Re: Prey (2022, D: Trachtenberg) -- Predator prequel

Watched this and enjoyed it. The locations were really nice looking and the action and acting were solid. The CGI was iffy, though. I'm with others who say if there has to be a sequel, it should be in a different time period or centered around another group/nationality of people.

I read through the last several pages and regarding Grace Randolph, I haven't watched her review yet, but I'm surprised she panned it. I've watched her videos for years and she is *all* about REPRESENTATION. If a movie includes a lot of that, she grades on a curve. then again, she said She-Hulk had too much feminism for her, which shocked me.

Elsewhere online, someone (Half in the Bag?) referred to the lead actress as Native American Aubrey Plaza and that is *exactly* what went through my mind when I first saw her.

Shiiit...I can't unsee that now. Apparently people have been saying this going back at least 5 years.

Yeah, I kept seeing that resemblance too, it's only knowing that they used an all indigenous cast (for the Natives) that kept my brain from thinking it was her.

Well they did play multiple personalities in Legion (the dense X-Men show on FX that is better than most movies). That's probably where it came from.

I thought Amber was Aubrey with different makeup when watching Legion.

I enjoyed it quite a bit. Better than the last couple of movies, even though I enjoyed them to an extent as well.

I might have to actually buy a Blu-ray again, as I want it in my digital library instead of through Hulu.

Never cared about the franchise, but I'm looking forward to finally seeing this as it's the first since the original that has looked worthwhile to me.

I totally forgot about this movie. I recall I didn't care for it, despite my really looking forward to it. I wonder if I should give it another shot on Hulu.

Everyone who wanted this can thank me, as I finally gave in and ordered a bootleg copy the other day just because I wanted this for my collection as a long-time Predator fan.

Any plans to order a boot of WandaVisionm Wednesday, or Andor?

Almost pulled the trigger on Andor, to be honest, but decided to hold off. My apologies!

Best I can do for you is the complete run of Salute Your Shorts from Nickelodeon and the Despecialized Editions of Star Wars. Neither one of those worked to get a formal release, though!

Just got an email from the Disney Movie Club that they are releasing WandaVision as well as Mando Seasons One and Two.

Salute Your Shorts would be nice. Paramount Plus only has a bit of it.

I'd love to have the Despecialized Editions ...
