This week on The First Run, Chris and Matt delve back into the Predator-verse! On this adventure, we eschew the Predator trope of the hunter villain, for a story about a honor, redemption, and cliche. Then Yorgos Lanthimos, Emma Stone, and America’s Sweet heart, Jesse Plemons reunite for the latest off-center cinematic experience with Bugonia!
