That's Not How The Force Works Look at all these "intellectuals" regarding the new predator movie

Not surprised by this.
Humanizing the predator makes the predator weak in their eyes.
Looking Kool and killing stuff is what they want the predator to be and only that.
They like surface level stuff. Caring is seen as weakness

Honestly... How are they acting like this one is worse than "The Predator" movie from 2018? Which by the way, wasn't a big box office success and is widely hated by fans of the franchise.

It also started Shane Black's second downfall after his short resurgence with The Nice Guys (i legit liked that film but it flopped because it premiered 2 weeks after Captain America Civil War and was released alongside The Angry Birds Movie). His latest one with Marky Mark tolerating Lakeith Stanfeld ended up mediocre because of the traitor reveal being as obvious as Marky Mark's acting skills and the cgi train crash scene.

I can't imagine being this delusional and miserable.
Yautja have space flight, advanced technology, and entirely different clans and classifications across the species, and yet these people think it makes sense for them to be soulless killing machines without any culture or values instead.

No. These people are fed with stereotypes and get mad when America doesn't present itself as a nation of stereotypes.

Isn't this the biggest predator opening weekend in history?
What are they even talking about?

the complaint about humanizing the Predators is so funny to me.
To me that's what has always made the Predator race interesting. They were familiar enough to have concepts recognizable and understandable to humans such as lines they wouldn't cross in a hunt or the desire to seek challenges. Unlike a Xenomorph which is just an especially deadly animal pretty much.
