Looks like a good update of "the most dangerous game" with a dash of Logan's run a sprinkle of "walking dead" and pinch or "the purge"

It is a blumhouse production so it will make money.

Will watch on cable/streaming

Liberal elite aka the Hollywood and NYC white people aren't brave enough to do this in real life so they are forced to make a fantasy about it.

You sound triggered.


The trailer makes it seem like it is about coastal elites getting their asses handed to them by the people of the heartland.

Looks like a fun movie that will more than make back its 18m budget.

I really wish I could buy in to blumhouse productions.

Not triggered, just can't believe they made a movie about that.

It was originally titled Red State vs Blue State...

Ok. It still looks like a fun movie that will make a 10-20x return on its production costs.

I mean, the red state chick is clearly the hero of the movie, but regardless, it's a silly murder flick cashing in on a ridiculous premise.

Did you get this bent out of shape when the Purge came out with rich people murdering poor people in a similar way?

You think it will make $180-$360 million?

I'm not bent out of shape, I'm just super surprised they are being that blatant about it

Dont be obtuse, this is completely different.....I wasnt a poor person when the purge came out.

That isnt out of range for a blumhouse film.

Get Out and Split are the only two to get anywhere close to that and this movie is not going to be that

Edit: And the new Halloween

But none of the others got all of the free advertising that fox, trump, rush and the other loonies will give this one.

And you are limiting yourself to domestic box office. I could see this being a hit internationally

FEel like I watched nearly the whole movie in that trailer. People were rounded up, hunted, got the upper hand, the hunters beefed up the attack but one got out, against all odds, fought her way to the top organizer, entered her house, and the final battle ensued. Think I know who wins.

It has a twist ending and it was actually happening in Russia

Perhaps you were too stupid to google this film beyond this quote you uncovered. The story is literally going to show one of the hunted turning the tables and hunting/killing the hunters.

That said, this looks like a film for morons to enjoy.

It's the premise of the movie that I'm surprised by.

I'm honestly not even a very political person.

Actually, this is a pretty refreshing twist on the Purge and Most Dangerous Game premise, where the "hunters" are usually portrayed as evil white rich Republicans hunting minorities. Now, they're evil white rich liberals hunting evil middle-class white Republicans....who will end up killing those bleeding heart wusses.

Yeah that is why I dont understand the hand ringing by the op or any of the old bats on 16. It seems like they should view this movie as empowering and any success that it has as being "proof that real Americans are tired of being treated like crimals."

I'd probably hunt a person. Like what if terminally Ill people wanted to be hunted for a large fee that would go to helping their family after their death.

You probably shoot doves on the wire.

When I saw the trailer before "Crawl" I just thought it looked like The Most Dangerous Game. I'm unlikely to see this but I will check out reviews to see if it's worth spending $1.75 at the nearest Redbox for it.

Pretty sure Trump just started tweeting negatively about this movie. What a moron.

A) This movie looks terrible, no matter what side of the isle you're on.

B) As others have stated, from the trailer, it looks like "the elites" are the bad guys and the rural people are the heroes.

C) A political affiliation is not a race.

D) Since when do liberals "like" to call themselves "Elite"?

E) These two tweets are literally doing exactly what he's railing against; inflaming and trying to blame others.

My point is, you're stereotyping. Not "everything" is racist to *all* of the "the left." That's a broad, literally *unfair* generalization. I know and am around plenty of liberals and none of them think like that all.
