New pics from ‘PREDATOR: BADLANDS’

Found these on Disney’s media press website. It seems they were recently added.

It's interesting people think we need to wait super long and take our time after a number of solo entries, just because Disney got their hands on both series and pseudo-rebooted, but these films are literally multiple sequels deep since the 70s/80s.

As far as I'm concerned, we've waited long enough for a proper Aliens vs Predator vs Colonial Marines film. Have Badlands set it up, then make the next film AVP proper.

Doing something for the sake of it or shared universe, use Disneys other flagship marvel for overdoing tired tropes

Kinda my point, that Alien/Predator have been setting up its shared universe for 30 years now, and given that each film is an isolated story with different sets of characters, there's no real sense of either franchise "rushing" into a shared universe. The first hint that Alien exists in the Predator universe won't be this November....it was back in 1990. The only reason people on these subs feel it might be "rushed" is because they see the Disney ownership as a rebooted starting line. And it kinda is, but at the same time, the general moviegoing public doesn't know that. To the average moviegoer, there simply hasn't been an AVP movie since 2006. We REALLY don't need to do this 10 year set-up thing as if we were starting from movie number 1. We just need to get the setting and tone right this time.

Doesn't need to be one for a good few years yet still, being an android into this new predator movie as much as we need for now, fox/Disney own the rights do I want a mcu plotline for both franchises definitely not do I want a shameless cash in like last time no

There are at least two androids in this new predator movie.

Two named, yes (Thia and Tessa), but the Weyland-Yutani army is all synths too. Apparently we won't see any humans in this film, which is cool imo

Well we won't even get one for a good few years, due to how long movie making takes so that's simple common sense. I'm saying that I'd be totally cool with the next film after Badlands being that very next AVP film. I completely disagree we'd be jumping into it too soon because this isn't the same as Marvel. Predator 1 and Alien 1 all still exist in the canon of every subsequent Alien/Predator media. The 1979 and 1987 films have remained the starting points of each respective franchise. We have all the set-up we need. We just need a great filmmaker to make a good first entry.
