Well, Let talk about the predator 2018... And I got some shit to say about this movie, but before I do... This Is going to be heavy on SPOILERS... you know, In cause you haven't seen It but I highly recommend you don't, So If you have yet to see The Predator... Then DON'T read this... But who even cares? If you have already see The Predator... Go right ahead and read this, but you probably won't like what I have to say about It...

Anyways, I'm going to start by getting the negatives out of the way, starting with the BIGGEST problem I have with the movie... Predators genetically altering themselves... That there is without a doubt the most DUMBEST F*CKING thing EVER... Of all time! I hated the idea then and I hated the Idea days before, and I still hate It today! Why would Yautjas alter themselves? First off, I don't believe at ALL that It Is within the yautja's scientific capability to know genetic alteration and how that shit works, they wouldn't have a scientific Interest In It at all, and 2nd, It doesn't sound like or fit the yautjas at all! Predators do not need to alter themselves to make themselves better hunters... No reason whatsoever. A yautja relies on they're true strengths and that's what shines bright and it shows TRUE worthiness and honor and commands respect from other Yautjas. But for a yautja to genetically alter themselves is pretty much the equivalent of taking steroids, they're only making themselves better artificially, why be better when it's not your true strength that shines but rather artificially and so much to the point where your no longer a yautja anymore, your nothing more then a f*cking monstrosity? Your pretty a Bad Blood If your doing that shit to yourself and others and you get off on that! Like I said, It's NOT within the yautja's scientific capabilities and It does not sound like something a yautja would do to themselves or other yautjas, unless they're, again, a bad blood… Other then that, NO Yautja F*CKING EVER has done that... Even If Its only a small faction of Bad Blood yautjas doing this, which It is BTW, It still, to me at least, Ain't right at all! A human on the other hand would definitely do that to themselves, hell, they'd do it to pretty much, just about anything because Its a human thing to do, but not a yautja. Honestly, It would actually make 10x more sense if the humans were the ones genetically altering the yautjas and making them into their own personal weapons to combat other yautjas, a sort of Anti-Predator weapon, now that I would buy because It is exactly what humans would do. But for a yautja to do that to themselves... It just sounds so wrong in so many levels... And apparently they aren't just trophy hunting, They're also collecting Spinal fluids so that they can collect DNA to put Into themselves... Seriously, just what the f*ck!? Again, It Is only a small faction of bad blood yautjas doing this shit, but I honestly don't F*cking care, It's still wrong... Oh! And here's the kicker, Predators genetically altering themselves is not a new concept... It was actually In the script for predators in which the super Predators would've hunted for DNA to make themselves to make them stronger and powerful... This of course was dropped from the movie, and I'm sure there is probably a very good reason why that concept didn't make it into the final movie... Because it was obviously stupid as F*CK, but for Shane Black to try that shit again In this movie... That there deserves a facepalm because It's a really f*cking dumb concept that has NO place In a f*cking predator movie unless It the humans doing the genetic altering to the predators, and that's just a fact, and it's, again, the BIGGEST problem I have with the movie and that concept can go right up Shane black's anal cavity, just far up there...

Another issue I have with the movie is shit like predators trying to conquer earth when it gets all fucking humid and hot as hell... F*CK me... That again is pretty dumb... Sure the Predators have other planets where they have their own little game preserves and Temples set up by their ancestors a hunt xenomorphs, but just like the Predators genetically altering themselves, the idea that the Predators want to conquer Earth is also pretty fucking stupid... Earth is basically already a game preserve planet for them, so why in the unholy f*ck would they want to conquer it...

I also didn't like that our new predator friend, Fugitive, was apparently coming to Earth to give Humanity weapons against the faction of Predators altering they're DNA and wanting to conquer the Earth... If I remember correctly... Yautjas NEVER EVER want their technology in the hands of humans. Yautja technology is sacred to them and must never fall into the hands of humans because if it does, humans will just end up using that technology against the yautjas when they come to hunt... Remember in Predator: Concrete Jungle where Scarface left behind his technology and gear and tried to blow himself and everything around him up only for him to somehow survive that explosion and then to be exiled for a hundred years by his clan only to come back to take back the technology that he left behind, anybody remember that? I think the only exception is if the human was hunting alongside the Predators, like for example, Machiko Noguchi, otherwise, no yautja ever would ever let their technology in the hands of humans.

And oohhhhh... Don't get me started on the Ultimate, or assassin, or upgrade or whatever the f*ck... Seriously, this f*cker goes by so many names, let's just call him ultimate, anyways, ultimate, I f*cking hate him, I hated in the Moment I Saw the trailer that he appears in and I still hate him today! I don't even know where to begin with this one, I hate his design, I hate how he looks, I his concept, I just hate him in general. Definitely not one of my favorite predators, in fact, he's he put berserker at 2nd of my disliked predators believe It or not. Ultimate Is really nothing more then the predator equivalent of the newborn from Alien Resurrection... Yeah, I went there, deal with It... Ultimate SUCKS and there Is NO reason he should even exist in the movie or franchise In general...

I should also mention the Movie's pacing, holy hell, It just jumps from one story to another and before you know it, action happens immediately without build-up... No joke... The movie has Fugitive get into an escape pod and then makes landfall, conveniently near where the main human character is, and the main human immediately has an encounter with fugitive after talking his shit. And when we head over to Stargazer base, They already have Fugitive in custody strapped to a stretcher or operating table and fugitive wakes up, breaks free and escapes, WOW... That was f*cking fast... I have to ask how the hell my Boi fugitive managed to get found & captured too? What, did he break his legs when he got hit? The Boi was awake, Not like he was d*cking around in the woods! 

Also... The Emissary predator getting cut out from the movie... F*CK me man!!!

And the ending... Holy f*ck the ending is without a doubt the WORST ending in a predator movie EVER... Of all time! It's horrible, just horrible... It's bad enough that apparently Fugitive was going to give Humanity weapons against the Predators wanting to come and conquer the Earth, it's even dumber when the weapon itself is nothing more than some Iron Man suit-up bullshittery... Just... F*ck the ending, I hate it, just... No... No...

And that's all the shit I have to say...

Now to what few of the positives I have to say about this shit movie, starting with... well, there were actually some pretty funny moments in the movie, I have to admit, I actually found myself laughing at some of the shit the human characters say, which Is rare for me, hell, even our new predator friend Fugitive had some funny moments...

Speaking of Fugitive, I really like him, definitely one of my new favorite predators, I love his design, his armor has definitely grown on me, and he seriously he had me both laughing, surprised and a bit spooked. Parts like taking a severed arm and then doing a thumbs-up with it and pointing for the humans to drop their weapons made me laugh, it's f*cking great when a yautja has a sense of humor. And probably my favorite scene in the movie where he beats the living Shit out of people during his escape are pretty bloody & brutal, then takes one of the guard's guns and shoots up the place, I love It! Reminds me of a little stunt my boyfriend pulled during one of his SCP games, we need more of that in future predator movies. Also... Fugitive Is pretty to look at... I mean, not at the same cute level as scar, but Is still a pretty yautja, he's just so beautiful, Still didn't like the fact that he has human DNA in him, but I think the explanation behind that, which is revealed when the Kid in the movie looks into the bio-mask, is that may have he joined a group of predators that were genetically altering themselves and they put human DNA into him against his will, and when he found out what they're sinister plans were, he just noped it right the f*ck out of there and that's why ultimate was chasing his ass. Fugitive died brutally though, I haven't seen a yautja die that horribly since crucified's death, that wasn't a positive BTW...

Speaking of the kid, I actually like the kid In the movie, which Is, for me at least, rare to like a human character in the alien & predator franchise. The only human In the franchise I like is Machiko because she is a Badass! As for the kid, he's great, he's adorable, I can see my future Dachande and Yeyinde being similer to kid, in personality that is. Its also interesting that the kid has autism, specifically Asperger's, as someone who has a spectrum disorder and had to be around other kids with some form or level of autism throughout my school years, Its kinda nice to see a character like that.

Something else that I and a lot of other fans would've loved to see would be the emissary predators that where cut out from the movie. I honestly would've loved to see these predators, sure I wasn't crazy for how they're faces looked and they could defiantly do without the camo cargo pants, but otherwise, I'd love to see them. It's just a shame that they out cut out from the movie...

I talked about this already, but again, I really love how the Predators Kill the humans in a brutally bloody way it's great, I love it!

I also really like the they added subtitles and translations to what the Predators are saying.

And that's all I have to say about the movie, honestly, I feel like I have more issues with the movie that I do positives, and it's going to be hard for me to accept the added new lore of yautjas genetically altering themselves, I still have a hard time wrapping my brain around that... And I flat-out refuse to believe it or go with it, and it's not leaving a very good feeling in me... Both physically and mentally...

Honestly, after seeing the movie, It left me pretty depressed and dead on the inside, like, am I going to have to accept the new shit like yautjas genetically altering themselves and having Iron man Rip-off suits? It felt like everything I knew and loved about yautjas was gone... I actually came dangerously close to wanting to quit alien & predator, because there is NO WAY In hell I'm going to accept that as canon, because to me... Its NOT canon, It will NEVER be canon! I feel like If I did that... What is my life then? I grew up loving Alien & Predator and They're part of my life, and I feel like they're part of me and what makes my personality and just ME in general... Without Alien & Predator... I'd feel pretty dead on the inside and I wouldn't know what the hell to do with my life or how to keep sane... I will still continue to always love alien & predator from the bottom of my heart, I will continue to love them in the same level as I love my boyfriend, but any of the new shit from The Predator Is NOT canon and I refuse to acknowledge It as canon, I'm very much happy with the traditional Yautjas, thank you very much!

Sorry if my opinions on the movie isn't going to sit well with everybody else here and I'm probably may or may not be the only one that stands alone in some of the negative things that I have to say, well I guess I'm the fugitive then. Shane Black... I haven't seen piss-poor depictions of the predator race since John Shirly's Predator: forever midnight... I'm am very very disappointed with this movie and you most of all... Both you and this movie have failed me... I hope you never make another predator movie In the future after this and I suggest hanging yourself back up on that tree from the first movie there... The Predator honestly just shows how much Shane black didn't care about predator or the extended universe, Its shows how much he didn't care for the fans and what we the fans wanted... Shane black should've done his homework... If we do get another predator movie... Lord knows when that'll happen... Please have it go back to the traditionial yautjas, just the way they are suppost to be, and let It have NOTHING to do with this movie or any of the new shit from this movie and Please have a female yautja appear onscreen for a change!

Mictlan was ruled by King Mictlantechtil, Lord of the Underworld, and his wife, Mitecacihuat, Lady of the Underworld. Mictlantechtil was the God of the dead and the king of Mictlan. His domain was the lowest and northernmost section of the underworld. He was one of the principal gods of the Aztecs and was the most prominent of several Gods and Goddesses of death in the underworld, one of them being Cihuacoatl, The Goddess of Motherhood and fertility who commanded Mictlan spirits called Cihuateteo, Spirits of women who died in childbirth. The worship of Mictlantechtil sometimes involved ritual cannibalism, with the human flesh being consumed in and around the temple. Mictlantechtil was 6 foot tall blood-spattered skeleton with eyes in his sockets. He wore a headdress decorated with owl feathers and paper banners, he wore a necklace of human eyeballs, while his earspools were made from human bones.

Now i've talked about in my blog on how I really hated the Scar+Lex shippings and how so wrong it is that people are doing this to scar predator... But in this blog however, I'm gonna be talking about my AVP guilty pleasure... Everybody has a guilty pleasure for something, but as for me, my AVP guilty pleasure is... Alien Loves Predator... And I just know I'm gonna be getting alot of sh*t from people commenting on this and hating on me for being into the Alien Loves Predator thing... Understand though that Alien Loves Predator started out as a Spoof webcomic before the damn shippers came along and turned it into a shipping. Alien Loves Predator, or ALP to fans, is a webcomic that spoofs the Alien vs. Predator franchise, reversing the adversarial relationship depicted in the comics, books, games and movies, ALP presents a xenomorph named Abe (depicted as a male & is the humorous type) and a yautja named Preston (who is the more rational of the two and appears to wear glasses in some comics) as friends and roommates in modern-day New York. Ever since the comic's release, fans have gotten into the ALP fandom, especially the shippers that went and made ALP into a shipping. Now I am a HUGE fan of Alien & Predator, and I know full well of the relationship yautjas have with xenomorphs, being that the yautjas consider xenomorphs to be the "Ultimate prey" and they clearly have a significant understanding of xenomorphs and they do have far greater respect and control over the xenomorphs. To the yautja, the xenomorphs are they're eternal foe and most respected prey. But as ashamed as I am to admit... For some reason, I've always found the idea of alien & predator together as best friends really cute :3 As much as I hate shippings, but there are some some shippings that I do find to be more accurate, And I have been guilty of being into the ALP thing... But in all honesty, if someone were to ask me to choose between the Scar+Lex shippings & ALP... I will most likely go with ALP, I really can't stand the Damn Scar+Lex shippings... And it really doesn't help when Scar predator is almost the yautja equivalent of my boyfriend, as my boyfriend does have the same qualities & personality that I liked in Scar predator. So to me, seeing a Scar+Lex shipping is like seeing my boyfriend being shipped with a girl I really hate and wanna go F*cking Wolf Predator on her! Scar+Lex shippings are nothing but poison!!! Now as for the the ALP, again, I've always found the idea of it really cute, I even went as far as to actually draw chibi versons of them being best friend and doing cute best friend things when I was young, and I still have those pictures. Remember those commercials they did for the DVD release of Aliens Vs. Predator requiem where they had Alien & Predator as roommates doing funny and silly gags like poker, fighting over pizza and all that roommate stuff? I freaken Loved those commercials! But i find it disappointing that the did it for the DVD release of AVPR, because that movie sucked... They also did commercials where Wolf predator & an alien warrior are playing soccer. I do feel thought that they should've wasted the commercials on advertising of the DVD release on a crappy movie, Instead, made them into funny shorts that you'd watch on Youtube. So whats the appeal for ALP? While the idea of the concept started out as humor, but when the shippers came around, they made ALP into a shipping, from doing fanart to even writing fanfic... No seriously, they actually do fanfic with ALP & even human-predator romance fanfic.... WHY!? I often wonder if these people have any mental problems, because that is not normal at all! But nontheless, the appeal for ALP could just be the very idea of Alien & Predator being best friends or lovers, rather then being enemies, is cute or adorable. I myself am guilty for shipping Alien & Predator, but I DON'T ship them as lovers, I ship them as best friends with a sort of Brother Sister relationship, which BTW is alot cuter than them  being lovers, because with Alien & Predator being best friends, you have both the humor and the cute factor at the same time and its appropriate, while have them being lovers is... Well, while you do have the cute factor, but then you another factor thats really unnecessary and it does go way out of line, especially to what normal people are use to, and only people with sick minds actually like it, that factor happens to involve sex and anything sexual... Yeah, and that is an issue with ALP... I am going to make this clear, ALP is NOT cannon in the AVP universe, and it is ok only, and I do mean ONLY in the universe of ficition as long as it is appropriate and NOT sexual. And while Alien Vs. Predator is awesome and badass and full of action, Alien Loves Predator on the otherhand is both cute and funny, and thats why me and fans of ALP like it.

Well there is alot of hype regarding Alien Covenant, The Predator & Alien 5 movies that will be coming out in theathers next year and 2018, but for Alien 5... though we don't know when the movie will come out in theathers, but we do have concept art shows an older Ripley & Hicks... And I'm not liking whatever Ideas they have for Alien 5... Personally, I feel that the idea of bringing back Ripley and newt is really unnecessary. Now I wouldn't mind them bringing back Hicks, which is actaully fine because he survives and the reason for his survival in Aliens: Colonial Marines was well explained, being that he was awaken from hypersleep by Samwell Stone & Turk, but when a firefight erupts between them & the USS Legato, Turk was knocked into Hick's cryotube and sealed inside was subsequently lauched aboard the departing EEV, along with Ripley with the facehugger attached to her face, Newt & Bishop. In Alien 3, we were meant to believe that hicks had been killed in the crash landing on Fiorina 161, but it was actually Turk in Hicks' place, and because Turk's corpse was maimed, he was unidentifiable, and was mistaken for hicks. After a 2-day trip, Hicks & Stone arrived just in time to see Ripley sacrifice herself, which Hicks falls into despair as he fell to his knees, he & Stone were then captured by Michael Bishop's commandos and taken to the resolute, a Weyland-Yutani FTL ship stationed at their origin facility and the two were interrogated for information. Stone was executed for failing to comply & Hicks  was freed by Weyland-Yutani reseacher Rick Levy. hicks would later join the Sephora Marines, his ultimate fate after the events of Aliens: Colonial Marines is unknown, but If the movie wants to bring back Hicks, the way they can do this is by making Hicks older and have him still be in hiding from Weyland-Yutani by going under a different name. He is asked by a commanding colonial marines officer to join them and help fight off the xenomorph Infestation, but he refuses at first because of what had happen to his squad and especially Ripley, but then remembering Ripley and her sacrifice, he decides he'll help out and all hell breaks lose. It would be also better if the movie can add flashbacks of Ripley for a bit of nostalgia. That would be way better then to bring Ripley & newt back and there is no reason to bring them back because they are dead!!! And Alien Resurrection's attempt and reason for bringing back Ripley was really ridiculous and the movie was nothing more then a Mind-F*ck and It sucked so hard... Apparently the idea of Alien 5 would pretend that Alien 3 & Alien Resurrection had never happened and that the franchise would be passed on to an older newt, but really it would be better if it were passed on to hicks since, again, he survived! Believe it or not, there is a character in a series of Aliens novels named Billie who appears in Aliens: Earth War, Aliens: Earth Hive, Aliens: Outbreak, Aliens: Female War, Aliens: Nightmare Asylum & Aliens: Genocide and was originally an older newt, however, when newt was scripted to die in Alien 3, the character was changed to Billie. Now if we wanna pretendthat Alien 3 & Alien Resurrection never happened, why don't we pretend that just Alien Resurrection never happened, or even exists for that matter because Alien Resurrection was a really shitty & a Mind-F*ck of movie, personally, I've never had a problem with Alien 3, and I actually like the movie, but I really don't understand why everybody else has such a damn problem with Alien 3, I mean, Its not a bad movie, but at the same time, Its not great either, I will admit, but I think Its an ok movie overall and It did bring out a new Interesting characteristic in the xenomorphs development within a non-human host as well as a queen chestburster. My guess is to  why people hated Alien 3 could stem for many reasons, whether It be that the runner alien as CGI in some parts of the movie, or maybe It was the setting of the movie, but It would probably be because Ripley sacrifices herself at the end, and you know what... Please understand that she did what she had to in order to make sure that Weyland-yutani never get their hands on the xenomorph queen inside her, fear that a xenomorph outbreak would threathen a population on any planet. Now with this new Alien movie, people want her back and they don't even understand that bringing her and newt  back would do nothing but f*ck up everything in the franchise! I feel that the Alien movies should not need Sigourney weaver to keep coming back as Ripley in order for them to be popular and Liked by fans, humans don't make the alien movies, Its the xenomorphs that make the alien movies damn It! The Idea of an aged Hicks coming back would be better and the flashbacks of Ripley is pretty much the best Ripley fans are gonna get! They can either take it, or just don't bother. But thats my thought, and alot of you probably don't get a shit... I'd like to hear the thoughts of those that actually do give a rat's ass. PLEASE DON'T BRING BACK RIPLEY & NEWT!!!!!

The long running arguement of how one pronounces "Yautja", has been debated by many fans, but just why exactly do we argue about it? It more so depends on the person whose saying it. However, Its different when you see a word you never heard of before. Lets do an example.... See this word here?                                                                                               

                                                                                     Yautja


Now think really hard, how would you pronounce this word? You've never heard of such a word before, so how does one say this word? You may at first pronounce this word as "Yaw-ja" or "Yat-ja". Believe me, I've pronounced it as "Yaw-ja" before in the past. The reason you would pronounce it as "Yaw-ja" or "Yat-ja" is because your separating the "Yaut" & "ja". You may even be pronouncing it as "yawt-jah", usuing a 2 syllable breakdown or you pronounce it with a silent "j", making it into "Yaw-tah". Weird how very differently people pronounce one word, but then to make an arguement out of it. Because you pronounce the word one way, the other person may pronounce it in another. The use of "Y" sounds the same as the english "Y" or "U". The "au" sounds the same as "Audio" or "August", "ah", "aw", "augh" & "al", just like "au", stand for the vowel sound /o/. The "T" sounds are the same as the english "T", as the english use of the "j" is actually pronounced as "H" in Spanish. Yautja would sound more like "U-aht'ha", which kinda sounds like "you aught ha", which is funny when you think of it, in the English-Spanish usage of proper pronouncaitoin. However, most people, including myself have pronounced the word as "ee-Wat-ja", and the first time I saw that pronouncaition of the word... My mind was F*cking befuddled, because I thought, "How the the hell is it pronounced like that?" To me, it didn't make any goddamn sense, especially seeing how its spelled. I now used this pronouncaition, but still hated it. But you might very suprised to find out the actual pronouncaition of the word. According to Steve C. Perry, the author of many of the Aliens novels, Predator: Turnabout & Aliens Vs. Predator: Prey, the word "Yautja" is actually pronounced "Ya-oot-chah", with the accent on the 2nd syllable, and where the "ch" is close to a "j" sound. And in the Facebook game, Soldiers inc- Alien vs. Predator event, a female Weyland-Yutani worker even pronounces "Yautja" as "Ya-oot-chah", and of course hearing that shocked me as well as made me feel like an Idiot for pronouncing "Yautja" wrong... I'm still learning to say "Yautja" as "Ya-oot-chah". But the long running arguement will still continue on when it comes to the pronouncaition of "Yautja".
