Hunger Games the books
« on: 20 April 2012, 18:31 »
Just listened the audio book of the hunger games trilogy. I thought it was really good and would recommend them.

I listened to the audio books in quick succession and the story progresses and changes dramatically.

is this film actually any good? when I saw the trailer all I could think was 'battle royale rip off'. I know its based on books but pretty sure the japs did it first and battle royale is a pretty awesome film so dont wanna sit there for 2 hours thinking its not as good as the other one

The similarities are strikingly similar in terms of the first book and BR however the second and third book take the story on an unexpected and different course.

Are the other 2 films going to be made?

I heard something or another about the director?


Yeah other films are gunna be made, but different director as they wanted them done too quickly for the original director apparently.

I thought the film was good, its made me want to read the books anyway  :smiley:

i thought the film was pretty good apart from the fire and dog type creatures appearing.
