Not one person gave a bad review. Yet every positive post for the movie is getting the same amount of downvotes. Obvious who it is.
that shite means nothing. Keep on downvoting.
But I do suggest people see it and not just listen to the angry youtubers who hate almost everything.

I love how you post then upvpte your post right away.
Dishonest? For liking the movie?
What was said that was untrue in this thread?
100% what i pointed out was true.
It doesn't matter. I think people should give the movie a chance but I mainly want to discuss it with my peers I could care less that some who feed off of YouTube rage didn't like it. A ton of posters in this thread I respect did like it.
But of course you'll bring your normal tardness to the thread. Calling everyone names. Calling people liars and likely won't even see the movie.

You mean the way you do? Nah I don’t do that and I don’t spam your posts on every board with downvotes like a child throwing a tantrum the way you do either. We are nothing alike, everything you accuse others of you do like you’ve done in this thread. And no you don’t “just want to discuss the movie”, you posted a video you claim people you hate watched when they didn’t then you created straw men, unprovoked, to preemptively attack anyone who may not have the same opinion you have. You’re a fricking clown lmao

Again your here bitching about yet another movie your not going to watch.
Spam downvotes? Lol. Votes are dumb. But i notice your post have one vote instantly.
I'm not gong to say i never downvote you. Your a shite poster and most of your opinions suck. Strawman? You, sek and Proximo often dislike movies and media based on 3rd party opinions. Call it lies or syrawman or whatever. Of course I came across a bad review from Critical Drinker. I think his opinion is wrong.
I actually have been interested in this movie for months. While you have made negative comments on it without seeing it. What else is new?

Fun movie.

The eel though. C'mon, how did he train it to do what he wanted?

Interesting that this movie didn't have a single human in it.

It blows my mind that the 1987 Predator looks far superior—not just better than the 2025 version, but worlds ahead—especially when we’re talking about the actual appearance of the Predator himself.

If you want a cute, buddy-movie take on Predator, this one’s for you.
If you want an actual Predator movie, this ain’t it.

They even tossed in little Disney-style alien mascots—pure merch bait for the clinically retarded consumer addicted masses.

Once again, Disney guts a legendary franchise in a soulless cash grab—
and from the looks of it, they’re about to lose a pile of money doing it.

If there are men in here who love the original as much as I do, and they enjoyed this one— at some point between 1987 and 2025 you had your balls chopped off

Looks like the next Predator movie will be the return of Dutch. Arnold Schwarzennegger has met with Dan Tactenburg about returning as Dutch.
We could see a sequel to every Predator all tied in.

SATURDAY PM UPDATE: Dan Trachtenberg’s Predator: Badlands is now opening to $39M+ — a record domestic debut for the 20th Century Studios’ 38-year-old Predator franchise.

This comes after a great hold on Saturday of $14M, a mere -10% dip from Friday/previews of $15.6M. Predator: Badlands outstrips the previous series record held by Alien vs. Predator ($38.2M) which was a mid-August 2004 theatrical release. 





Actually like Like its the best opening Predator movie and has the highest critical rating.

Not everyone will like it and that is fine. But if you look at every Predator movie many weren't that good.

I thought it was great and expanded the Predator world.

I feel like they can connect P1 & P2, Predators (the one on the other planet) Prey, the cartoon and the new one.

AvP1 - ?? not sure if the movie fits but the story line kind of does with the Welan industries.

Leave out AvP 2 and the predator.

Heading into the weekend, Disney and 20th Century’s “Predator: Badlands” was aiming for $25 million to $30 million to start. However, positive reviews and great word-of-mouth, including an “A-” grade on CinemaScore exit polls, helped the newest “Predator” crush initial expectations.


Looks like word of mouth is helping it out. Its beating expectations which is good for the franchise.

I can see them going multiple routes. Go back to the Jungle hunter /city hunter story. Do an alien crossover. Continue Dek's story.


A feudal Japan Predator would be cool. Dutch coming back would be awesome. But I'm not a fan of the Killer of Killer ending. The idea that the final reward four killing a predator is being stored in a warehouse for future gladiator matches is a a tough angle.

$210. It's made 80 as of today. That number will be higher by Monday. It was projected to open to $25m domestic and it made $40m. Word of mouth is strong.
