Japan would unironically work since that island was pretty much in constant wars. I don't think China had any interesting conflicts besides getting buttfucked by the Brits.

I really enjoyed Prey. Happy to piss people off by saying it's now my favourite Predator movie. The pacing, the less absurd characters and the greater suspense all were much more to my taste. This predator felt a lot more threatening than in other movies and I liked the primitive aesthetic to his armour. It does look like what an advanced species might wear if they were addicted to primal hunting. I wonder what their culture is like - did they achieve some kind of post-scarcity utopia and then consciously turn their back on it or decide that they needed to keep a connection with their more violent past? Hence all the spears and boomerangs and grapples when they could easily just fly overhead and strafe people with advanced technology if they chose. Clearly the sport and the challenge is important to them because they don't do that but why...? Is this just a hobby for a subset of their species? Like their equivalent of MMA or rock climbing? Or is it integral to who they are? The fact that they are willing to die for it and have on occasion recognized humans as attaining status with themselves suggests the latter.
In any case, I'm going to buy this film when it's out I like it that much. I've read some of the complaints here. I certainly don't think it's woke. The Comanche probably were a pretty gender-roled society and there's nothing inherently wrong with a story about a girl going against that. It becomes annoying when to do so it shows all the guys unrealistically as bigotted against her and 'wrong because male'. Her brother was a pretty excellent guy and most of the other dudes were just, you know, dudes. Who were willing to fight and die to protect their tribe. It's not wrong that someone should have to prove themselves worthy to be a part of a group when lives are on the line. She does. And her brother defends her and gives her chances. And it's also not set in modern day where frankly it's a strawman to show that sort of attitude in most of the business / work world in the West.
As to her killing the predator by herself, I honestly find it more realistic than Arnie hauling up a big hardwood log high into the trees with no winches and no power tools and rigging it to swing down. Have you ever tried to move a log that size by hand? The predator at that point had been shot multiple times, had a bear trap on its leg, been mauled by a bear, hand-fought about thirty guys in the last hour and most of the wounds she inflicted on it were done with its own weaponry. Quite neatly too, I thought. This predator felt a lot more savage and scary than previous movies.
Full recommendation from me.

The one upside to Prey is that it might open the door for scripts like this.

Nigga, she's commanche. She's also at the peak of her physical health. Sure, she's a tiny woman, but her doing a bit of parkour and knowing how to do that kind of shit in a forest, assuming that she spent all of her life wanting to be a warrior and learning with fight with commanche warriors, it's not in any way as ludicrous as the shit that goes on with Old Man Glover in Predator 2
Man can barely run 4 feet without getting winded in the movie. Just look at the 'I'll show insubordination' trot he makes.
You wanna talk about unrealistic shit? The car scene where he rips his door and he's driving shooting at people full on blasting at him with automatic rifles isn't on the internet. That's how retarded it is.
You're gonna tell me those two fight scenes are more believable?
In fact, this whole franchise is trash, excluding the original Predator, which is somehow one of the best movies of all time. Everything that came afterwards is fucking terrible, but as far as Predator movies go, Prey is at least much better than most of the other sequels, and you can't complain about 'muh realism' about this one and ignore how every single other predator movie has the exact same fucking flaws, often far worse.

Predator 2 is unrealistic for sure but everything else in the movie makes up for it.
Prey is shit on every level. Nothing about it is memorable, it was filmed in English, the main girl is a Naruto character, all the best parts were achieved with PS4 cut scene-tier CGI.

No, not everything else makes up for it, it's an aged piece of shit that people like for nostalgia value but it's actually fucking terrible. SCORPIO IS READ, the ganja car, the fucking voodoo king, it's all late 80s cringe. It sucked then, it sucks now.
Actually it turns out I never watched AvP: Requiem, I'm about to start it now, maybe it's the redeeming movie in the series I hadn't seen yet.

Predator 2's practical effects alone make up for it, and blow Prey out of the water.
I'm not opposed to CGI but Prey relied on it way too much for my taste. It completely robbed the film of any visceral feeling it could've had.
Give me late 80's cringe over 2020's cringe any day.

I will agree with this, 100%
It wasn't 80s cringe, though, it was early 90s cringe. Escape from LA cringe.

You called it late 80's cringe.

It was filmed late 89, came out in 90, calling it either/or is the same thing. When people talk about 80s stuff, they don't mean something that started in December of 89.

Why do Native Americans have a reputation for being badass anyways? When the Euros came they were completely BTFOd and only spared by Colonials kindness.

What's your point? I only called it 80's cringe because you did.
I know when it was filmed and when it was released etc.

Requiem goes HARD on the kills. Pregnant women, kids, old folks, you name it. Most movies don't have the balls to really commit to some gruesome shit like it did. It's got a meh cast though and a really weak romance subplot. "Oh gee, I decided to dump my boyfriend after I just sat there and watched him kick your ass and toss your car keys in the sewer. Teehee, I like you more." That and the abysmal color correction that was done that makes the movie nigh unwatchable at parts.
The scene where the pregnant woman winds up with a belly full of chestbursters is metal. Like something out of the old Dark Horse comics.
