It's true, all the rest look like costumes, let's see what the future holds.

Fingers crossed 🤞!

I'd say AvP-R was bad film in existing lore, but The Predator is bad film that throws existing lore out of the window. Saying which is worse is hard job.

They're all bad for different reasons, but the main problem is the creature design in all versions, one could say the
Wolf was less crappy but even with this poor lighting and wrong colour grading, its skin looked like cheap rubber to me.
The predators created by Winston studio still look like genuine aliens, to these days, the quality decreased so much that you could tell that they look even more genuine today.Their mannerism,thanks to Kevin, was also key, sometimes its just very small details such as when the jungle hunter pushed his buttons without the need to watch them,it is so cool.
Maybe the staff will push them to get a predator based on the Winston style, they can use this style and still make something  personal, the city hunter was totally that, as the lost preds or the Elder.It can be done that way and please everyone.Show us that you take this movie seriously, now is the time to get back to the roots, for real this time.
There are fans who build better pred suits than what we've seen since 2004 in their garage.No excuse.

Thank you both. I probably didn't explain myself well enough, but I was less trying to gauge the release date and more when the studio might finally make an official announcement for a streamed movie that is being worked on (so we can potentially apply that to Skulls.)

Perhaps this is a good indicator, a Hulu movie called "No Exit" was just officially acknowledged by 20th Century Studios & Hulu the day filming was completed. I couldn't find anything on their official twitter accounts that pre-date these tweets, so people wondering when something official might be posted about Skulls... perhaps an announcement might come at the end of filming in August.

Do you recall when the first official announcement or first official media was released by Netflix for Army of the Dead? (Not casting announcements from trade reporters, but something official)

The film had been floating around for years. Netflix acquired the rights in Jan 2019. Casting soon after then think they started filming mid to late 2019.

Netflix didn't reveal a release date until early 2021.

Hmm. In regards to an official announcement of filming, let's say what Marc Toberoff said about Skulls being distributed through Hulu is 100% literal and there is no traditional theatrical release - just streaming. So what's the usual timeline, the precedent for releasing or announcing something official for a Hulu feature film in the works... an exclusive pre-pandemic streaming movie?  Does anyone know of any examples? I don't know about anyone else, but following a direct-to-streaming movie is a first for me (if that even turns out to be the case). So I have no personal history to draw from.

I remember when Old Guard was announced for Netflix back in February of 2019. Shooting started around June of that year, then was released on Netflix July of 2020. I think the timeframe for filming into release on streaming is pretty quick. So maybe we could be looking at a July/August release for Skulls next year?

So still nothing...not even anything unofficial from filming? 😅

I mean there are IG stories of cast members including Kyle Strauts driving out to what looks like locations. 

I have a feeling we might have basically nothing though similar to Doctor Strange 2.

**Here is Kyle at his trailer



I guess that's something...😅

The only streaming film that I followed was Army of the Dead. That was announced in 2019, filmed in 2019/20 and released by Netflix this year. It did have a big budget so naturally would take longer to finish.

They're both bad in such distinct ways I don't think there's a point in trying to determine worse. They're equally awful but for different reasons for me.

Yep.  That's honestly the jist of it right there.

Very good point and I second that.

I dread the thought that in a year from now we're adding Skulls to that What's Worse film pool. Please make a good film Dan! I'm begging ya!

You can ignore a bad event in existing lore if its lame, as AVPR ends up being inconsequential to both series in the end. However an event that not only throws out existing lore out the window, turns against itself to how it begins is something much worse, but also sets the tone for future events in the film that weakens the series. How can you go off in future films taking place in modern times with the Predator Killer, Predators going after kids, and incoming invasion of Earth is beyond me. 

Indeed.
