Badlands’ Simply Feasted on Its Comedian-Con Viewers

After the brand new Predator: Badlands trailer Fox released earlier this week, a Corridor H panel at San Diego Comedian-Con appeared pointless.

To make up for the loss, the brother suggests he picks a harmful prey out within the universe and convey it house. Dek chooses an unkillable evil that’s harmful; even their father is fearful of it. “That’s the one,” Dek says, understanding that if he doesn’t succeed, he’ll die.

Their father arrives, and Dek is anxious to inform him about his choice. The daddy laughs; he has no confidence in his son, and actually had informed the brother to kill him. Simply as that’s about to occur, the brother frees Dek and locks him of their spaceship… at which level the daddy murders the brother for disobeying. He then shoots Dek off, in all probability to his doom. Or is it?

Oh, and that is all subtitled in Yautja, the native languge of the Predator.
