Out this weekend in theaters is the film BUSHWICK. Set present day, it's a piece of left wing paranoia with an ill-timed release. In the film the Republic of Texas secedes from the Union and as a negotiating tactic decides to take over part of New York to secure their exit.
Unfortunately for the Texas (aided by other southern militia groups) who expected New Yorkers to be unarmed, the locals have stockpiles of weapons -- an ironic endorsement of the 2nd Amendment.
Dave Bautista plays a military veteran who tris to help actress Brittany Snow's character get to a safe zone to evacuate.
Along the way they shoot more than their fair share of rednecks, aided by the local drug dealers and, of course, multicultural patriots.
Had the film insulted any other state in the union undergoing massive flooding, death, and devestation from a hurricane there'd be public outcry. Insult a Trump-voting state and the MSM gives Hollywood a free pass.
Perhaps their political leanings is why CNN all but ignored Hurricane Harvey up until earlier today (Sunday).
Reviews of BUSHWICK have been mixed. Some lament the lack of minorities in the cast and that Bautista looks like a skin head. His character is also a veteran, something Huff Po says makes you a racist (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/becoming-a-racist-the-unfortunate-side-effect-of-serving_us_5995afe4e4b056a2b0ef038c).
Post-Trump election movies and TV have displayed leftist political paranoia. For example, the multi-award winning delusional (Christians are bad) "Handmaid's Tale" and the psy op (prepare the country for losing their President) "Designated Survivor" TV series.
WHo is this Hollywood guy? a blogger or something??
It’s an art house film from a company that mostly imports stuff. Not exactly a Hollywood release, Box Office Mojo doesn’t even have it listed.
Funny. I thought its libs that want to leave America not the other way around.
They vow to leave but they never do.
New York with nasty guns ???
Sci Fi City !!!
:)
Hilarious! Libs are going to fight evil Texan invaders?
Not in this lifetime.
Seriously? What 5 people heard of it. I mean does it really matter? Would it be better if it was New York that had the bad guys? Yes Texas does have some bad guys....Castro Twins among others.
Talk about total sci-fi-people from Texas or the Southern states wouldn’t invade NY or any other state that far away-bad logistical choice and there is no point in it...
There is always something overlapping, coincidence. Not a big deal really, is it? Who has time to watch anyway?

Book: Muzzies are the bad guys
Hollywood Movie: Neo-nazis are the bad guys
We ALL know nazis have nukes, right?

South Africans ALWAYS blow up LA sky-scrapers..!
Not gonna givem any money.
I’ll wait for it to be $2 at a yard sale.
you could not pay me to go watch this piece of crap
BOYCOTT ANY & ALL HOLLYWOOD PRODUCTIONS THAT DEFAME AMERICA OR AMERICANS
They don’t get a dime from me . Never .
Honestly, I hope the DU’ers don’t see this thread. This is typical butthurt you’d see over there. Do you think theaters all over the U.S. should rearrange their schedule over a hurricane?
Attendance will probably be negligible. Too many people dealing with Harvey right now anyway.
“In the film the Republic of Texas secedes from the Union and as a negotiating tactic decides to take over part of New York to secure their exit.”
You know, that is brilliant! Let us go or we’ll give this pest hole called New York city back to you.
Of course, what the heck would we do with that giant stink hole?
I think that if conservatives made a movie about evil New Yorkers and released it the weekend of Hurricane Sandy you’d hear holy hell.
Why not hold your enemy up to their own standards?
Is it okay to hurt the feelings of southerners in film while other groups get a free pass?
Ha!
This is being made while CalExit is going on and has 40% of the support out there now.
But Texans are the bad guys?
Stupid plot. Why would Texans want any part of New York? Besides, they make piss poor picante sauce.
I’ve heard from people and seen all over the internet calls to watch the new Netflix show called Ozark. “It’s the next Breaking Bad,” they say. So, I made it through two and 3/4 of an episode before the gay FBI agent had a male prostitute on his knees in front of him. Shut it off right there. Sadly, I’m seeing people on 2nd Amendment sites and martial arts sites praising this thing and saying “the gay stuff don’t bother me.” I always said they’d get by pushing the gay agenda with two women kissing, but nobody would watch two men kissing. Turns out, they’ll watch actual gay sexual activities. I even see people here praising House of Cards with its gay ####. Somewhere, somehow, I’ve completely crossed over to the Twilight Zone.
