Predator: Badlands – uh, actually, kill your colonisers
I'd heard a lot of mixed things about Predator: Badlands when it was in cinemas. Enough fanboy butthurt to make me think it was probably worth seeing but also quite a lot of 'meh' from people who really liked Prey, the previous movie in this…

Enough fanboy butthurt to make me think it was probably worth seeing but also quite a lot of 'meh' from people who really liked Prey, the previous movie in this series by the same director, Dan Trachtenberg. There were positive voices but no one loved it like they loved Prey.

I love generation ship sci-fi stories. How exactly does one manage a closed-resource society that can endure generations? What would life be like? Something invariably goes wrong.
Finished reading Hole in the Sky by Peter F Hamilton. More action-thriller than I prefer, but a fun read.
