a great deal, for the price of Free on Hulu. The framerate was pretty jarring at first, but your brain adjusts after a bit.

They keep exceeding expectations with the Predator franchise. This Dan Trachtenberg guy seems to know what he is doing.

new epilogue added that cameo's Dutch (arnold OG movie) character along with danny glover and the prey chick. it sounds like its JUST an extra 1 minute epilogue scene that'll pop up on youtube soon enough

Let the fuck train continue on after watching Happy Gimpmore 2 might as well watch this finally

remixing the predator music is soso

- dyking just pulled off a combat sequence that no female could do and if they are attaching Arnie and Glover to this making it all connected she is literally more bad ass than those two ….fuck

- the first predator is killed by his own doing yet again just like the retarded derpy prey movie

- he is weighed down by an anchor that the female just showed she can lift and then drop over the side herself …..a predator that is easily the tallest and biggest showcase in motion entertainment …hulk size almost

- intro to the next story by showing the back of somebody….doesn't that just fucking spoil right away “guess what he makes it”

- some sort of obsession with making every predators tusks mandibles showing even when wearing a mask

- second one came pretty close to full retard killing itself but I guess they pushed its pause button and it was just ….there ….stealth….you know just chilling …fucking doing nothing

and it had one literally in his grasp let’s focus on the other further away and then fighting the other but let’s once again focus on furthest away

- third one fucking ace combat predator …..LOL


Found em

oh cooolllllll will we get boat predator next

and and and surfboard predator

and what about fucked in the ass predator

- a spaceship that does interstellar travel and the predator winces inside as the gas tank explodes as if it’s registering it as a threat

- insta heat off mode lol

- LMAO bullets damaged the ship

- holy fuck I’m calling it ….hat trick!!! Three predators killed themselves



The put wings on this thing and gave it a spotlight

- fucking assholes laid claim to the pistol from predator 2

- the beaner turned into Mexican food and didn’t die

- …….now this is pod racing

So they didn’t make use of any of the actual predator sounds other than clicks…when it’s very distinct in the first two movies

Gay the end.
