Predator: Badlands — How It Changes the Predator Franchise

Predator: Badlands didn’t just land as another sequel — it cracked open a much bigger conversation about what the Predator franchise actually is, where it’s been, and where it might be going next. In this episode of Original Geek, we use Badlands as a jumping-off point to explore the entire Predator timeline — from the 1987 original and its slasher-movie roots, through Predator 2, Predators, The Predator, Prey, and the long, messy crossover history with the Alien franchise. Along the way, we dig into how tone, humor, mythology, and even the Predator itself have evolved over the decades. We talk about why Badlands feels different, what it reveals about Yautja culture, why the introduction of synthetics and Weyland-Yutani matters, and how this movie quietly reinforces that Predator and Alien have always shared a universe — even when the films didn’t fully commit to it. The episode also tackles real-world fandom friction: the growing frustration with premium streaming charges, early access pricing, and whether paying extra to watch a movie you already “subscribe” for is the future of genre entertainment or a breaking point for fans. This isn’t a spoiler-heavy breakdown or a surface-level review. It’s a franchise-wide conversation about lore, canon, creative risks, misfires, surprising wins, and why Predator has survived while so many other 80s action icons faded out. If you’re a longtime fan, a casual viewer, or someone trying to figure out whether the Predator franchise still has teeth — this episode connects the dots. #Predator #PredatorBadlands #PredatorFranchise #SciFiMovies #AlienUniverse #GeekPodcast #MovieAnalysis #OriginalGeek
