Because knowing God, they didn’t glorify him as God, and didn’t give thanks, but became vain in their reasoning, and their senseless heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.

  Probably too gory for my taste, but I'd watch it anyway.

Well, since we haven't actually had one (officially), "documentary" isn't accurate.  It was more of a rigorous scientific look at potential disaster scenarios which are certain to result from global warming and climate change.

Everything the enemy media makes is propaganda.

This movie, like all of the cesspools product is a "nudge".

It doesn't have to be overt and after watching we may not be able to pinpoint THEIR point.

If you think multi million projects in Hollywood get green lighted if they work against Hollywoods goals then you are naive.

What are Hollywoods goals?

Read about the movie "Greeen Hell." Not all movies are PC.

Darn.  I was so looking forward to mocking it.


I'm not sure it was really cancelled.

Quote
Universal Pictures has canceled the planned September release of its controversial social satire “The Hunt,” in the wake of recent mass shootings and amid criticism from President Donald Trump.

So it won't be released this September. But ...

Quote

In a statement Saturday, Universal said it had decided to take the further step of canceling the film's Sept. 27 release, saying "We understand that now is not the right time to release this film."

Left open was the possibility that the movie could be released in theaters or on streaming at a later date.

If the dems win big in 2020 they'll release the film as a how to film.

I’m seeing ads for this again. They are being pretty explicit in the ad that the elites hunting humans are the bad guys.

I saw some youtube commentary suggesting it was actually trying to be a comedy.  We will see.

I wonder if the movie was tweaked a bit after being pulled the first time?

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Remember, too, that one of the hunted turns the tables on the elites and pretty much kills them all.

This is a film adaptation of The Most Dangerous Game, a 1924 short story that's considered a classic. I had to read it in 10th grade literature class.

There have been a bunch of film adaptations over the years.

Universal Pictures says it's loosely based on The Most Dangerous Game.

There have been numerous books, plays, stories, movies, radio plays, etc., based on this premise over the years.

Yeah, it's more the premise, given "The Most Dangerous Game" is the most well-known of the genre. "Rogue Male" by Geoffrey Household, is another interesting spin on the premise, where the main character kinda instigates his problem.

I read a book some years ago that judges and other well-connected people in New York City were kidnapping criminals who had "gotten away with it" by beating the system and dropping them into various underground tunnels under the city where they would be hunted for sport.

Can't remember the name of it, but it was an obvious take on, and expansion of, TMDG...


Oh hell. I typed the premise into Google and it spat it right out.
