It's an amazing premise. We're talking about a world where 364 days out of the year, the few normal people who are naturally kind sit and watch weird assholes try to justify their shitty actions.
Even crazier: a world where non-purgers become vigilantes during non-purge days, taking vengeance on people who brag about their crimes. Nobody suspects them because they play it cool every purge day.
They become popular, get caught, and the movie ends in a peaceful revolution to stop the purge and end the series.
What a far-fetched and unrealistic scenario
My mind is surreal and dark beyond all reason
They kind of did that with the third movie.
It restarted with the fifth movie (four was a sequel). Mostly because the political party whose platform is "we like purges" was reelected. Shockingly things got out of hand. Now there's a sixth movie in production.
YESSS I fucking nailed it. I belong in a writers room
Be kinder to yourself, no one deserves that fate 😔
Oh, it's horrible? I bet I do deserve it then
Office space with a better ending
Wow, you spoiled the whole thing wth. Now I have no reason to watch this hypothetical movie you weren't gonna create anyway
