Predator: Badlands (4K+2D Blu-ray SteelBook) [UK]
- Thread starter Vincent_vega84
- Start date
4 things Disney have done right with previously existing IPs are those 4 examples right there. They really sorted those franchises out and was genuinely shocked the route they were taking Predator and Alien. Absolutely loved Prey and Romulus. Killer of Killers was everything I wanted to see in the Predator world, albeit animated and would prefer live action WW2 and feudal Japan stories but the animated film turned out pretty perfect. And I had high hopes for Alien Earth due to Noah Hawley but unfortunately he absolutely obliterated the story and gave nothing but stupid idea after idea.
So I let that one slip and more looking forward to Romulus 2 but I’m in 2 minds with this one. Parts of it I enjoyed and parts annoyed the f**k out of me. I was interested in seeing the Predator as the protagonist and they pulled it off but only by making it more for kids and Disney-fying that world. Which will now become a Star Wars thing. And that’s fine but that’s not what the originals and Prey was like. I do need to see this again though to decide how I feel about it
The first Omen was excellent by the way. That went right under the radar too. Great prequel
Expired today. They’ll issue a new one over the next week or 2
It’s all fixed now. Same RC code and fixed the free shipping issue
In another reply to that Insta post Matt confirms they'd be looking to use the SDCC artwork for a future steel which is this one below (I got a few of these prints when I saw the film at the cinema)
Would fit the Romulus steel nicely if they keep the white boarder

Agreed. and would be a huge upgrade on the current steelbook. I'm definitely not a fan of the wrap around images.
the first of the 'episodes' in Killer of Killers is set during the Viking Age, fyi.
from what you are wanting to see, i strongly recommend you catch Killer of Killers, it pretty much answers your post!i have still not seen Badlands, but both Prey and especially Killer of Killers, both also by Trachtenburg, advanced the earlier Predator lore (and even explicitly included some) while also doing something different. and neither could be said to have been made more kid-friendly by Disney. i also liked his 10 Cloverfield Lane, so am expecting to like Badlands.
but i note the comments above about the possible change of tone.all that said, the Ferguson art is clearly miles better!
Would be funny if Disney slap him on the wrist for talking about another steelbook design later down the line before the first release is out and Is cancelled because of that. Fingers crossed that don’t happen but he’s being quite ballsy speaking like this when Disney famously like to keep all this quiet and behind the scenes. And if this don’t sell too well what makes people think they’ll release a variant?
Anywho, I hope he has his art on a steel pretty damn soon…

Weyland Yutani logo on the spine of the standard edition has me thinking they are coming up with some kind of 'Weyland-Yutani verse' instead of going with AvP to combine the 2 franchises together (Alien/Predator). Probably just overthinking it though..
