I'm sure lots of this stuff can be backed by the extended media and that for the fans that are into the extended stuff, the movie works much better. But it just doesn't work for me because from my point of view, the more I know about the Predators (like Aliens) the less interesting they start to be.

On the other hand, I'm not against the Predators forming aliences. I think that kind of worked in the first AvP movie. But in my opinion these aliences would be more interesting if they were fragile, never knowing for how long they will last. But clearly that's not something they wanted to explore.

If you defeat them in a hunt, they will drop basically a mini nuke on you. Also The Killer of Killers now suggests that even if you win and then survive the blast, they can just snatch you again and put you in stasis, presumably for future hunts. So their moral code is questionable at best.

I'd imagine Bob Iger furiously masturbating to the numbers that Roblox or Minecraft are making while thinking how to apply the "user-generated content" model to his own stuff.

I really liked Prey and Killer of Killers, but after Alien Romulus, Alien Earth, and now this, I really think that I need to just stop watching this stuff. So good job, Disney.

The fact that the Predators are evil tribal assholes isn't a bug. It's a feature. That's what makes them fun villains. So forcing a Predator to reflect on his actions and grasp the concept of toxic masculinity is like sending Freddy Kruger to therapy or handing John Matrix a pop gun.

Fuck AI slop.

Yeah, I don't really know anything about sales, but I think the key problem here is that if they have a buyer for one copy, they then order only that one copy and just hope for the best.

And unfortunately when I want to buy a book from the US, there aren't that many other options around.

They said the book arrived from the US without the dust jacket but that they'll order a new copy and send me the dust jacket from that. Which is good for me, but I guess the next person that orders the book from them will again get it without the jacket.

Enbook.cz, though I don't know where do they get their supplies from. I'm gonna contact them today.

Looks amazing (and reminds me I should get back to my DS9 watchthrough).
