Hopefully it’s a quasi-remake of the Badlands directed by Terrence Malick, and Elle plays a young woman who goes on a killing spree with her new lover, a Predator.

I’m honestly hoping this is the premise. After Prey, I just want a series of Predator movies where a Yautja is sent to earth to battle famous warriors from history. Predator vs Cowboys, Predator vs Samurai, Predator vs Knights of the Round Table, etc.

“Hello. It is me, famous human actor Thomas Cruise. From movies such as Top Gun and Mission Possible. Ha ha. Yes. And now that you’ve seen my face for two seconds, I want to tell you about my new movie which is NOT a scam. Ha ha! Yes. Not a scam. To buy tickets for my new movie, go to Target, buy iTunes gift cards and…

hmm.. I am cautiosly optimistic.  Prey was fantastic.  As an aside, Prey should get a theatrical release.

With a name like “Badlands”, I’d assume it’s a Predator Western? All the gunslingers get killed off and the “Farmer’s Daughter” takes it out. 

Possibly this is all “oddball” casting to match the “oddball” screenplay, “oddball” acting and all the “oddball” casting they already did. 

Kevin Feige: “Okay. My team has spent the last three years carefully coming up with an air-tight, ten year plan for Spider-man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This plan will seamlessly integrate characters from both Sony and Marvel Studios’ movies, which I think will be beneficial for both parties.”

A multiverse thing then. An even better plot hole sealant.

Maybe one of them was a Skrull?  Skrulls are a great “get out of plot hole free” card.

It would be fun if this is still Curt Connors but one that never got into science and academia as a profession and therefore kept both of his arms. That or they use the Insomniac origin and he loses an arm to the symbiote.

Okay, two stray observations:

Yeah, I’ve found them to be in the “bad but enjoyable enough” category because of Tom Hardy’s performance and the cool visuals for Venom, et al.

I haven’t enjoyed these movies as movies, but I have enjoyed Tom Hardy’s performance in them quite a bit. I’ll definitely see it, but it’s too bad the films aren’t better.

It’s so exhausting to see practically every rich famous white guy who reaches a certain age adopt these same tired tropes about “wokeism” simply because they amuse themselves with it and assume that everyone will be just as amused. It’s old, it’s unoriginal, and it’s the #1 sign that someone has become out of touch…

The Megan line was particularly lame in song full on lameness. They’re not in the same generation, same social circles, or even the same subgenres. It’s just unprovoked douchery at a woman because that’s what he’s been doing for 25 years and his fanbase of incels eat it up.

The chorus was just... awful. You get the throw back to a recognizable 80's song with the change of lyrics from “I want to reach out and grab ya” to “Imma ‘bout to reach in bag, brah” — <<cringing shudder>> If I were of an appropriate age to use such a term, I might say “so cringe” but because I’m Gen-X (like Eminem…

Ha, that headline came to mind for me as well. What’s funny is that he doesn’t even really say anything outrageous in the song in the first place. Like, what’s of note here: a couple of hacky trans jokes that felt like light jabs at worst, the usual tired celebrity references, and... a participation trophy reference…

I love rap. I even love some Eminem once in awhile.

this guy ain’t been relevant since John Kerry reported for duty at the DNC

Em is overrated and been washed. And this song is hot trash
