@jordanscollected I definitely appreciated Bugonia and wasn’t one of those “wish I had those 2 hours of my life back” but a hard no on a second viewing. And a great shout out to “bring her back” totally falls in line with; very good watch/very much do not ever need to see again (the self mutilation scenes were brutal)

Rest in peace Rob Reiner and Michelle Singer. What an unbelievable tragedy.

Watched 2 brain dead movies this snowy weekend. 1 of which was the perfect escape and the other obnoxious.
Predator Badlands = perfect escape - you more or less know what your going into with Predator but for me easily the best installment since the OG. If a fan and considering giving it a go, do it.
Running Man = obnoxious - ironically, another Swartzernagger (not going to be bothered to look up the spelling) original; irritating cast (w exception to Michael Cera) and about what you’d expect in terms of writing from a Hollywood reboot.

Red One - utter shite......My only excuse for watching it to the end (though no idea what happened, I was so distracted) was that I have had a bad dose of man flu, so was flat out on the sofa and could not be bothered to find the remote....

@Matt Prey & Killer of Killers were great, Alien Earth had a fantastic 1st episode and then it went downhill from there in my opinion. I'm a huge fan of everything Alien and Predator but lately they are such huge disappointments. I recommend reading The Complete Aliens Omnibus, hope they turn that into a movie/tv show eventually.

@Matt I enjoyed this movie alot and I’ve always been a huge Alien over predator fan. This movie definitely increased my liking of the predator franchise. I’m excited to see where they take this.

@Matt dude it was goodgood. Movie of the year for me. Just watched it, beautifully engaging.
Guillermo did it as it should be done . While watching, I saw so many Death Stranding winks. I hadn’t realized how much influence he had on Hideo games, but the connection became so much clearer seeing this.
The opening sequence is the shit

I've always been a huge Predator/Aliens fan and just recently binged a marathon on all of them. I really can't say i like one more than the other, but there are def strong and weak points. They've never remotely ruined it though....not like Terminator. I still have yet to watch Killer of Killers or Alien Earth, but I'm not really about turning film franchises into a series. I willl watch em, but i think they'll be judged differently.
It seems to be popular to hate on Prometheus and Covenant, but I love em. Also Romulus was surprisingly good. Sometimes I think Predator 2 is the worst of all, then i watch it again and change my mind. I think Requiem is the worst Predator movie, but then i remember its a mashup, not a true Predator movie, and i like it again.

I’m never very up to date with films but I finally got round to watching Godland (Volaða land / Vanskabte Land) and I imagine it would go down well in these parts. It’s slow and bleak and beautiful. Not sure if I want to visit Iceland after watching it but the cinematography is stunning.
For UK people it’s currently available on iPlayer.
pretty meh
