Short # 75 - Predator: Badlands Film Review

Wherein Justice and Andy hunt down the impact of Predator: Badlands, the newest entry in the Predator franchise from Dan Trachtenberg. As the first film in the franchise to feature the Predator as the protagonist, how does it shift the narrative direction for the franchise for the future? And as the first PG-13 film in the franchise, does it imply a softening or Disneyfication for the films foing forward? Are we about to see plush Predator toys? Are we about to see Yautja halloween costumes for young children? We understand the tensions between a monster film and the need to market it, but at what cost?
