Yes, it was an original story. The concept of 'The Purge' introduced a unique and disturbing dystopian idea of a society where all crime is legal for a set period of time. It had its own distinct plotlines and themes that hadn't been explored in quite the same way before in mainstream media.
Definitely not. 'Starship Troopers' is a substantive piece of sci-fi that delves into significant ideas and doesn't have the characteristics of a parody. It's intended to engage readers in serious discussions rather than offer comical or satirical takes.
There were many novels similar to Starship Troopers, such as Star Trek, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Star Wars, and so on. These novels all involved interstellar adventures, sci-fi wars, alien creatures, future technology, and other topics. If you're interested in these novels, I can recommend some to you, such as Star Pirates from the Star Trek series, Blade Runner from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and so on.
No. 'The Purge' is a work of fiction. It's a creative concept that imagines a world with a very different social structure regarding violence and law. There are no real - world events where a government sanctions a period of lawless killing and mayhem like in the movies.
There might be a fanfiction where Sam and Dean Winchester find themselves in a town during the purge and have to figure out a way to stop a powerful supernatural being that is taking advantage of the lawless night. They could team up with some local survivors who have some knowledge of the supernatural.
Yes, 'The Purge' is loosely based on some real - world concepts. For example, in some areas, there are periods of lawlessness or high crime rates that can be seen as a very, very loose inspiration. But the movie takes it to an extreme with the legalized annual purge.
The 'the purge novel' could be about different aspects. It might focus on the psychological impact on the people who live in a society where there is a purge. It could tell the stories of survivors, how they cope with the fear and violence during the purge period. Also, it may explore the political or social reasons behind the existence of such a radical system in the fictional world.
