Without question, Shane Black’s The Predator is one of 2018's most anticipated films. The director’s decision, however, to form the project as a sequel instead of an outright reboot, isn’t as clear cut. Not only that, but having its release date delayed, twice, and currently undergoing reshoots in Vancouver, some fans now starting to fear the worst - and understandably so.
This weekend might not be that special for most of us, just another forty-eight-hour span spent Netflix-ing, eating, and sleeping, not necessarily in that order. However, for Marvel Studios, by Monday there’s a good chance that the King of Wakanda will also claim the MCU’s domestic box office record.
Earlier this month heralded the release of WB's mildly successful, supergroup-assembling blockbuster Justice League on Blu-ray and DVD. It wasn’t exactly the box office triumph that the DCEU was expecting, and secretly praying for, seeing as the film was rather unexpectedly bounced from the top spot in only its second week by Pixar’s now Academy Award-winning Coco, but it hasn’t been all downhill for the Zack Snyder/Joss Whedon-directed picture, as its home video release recently ripped the sales crown from the clutches of Marvel’s Thor: Ragnarok.

The days are slowly, achingly slowly, falling off the calendar as we ready ourselves for the immeasurably anticipated release of Marvel’s Avengers: Infinity War. Directed by franchise stalwarts Anthony and Joe Russo, the pic is presumptively going to depict the demise of at least one superhero, with the likelihood of more to follow when Avengers 4 is said and done. And, as it turns out, the film’s screenwriters, Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely, had a level of freedom that would unsettle even the toughest of Marvel fanboys.
A couple of days ago, we shared a time-lapse video posted to Instagram by Extremely Wicked, Shocking Evil, and Vile star Zac Efron undergoing his transformation from hunky Hollywood heavyweight to savage serial killer Ted Bundy, and I must say, the end result is quite remarkable. The clip was posted in celebration of the film wrapping production, and while the biopic is still without an official release date, we’ve now got a first look at another of the thriller’s leading men, John Malkovich.
