Hey all. Went and saw the Hunger Games last night.I m not sure if i liked it or not. What I really didnt get was the Hoopla surrounding it. Then again i felt the same way about Twilight (only saw the first one ).Thanks to my son for taking Mom and I. did any of you see it.
Have you read the books? I read the books and was very excited to see the movie. We saw it tonight and was very happy with it. They did a good job setting it up and creating the storyline. my wife and i did dicusss on how people would perceive the movie if they did not read the books.

I guess I didnt know what to expect. It was grim and sad. Lots of emotional scenes. I thought of the movie The Lord of the Flies as they were young kids also. I havent read the books.

The books actually are a lot more goary than the movie. I think these movies are going to get some huge book office rwsults from the fact that so many people have read the books, and many many kids as these book were for kids in the teen years.
i liked the colors, sounds and action that this movie had. I knew going in the point of the movie so I was not suprised by the kids stuff.
