Lock and load—it’s time for another heat-vision-fuelled episode of Podcast Assemble! Tommy’s diving deep into 'Empire of Silence' by Christopher Ruocchio (lyrical and epic), and Del Toro’s 'Frankenstein' (what you get if Mary Shelley met Gotye). Then it’s onto Predator: Badlands (2025)—because the jungle wasn’t harsh enough, apparently.Timecodes:<ul><li>(00:00) – Intro</li><li>(11:04) – What Have You Been Up To?</li><li>(29:56) – MAIN TOPIC: Predator Badlands (2025)</li><li>(30:47) – Stupid Plot Summary</li><li>(31:14) – Cast & Crew</li><li>(31:34) – Plot</li><li>(34:34) – Who stays human, everyone else is a muppet?</li><li>(42:14) – No Practical Effects?</li><li>(50:24) – Action</li><li>(51:04) – Tones & Themes</li><li>(51:38) – 3 Best & 3 Worst</li><li>(53:45) – Critical Reception</li><li>(54:44) – Better or Worse than Aquaman (2018)?</li><li>(55:31) – ⚠️ SPOILERS START ⚠️</li><li>(1:03:58) – SPOILERS END</li><li>(1:04:04) – Trivia True or False</li><li>(1:07:29) – Wrapping Up</li></ul> Main Topic:Predator: Badlands strips away the jungle, suspense, and fun—and replaces it with generic planet. Generic alien planet. Set in a monster filled dystopia where the Predator must prove itself. This was certainly a movie. It’s a survival thriller that forgets to thrill.Is Predator: Badlands a gritty return to form—or just another sand-blasted scream into the franchise void?
