Plenty of time for Dutch's role to be expanded . :P

And reshoots to remove those... undesirable elements from the script. ;D

I hope at least....At any rate, I'm ok with the pushing the release date. As long as they use the time wisely to just make a fun film. I can hold out.

Weather may be a factor in the move of the release date. I live in Seattle area and it been raining here most of the time they've been shooting. Where about 200 miles south of Vancouver. Most set pictures look very wet.

I'd rather they push it back and give it the best chance -- be it longer production, post-production, or less BO competition -- than doggedly stick to a release date.

Seems like the overwhelming consensus is that this delay is a good thing. I have to wonder if they'll be extending the primary shoot since they'll be getting extra post time. I know that would increase the production budget so I'm guessing the primary photography will go as scheduled.

I just don't see a Jason Statham shark movie of a middling book from the '90s being a huge threat in August.
you would be surprised, I read the budget is pretty big I've read 150m (probably wrong) so it must be a pretty big deal? It's got a big following. But hey you never know.

How are you doing it outside of complaining in this forum, exactly?

I wish I could tell you more. But we have a large number of deep-cover operatives involved. You know how it is. We all have a job to do. Now, I'm sure we can respect each other's situation and act responsibly

The studio must be happy with what they've seen to push this back to compete against meg!!

So, nothing. Got it.

Enjoy complaining about a movie for an extra six months.

Chances are they will add some bigger movies to August as 2018 draws closer but slating this at the end of the summer is a bold move and shows some confidence. I haven't seen much of anything on 'Meg' but it sounds like it could either be a fun thrill ride or a total disaster that bombs hard. I thought Eli Roth was supposed to direct it but I guess not.

Lol!!

Thank GOD!. Hopefully it's a script rewrite for the god awful plot leak we had a few months back. They completely went off the rails and failed the distinguish the tenacity of the predator and failed to display his ferocity by "1-upping" him, similar to Predators.

paperhearts

It's not too late to cut back or drop certain things. I'm hoping they just try instead of leaving it as is. 

That and they spend some time with the CG.    I prefer practical effects, especially if they can't hire a good CG company that's familiar with Predator.  (Even great CG companies can screw up a movie if they have no idea what the character is suppose to be)
