MOVIES AND SHOWS WATCHED THIS WEEK
Prey (2022) – I gotta say, I kinda enjoyed it this. I like that it went back to a simpler story line and was placed in a pretty cool setting. Overall the film has some cool visuals with a solid female lead character. 3.75/5
Predator 2 (1990) – Hadn’t seen this one in years, so after finishing Prey, I saw it was on Hulu and gave it a shot. I like the urban jungle aspect of it this time around. It mixes things up a bit. I also like that the Predator actually kinda fucks with Harrigan through out the film. I just can’t figure out how the one Predator at the end gives Harrigan the pistol from Prey. 3.75/5
Alien vs. Predator (2004) – Continued down the rabbit hole… Only saw this once when it first came out and now I remember why. It’s just not good. I do remember the sequel being worse though. In theory it is a great concept based on the fact that the end of Predator 2 showed a xenomorph skull among its trophies and the comics were a huge success, but Paul W.S. Anderson just does not deliver. Plus it’s PG-13 FFS. 2/5
