People here and in the Conservative Media saying the Movie should not be released for whatever reason are supporting Censorship. How dare they make this, blah, blah, blah.

Granted, it is not endorsing Government Censorship. That would only happen if Democrats disliked the Movie Plot, which is why I asked what would be happening if the “Hunted’ were Liberals instead of Conservatives.

What struck me about all the initial FR Comments attacking the Movie was the fact that in the end the “Hunted” Conservatives won.

We have a Free Market System. Let that decide the fate of the Movie. If they lose their A$$, the Movie will be the last of its kind.

The last part I agree with, but I don't think it's fair to accuse conservative media of censorship just for saying a movie should not be released. A call for better judgment when making business decisions is hardly censorship. The movie should never have been greenlit to begin with.

It's one thing to produce a movie like Hunger Games or The Handmaid's Tale that uses allegory to skewer a particular political viewpoint. It's another to engage in straight up violence fantasies that stoke one side, no matter the outcome of the plot.
