One Direction during The Purge

good

OMG you just made me realize that if "All Crime Is Legal, Including Murder," then that includes bribery, embezzlement, insider trading, suborning of perjury, anti-trust violations -- Really, by the fourth or fifth annual Purge, I think the final sirens would have gone off and the TV Emergency Broadcast System noise would have been cut short with, "Alexa, are there any surviving glaziers near me?" (Alexa-doo-doot sound) "There are four window-repair shops within five miles of you. Shall I call them to see if anyone answers?" And then Jeff Bezos comes on-screen and announces that the New Founding Fathers have merged with him to form a new, low-cost, highly convenient nation, the nation of Amazonia.

The problem with these films is the conceit that old money just want to kill the poor. Money and power love money and power, as is their want. Their should be a Purge movie of having to stop a room full of shady economists, lawyers, and accountants trying to gut the economy and the team of young federal idealists trying to stop them. Less guns, more typing and yelling into phones.

I'm watching this now after returning from Comic Con, and I have an idea for a future video: Get a jar and put random topics in it, then pick two and try to find cringe-filled fan fiction written about it. I bet you won't strike out.

I think the funniest part of this is where you read people's nicks out loud. "Nnaann14."

Here's a novel moral dilemma: a kindly doctor wants to test a new lifesaving surgical intervention that helps people live with a semi-rare genetic condition. Big Pharma makes millions every year selling medication that keeps sufferers alive but uncured, and their lobbyists passed laws forbidding "untested surgeries" for this genetic condition. So the doctor waits for The Purge, then has his masked orderlies kidnap a dozen "random" people (really, he hacked into 23andMe, so he knows they all have The Condition). Wearing his doctor mask, he does his surgeries on all of them, but then in the morning, it turns out all the kidnap victims have been cured, and the live video stream from the cameras were going to Switzerland for peer review NOT just to sadists' houses. So while it looked like they were caught in the web of a mad scientist (like in The Human Centipede), the ultimate twist is that The Bad Guy Is Nice! They even do callbacks to where the doctor said scary things, but now you can see he was being nice the whole time..."Yes, I said you'd live no longer than your little brother, Patrick...and the two of you will live long, healthy lives!"

Well, those are the ubiquitous moral dilemmas, but I think the boyfriend in the movie had gotten a stern talking to and came back for revenge; this was a flat accident.

Your post made me think that there should be a remake of the Twilight Zone episodes of “The Shelter” and “One More Pallbearer” but set in the Purge universe. Maybe I should write my own fan fic!

I know that the boyfriend talking to the Dad and then getting shot is straight out of the first movie, as is a family member putting the house at risk to let an outsider in for protection.

I’m no Purgeophile but weren’t most of these stories just retelling of the Purge movies beat for beat? Making One Direction the Old Bay seasoning you toss on leftovers before microwaving.

I genuinely just woke up from a long dream where I was in a Twilight Zone Tween Tulpa Purge Night. It was The Purge, but most of the competition was between adolescent girls, all of whom had an entourage of pop stars acting out their teenage angst and yearnings, so you might encounter multiple One DIrections confronting each other and changing their personalities as the girls updated their psyches.

Not knowing who Team 10 are is a blessing and I wish I could also un-know that information.

"Daddy Direction" made me vomit in my mouth...just a little...but still...

I had to Google who some of these people were. Wikipedia says that "Team 10 — just as often referred to as Team X or Team Ten — was a group of architects and other invited participants who assembled starting in July 1953 at the 9th Congress of the International Congresses of Modern Architecture (CIAM) and created a schism within CIAM by challenging its doctrinaire approach to urbanism."

I bet family therapists leverage The Purge as a good time to air longstanding grievances, or to express long-repressed desires. AND I bet there's a ton of public offers of marriage during The Purge, as well.

During The Porge, it's illegal to stop giving a porg lil' scritches before it's ready for you to stop, and it's illegal run out of snacks for them, and it's illegal to have low energy when asking questions like "Who's The Cutest Little Porg Ever? EVERRRR???"

Steve Ray

A young female writer subverting our expectations and creating a determined action hero was a great way to end this episode.

T. Fazekas

Oh you did add more screencaps plus music very cool.

My name is Hannah and I think that Hannah is the main character is like 50% of tween girl fan fics

Hannah Boyer

My name's Haley and now my sister is roasting me, pretending like I wrote that first one smh

Haley Hastings

The giant porg made me try to imagine what "The Porge" would be like

dwayneotron

I feel like Giant Porg is extending a flipper to me, inviting me to a magical world where anything is possible. I don't know if I'm ready to reach back and accept just yet.

Much like Paranormal Activity, Resident Evil, & Saw, The Purge franchise are total guilty pleasure movies for me. The premise is totally absurd but if you look past it and don’t over think any of it they can be fun. Start with the first, if you can’t get through that one then I wouldn’t go any further.

Bananas...simply bananas

I'm glad Easter Snake now has Party Snake there to give them some company.

The BabaDuck

i'm only slightly ashamed to know that that's not how you pronounce louis. anyway, i love all of your bad fanfic readings. (when can we expect jeff the killer 2?)

Marissa Wilk

If it were the Purge, I'd bring Jenny her favorite Disney World, orange twirl, soft-serve ice cream and insist she eat it very, very fast, giving her brain freeze. Bwahaha!

Tom Bowling

until now i thought the weirdest wattpad fic was kidnapped by shawn mendes but i stand corrected

Bethany Gemmell

I can’t think about the Purge movies for too long without getting irrationally heated about the premise. Does this mean I need to watch them all right now

Spalfos

So many bananas in this video!!! Was that planned???

Andrea Federica

You know what, from now on my username is Now that my parents are dead I can have all the skulls that I want. A.K.A. Daddy Direction.
