The Purge 2 trailer and poster
Here's the source. There's no direct source for this one, but it is the trailer and poster. 98.110.8.56 (talk) 18:49, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Filming wrapped on February 10, 2014.
Here's the official source. I've gone ahead and added it to the filming section. 98.110.8.56 (talk) 22:48, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

Edited for spelling and grammar.
Good heavens alive, the English was atrocious in the article. I went ahead and cleaned it up. It's probably not perfect, but it's certainly way better now. Bjacks12 (talk) 01:45, 20 July 2014 (UTC)

For those who think Wikipedia should be something different than another movies database
Here is what happened to my edit about the title of this movie:

1 : Added on 06:17, 17 July 2014 by me: "One more time for the general public in the media culture, the word "Anarchy" is used in the title in a misleading way (disinformation), it is the word "Anomie" which should be used."

2: I restored it on 22:01, 20 July 2014.
 * Removed on 22:09, 20 July 2014‎ by a other IP address (no comment wrote).

3 : Added on 08:00, 21 July 2014‎ by me: "Although the title of the film announces a demonstration of anarchy, it represents rather a case of anomie. The mixture between these two words is frequent in the mass culture, with for consequence to maintain the political disinformation."


 * Removed on 22:27, 21 July 2014‎ by a other IP address. Comment: "This is an article about a movie. Not on political philosophies. Nobody making this movie was trying to disrespect real anarchists. Who's going to see a movie called "The Purge: Anomie"?"

Agreed, the title of this fictional movie has nothing to do with anarchy, a political philosophy of individual sovereignty, but rather seems to be about state sponsored murder purges or sprees as a sport or catharsis for the population, which is reminiscent of the early Greek state of Sparta's periodic killing rampage against the native Helots during the Crypteia. Similar plot themed movies would be Death Race 2000 or Rollerball (1975 film). 71.226.11.248 (talk) 04:30, 27 July 2014 (UTC)

Orphaned references in The Purge: Anarchy
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of The Purge: Anarchy's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "BOM": From Dawn of the Planet of the Apes:  From Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014 film):  From A Quiet Place (film):  From Universal Pictures:  From Ouija: Origin of Evil:  From The Conjuring 2:  From Sex Tape (film):  From The Unborn (2009 film): </li> <li>From The First Purge: </li> <li>From The Purge: Election Year: </li> <li>From Annabelle (film): </li> <li>From Michael Bay: </li> <li>From Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows: </li> <li>From Meet the Blacks: </li> <li>From The Purge (2013 film): </li> </ul>

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 12:15, 15 August 2018 (UTC)
