J.D.G. Amateur ParapsychologistPredator: Badlands NewsThe Broken Tusk Story Giveaway: Win Aliens vs. Predator Omnibus Vol. 1!

My favorite moment from any Predator film, was originally Scar and Alex teaming up in AVP, now though, I'd say Naru's final fight against the Feral Yautja, and the Grendel King's tournament, are probably my favorite moments ever!!!

I'm so excited that we're finally getting a Yautja protagonist in Badlands, and Dan has done such an amazing job exploring the themes and history of each setting so far, that seeing his approach to Weyland-Yutani has me really excited!!

I have seen every predator movies multiple times and my favorite moment is from predator 2, when Harrigan and the city hunter finally fought each other, to the pursuit after the train, the fight in the meat reserve and the rooftop, and the final battle in the ship. I always find it so cool and well done.

For the upcoming movie predator badlands, i am obviously very excited and curious to watch and learn about the yautja’s culture and lore, as i am a big fan and have collecting every bit of information about it (novels, comics, interviews, etc), and also the interactions between dek and the synthetic.

Im a Huge Predator fan. One of my favorite moments was in "Predators" when it had introduced a sub species of predators. The falconer was my favorite. I'm most looking forward to no humans being in the movie and actually exploring the predator lore. The livelihood on how they operate on a big screen and not just in comics. Going from a unblooded young blood to a full fledge hunter.

What I’m most looking forward to in Predator: Badlands is seeing the Predator take on the role of the protagonist. It’s a refreshing change of perspective that allows the audience to experience the story through the eyes of the hunter rather than the hunted. I’m excited to see how the narrative explores the Predator’s code of honor, instincts, and culture while still delivering the intense action and atmosphere the franchise is known for

My favorite moment from the Predator films comes from Predator 2, even though it’s probably my least favorite installment overall. I’ve always been fascinated by the scene that follows the battle between City Hunter and Harrigan, where the Predator retreats to a bathroom and uses the materials there to treat its wounds. I’m not entirely sure why, but that moment has always stood out to me and brings me joy  haha

I don't see the point in making such elaborate props for the human scenes when there will probably be barely any scenes that show them. GxK was too monster focused and Legacy of Monsters had too few scenes with monsters in it. Let's find a happy middle ground.

Another thing I noticed, I think there might be Working Joe/Davis 01, white skin type, Synths in the movie too. Not just the indistinguishable kind that look fully human. At 1:33 in the trailer, Bud rips what looks to be a white skin Synth apart.

Oh, something people have been speculating is that Bud is the baby of that huge spikey monster Dek fights in the trailer.

I also am very hyped, it's gonna be different but I'm more accepting of this kind of different than I am of the different we got in Alien: Earth. Not sure how I feel about the Predator talking yet... that will be the biggest adjustment for me.

ChrisAlien: Earth ForumFinal Verdict: What Alien fans thought of Alien: Earth Season 1

I stopped caring after the 5th episode, only watched for Kirsh after that.

Episode 5 was definitely the best of the series and it was hard to keep that momentum. Was a very soft finale by comparison.

It seems like the main android has too much of a role, so that's not very interesting to me.

It says that the video is private so I can't watch it. I think that Alien 3 is fine the way it is

Neomorph Alien Earth Season 2 NewsAlien: Earth timeline confusion: Noah Hawley talks connecting the series to ALIENS as well!

@Chris that's interesting! I'd love to meet Ridley Scott and James Cameron, two of my favorite directors. 

For sure, sincere passion to the work usually really shows. I've certainly always had the impression based on countless interviews that Ridley and James indeed come across as a bit egotistical, particularly James who loves to brag about what he's achieved in many interviews. 

This is however not necessarily a bad thing (but rather a sign of confidence as you pointed out) and neither is the fact they're demanding. Actually, I'd argue that a grand vision and a demanding and perfectionistic approach coupled with education, knowledge and talent can make for a fantastic product.

On the contrary, I certainly felt like Rian and JJ Abrams didn't care about directing SW, not mention Noah Hawley's "take" on Alien.

I think the issue is lack of passion. If you take the job cause it's just another job, it won't be special. At least Ridley Scott and James Cameron attaches their egos to the projects they create. Some think they're pretentious but honestly, I think that level of confidence and perceived ownership leads to better productions. 

I've met Ridley Scott in person and got to chat with him at the Covenant premiere back in 2017. He might night consider some details as deeply as us fans do but he's serious about the projects he makes and seems to not be influenced much. He was influenced to change direction with Covenant and that flopped compared to his truly passionate endeavor which was Prometheus.

The moment Noah Hawley said he's always seen the Xenomorph as more like a bug and wanted it to mimic a cockroach in the series I knew, this guy ain't passionate about Alien. He's just another guy doing another job.

XenotarisAlien: Earth ForumWould you rather work for Weyland-Yutani or Prodigy Corp?

Weyland-Yutani Corporation. As long as your not in their way of acquiring a xenomorph I think you'll be fine.

​Prodigy on the other hand, no thanks. Between your boss being a manchild and having to work with children in adult android bodies that could kill you because you didn't believe their pregnant, I'll take my chances with Weyland-Yutani.

I don't know what happens to directors once thet make films or series under Disney. I mean, Noah Hawley did Fargo and Legion previously after all, then he does Alien Earth and you ask yourself wtf happened? 

Then there's Rian Johnson who made Looper, a phenomenal sci-fi film. He directs the last Jedi for Disney which is a considerably worse film.

As a final example we have J.J Abrams who made Mission Impossible 3, Star Trek (remake) and Super 8. Hardly masterpieces but generally considered quite good. What happened? He made SW episode 7 and 9, with the former being a mediocre rehash of episode 4 while the latter is pure trash.

What said directors Disney works respectively have in common is horrible writing, which leads me to believe that Disney- through too much involvement perhaps, negatively affects otherwise good directors job and maybe even the writers.
