Part 8/10:
One of the notable insights from the weekend’s data is the demographic breakdown. The PG-13 rating and marketing strategy aimed at attracting a broader audience did not significantly boost younger viewers, as only 5% of the audience was between 13 and 17. Conversely, older male demographics continue to be the mainstay, aligning with the franchise's traditional fan base.
Interestingly, some viewers reacted negatively to narrative choices that depict the Predator as a weaker, less imposing character—casting him as a "runt" of his tribe and involving a love story subplot with a robot. These creative decisions may have further alienated core fans and older audiences who expect a more traditional, action-packed portrayal.
