Have you seen it? If so, did it remind you of Election 2016 and the Trump campaign?
It did me!
Not seen it, but I know the professional Left is pissed because they think it is critical of Syrian (etc.) refugee admission.
Which, by the way, is horse hockey. The movie was greenlit three years ago before any of that was an issue.
Someone was prescient! Trump is riding the wave.
Hillary certainly reminds me of a pig.
Hahaha!
(Looks cute...I'll catch it on Redbox.)
Is this why all the Leftist reviewers hated this movie so much and gave it bad rating?
Yes!!! Very conservative message.
It’s not a great movie but entertaining. The red bird, “Red” sure reminded me of Donald J Trump!
Pigs are green (Muslim color).
Head pig has a beard (Muslim).
Did you catch the “Coexist” bumper sticker on the pig’s van? :)
Yes! I caught the coexist but missed the significance of the green ‘pigs’. Since I haven’t played Angry Birds, I assumed they were part of the game. I definitely thought Red’s emergence as the leader reminded me of Trump’s rise. Initially ostracized due to his anger and personality, the other bird-folk rally to him in time of dangerous invasion.
The green pigs are part of the original game, but I think the timing of the release of the film (in view of the election) is interesting. I liked it better than the reviews would have me believe. Audience I saw it with (suburban east SF Bay Area) was clapping at the end.
