Hopefully this one doesn't turn out to be a teeny boppy childrens flick like the first one. The first one had a good trailer and you expected so much and then nothing happens, it was stupid and clowny. Catching fire seems to be shapeing up to be alright at best. There needs to be more thrill, blood, action, politics that make sense, originality. This series is just lucky to have a massive teenage following.

This series needs intensity first and foremost. Your pitted up against other people that want, no...need to kill you. It's one of those series where there is so much potential but then they make it for teenage girls.

But the thing is, they are just following the books...and I wouldn't have it any other way. But don't worry, the second and especially the third book ramp it up in the action. So there's that.

And I find it highly offensive that you imply only teenage girls would like it. I'm fairly certain that I am not a teenage girl

The first movie was good but overrated IMO. Don't get me wrong, I know this isn't the place to post that but hopefully the second one will turn out more interesting.

Hey it's your opinion so it's valid.  People don't like that then they can get out of my thread.

C'mon. The Twilight opinion was just wrong.

That one was weird, but at least the people who replied to him didn't attack him mindlessly which is fine by me.  Stay respectfull and it's all good. :-p

Hey same here. xD  There are many movies/tv shows I watch that a lot of people would only expect teen girls to watch.  Most of them are thrillers and mystery with some sort of love story in it.  Oh well I like them and that's all that matters. :-p

I'm also that way with music. I'm not going to stop liking something just because I'm not supposed to like it.

Twilight levels of awful.

What?!?! I don't even...


Is a Twilight version of Battle Royale.   Took something already done and done much better, change it to appeal to lowest common denominators and lose the reason the original was so much better in doing so.

Agreed.

I do not want to be mean but I really cannot understand why I did not like the first movie. Honestly I thought it was very much like twilight, and just copied the movie /manga Battle Royale. The main character barely did anything in the movie just sat back and watched everyone kill everyone, and went lovey dovey on the dude. Also disappointing compared to the book I heard. The trailer looks similar but slightly better.

What am I missing Hunger Games fans?

I am talking about the movie here. Books are almost always better then the movie, but you can still comment on the quality of the movie.
