The Wolverine vs Predator was a Good Attempt too.
Found an AVP one for you.....an intense CGI short with a buttload of action.
That was pretty cool dk. Deserves a decent title at least lol.
Behind the scenes, the "Mandibles" were actually the idea of Terminator and Avatar creator/director James Cameron. Cameron was sat on a plane with legendary creature effects maestro Stan Winston when Winston was sketching designs for the first movie (a Rastafarian-esque, tribal hunter) after it was decided to redesign the antagonist of the movie. Cameron related he had always wanted to see something with Mandibles and thus Winston added them to his design.
Yes, it could very well be a courtship thing. But females have the fangs too. Maybe it is about how one carries him/herself?
Not too shabby for a fan fic with the bold title of Untitled Predator Fan Film.

IRaptus 2:50 on your video- Arny sure got younger lol!
The bright mouth piece is a bit jarring but it looks more subdued in the trailers.
There's this one too, if you haven't seen it.
pfft A Yautja would win hands down! XD
I think you hit pay dirt here BigDave! Top shelf fan fiction here. Thanks for sharing! This is really good and makes me wonder if more Predator Universe stuff is out there. Things like this are perfect to build enthusiasm for the new movie without a bunch of revealing trailers.
.........there are lots of possibilities for Holy Grail references here too!
That was a fascinating clip, and insight! That noise is so iconic!
I always thought it was some type of modified woodpecker sound effect lol
Thanks for sharing!
This is an excellent fanshot short film! It has a decent cult following and was the result of a community crowd-funded event, something similar to what dk was trying to organise last year with the group video submissions.
Thats interesting ;)
I think i will have to invest into looking at/reading some Novels, may as-well while i dont really SLEEP lol so maybe those Prey and War Novels are worth checking out.
I am smelling the Female Protagonist is lead to think Predators are coming here to Genetically Evolve themselves, but she latter finds out actually its the Company that is Genetically Engineering the Predator DNA.
Maybe the Predators could be trying to Harness our DNA and the Company then think... Actually we should Genetically Mess about and Create our own Predator.
Appears to me we see those Soldiers suffering from PTSD are ambushed because those Predators are after ONE Guy in Particular, i have a feeling these Predators... or another two latter, will team up with these guys to put a Stop to the Military Company using/reverse Engineering Predator Tech... then they unleash their Frankenstein on those guys and Predators.
BigDave funny how things are added with no real purpose other than to look cool... then its left to the next content creators to flesh out, or fans to theorise on :)
ali81 is on the mark, they are depicted as sexual selection traits in some of the novels; Perry's Prey and War novels at the least.
Perhaps if Tiwaz is about he can confirm if this was addressed in Lebbon's Rage War trilogy....I can't remember lol
BigDave It sounds like this Predator is not a complete surprise to something like a research company. It seems possible there could be a Frankenstein's monster angle to it.
Indeed looks a slightly exaggerated version of what we may see in the Predator...
By that i mean like this ;)
DK Certainly a Good Spot....
So we could see a Predator Siding with some Humans vs Corporate/Military Scientific kind of Company... Which maybe would make sense for the Mega-Predator to be a Engineered Frankenstein of a Predator these guys would use to their own Agenda.
Looks great. Love that golden parts. I must say that this is bigger redesign than i expected. It will take time to get used to it. I am not entirely sure on that mouth golden triangle, but overall looks pretty good.
Ha! ^^^ Well that explains Thomas Jane's character in The Predator see
That looks pretty badass!
There’s more a sense of espionage thriller to this one
It's like this, see? Puts down that Shuriken or my boys will fit you with concrete galoshes and send you to an eternal vacation with the fishes see?
The female is aiming at the human. Let the reckless theories begin!
I can only assume they maybe have the same Purpose as TUSKS
But i think at INCEPTION of Concept... it was to make the Predator look Awesome and Original and so it was a Aesthetic to make the Creature Stand Out without actually having any real Purpose... We have the same with the Xenomorph and its Dorsal Pipes/Tubes.
Which because we dont have a clear Purpose... allows us to Debate such things and try and come up for a Logical Reason for them.
they don't really look like theyd be strong enough to have any use on inflicting damage so id say theyl be for courting purposes. maybe the bigger the fangs and wider they spread the more attractive a mate they make?
I wouldn't mind seeing the net that gave Grid his namesake from AVP.
Seeing that Mr Peele is in this adds some extra cool for me. Great range. Here is a taste.

I will say, i think ADI's practical effects appear to have improved. The look of the unmasked 'standard' predator looks more closer to the look of the Stan Winston predator in the original. The unmasked predator in avp looked a little softer and gentle, but that was probably because it was young and an ally. The predator in avp-r looked exaggerated and almost cartoonish unmasked. It translated better in figure form than film but it looked farther away from the original unmasked face.
The closest we've gotten to the original is the classic predator in predators but even then some sort of 'edge' was missing in the design.
I like the look of the new guy and i feel confident in the look of the unmasked predator.
Looking forward to this.
I like the look of the big bastard. theyv kept it simple and not gone over board by trying to make it look half man/half yautja as this is probably a man made experiment. itl be a 'company suit' and be sent out to protect the evil companies interests
Wow .. I'm speechless.
wonder if wel get a sacrifice ending like in AVPR to kill this beast?
dk,couldn't agree more. wev had a wee taste but hope they don't give too much away like what happened with AC. though I do get the feeling itl be a similar plot to concrete jungle. itl probably take the combined efforts of multiple yautja and the mercs to bring this bad mo-fo down
Looking really good. I hope they keep trailers minimal. There is a lot to think about just with this trailer.
interesting! Sure looks like a beast
I believe it is the PREDATOR that's considered the "hybrid" or the "upgrade".
Awesomely huge and deadly...
This does add a bit of a spin on my interpretation up until this later Trailer as it reveals the Predator/s are after someone of interest and attack the Bus carrying those PTSD Soldiers on...
So now the Super Pred Guy is the Good Guy? yet the Set-leaks we see their are TWO other Normal Predators working with those Humans?
Mind you The Predator went through Re-Shoots and we dont know how heavy these could have been... maybe they could be as heavy as the Han-Solo movie Re-shoots?
Looking at the evidence we have it appears we could be seeing at least 3-4 Predators.
