Differences Between Predator 2022 vs Predator 1987 

So basically the movie turned out to be another episode of "How to Catch a Predator"

I like that this new Predator isn't as OP as the others, his gear doesn't make him unstoppable it just give him the upper hand.

I love that the design of the Feral Predator resembles a Wendigo. Also I doubt if they'll keep him the first Predator on Earth if they make more movies. I mean, look at that shield lol. So many possibilities

I loved that the Feral Predator was just very willing to take damage and go kinda into a berserker rage. Him fighting a bear was great, and him killing a bunch of White Colonizers was pretty amazing, not going to lie

Meanwhile, in 'Prey', the tribes had stories that monsters came to their world, dating centuries ago... So no, this was not the "first time a Predator" came to earth...

I think that this predator is adapting Hits fighting style and the use of technology based on the opponent. Its landed on an a technology wise primitive earth. So it would simpy be unfair to have energy weapons to begin With. Furthermore when facing animals he only used close combat weapons so that they would be a challenge to him. Only later on when he was opposing more opponents or received heavy damage he switched to more advanced weapons to make sure he wont lose. In general I think that this species is more interested in a fair and hard hunting and fighting experience than the prior seen predators. Only that feral is a coward sometimes and not perfectly skilled in the use of weapons

Good analysis, but there's a slight discrepancy in the evolution of The Predator in the franchise. If you recall in Alien vs. Predator, we got a look at the Predator when they visited earth during the reign of the Mayans and the Aztec, hundreds of years before Feral Predator. The Predators during that time looked very similar to the version In Alien vs. Predator.

I really love predator movies..Though dutch's predator is unmachable, but I think this skull predator is just great because he is not op and also avp timeline wont be removed I believe coz he is not the first one to arrive on earth.

You have to give it to the 87 predator he took on wich was probably one of the deadliest sqads around with only his wrist blades and plasma cannon

If the symbiotes merged with xenomorph and yautja

this makes me want to watch the movie again. it was freakin awesome. this predator was smaller but way more agile and lean. loved the different types of predators.

Out of all the predators we have seen so far, this feral guy took the most damage despite being almost armorless if not for his mask and shield and yet beat the crap out of everyone. That's the main reason why Naru took him down so easily, but even then he almost killed her.

I thought the director said it was THIS predators first time on earth, not the whole species

I wouldn’t say he was the “First” Predator on earth ever. It was “His” first time on Earth.

The original Predator is my favorite one!!!

Main difference was in Prey the Predator wasn't really a formidable hunter - he was a formidable fighter, he relied on brute strength. He was also incredibly stupid.

"Prey 2022 has got the highest ratings from all predator movies." Who the F told you that? Predator (1987) is 7.8 and this sh*ty Prey has got 7.3.

Correction: This wasn’t The Yautja’s first time To earth, this was FERAL’s first time to Earth. So the species have been here before this film (as seen in AVP) so AVP timeline isn’t wiped out

I honestly really dig the more narrow and lean design of thia predator

While this Predator isn't as thicc as the others before it, it was still a badass. That rampage through the burnt woods was awesome.

6’9". That’s how tall the actor that played the predator in prey is.

I like the spear gun as it seems like it was meant to be train as a plasma gun after they achieve their hunt with xenomorph.

It'll be cool to show like the old myan colony warriors or like in the cold winter predators something like 10,000 bc or apocalyto the movie kind of movie. That would be amazing. Prey was a breath of fresh air and sort of a primitive original storyline. I enjoyed it.

The Predators would fit so well into the Beowulf saga. I can't believe no one has written a script for this yet.

I really enjoyed the Hulu movie Prey. It was interesting to see how the Comanche Indians handled an unknown alien threat and inspite of the Predator being more advanced than the people in 1719? The Predator was still noticeably ancient weaponry compared to the ones we're used to seeing. Ptey was a well done movie 🎥

Original predator was back in 1987 but the quality of effects on the face movements still holds strong to now. You would even think it was made today. Sound effects were awesome too-

I loved this movie. If the yautja have been genetically modifying themselves for thousands or hundreds of years, then a yautja from 300 years ago would look radically different than the one Dutch ran into in 1987. I'm not so certain this was the first yautja on earth though, and rather, just this individual's first time on the planet. Naru says in the opening narration, "A long time ago, it is said, a monster came here" and there isn't any context to confirm if that is before or after the movie ends. Until confirmation, I'd like to believe the yautja have been hunting humans for longer and this was this yautja's coming of age hunting ritual, his first big hunt alone. They opened up endless possibilities by setting the movie in the past. It would seem silly to limit themselves to just 300 years of human history. I'd love to see the yautja during Egyptian times, Roman times, or even Aztec/Mayan etc. Just any place where it'd have hot temperatures for yautja and interesting human history/time periods.

Not sure why people are saying the new predator isn't 'OP' as the others. He fought against tribes people with sticks and drunk frenchman. He used camo 99% of the time, even against animals. Had an aimbot. Had nukes. Had a bulletproof shield and mask. All other kinds of weapons that instant killed including the net. He got hit so many times but it didn't effect him one bit compared to to other predators. For the time period he is the most OP predator to appear so far.

It’s bone mask is the skull from a river ghost seen in the movie Predators..

Prey was surprisingly good, but Schwarzenegger's Predator is still iconic.

I didn’t think I’d like this one but I found myself enjoying it. I don’t think there was any point that I got distracted or bored (which is saying something considering the last few entries in the Predator lineup lmao). I definitely enjoyed the way this predator fought. He wasn’t so quick to whip out a ranged weapon, and had no problem using no weapon at all. The fight scenes just felt different compared to the older movies. The way he methodically mowed through the fur traders was probably my favorite part by far.

The wire mesh armor is used for temperature regulation. It is like the same way your rear window defrost on your car works.

One is about a predator making superhumans looks completely useless and has an amazing horror tone, the other is a cgi disaster making a super predator look useless and a very small girl look superhuman

There’s a reason Prey is the top rated predator now based on critics and fan reaction~ they balanced him being overly powered, and it being a feral predator is a nice change as it’s thinner and less equipped. It would make sense that it has a tougher time than the Hunter predators~ tho my biggest complaint is the ending. It was too easy, and I highly doubt a helmet will lock onto its owner as he still had the wrist ban. The helmet used the predators projectile clearly meaning it was still linked to his wrist piece. Besides that, amazing movie

You'll never beat the first predator with Arnold Schwarzenegger matter of fact Danny Glover did a hell of a job in predator 2 I loved it as well

I assume that the Predators look so different from each other because the species are a space-faring race and have set up colonies on various planets and evolved differently due to the local environment on said planet.

I don’t know about your height estimate: the guy in the feral Predator suit, Dane DiLiergo, is 6ft 9in. So, I don’t think the feral predator is only 6’ 6” when the human in the suit is three inches taller.

Got to say this wasn’t half bad. I don’t like the new design but I do like how they justified it. Also whis they went with more practical effects with the predator. It always looks better.

the shield of the predator it looks like the shield of Kratos God of war.

The original Predator is my favorite, hands down.

I don't think this feral predator was the first predator to visit earth, in the movie, When Pred's spaceship slips into Earth's atmosphere, Naru mistakes it for a Thunderbird, a supernatural being featured prominently among the tribe as an omen to begin the kühtaamia, a rite of passage where she must hunt something that’s hunting her.. This entails that the "thunderbird" has been seen many times in the past, which means a predator ship has been seen entering the earth's atmosphere in the past and the hunts have been going on for centuries.

The Feral Predator is one of the best designs, hands down. Such a shame the story wasn't up to par.

He is not the “first” predator to land on earth the Comanches had “children stories” of them already.

That 'wendigo' theory is actually very on point and well incorporates the existence of the Predator as the real explanation for this Native American myth. Nice.

M.Kevin Peter Hall is a big actor.

One of my favourite predator movies previous movies have failed to keep me on the edge of my seat… not this one though very tense moments fantastic design of the new predator and just a really well done movie I wish it was longer then it was though I loved it personally my favourite movie of 2022

I like the design of Ferel Until he took his mask off

This new design is so kickass I love it

Am I the only one that really hates the look of this Predator? As well as the new types from Predators and the Predator. The weird mandibles, mouth and eyes. What's wrong with the look of the original? It was badass and iconic. Why change it over and over in every film?

I love how this predator is not that strong and experience, this is the first movie in my opinion where humans can at least keep up with him.But how he doesn't have cannons where in AVP in ancient times they still have cannons.

I wish all the Predator movies since the 1st one, including the Feral in Prey would retain a subtle design which seem to have been de-emphasized/ignored/missed. For the OG predator, the tips of the top 2 mandibles overlaps on the bottom 2 at an angle, and they tap on the bottom 2 to create the tapping/clicking sound which seems to be part of the Yautja's language (or at least a way of communication). The top & bottom mandibles of the Feral simply lay out vertical/parallel to each other, which do not suggest any tapping/clicking... maybe that's why they are "feral" since they are not well built for "communication". 😁

This gives a good idea of how the predators evolved into what we see today

I have to say! This Predator is qualified for an Oscar compared to its predecessor

Yet another great "real vs fake"

As a Comanche, Thank you for representing us and making this story mainstream. My ancestors were vastly over matched by the creature’s tech yet they overcame. Thank you and bless!

Although AVP isnt canon, the idea of Predators created the xenomorphs for a more challenging hunt is perfect.

am i the only one who didnt know they made a new predator movie?

1.15 watch that bit sounded like the iron giant " ooooh yeeaahh" 🤦‍♂️😂😂

Only thing I didn’t like about Feral was the eyes, everything else was fantastic and a great variation of the Yautja. I was hoping to finally get a female Yautja since the film was female led but perhaps that time will come later, he definitely made up for my hopes and made it onto my top Five Predators. As long as they keep these creators who know what a Predator is supposed to be I have good hopes for the future Yautja.

Predator vs the bear was awesome

Just finished watching, and the notification dropped..!!!! 😂😂 Finally a girl protagonist after AVP.. Comparison and judging the two movies??? Well the #PredatorVerse doesn't needs judgement, they're that Epic!! ❤✌🤩

Me at 3:00am Google: wassup with predator

I love the new design of the Yautja, and its own unique weaponry.

Original predator is the definition of badass

Main difference is the original predator design is far better.

I love the idea of both the predator and Nara being on their first big hunt. Explains his gear. But at the beginning of the film Nara says “a long time ago a monster came” maybe talking in the future and the movie is the story ooooorrrr the predators have been there before

This was in the past guess the yautia had a industrial revolution themselves

The guy who played the Predator in Prey is 6'9 - an ex Overseas Professional basketball player.

I'm curious where you received the info about the ancient predators hunting on earth in the AVP film being erased to where the feral predator is now considered to be the first now on the planet.

I think what makes the Predator in PREY more interesting is the time in which he came to earth, where there was basically no sign of Technology

The feral predator was just a ruthless brutal killing machine that destroyed a bear with one shot. But then he faced a little girl that could barely kill a rabbit. I was expecting her to start suplexing him in the end.

I liked the look of this predator especially it’s weapon like the spear/mace/ sword thing he was sick with it

It's not Predator 2022 more like 1715

Some cool time periods for the predator to show: -Rome: Battle of Teutoberg Forest (it was chaotic due to being an ambush by “barbarians,” so a predator would have the time of its life) -Persia: Byzantine-Persian War (the losses were so great and exhausting that it allowed the Arab Muslims to sweep through later) -Japan: Sengoku Jidai (nobody would even notice the massacre of a village or whatever during this time) -China: Warring Period (so much death during the unification period that, just as the same with Sengoku Jidai, nobody would care too much about a slaughtered town) -England: Invasion of the Great Heathen Army (Vikings and Predators? Yea.) -Russia, maybe? Incursions into Siberia would be interesting. -Spain, during the Reconquista? Or even during the colonial period of, say, Cuba or Mexico. Could include Aztecs even.

I like this new predator. Lean ripped and muscular. And tall. Also fast moving. Unlike the one before that looked chunky and bulky

They evolve as species, after every fight they get better. Their body suit changes, they change and adapt as well. Their technology becomes better with less flaws

The feral predator seemed to be a young blood. It was hunting through the food chain and possibly taking DNA samples in that era.

Looking back at the original predator with both his weapons and his behaviors, it seems that the Yautja visited Earth many times for millennia and they learned from these many adventures. I feel that the young Yautja visiting Earth didn’t get much of a sitrep or a scouting report. But as they saw or heard their companions not return from their hunts, they grew a wariness to visiting Earth. They knew we were a dangerous species and if they weren’t careful, we could at some point in our own technological advancements be equals to them. I think the original movie proves that point. In Prey the girl did a lot with a little but her tribesmen didn’t do nothing but they didn’t stand a chance. Dutch and his team had some pretty serious firepower for 87 and couldn’t do much. Can’t say if they were better hunters than the Comanches (and I personally don’t know what tribe Billy was from) but they clearly didn’t want their technology falling into their hands by 1987. They probably witnessed our nuclear capability and were all like “if you die or think you’ll die, you have to self destruct or return to the ship. No if, ands, or butts about it” lmao

I love how the new Feral Predator looks like a Wendigo in the Native American setting.

The wire mesh has a personal climate in them, that's why predators usually have them

The difference is 1987 is a great movie and 2022 is a woke pile of trash💯

The improvements in predator design looks nice but isn't so drastic. That's how good the original design is that it's still good even now.

This predator was my least favorite - seemed way less honorable than the others. Example: when fighting Taabe and taking hits, the predator cloaked and killed him from behind. All other versions take off their gear and engage in uncloaked hand to hand combat. This one was too coward when the opponent could fight back.

The predator shouldn't have super strength. Just strong relative to his size, stature and athleticism. Of course a predator can kill a grizzly but not beat the shit out of it with physical strength. That's ridiculous.

The difference is, Disney's Predator was woke shit and the original was a masterpiece!!! People excepted Disney's Mulan Vs Predator, because they've given up hope of ever seeing a decent Predator film again in their lifetime. Predators 2010 was close, but it had its faults and Predator 2 can hang its head high for a really good sequel to the original!!!!

The other one wiped out a entire elite military squad. This new one got beat by a 110 pound girl using sticks and rocks.

Another feminism movie

This was the first time the predator came to earth and this was the base technology. You see how developed to hunt learning from the mistakes of the feral predator. Going from the spear to plasma blast, the skin texture, the helmet, the body size etc. i love this movie

How are we gonna believe that a skinny little woman can kill a predator 😂 more strong wamen who can do anything ☠️

Both these predator are badass.

It's strange to describe the feral predator as having superhuman features when it's actually an alien.

To be honest I would like to see the 87 predator in another story as good as this . But this movie was fresh I loved it .

Prey is actually a good movie.

I think it was meant that this was the Feral's first time on earth, not yautja in general Good video dude

We should not assume that the Predators are a mono-culture or a mono-race/ethnicity. Just like earth has different levels of tech across cultures/ethnicities/nationalities, so too could the Yautja. Also, I understand them to be very ritualistic so this may be a young Yautja out trying to earn his place in their society. Perhaps he has not yet earned the privilege of a plasmacaster . . . Anyway, I loved the movie and how it had a strong woman of colour as the lead. That it remained as true to an Indigenous culture is a wonderful thing!

Better than the last predator movie. Wish it was shot a bit more grittier though would’ve been sick to see it less super produced

There's an interview where the director says something alone with the line "This isn't an "origin" movie as it is, the feral predator first hunt." Meaning it's this specific type of predator first hunt, not the species as a whole. Meaning avp would still be canon.

Feral Predator is my personal favourite Predator in the franchise.

The first predator is a legendary film.

The plot from the Predator concrete jungle video game was pretty cool. Predator hunts mobsters in the 30's. Lost his tech. Exiled. Returns to earth and they're super advanced from the Predator tech.
