Hey y’all. Sandy, your Witchqueen of Darkness here. If you know me in my daily life, or you have been following my film reviews and criticism for awhile, you may know already that I’ve often sung the praises of Shane Black, director of two films I love Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and The Nice Guys and writer for many more. I’ve watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang probably thirty times, no exaggeration. I can quote that whole movie with music queues and sound effects and facial expressions. I fucking LOVE that movie, you know? It’s in my top ten of all time. So you can imagine: I was really excited for his Predator movie. I’ve been following the production since it was announced last year. I hounded Rosalie to give me the screener when it came up. There was this incredible cast lined up! I was stoked. But then something happened.
