>The producer Jason Blum, recycling his own The Purge films, in which ultra-white country-club jerks backed by Tea-party-type evangelicals go on killing sprees to hunt down struggling Americans and people of color, has given the formula a little tweak. In his new film, originally entitled “Red State vs. Blue State,” the rich hunters are private-jet-loving Davos globalists who hate the president and are out to kill “deplorables.” The title proved a bit too interesting, so it was toned down to The Hunt. TV spots and trailers showed roaming gangs of posh urban TED-talk goers heading out on safari to shoot members of Trump-voting blocs. “The idea seemed crazy,” one panicky Hollywood exec told The Hollywood Reporter.
>For once, a genre movie was built around an anti-progressive premise. The Hunt, which was due for release on September 27, at least sounded contrarian. But our film-critic-in-chief got it cancelled. President Trump doesn’t have the most finely tuned irony gauge; he seemed unable to understand that the globalists in the film are plainly the bad guys and that the trailer was satirizing rather than saluting the hunters it portrays. We weren’t meant to see events from their point of view, but were to put ourselves in Deplorable shoes. For once, a major Hollywood film studio was about to release a movie sympathetic to Trump voters.
>cancel one of the few movies that show progressives and globalists as monsters
I never even heard of the purge. That sounds like it should have had just as much backlash against it.
Eli Scott
also this level of gaslighting on the part of this production company is just comically sad at this point. not a single fucking person believes the guy who made this film is "pro trump" or that it was a "pro trump" film
James Perry
This is 100% a marketing stunt. No way this movie isn’t ultimately released. You are either a retard or a shill.
Ryder Green
How about this shit is degenerate regardless and we'd be better off without it until we gain some sense as a societal whole
Wyatt Lee
Not when it's muh ebil white men killing POS.

Trump’s angle is that promoting or normalizing political violence is bad, which is the norm for Trump because he’s a staunch Unionist. Trump thinks his proprietary blend of populism, civic nationalism, anti-globalism and implicit white identity can save the 50-state union by turning black and Hispanic minorities into psychological whites.
You’re also forgetting this came on the heels of two false-flag shootings, so obviously they would delay it out of (((respect))).
I just want to point out that as a conservative, the alt-right crybabies who whine about being censored but then went and got this movie censored are omegacucks that put reddit basedboys to shame first of all, it would have been terrible, it would have been hilarious, it would have helped establish our narrative that leftists literally want to kill us (which they do) but no you poor babbies couldn't take it so you had to censor them. Way to give up the high ground faggots.

>anyone have that mosque shooting video kek kek kek >OMG CANCEL HOLLYWOOD FOR THIS FANTASY PORTRAYAL OF EVIL DEMOCRATS Jow Forums is so hypocritical
It'd still be encouraging people to shoot Trump supporters -- recall Borat, which was intended to make fun of antisemitism, just made mocking jews more popular.

Wew this is gaslighting on an entirely new level

predictive programming. communists want us dead and bleeding red.

Imagine being a conservative in 2019.

Please find a thread complaining about this movie that wasn't made by the production company's publicist. Go ahead, you can use /tv/ too if you need to.

It's amazing.

>criticism is censorhip Amazing
There is a 0% chance that Trump criticizing a liberal movie can make it less popular
Daniel Roberts
This. He knows a civil war would be possible and is wanting to avoid it. He knows that the right can handle satire against it, mostly because the right can think.
The left however has been shown to be incapable of criticism against itself. The left feels, and when criticized effectively they lose their minds.
Why did the purge fail? Mostly because the premise that murder could be legal one night a year had improved the economy so much that they kept the ceremony made libertarian and consecutive economists immediately dismiss such an idea since it didn’t account for property damage or the amount of lost training and experience replacing dead employees would immediately have. Not to mention the effects of ptsd, a tied up legal system trying to determine who was murdered and when. Also note that all CRIME was legal on the night of the purge, where were the cp, drug, prostitution, and other vices? The purge was a cheap excuse for a scary movie that required the viewer to disavow all knowledge of basic economics for it to work. This is why it was ineffective. But a left wing themed purge? It’s red meat for Antifa and other useful idiots.
Ya like the Sony leak and that kill North Korea guy dude weed llamo movie.

Nolan Walker
In the end, the eventual release of this movie is going to be a boon for conservatives and cause a chimp-out among leftoids. And it will release, the execs can’t resist the shekels and the filming is clearly done. They release trailers when post-production is in the process.
Dylan Williams
>sympathizes with conservatives by portraying them as retarded cucks getting hunted Lol
Anthony Jenkins
civil war is inevitable. trump is just buying the United States time.
in all honesty, I thought it would have kicked off into overdrive after Las Vegas. all trump had to do was say this was a legitimate leftist/islamic attack on whites but he didn't.
Pure pottery. Imagine how his heart sunk when he received the news that his finished movie was getting pulled because it was too subversive. All the time, money, and energy put towards fostering hatred and divisiveness - all for nothing. No pat on the back for a job well done, just him sitting in the dark with his impotent cock in his hand.
Maybe next time Jason.

Nope it sympathized with liberals who tug their dicks at the idea of being the bad guy. Portraying conservatives as retarded hicks is not sympathizing with them. If anyone actually believes that it goes to show how retarded and out of touch the liberal zogbots who believe this type of garbage are.
Austin White
What are you conserving?
Where will be after you make a handful of 'compromises' every year for 20 years?
here is a funny coincidence. I looked this movie name up and came across a short film from Australia that was released Jan, 2019. about women who down men for equality
