Surviving the predator? You mean being part of a minecraft youtuber's discord before your 18th birthday?

Otis Driftwood from House of 1000 Corpses. He has no supernatural powers.

I have lived around crazy rednecks all my life (Indiana and Florida). Pretty sure I could outwit 1 crazy redneck, and with 3 Billion I could afford to finally escape this hellhole.

The predator does not kill children or pregnant women. Predator 2 showed that. A kid with a toy UZI spotted the predator with his light bending and as a precaution the predator armed his shoulder cannon, but upon sensing it was not a real gun he disarmed it.

Also the subway showed he found a fetus developing in a woman and immediately released her.

[–] GelatinGeorge@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Okay, so be a pregnant child. Got you.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I am neither of those things.

[–] Klear@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

According to another post here, you need to antagonise Sadako first...

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No, but you would be an unarmed helpless guy. Not sporting enough for a predator. Or at least you will fake being helpless! There is no honor in slaughter.

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago

Surely the Predator would be able to tell when someone is faking helplessness...

Freddie Krueger... Just stay awake

Godzilla. Then I'd go hang out at the White House.

If we're doing irl monsters, Henry Kissinger. Even before he was dead, I could take him.

I'm going with Jaws, and staying home.

[–] Anomalocaris@lemm.ee 14 points 2 days ago

weather alert, there's a tornado on your way...

hope it doesn't launch a weird franchise

[–] Daft_ish@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 2 days ago

Maybe gage from pet cemetery. Im not his dad so maybe I have to punt a child.

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'd go with Hopper from A Bug's Life. I'm sure he's a huge threat to Dave Foley and Julia Louse-Dreyfus, but I ain't worried about no grasshopper, even one voiced by Kevin Spacey.

This made me look up the actual Predator code of Honor and I quote

"Unarmed and/or "innocent" beings may be hunted if they:

Are the specific objective of a hunt."

Sorry Op, you're still screwed.

Jaws is objectively the best choice anyway. Just drive inland.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

Imagine being out hunting and you walk right near an old injured wild pig and it just sits there staring at you.

Be funny if the Predator pats the guy on the head before leaving.

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The girl from Teeth. I mean, worst case...

Full disclosure: I have not actually seen the movie.

Whoa, I truly had no idea. That's pretty wild.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 29 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Obviously Freddy Krueger. Just stay awake 24 hours. The really difficulty is when you can't stay awake and you accidentally fall asleep. But I think staying awake 24 hours is pretty easy.

[–] Nelots@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 days ago

Yeah, with billions on the line, 24 hours is a cake walk

[–] tino@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (2 children)

The Refregirator (yeah, it's a thing: https://www.imdb.com/fr/title/tt0102767/), It's a haunted / gate of hell fridge attacking a couple who just moved in a shitty appartment. Even if you unplug it, it still tries to eat you or send his minions (toaster, blender...) so I'll surely die horribly but I'm all for fighting against electric appliances.

[–] GreenCrunch@lemmy.today 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

All good until the printer comes after you. Printers are haunted normally, so I imagine under this scenario they'd be even more malevolent...

I wanted to say Freddy, because 24 hours without sleep would be easy-peasy. ...then I realized Im not a teenageer anymore and would probably take a nap anyways.

Sadako. Her curse takes 7 days to take effect, assuming it's gone once 24 hours are up. Else, Jaws can't get you if you're nowhere close to the sea.

Freddy Kruger, as long as I have prep time. Get a good night sleep the night before? Staying awake for 24 hours is pretty trivial. I can get up at 6 one morning and stay up til 6 the next morning. I'm willing to screw my sleep cycle up for a few days in exchange for 3 billion dollars.

The Tyrannosaurus rex from Jurassic Park because first of all, I'm actually pretty sure I'd be fine so long as I can get in my car and drive away at a reasonable pace. Secondly, just think of the absolutely incredible collateral damage. Even if I get killed, it would be one of the most talked-about and confusing incidents in American history for the rest of time.
