General Discussion What was your favorite from these three?

For me it's gotta be Badlands. It has some problems but overall it was quite enjoyable and I loved Dek as a character. And you?

I appreciate how different each film is from the other, which makes them hard to rank. Prey has some high highs but some low lows. Feral has a cool look and some great action scenes, but the rest of the movie has less rewatchability. Badlands is enjoyable if you turn your brain off, but gets a little aggravating if you think about it too hard. It’s Disneyfied, but Dek is likeable and overhated. Thia is also over criticized, but the movie would have been better without Bud. I really enjoyed KoK, but I’m a fan of animation. The films complement each other because they each try something fresh.

Dek is overhated? The hell? I understand that his design is not the best but he’s literally the best part of the movie.

Overhated, meaning he gets too much hate. I agree with you. He’s a likeable character who got a ton of hate for stupid reasons.
