If you found yourself trapped in the same situation that those people were in were you get zapped and killed every 2 minutes until there is only 1 person left then how far do you honestly think that you yourself would go in it ?
For me, I like to think I would make it down to the Final 10 but I would probably end up getting zapped well before then. What does everyone else think ?
I hope I would be morally upright enough to not vote at all.
One thing that frustrated me in this movie was how long the *beep* lived. I was wondering who is voting for these random people when some jerkoff is making some selfish rant. If it were me I would be trying to get them killed off first, so I probably wouldn't last very long based off the choices people made in the movie.
I think during these moments people may have been too distracted to actually cast a vote and the random pickings took place.
If that were the case it would actually be a good strategy to quickly and easily kill people off who might otherwise survive longer than you.
For the record though I'd like to believe I would abstain from voting if not also be vocal about the hypocrisy of it all?especially from the so called Christians in the group (I'm just highlighting them because they were the most visible/vocal religion in the movie). How can you say you love God but are also engaging in judging/killing people. That moment in particular made my blood boil the most. This movie if nothing else, showed how awful and disgusting humanity is, especially under the guise of being upright and humane.

not too long probably. I like to think though I'm not a judge or executioner, so I wouldn't vote.
shareI'm sitting behind an Internet wall in my Internet armchair right now, so I'd like to think that I would have been one of the volunteers.
The instrument has yet to be invented that can measure my indifference to that remark.

I felt like that situation would have just sucked so bad that I would have ended up volunteering. It seemed like a quick painless death and I would have just wanted it over with.
share"It seemed like a quick painless death"
---------------------------------
Just based on the way both the rich guy and the black guy reacted when they got zapped, I don't think it was painless.
Yeah, the killing process seemed vicious but I also thought they were getting tased and so it seemed as though they were dying but really weren't?turned out they were getting killed though.
shareNot that far unless by sheer luck, I'm not nearly smart enough to figure out the game so quickly like Eric and not likeable or social enough to bond and relate with people, I'll just be like Shawn or the mute guy, although I would certainly play the game and vote like most people.
shareI'd hope i make it to the end & like Eric I'd kill the pregnant woman & child. I'm more like the long haired hippy guy. I want to live & would try to assemble a team to vote out the girl. But after watching the movie, I'd probably use Eric's strategy.
shareNot until the end, nor would I want to make it until the end. The whole scenario is a lose-lose situation - even if you survive, you'd have to either commit, or consent to a huge pile of atrocities, something I wouldn't want to live with.
...Or be a child and be lucky that your circle contains merciful people, which is already too late for me .
