    Here's an interesting theory about the postponement and a possible "third act" of the movie that would be relatively brilliant (by current Hollywood standards) if it was in the film...

    SNIP
    My guess: After the MAGA types have defeated the liberal elites, we learn they’re being manipulated by puppet masters eager to play in to their base level stereotypes, that the whole thing was a setup to keep them angry and keep them from examining the real roots of their “oppression.”)

    Man, sounds like a documentary to me...

    The only base level stereotypes I'm seeing is the liberal propensity for violence against those they oppose...

    We need an
    "underground" movie industry.
    Not just for porn.
    But, for PC forbidden topics.

    Market viewing on the web.
    Maybe even a "GoFundMe" effort for starter money.

    LOL... that's sort of the point... puppets don't see the puppet masters (if the puppet masters are any good and/or the puppets are none too bright)

    Just calling people puppets doesn't make them so. Look at Democrats and their fixed primaries, nothing democratic about that...

    How about the GOP and their ATTEMPT to steal the congressional seat in NORTH CAROLINA by paying a political operative tens of thousands to hire people to pick up mail in ballots and alter them or fill them in to favor the Greedy Old Party candidate????

    The movie just illustrates the evil lurking in the liberal heart.

    Leftism is truly despicable.

    No, the Democrats have been vilifying Trump since he announced his candidacy and it has NEVER stopped. As someone stated before, this "movie" was originally titled "Red State vs Blue State" so those of you who said it wasn't political are totally WRONG. This is a way to dehumanize Trump supporters so that violence against them becomes acceptable. If they are "evil" then you are justified in doing them bodily harm. It's sick and evil. Democrats had better get a grip NOW.

    The movie illustrates just how the cons are the snowflakes.

    I agree if that is true, just like I was against Trump's 2nd Amendment people will stop Hillary comment, both would be uncalled for and could set off some crazies

    no idea if the writers were left or right on this film

    Oh, I think the lefties will be shoving each other out of the way to be first in line for this movie, should it ever be released.

    I regret that the movie won't be in theaters anytime soon.

    It would have been good for we the people.

    Do you know what the reaction would be if there was a movie about conservatives hunting libs? The world would stop. It would be the only news story for six months.

    The liberal mind is truly dark. It’s the kind of brain that’s on the wrong end in books like “1984”, “Fahrenheit 451”, and “Animal Farm”.

    The movie isn't about libs hunting down cons. Did you get this upset with the purge movies? How about Machete? Before Trump, cons used to have spines. Since Trump has become their daddy, he now changes their diapers.

    Libs have always worn diapers. If look cross-eyed at a minority, there are violent protests, boycotts, etc.

    Tucker Carlson is a media person with no political power, and libs broke down his front door and spray painted his driveway.

    And you don’t think that Trump hasn’t deserved such vilification? From the gross generalization of Mexicans as murderers and rapists to attacking a Gold Star family to saying there were good people in Charlottesville to jabbing opponents when El Paso is trying to heal to attacking coveted Washington institutions in between, you really don’t think Trump deserved it?

    What the man has brought the most to this nation is division. To pretend he hasn’t is to bury your head in the sand.

    They'll release it after "progressives" are through crying about the latest shootings.

    I saw a trailer for this picture a couple of weeks ago.

    The theme is one that I have always found disturbing.

    And this is not the first film about humans hunting other humans. The genre goes back to the 1930’s at least.

    Thankfully, they are few and very far between.
