Looks badass.

Getting great reviews. It's currently at 91% on Rotten Tomatoes

If you have ever said "How come they don't make movies like (Predator/Aliens/Dredd/Gladiator/Edge of Tomorrow)", go see this movie. This movie needs to make money so that more awesome actions movies get made.

Review quotes:

"It’s big, it’s bold, and it’s packed with gnarly kills—and it truly wants you to feel every bone-crunching moment in your bones. This is the Predator theatrical experience we’ve been waiting for."

"Rest assured, though: even with the softer rating, Badlands remains every bit as violent as the rest of the franchise."

Saw a review today that because all the kills are aliens and synthetics it could be gruesome as long as the blood wasn’t red and still get the PG13 rating.

I mean, how many of us were scarred by this guy in the 80s

I’ll wait for streaming

Then you won't get another Predator movie until 2040, when they reboot it. 

Look what happened with Furiosa/Mad Max - it made some money but not enough. That's it for Mad Max movies. It's over.

Miller is supposedly in talks with HBO to have a limited series for what was going to be the last movie.

The kills in this movie go hard in the paint. I mean really hard.

I'm hoping we get a future Predator movie set during a World War, American Revolutionary War, something like that.

If you haven't seen Prey watch it, native Americans vs predator. Also, Killer of Killers. It's animated which will turn some people off, but it is also worth a watch. Both are on Hulu.

eh, i'll be the dissenter for a change... it was just okay, but it's my fault that i didn't read up on it more.

a bit too disney-fied for my tastes. i realize now i should have expected that based on casting lol. it took me a good hour to get over how UN-Predator-y the general feel of it was...i enjoyed it more once i let go of that. 

the cgi was good and the makeup should earn an oscar-nom, but a lot of it just felt like animation. i did like the art design of both planets...

and during the final Tessa fight with the kalisk was i the only one expecting to hear 'get away from her YOU BITCH!' 😆

I struggled a bit through the first hour or so (it was also during my afternoon slump), but from when the kalisk shows up through the end, it rips.

tell us about this afternoon slump.

I went back to see it in 4DX 3D. I personally love the 4DX and the seats moving and all that. You don't need that for this movie, but I would suggest a 3D showing. It really added to the movie honestly. However you see this movie is up to you, but I felt the 3D version was really cool. Even if you don't want to watch it that way just go see it and enjoy it. You'll have to try really hard to not enjoy this one.

Saw Dune in 4DX and I hated it. Think I’m just going with normal viewing on this one

Really entertaining.  Caught it at the Alamo and forgot how nice theaters can be after going to my ghetto amc so much.  

A little corny, but great action.   Played out like a video game, really.  Agree CGI was really good, did not stand out. 

Can't decide if Elle Fanning is hot or not but she played a good role as well.

I thought it was WY corp coming for the predators at the end, didn't expect "mother".

This Predator, being the runt of the clan, it was like a Rocky movie I think. I kinda enjoyed that aspect as well as the Calise storyline. I can’t wait to see the Calisk in the next movie as well. I do get your take though. If you go in with expectations of how you think a Predator movie will or should go you’ll be disappointed somewhat.
