Glad this thread got tidied up faster than I could hit "report".

What's did I miss? The usual "woke" crap?

With an added dose of bringing up trans stuff for no reason.

If anyone wants to hear me gush about the news, I made a little video. I may also have shown a little tease of something I have from ROMULUS. Very tease. Much Excite.

At 2:21? The thing that looks like Big Chap with a spiky head next to the blurred plaque?

That is a Super7 figure. But the blurred thing on the other hand...

Yeah I thought the blurred thing was the thing, just wanted to make sure I described the scene.

That bit with RidgeTop was cute.

If production is to start soon, within this year. That means that so much behind the scenes must already be done. Predator design, filming locations, unannounced casting.

Perhaps it won't be long after till we see what this Predator looks like.

@The Shuriken

Do you suppose the creature effects gig will either go to atom Woodruff jr or Alec Gillis effects sconce there partnership has separated, or could it go to Legacy Effects formally Stan Winston studios, depends who's schedule is clear, can meet the requirements of the budget. Hope they keep what works, learn from mistakes that were made and improve. Hopefully there's again of practical effects and cgi.

looking forward to the future setting where the predators have mastered autism

I've heard things are shooting tests very soon. As in the next month or so.
Meaning production has already been well under way.

Was this movie seemingly unaffected by the writers and actors strike? It had to be in pre-production by that time, and the strikes delayed and pushed back a lot of movies.

Yet this one seems full speed ahead.

[Mike’s Monsters]

No idea. Could have been written before the strikes. I'd noticed Dan and Dane both have visited Studio Gillis in the last few months. So I'm putting two and two together and assuming things have been going on for a while. But knowing they've got some tests coming up tells me they are a lot further along than we probably thought initially.

Would love to see something come out of Dane Hallett's desire to get on Badlands last year.

Always love dropping a little cute @RidgeTop moment here and there.

[Nightmare Asylum]

Also cute was the statement that some day, we'll hear more about Blomkamp's project.

I was never particuarly excited about that movie itself, but I am VERY excited to learn as much as I can about what it was going to be.
