Predator Badlands should’ve been the ninth-installment cash-grab we all politely ignore… but somehow Dan Trachtenberg cooked. In this week’s Thumb War, Rachel and Jason dive into the surprisingly emotional new Predator movie that mixes Klingon-like family drama, Alien-universe corporate stupidity, exploding caterpillars, razor grass, and the most adorable digital murder-gremlin since Grogu.
We get into:
Predator sibling beef
Elle Fanning playing two androids (one sweet, one corporate demon)
Found-family wolf-pack metaphors
The baby callous creature who is basically Hazel in CGI form
Weyland-Yutani being idiots… again
And the controversial PG-13 “Disney-fication” of Predator
This one is shockingly heartfelt, visually bonkers, and absolutely primed for a sequel.
Huge thumbs up. Go see it in a theater.
Full Spoilers.
