I've never understood the premise of The Purge. Why would making all crime legal one day a year have any kind of benefit? I've never seen the movie, by the way, just always wondered about it.

To get it out of their systems. That's one of the questions I had about the movie that it answered in an incredibly disappointing way.

Sounds like a concept someone who has not met many humans would come up with.

Aye. It could have been made into an allegory on class warfare or something along those lines.

I've always thought that "The Happening" had such a solid premise, but it was obviously executed terribly.

Like the very base premise with the suicides or the whole thing with the murderous plant gas?

Both. The fact that the plant gas was making people commit suicide is so sweet. Horrible execution though.

The Happening was probably the best comedy movie of that year.
