Scenario around the Purge?

You mean the fucking stupid ass plot they tried to shoe hammer in?

Setting, and the expansive background to why the system of forced catharsis came in to place have been ignored because of the movie's plot *sigh*.

Well yeah, thats not explained, doe sit matter though?

Its like what, a few years into the future, it never explains why everyone is pants on head retarded, why the Purge works, how it defies Human mentality with the concept.

The idea would probably be better if the Purge was a monthly event of getting rid of the homeless and ventured into peoples herd mentality and response to authority, but the movie just fucked that up twice with a unworkable plot, lack of detail, cliches that do not matter at all, and just ignoring that one night wouldn't fucking end all crime for a damn year.

I fucking hate that stupid ass movie sooo much...

If you thin a purge would work, you need help...because it wouldn't, its just as stupid as Lucy (Well not really, if we count that Dolphins and echolocation thing, the the purge comes in second.)

On that note, Hollywood, when you make a movie with a scientific basis mixed in, make sure the idea actually makes fucking sense, or has any grounding in the field of science is in.

It worked in the movie because the U.S was not a republic in the slightest anymore. aAtleast following the second U.S Constitution being implemented.


It doesn't matter what some second constitution (How it arrived? Who knows?) allowed or did.

Biologically, physiologically, the purge doesn't work...

Whats stopping revenge killing, random crazed murder sprees, accidental murder, etc.

Why does one day suddenly make no one violent or want to harm, even though science shows this isn't the god damn case.

Quickly, have the cops close them in and make everyone stand down, if not whip out the SWAT teams and the riot police and crack some teargas canisters and some skulls, if that dont work call out the National Guard with the Stryker's and Bradley's and show these assholes who's boss.

If not, then expect assholes who are arguably worse to take to the streets and attempt to fix themselves the job the state clearly can't do.

But more realistically is will be just like TEA Party or OWS and blow over in a few months or a year or so at most...

Action movies have three basic mostly all-encompassing categories. Action Comedy, Action Drama, and Action Action (think Robocop). The Purge was an Action Drama, a category with a lot of science bending. Artistic licensing for any action film is very broad, so there is no use getting uppity about a bit of bad science.

The 'science' in the purge made The Core look scientifically feasible.

I'll be perfectly honest with you, I have never understood why people approach Hollywood films expecting significant scientific accuracy. Do your research, people. You can usually predict how shit the realfakts will be based on who's directing the movie. And science stupidness aside, the Core was a pretty cool film.

The background is explained since the Purge just doesn't take place in "the future" it takes place in an ATL divergent at the point of a mass takeover of a weakened central government in 2014. The weakened government stemmed from a completely disasterous economic situation thus essentially the U.S in this world is the result of a second attempted Business Coup (1933-1934 movement to overthrow FDR it had the back of several ancestors to modern day presidents in OTL, but failed thankfully).

On the topic of crime it still occurs daily the purge is hardly perfect, but in the mind of a totalitarian government which deals with absolutes to the point the Sith look benevolent it makes sense to them (the government doesn't always agree with science).

I'm a bit scared, but from a rational view I don't see anything that big happening. I figure if people were to go on a crime spree there wouldn't be as much murder as I believe there is in The Purge. Plus these events (or at least Detroit's) were scheduled for earlier today, and so far I haven't heard of anything horrendous happening.

Personally I woud prefer HBO deal with the idea rather than a duology which will come out with another movie ending in an absurd trilogy. Then again the Crypteia is far more realistic of a potential series :P.

Thankfully it doesn't really work that way, and this will probably be taken as a joke by most.

Still, it's good that police departments are taking it seriously enough to be vigilant on the date it's set for.

If an actual Purge where it was legal existed I'm sure that would happen, but I just don't see people suddenly becoming murderous just because they have the chance to avoid legal consequences. Other crimes would probably be more popular choices, and there would still be the emotional or social consequences of murdering someone.

And since murder isn't legal I don't see it happening. Well maybe a case or two but not a lot.

Considering the fact they had to use death squads just to ramp up the death count proves how unpopular of a system it would really be.

It would be like-

A nice family of three kids, a wife and a dad but dad is cheating on his wife and his new girlfriend tells him to kill his family if he's devoted enough to her during The Purge....

-nasty gruesome scenes-

Rumor is the National Guard was just ordered into the city and has been ordered to use force to stop the Purge.
