    If anyone could organically weave Dutch back into this universe, it’s this guy.

    Unbelievable news!

    What a nice surprise it would be if it were true that Arnold would return as Dutch.

    Is Dutch return what this franchise needs?

    I don't know, but it would be nice to see him back in this series. It's Arnold, after all :)
    But a good script is also important.

    I like Arnold and think that Dutch was his best role and acting, but I’m not sure about this. The Oak is pushing 80 and has had many health issues that have taken their toll on his body and his ability to move. Yes, the character could be written to acknowledge this, or the can try and film around it, but it’s not how I want to see the character. Had this been 10 or 25 years ago I would be much more interested.

    Badlands does look pretty crazy in a good way, the action looks a lot of fun.

    New Predator: Badlands Set Reports Dig Into Further Details

    “Trachtenberg also talked about Gillis’ involvement in the film and his experience with the franchise, helping the movie still stay true to both the Predator and Alien franchises. He didn’t ever want the film to feel “too Star Wars-y” or “too Star Trek.” He pointed out that many of the shapes that compose Star Wars are much more square, whereas Predator has a more rounded approach in its visual language. He compared Dek to the classic character of Conan the Barbarian, saying:

    Another thing I would say is for his behavior and giving him more personality, but it’s still feeling predatory. For whatever reason, there’s always been a link to me with Conan. Tor what, thinking of what their culture is like, but also the way he behaves, is he’s a very terse character, a few words, but they say a lot. And there’s something in the fabric of that world, that’s fantasy, but brutal, pirate-y also, , that’s different than Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones, or Avatar, pick any sci-fi thing. There’s something in the Conan vibe that feels right for when we’re digging into the culture.”


    As a Conan fan I am interested to see how this plays out.
