Blumhouse horror-thriller will arrive in cinemas March 13.
spoke to journalists about Trump’s criticisms after a screening of the film in Los Angeles.
“My overwhelming feeling then was what it is now, which is that I wish that he had seen it,” said Lindelof, whose many other writing credits include the TV shows. “The movie that he was talking about was not the movie that I feel that we made. It was the movie that it was being reported on. So, if he had said, ‘This is a piece of s—, I’m sorry I wasted my time,’ that would have felt better because at least he was talking about the movie.
“My overwhelming thought — after my being surprised — was trying to figure out how we could get the president to see the movie,” said Blum. “That was my biggest thing I was thinking about at that time. And I would love the president to see the movie.” The movie is certainly more politically balanced than Trump’s critique would imply with the film’s liberal characters coming in for a similar amount of mockery as its conservatives.
“I was surprised, I was surprised,” said Lindelof about the controversy that surrounded the film. “In hindsight, and as it was happening, I completely understood why it was happening…[But] having seen it play in test screenings, it was just completely and totally beyond my understanding that the movie was controversial or provocative or ‘third rail.’ That just completely threw me for a loop.
