Will this be released in the future, or will it be canceled forever?

But somehow The Purge was perfectly acceptable, 5 fucking times even, with a TV show to boot.

The hell.

Isn't the premise just that rich people hunt other people for sport/entertainment?

It's such a common trope in sci-fi I don't know why people would be upset about it.

There's news going around that it's about rich people hunting down MAGAmericans.

That sucks. The preview made it look good.

I also liked that the protagonist was a little top heavy. Most modern movies tend to shy away from women with that kind of figure or cover them up in oversized clothing.

I'm sure there would've been some kind of twist in the end where the rich elite were revealed to actually be Trump's buddies in a Republicans will blindly follow Republican leaders regardless of how much they're hurt by them kind of commentary.

It was poorly timed. Bad idea to be making a movie like this soon after two mass shootings in the same day.

By that logic violent movies should never be made because there's like a mass shooting every week.

I mean we got a movie about the hypothetical assassination of Bush Jr during the peak of the War on Terror.

Idk how this is a much worse concept lol

Sounds like a pretty dumb movie concept anyway, the billionares would be paying the maga people to do the hunting, not actually hunting them
