The Predator: An Unbridled Rage 

Hello there! Well, I managed to finally get this video out, had limited sleep and breaks for eating, otherwise I have been stuck in Microsoft Word and Vegas for what feels like centuries. It tough to get done but after many drafts and corrections, it looks like we made it. For those who are wondering, we got the TFA Critique coming up and i'm gonna take a few days to wind down a bit then i'm back on with that, full throttle. I was going to cover Venom but I really want to push on with TFA now, hoping for a early November release, realistically. So I think I will skip Venom to focus TFA. Next up should be Aqua-man in December and after that.......who knows. I shall be posting updates to the Patreon about the TFA critique if you guys want more details, those are free posts and you can check them out here: www.patreon.com/user?u=4817956

We're living in an age where movie reviews are actually more entertaining than the movies themselves.

My favorite line is when he says: 'I'm a sniper; just get me close...' Apparently nobody explained to Shane Black what snipers actually do...

"The final act took place in daylight, and that wasn't scary." Shane Black, a man who was part /of/ the original Predator, a movie in which 3/4 of it takes place during broad daylight and is one of the tensest, most anxiety inducing experiences of all film history, has decided "Muh Daylight = Muh Boring". Well done, sir. Well done, managing to forget the lessons of the cinematic classic YOU WERE FUCKING IN.

The idea of changing Predator lore to make it more... grand in scope(?) kind of goes against what made Predator so effective in the first place. The basic idea is that they didn't see us as much more than sport. We were collateral damage in their rituals or hobbies. It's upsetting. It makes you really root for the human.

Remember when the Predator was an alien hunter that considered earthlings lesser beings with enough intelligence to be a decent hunt. Using it's greater technology to stalk, toy with and manipulate it's human prey. A creature of honour, that would not hunt something that couldn't fight back, only those with weapons. A creature that would eschew it's high tech blaster and tools to fight hand to hand, if it's prey threw it's gun away and drew a knife in futile challenge? One that if you were able to defeat it's Brethren, it would acknowledge your ability, and gift you one of it's many trophy weapons gathered throughout the ages, before leaving in mutual respect? I miss that predator.

If the Predator was trying to steal a child, does that make him a Child Predator?

I had initially thought “Predator is a masterpiece, how could MauLer not enjoy it?” Then I read “The Predator” Oh.

" he was predator jesus" line made me spit out my coffee. Nice one Mauler.

This whole movie sounds like something a toddler would create by saying “and then” between every event

Wait. Mauler hates Predator? (Starts watching the video). Ooooooohhhhhhhh.....Mauler hates the NEW Predator.

I love every time he says “because fuck you” he plays that execution scene from the first movie. Made me laugh every time

Just let them have the kid's DNA, next generation of predators will have no social skills and be obsessed with trains

"Brains are offensive to movies these days." Perfect.

“Why is it than whenever a classic franchise is added to, it comes across that the people writing it, hate it?!” So very true!

Shane Black: filming in daylight is boring! Let's do it at night! Also Shane: *was part of one of the greatest horror movies of all time, which was 100% filmed in BROAD DAYLIGHT.*

Mailman here, if they weren't paying the PO Box it'd be held at the Office until payment, or the box was closed and then the items would be returned. But that stuff would be held onto for weeks, if not months.

I'm on the spectrum. My superpowers are crippling anxiety that causes my brain to basically shut down when in social situations. Evolution!

The Predator was on TV last Friday, and I watched it. Even after seeing this review (and others), I was still astounded how shit it actually is.

How hard would it have been just to make a sequel to Predators? A movie about Adrian Brody's character trying to get off that planet would have been interesting.

You skipped over one of the dumbest things in movie history. When the girl goes to the Stargazer lab they show her a tablet with still images from P1 and P2. The P1 image is when it emerged from the water and couldn’t see Dutch covered in mud... as if someone was there and took that photo.

"It is not hard to maintain a tone in Predator. Thank you for proving me wrong Shane." That ladies and gentlemen is why I love MauLer. Please don't ever lose your sass. One of your many gifts. :)

It's like he held a grudge for his character getting killed first in the original.

This has to be the funniest, most insightful critique of a movie that I’ve come across. Mauler, you are an absolute legend.

Dear Lord! *This is a movie about Predators literally trying to WEAPONIZE AUTISM*

"What's the driving force for your Predator movie?" "I love to stereotype and make fun of people with mental conditions." "...what?"

Acquiring the survival traits of your prey, the same traits that didnt save them from you, IS a genius concept. 😂

Bad guy blew his head off so fast I had to rewind the clip 20 times just to see that it actually happened

The "who wrote this dialogue" with the close up on Dillon's sweat-beaded face got me every single time.

Man this film sucks. Man this film sucks. Why did you say it twice? I didn’t. It was an echo.... in the empty theatre.

I watch this video at least once every couple days if not daily. "WHO WROTE THIS?!" "Somebody actually wrote this..."

I don't know if Mauler wanted this to be the case but I was literally laughing out loud throughout this video

"If the franchise bleeds, we can kill it." ----Shane Black

So cool that they named a movie after my uncle's nickname. I miss him, and his special hugs.

You know, I have Asperger's Syndrome, and I'm been around for a good while (in my final year of high school), so I can say with confidence... that this movie really is an insult to my condition. The only "superpower" I have is the ability to work out certain math equations in my head with few difficulties- sometimes. Beyond that, it is nothing but a problem for me, making it hard for me to speak in complete sentences without stuttering, to be able to connect with people on any meaningful level, and to break out of regular daily patterns without becoming anxious. I do bad in crowds, and I sadly cannot memorize patterns like other people with my condition can apparently do (especially not to the bullshit levels presented in this film). My only saving grace is that I have been lucky and have not been bullied for my condition, because if I was, I'm not sure how I would react (probably either burst into tears or throw a punch of punches out of anger). I know people think they are encouraging people like me when they write characters like this, but they never get it right, because they fail to acknowledge the drawbacks of Asperger's Syndrome, and instead make characters with only the good parts, exaggerated to the point where it is unrealistic and just disrespectful. I have been trying my hand at writing fantasy novels lately, and I like to think I can write some decent stories on my rough drafts alone. When I make a world, I always write out the rules, so that even if my story becomes a bit contrived, it does not break its rules. I do my best to make sure events flow from scene to scene, and while my foreshadowing skills need work, I do at least make sure the setups make sense. How people like this can get jobs in Hollywood, or any other film studios, with such obvious little care for lore, consistency, and dialogue is baffling to me. I know that I at least try, and the people I show my stories to can tell I try even if they don't like what I wrote- these people put no effort into their stories and try to cover it up with cool effects instead of checking the script. If the story sounds bad on paper before you cover it up with "amazing" effects, then the story should never be produced (yet they still do, somehow). Mauler, you have done a fantastic job with all of your rages and critiques, for movies and otherwise, and you have brought me much joy. You are helping my critical thinking skills for story telling, and have provided me with all the evidence I need for my friends when I tell them I hate Disney Star Wars (am loving the Legends Novels so far, though- I'm on a mission to get as many as I can). Thank you for all the work you put into these videos, and sorry if I ranted a bit. I look forward to your critique of TFA.

I think I've re-watched this video now for what feels like hundreds of times. There is legit no way anyone can get through this video without breaking out in laughter and in my case nearly to tears. What a fantastic review for the most absurd movie ever made.

I'm convinced that Olivia Munn never reads the scripts before accepting a role; especially not her own part.

The "next step in human evolution" is unlikely to be something that renders you incapable of appropriately responding to a fire alarm.

You missed the best part. Biologist lady, remember she's a biologist, claims that the Retcon "grew and exoskeleton under it's skin." That is an actual quote. An EXOskeleton UNDER it's skin. This is what a supposed biologist says.

Actual mailman here in the United States. The package were been returned to sender. It would not have been forwarded on to a home address, unless there was a valid forward. clearly there isn’t because he sent it to the P.O. Box. Do you remember when writers researched topics first? Sigh.

A foolish man complains about his torn pocket. A wise man uses it to scratch his nuts.

"You even tried to fuck up the AVP films! 'THEY DO NOT NEED YOUR HELP FOR THAT!'" Best line ever.

Predator: “UPGRADE ME WITH AUTISM!” Everyone else: “Guys... shh, don’t say anything. Go get Chris Chan.”

How did she know about the predator's code not to kill unarmed people anyway?!

I saw a documentary about making every Hellraiser movie. The writer and director for one of the sequels, maybe the 5th film, was being interviewed and admitted he had never seen any Hellraiser movie. They hire him to write and direct a sequel and he had never seen a Hellraiser film. Even worse, he couldn't be bothered to watch even one of them. Instead he hired another guy to watch the Hellraiser movies and tell him the basic story, like cliff notes, so he could write another sequel. Summary: "Puzzle Cube opens BDSM demon portal, people die" Add a zip of cocaine and they write a script. This scenario explains Hollywood films today.

"Somebody wrote this." Worse. Much worse... "Somebody was PAID to write this." But still worse... Somebody PAID to watch it. RIP.

"The burger himself...." Dude how are your insults so pg yet so effective? I love it.

Predator - amazing! Predator 2 - pretty good AvP - guilty pleasure but honestly pretty good and a new story for both aliens and predators. AvPR- no Predators- really good, and a clever way to retell the predator story. The Predator- this movie makes me root for the predator while killing people, because these people are so stupid....

Great fan of you, MauLer! This is one of your best videos, and it always makes me smile. As a writer, I thoroughly enjoy your rants and analysis alike. Keep up the good work!

Rest in peace... Predator Alien Terminator Star Wars Star Trek Jurrasic Park Robocop The Thing Ghostbusters Doctor Who Game of Thrones James Bond The Conjuring Independence Day The Matrix Lord of the Rings What an awful time to be alive

"I'm not actually not convinced this film is real". Best opening line ever...?

God I love the unbridled rage videos. Please give us a new one as a Christmas present!!

I love that he keeps referring to the kid as Ass Burger 😂

"The Predator is back, and this time he won't leave until he gets Asperger."

That Carl Weathers stare is majestically edited.

The Predator dog is like Rico from Penguins of Madagascar. It just vomits things people need

I have watched more hours of people reviewing/ roasting the movie then watching the actual movie, it’s literally more entertaining than the movie itself 😂

Bro-Man, Dude-Bro, Person-fella, Gal-girl and boy-man. Best characters

"Turn your brain off. Brains are offensive to movies these days." Dude, this line applies to almost everything these days! No critical thought allowed.

Arguably the greatest review and vivisectiom of a film I've ever seen, I salute you Mauler!

You missed Dude Blokes "best" line in the film! "I'm a SNIPER, just get me CLOSE." This might be the worst film I've ever seen. . . and I actively watch Neil Breen movies.

I also want to mention how the predator that came to "save" the humans, landed the first thing he did was kill a man and hang him upside down from a tree.

I seriously can't believe the same guy who made this stinker of a film also directed The Nice Guys, an incredibly awesome throwback to buddy comedies.

this is a masterpiece. thank you for this. makes me laugh everytime

A rage video? A surprise to be sure, but a welcome one

"God damn I wish I had asperger's" - Predator

Are you sure this isn’t a Disney/JJAbrams/Rian Johnson collaboration? It would really answer a lot of questions.

Makes you wonder why nobody just did what Alien did; 1st Stage: Show you how terrifying the monster is. 2nd Stage: Show you how it evolves to combat new situations. 3rd Stage: Show you how there are countless more of them. 4th Stage: Show you the Predator that hunts them for fun. 5th Stage: Repeat the above, and slowly introduce new stuff. Not really sure how this concept is really hard.

I just realised none of the science people are wearing gloves or masks, which would be the absolute minimum amount of personal protective gear that you'd wear when autopsying/vivisecting an unknown species.

They used a lobotomised dog to move the plot forward. Twice. ...What.

I did not expect to sit through this whole video !! Well done 👍

Dude, you are fuckin hilarious. Found you tonight and I’ve watched captain marvel, Jurassic park, predator and rise of sky walker already. I need more unbridled rage in my life

"The Predator" also breaks the entire idea of the "Predators" where they kidnap talented people off earth and bring them to an uninhabited planet to hunt them.

At the line "whose only goal is to weaponize autism." I lost it.

I always go back to watch this video, it is really entertaining. Mauler is awesome; please never change.

My friend and I are huge Predator fans and we were both horrified by this movie. The main plot is about a CGI monster trying to weaponize autism. Yeah, because that's what the original makers of the first film had in mind.

"The Last Jedi of the Predator franchise" - Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.

Can we all remember the Alien Vs Predator game wherein a good portion of the Predator story line was hunting down the Pred-Alien, something that was Predator genes spliced with another, and they wanted it destroyed because they viewed it as an "Abomination"

I hope we get to see Prey: An Unbridled Praise in the coming weeks. Predator (2018) is a disgrace, the franchise deserves better.

Assburger, Dude Bro, Gaylord, Retcon, Science Lady... The nicknames are really the best parts of these videos.

God, at this point, MauLer's videos are my safe space. lmao

A kid with aspergers managed to defeat a Predator, that’s the sign that we have hit rock bottom with this series.

will look through the playlist for other predator films ..great job

*_Opening line:_*_ I am not actually convinced this film is real._ Me: *Cracks knuckles, grabs popcorn bowl and beer bottle. This is gonna be good.

The Last Jedi- "I made the worst movie of the decade." The Predator- "Hold my beer..."

I like how the cycle of the same scenes just slowly devolves into the feeling of madness and insanity.

“I’m a sniper. Just get me close.”🤣

I will never consider this new lore as canon. Covenant pushed me hard enough but this is where I draw the line.

I just can't believe they actually johnson'd the Predator franchise....

"But, how did it make you... feel?" -Bilbo Baggins

The Decker Shado clip near the end was a good addition His reveiws are pretty great too.

Calling this 'movie' fanfiction is an insult to fanfic authors as some of them put earnest effort into writing. What the fuck has happened to writing quality where people on the internet can write better than the 'professionals'?

Everyone - "You can't make a Predator movie worse than AVPR". Shane Black - "Hold my beer!"

A Predator killed Shane Black in the first movie and he got his revenge by killing the whole franchise.

I still sometimes come back as if to remind myself that this is something that was approved, filmed and aired. This actually got to be made.

Hand on. The Predator was carrying technology that controlled the ship of the super predator that was hunting him and could have shut his ship down and just didn't know but a kid did.

This can all be summed up in three words: "Who wrote this?!"

This is my favourite videos of all times, always makes me laugh so hard that tears flood my eyes. Especially the silly names and "who wrote this?"

Some “traditional” reviewers say that mauler’s critique isn’t real criticism because he’s just describing the movie but what they don’t understand is that the best case against these movies are the movies themselves.

As someone with Asperger's I can totally confirm we all have secret super powers...
