so much fun! thanks for having me

I love that they incorporated native actors, staff, and assistants. Really showed how dedicated they are to this story and inclusion.

It would be sick if they kept making movies in this style. There's so many they could. Samurai, Viking, Roman/Greek, Masai, Aztec. Honestly any historic civilization that had warriors could be really cool.

Fun fact: The Feral Predator (to my knowledge) actually broke one of the yautja's honor codes. It was established in the source material that if they come across a worthy opponent, they must de-cloak and face them head-on. Since the Feral Predator actually re-cloaked after the brother displayed being worthy and killed him while cloaked, he would be considered a bad blood and would be banished or killed. Side note: Take this with a grain of salt

Dane picking you up to carry you to the numbers was such a fun moment, wonderful to see people being so wholesome.

The crew member shouting "NO, COME HERE" at Coco the dog is so relatable 🤣

I loved how tight the script was and how everything was set up to help Naru defeat the Predator! The orange flower, the bog, the bear-trap which led to the fur-trappers, the pistol - it was all so efficiently written. I also love how, at the end, Naru gives the Predator's mask and the settler's gun equal status in proving her worth as a warrior - to her, both were predatory forces in the land that she had to destroy.

Such a sick Kill count!!!!! I had the pleasure of playing the flintlock-pistol toting Raphael in the movie. I've only ever watched the movie once because it was so stressful to watch my performance here, haha 😄. This breakdown let me enjoy the whole thing again in a different way! I get so emotional when Naru does that final victory scream 😭 Thanks so much for making this! It was a pleasure to watch and enjoy!!!

I thought it was crazy when you got people like Ray Chase, Nathan Baesel, and the cast of Host in your kill counts. Hell, you even got the predator himself (Dane Dilliegro) in this one too. But it's absolutely mindblowing that you also got freakin' Santa Claus to show up during the sponsored segment. Seriously, HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS JAMES?????

I was one of the mechanics who worked on the animatronic heads and I'm glad you got the number of servos correct. I know that is a weird thing to be happy about but it was a crazy amount of servos to get all the movement that was wanted. All of the mechanics were really happy with how much the mandibles were able to move and twitch. Trying to fit all those servos into the head was a challenge in itself and I have to give it up to Dane for putting in the time while he was quarantined in Canada before shooting started to train for being able to carry the weight of the head.

The fact that this movie has gotten a Comanche dub is incredible. I love international dubs, but this amazes me that this is the first film to be dubbed in a Native American language.

This movie is a perfect example of a strong female character done well. She is compassionate, has real emotions, and wins using her wit and cunning. All these movies that portray a “strong” woman as a stoic brute are missing the point

Dude, you managed to bring the actor that played the Predator to be on this video, that's an amazing achievement of yours. Kudos to you man.

I’m not a member of the Comanche tribe, but all native across Turtle Island were cheering and hollering the whole time watching this movie. It feels so good getting media attention in a more positive human spotlight cause traditionally we are just cannon fodder or like zombies to just kill cause we are in the way. This movie was so fun to watch. Thanks for covering it. (Also little side note they dubbed the whole movie in the Comanche language which is so cool!)

For me, it's Naru's war cry at the end that gives me goosebumps. An affirmation of her skill and victory as a true warrior.

One thing I love about this movie is that in the scene with the bear, you see her notice that she’s downwind which makes her draw her bow in the first place. Amazing attention to detail.

Being of Native Descent myself and having loved the Predator franchise since I was young, this movie was a big thing for me. I got to see Native representation in a fight against a creature I idolized since I was a kid. I loved this movie.

This was the last film my grandad saw before he died and it was the most lively we had ever seen him, he absolutely loved it. So glad your covering this

I love how Dane counts his kills in the first person.
