#183 – The Predator and The Value of Simple Story

September 20, 2018Mikey Fissel Action, podcast, RWT, Sci-Fi0

On this episode of the Reel World Theology Podcast:

We talk about a movie that we were all much more excited for before actually seeing it. Predator has become an all-time classic action movie but the movies that have come after have never really lived up to it, including Shane Black’s latest The Predator. We talk about what was right about the original and what went wrong in the latest installment along with the difficulty of following up on a beloved original. This episode sponsored by Patron supporters Hunter and Stephie Van Wagenen! Thanks!
