Manager of my local vue cinema (uk) said he hasn't seen a single screening even hit 40% capacity. I'm unsure if it'll even make  its budget back on cinema release. May do well on blu Ray ect

Yeah, I went to my Cineworld on Friday night expecting it to be packed and there wasn't many people in at all.

honestly if i was fox right now i think i would pull a Annihilation and sell it to netflix.
i think that way fox could make more money on the predator than continue the cinema run.

Fugitive that would be the best thing for this franchise, fox have ran this thing into the ground, a new studio is needed at this point , with a new vision etc. amazon or netflix would be ideal. The Predator tv series, would be interesting imo. you could try out lots of different ideas, without having to worry as much about box office performance. it might be the breath of fresh air the franchise needs.

Classic overestimation of fans.

Sad it's not doing well.
But it was 100% expected. 
It was to be direct to video/streaming in the first place. 
Fox gambled.

Interesting idea.

It wouldn't happen with Disney's buy out of Fox but I'd like to see someone like Gunn reboot the franchise.

With Disney's business model to only produce family friendly movies I can see them letting it leave the studio. Unless they do decide to use the end scene of a jumping off point & take it to a MCU type level (rolls eyes)

to be fair i think that would do more damage with all the gunn pedo stuff.

we should make a petition for amazon or netflix to make a t.v series about dutch. that way you are not remaking the original, and creating a dynamic story that could go for a few series. I think it could really work , in the right hands.
