    This needed it's own threat because it's preposterous.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Why is it preposterous? This shit literally happens. Regularly.

    Are you saying the quality of the film, or the subject matter?

    Because just go on YouTube and you can see this stuff happening for real in like a thousand instances. Just over the last few years.

    I'm saying the movie/trailer is preposterous. The movie title, the confederate flag on the soap, the little girl speaking to the woman... preposterous.

    Ah ok, then agreed.

    Sorry, I thought you were saying the idea of this stuff happening was crazy.

    I think the main complaint about the way this movie looks is about how on-the-nose it is. Looks terrible.

    Agreed the movie looks awful.

    But it also looks like I could read this exact story happening in the news tomorrow.

    Yeah; it's like, one step away from being an SNL trailer parodying a Jordan Peele-style "social horror" movie, but it's being completely serious.

    I had to read through this thread twice, then Google the film to be sure that it wasn't an SNL sketch. I just assumed after the first 10 seconds it was, by second 40 I was laughing, by 1 minute I was bored with the joke. Then, apparently, it's a real movie.

    This pretty much describes my first impression, minus the lack of MC thread.
