What Does Kojima Have to Say About Predator: Badlands?
Hideo Kojima wrote a review for Predator: Badlands on his X account, where he had high praise for director Dan Trachtenberg, and before talking about Badlands, he took a recap and talked about how his first Predator film, Prey, was an excellent reimagination of the original formula followed by the franchise for years now. Talking about Predator: Badlands, Kojima said that while the cast did an absolutely incredible job, the elements in the movie that ascended beyond the simple concept of the fear of being hunted gave it a depth that reconciles with the blueprint formula of Japanese Manga. He wrote- He then went on to talk about how Predator: Badlands has taken heavy inspiration from video games in the visual aspect, and marks the dawn of a new era of Hollywood that consists of young filmmakers who are exposed to the global narrative of manga, anime, and gaming. Kojima then expressed his hope that young anime fans who generally avoid live-action movies will give this one a shot, promising that once you start watching it, the movie will have you hooked from the very opening scene. He said- These words of appreciation show that a franchise that was considered irredeemable in live action by a lot of people has made a comeback like no one expected and is leaving a mark on a global scale. Overall, it appears that Dan Trachtenberg will have a lot more work to do in the future, considering how Predator: Badlands has been received.
