Predator: Badlands is incredibly exciting, but one of the upcoming movie's most exciting elements comes from the fact that it is fixing a major mistake that hurt Prey. The Predator franchise has done a major course correction in recent years, with Prey kicking off a modern era of exciting sequels for the decades-old alien franchise. Prey took the classic alien monster and put it in the Great Plains of the 1700s, showing the potential that Predators had with all kinds of interesting environments. Predator: Badlands is continuing this trend, but its release proves that it will be even grander.
