One of seven world premieres scheduled to take place, it has just been announced that The Predator will open the Film Festival’s “Midnight Madness” event!“This year’s Midnight Madness slate promises another idiosyncratic confluence of established and emerging genre filmmakers,” said Peter Kuplowsky, Midnight Madness Programmer. “To complement some of the buzziest provocations on the festival circuit, I have sought to curate an eccentric array of World Premieres that demonstrate the dexterity of genre cinema as a canvas for both sublime satisfaction and stunning subversion. That includes the section’s two much-anticipated sequels, The Predator and Halloween, each of which boldly and brilliantly builds upon its mythic iconography to thrilling and surprising effect.”The Toronto International Film Festival begins on the 6th of September and runs through until the 16th. The exact date of the premiere and further details are still be announced. Tickets for the festival are currently available for purchase. The Predator will open on September 12th in the UK and then 2 days later on the 14th in the States.Keep checking in with Alien vs. Predator Galaxy for the latest on The Predator!

I guess changes over the course of the production shortened the film, but it's nor a bad or a good thing IMO. We'll just have to see the final movie.

Including credits, we'll probably ending up with 90 minutes.I'm just hungry as hell, this could have been 2 1/2 hours for me, but as long as the movie doesn't feel rushed i'm ok.

Even a really good movie is hard to sit through for that long, personally.Quote from: BigDaddyJohn on Aug 09, 2018, 04:00:09 PMI remember an interview way back where Black said the film will be longer than the previous entries...

We'll just have to see the final movie.Yes, I think if they had kept all the hybrid stuff, certain characters, multiple dogs, etc. it would have probably been the length that Black suggested.

BigDaddyJohnAug 09, 2018, 05:04:53 PM Reply #11 on: Aug 09, 2018, 05:04:53 PM Q Quote Now that i think of it, i would've gone with 10 more minutes, probably better for character development/dialogue, which is a Shane Black strength obviously, but we'll see... A few more minutes in terms of a movie pacing can be crucial.
