A lot of emotion for a world with no emotion

It's comical the amount of retards like the thread starter come to this forum to say the same stupid and false beep
The movie never claimed the society had no emotion. The movie claimed the society was taking a drug called "Prozium" to eradicate the extremes of emotion. It never said that emotion itself was forbidden. It said the drug was to be taken to keep emotion in check, at an "Equilibrium" so-to-speak.
Why don't you watch the movie before coming and asking stupid beep questions like this.
And as for characters showing extreme emotion like Father, that's obviously because he wasn't on the dose, as he said at the end of the film. Along with other government elite members like Brandt.
Why ask such a foolish question when the movie CLEARLY states the concept without having to ask the board?
Fear is not an emotion either, you try and attack a spider and he runs off, that is "FEAR," you really think that tiny simplistic organism has emotions? FOH.
I'll add on. The only characters in the film to show emotion were those who were NOT taking the drug.
Preston, Preston's wife and children. Father, Brandt and Father's trench-coat henchmen, Partridge, the school teacher etc.

Hey everybody I think we have found a fan boy here. Fan boy alert!! Fan boy alert!! It really seems like the entire time you were writing this, your blood pressure must have been off the charts and your heart beat was at least 150 BPM.
Just to be clear, every single character shows many different emotions throughout the entire film, whether they were on the drug or not. You just have to know what to look for. Like I said before, to convey the message they were trying to get across, the director should have had them all act like Data from Star Trek TNG. It would have been a much better movie. -

He's not a fanboy, and his arguments show it. You're simply too dumb to understand. I think this movie is too difficult for you. You're better off with cartoons, kiddo!

OP came here for attention because clearly he didn't watch the movie

Come prove me wrong.
Cite EXAMPLES from scenes where an individual on the drug showed EXTREME emotion.
Otherwise admit defeat.

As soon as he stops taking the drug he appears to start appreciating small emotional reactions for the first time, such as when he takes his glove off and runs his hand along the banister.
That doesn't fit with your 'extreme emotions' theory? -

A theory? The movie says so itself dumb beep
And since when did someone caressing a stair-rail constitute as being a subtle emotion? You're dumb as beep
