Movie about killing Trump supporters cancelled

[Hirota]

Steve Scalise would like a word with you about the Berniebro who tried to murder him.

Tried. The only person he killed was himself. Next to the double digit counts of recent shootings?

I'm curious; do you believe that "Alt-right killed more" is a convenient excuse to absolve crimes you sympathise with?

I'd assume not, but plenty of people like to have double standards on this kind of things, I'm sure you understand.

Seems like Gauth is using "it was only attempted" as his main shitty excuse, while the alt-right one is merely secondary.

Dayton shooter was antifa.

[Breaking Badlands]

No, now we can discuss whether or not it should have been cancelled or whether the studio is run by complete pussies.

They're pussies.

I'm thinking they are dicks.

Sure. Now prove that his ideology motivated the shooting.

Dayton shooter was antifa.

And so far evidence does not point to him doing it for political reasons.

Actually evidence last I saw pointed to it being a retaliation against El Paso.

And the difference is?

Source? I haven't read anything about his motive so far, nor much about his personal life other than who his brother was (since he was a victim).

This question leaves a big opening to drive a mack truck thru. Let me put it this way... ever heard Iggy Pop sing Cock in my pocket or Rich Bitch from the live album Metallic KO? Your answer is there.

[The Sherpa Empire]

Their movie, their choice. I can see why some people were uncomfortable with it.

How cute of you to give him points for incompetence.

Filmmaker confirms what any idiot would know about the film if they thought about it for half a damn second.

He said that the film does not take sides politically, and that his goal was instead to satirize “both sides” of the partisan divide.

“Our ambition was to poke at both sides of the aisle equally,” he wrote. “We seek to entertain and unify, not enrage and divide. It is up to the viewers to decide what their takeaway will be.”
...
Zobel said the film has been misunderstood. He said it was actually about partisanship, and how both sides fail to fully hear their opponents’ views.

“I wanted to make a fun, action thriller that satirized this moment in our culture — where we jump to assume we know someone’s beliefs because of which ‘team’ we think they’re on… and then start shouting at them,” he wrote. “This rush to judgment is one of the most relevant problems of our time.”
...
Universal has not screened the film for critics, so the political content of the final cut is still largely a matter of conjecture. An early draft of the script obtained by Variety makes clear that the original intention was to depict working-class conservatives as the heroes. They are kidnapped and hunted by “liberal elites,” one of whom says “Climate change is real” before blowing his victim away. One of the good guys talks about the “Deep State,” and another fantasizes about going on “Hannity” to expose the conspiracy.
...
“While some outlets have indicated that test screenings for ‘The Hunt’ resulted in negative audience feedback; in fact, the film was very well-received and tallied one of the highest test scores for an original Blumhouse film,” a Universal spokesperson said. “Additionally, no audience members in attendance at the test screening expressed discomfort with any political discussion in the film. While reports also say ‘The Hunt’ was formerly titled ‘Red State vs. Blue State,’ that was never the working title for the film at any point throughout the development process, nor appeared on any status reports under that name.”

Don't know why Trump supporters are angry about it The movie has them fighting back against the evil elites who are trying to kill them.

Obviously, I believe it doesn't but I still fully believe Universal should release the film. It gives a nice peek into the demented psyche of Hollwood.

Demented psyche as in... depicting Trump supporters as the Good Guys?


but of course I bet a load of people have already pointed that out and I just haven't seen them point it out because there's 17 pages of people discussing this for some reason??

[Springfeal]

I watched the trailer and read about the basic plot of the movie. I never saw anything particularly political about it, especially nothing about Donald Trump.
