The first is one of my favourite popcorn flicks. Soundtrack is ace.

Local Trouble

I liked the first RE because I thought it could still be reconciled with the games at the time.  The sequels killed all hope of that though.

Kailem

Yeah I thought the first one was decent. The second one did have one redeeming feature that made it totally worth watching though:

The sequels would have been better off if they kept to doing their own thing like the first movie did instead of half-heartedly throwing in stuff from the games.

Here's the latest Resident Evil thread ladies & gents, before some people start thinking Skulls might be a Predator/RE crossover.  :laugh:

That's awesome Ace! So now we have the mother's name... Aruka!

I thought Stefany did a nice bit of acting here, all things considered. Nice audition. I did catch on that her dialogue was not exactly the same Mother/Daughter dialogue we heard in the Kee audition, which is interesting.

Very nice find brother! Filming is only two months away now! 👍

The healer vs hunter indeed seem to be a thing in this, could be interesting and used in a nice fitting way for a predator movie. Hope they pull it off.

In the prism of confidence and concerns, while I unfortunately personally lost my faith in Producer John Davis and ADI, Dan Trachtenberg and his vision is what's giving me the most hope that he can be ultra focused, guide the people around him, and deliver something really special to the fans. We need a clear vision and someone who knows exactly what they want. And I'm feeling Dan might be that type of guy to deliver. (fingers crossed)

Writer Patrick Aison is the real wildcard to me though. The man has wrote four singular episodes for four singular different shows. He's produced more shows than he's written. And suddenly he's writing a feature film? So is that concerning? Yep. But there has to be a first, right? Every accomplished screenwriter needs to write their first produced screenplay sometime, so I'm trusting in Dan here.

At least with this film, it appears to be more likely it's a standalone entry than Predators and The Predator, and will likely not be setting up any sequels. 🤞

Patrick Aison has a kinda peculiar resumé, I agree. He's the biggest interrogation I have for this film. Second is the fact that ADI could very well be attached to the project.

QuoteWe've also learned that 20th Century Studios' Predator 5 aka Skulls is said to be wrapping production in Calgary tomorrow after spending a month filming there (could end up shooting elsewhere). Oddly enough, there hasn't been any actual cast announcements concerning the film that is being directed by Dan Trachtenberg (10 Cloverfield Lane) and it's unclear what they were shooting in Alberta this month.

Nah. Too soon. Casting calls officially occurred in February. This looks like that that website took Dan's tweet and extrapolated it to they're already filming versus being in pre-production.

Too many sources including official industry in these threads are pointing to a May 31st shooting date. Even the Calgary Herald three days ago.

"Projects that have been slated for Calgary include Billy the Kid, a western set to start filming in June. The fifth instalment of the Predator feature-film series, which is operating under the working title Skulls, is set to begin filming May 31."

Reminds me of the 'lover vs fighter' trope.  It's a little simplistic, but I can dig it if done well.

I guess I am back to the forum, keeping in touch with Skulls news

Sometimes standalone movies can be great. Fingers crossed for this one.  :)
