Randomly thinking about that scene in “Halloween 4” when Michael inflated and floated away.

A few days ago, I threw out my back, so I wasn’t sure I’d make it through to the end watching a movie. But armed with my secret weapon—an inflatable lumbar pillow into the chair—I watched “Predator: Badlands.” A back-friendly 107 minutes! And it was great! I’m sure some long-time fans will say, “This isn’t Predator!” I, too, love John McTiernan’s Predator (1987). But director Dan Trachtenberg already pulled off a brilliant reimagining of the original style with “Prey,” successfully completing that mission. “Predator: Badlands”marks his next phase. It builds on the animated film, “Predator: Killer of Killers.” This is a character-driven movie about the Predator “Dek” and his partner “Thia” (Elle is, as always, adorable). Rather than a tale of “terror of being hunted,” it’s a classic, comedic action film that depicts the “friendship” born in the midst of the hunt. “Failure of the weak, isolation, journey, training, encounter, rebellion, clash, comradeship, betrayal, redemption, reconciliation, unity, revenge, growth, choice, family—and a new threat.” These elements form the very blueprint of mainstream Japanese manga storytelling, typified by “Weekly Shonen Jump.” The film also takes heavy visual inspiration from video games. It represents a new direction for Hollywood entertainment led by a new generation of filmmakers who have inherited the global ‘memes’ of manga, anime, and gaming culture. I especially hope young anime fans who usually steer clear of live-action Western films will give this one a try. Even with Dek’s “ugly” face, you’ll find yourself emotionally invested from the opening scene. You’ll definitely get hooked.

I think they’re running out of react content

I normally don't engage with you people (it saves me the headache).... but even the original was a critique of hypermasculine, macho bullshit. Forcing the male action hero trope of the 80s to fill the role of the final girl and defeat the monster with wits rather than brawn.

Happy Saturday to everyone that used to (or still uses!) GameFAQS.

Just got out of a 35mm print of Gremlins 2. Always nice to be reminded that perfect, beautiful things in this world do in fact exist. Spielberg if you try to make one of these without Joe Dante or Rick Baker it will be arranged that you receive a copy of the tape from The Ring.

You dumb bitches posted his dead body on a gurney for some fucking play don’t rebrand now

Leave him alone you wretched ghouls.

An irremovable stain on an otherwise great short that must never be repeated. Keep generative AI slop out of Godzilla.

“Primal Scream” - Mötley Crüe The song was born from a late-night jam in the studio. Nikki Sixx described it as “the sound of us clawing our way back from hell.” The title comes from primal scream therapy-a real psychological method.
