Guys, we’re eating SO GOOD this year! It’s the team up I was dying for! The new predator is a younger one, a young adult from the sounds of it. So he may be our first true Young Blood! This drop means a trailer is imminent!
Was watching a reaction video to the Predator Badlands trailer, and one of the people reacting said something along the lines of, ‘I don’t care about predator culture, I don’t want to learn a single thing about them. I just want them to be mysterious alien hunters.’
Okay, but isn’t this way of thinking precisely what has been suffocating the franchise for the last decade? We never get anything new or anything interesting because film makers keep sticking to the same old formula in order to keep the predator species ‘mysterious’. Well, I hate to break it to you folks, but an alien species that has appeared in seven films has ceased to be mysterious a long time ago.
So my (safe) bet for Badlands is that the Elder Predator we see going after Dek in the trailer, is his father. The plot details we got the other day mention Dek is trying to prove himself to his father, so his father also being the Clan Elder has way too much drama and angst potential to be ignored.
Side Bar: My second bet is that Elle Fanning’s line “Your hunting something that can’t be killed” is setting up Dek to deliver “If it bleeds, I can kill it.”, double points for me if it’s the only line Dek says in the movie that’s in English.
At the risk of being a broken record, LETS. FUCKING. GO!
YOOO! They’re letting him cook!
