The Hunger games, will it be as good as Battle Royale?

Watched In Time last night - 6.5/10.

Cool concept where time = money, felt like it could have been more, meandered a bit in the middle but still enjoyable.

JT the actor >>>>>>>>>>> JT the singer/dancer and Amanda Seyfried egg is incred.

Chronicle was superb. Thought all the good bits would have been in the trailers, but they definitely weren"t.
Best film I"ve seen in a long long time. 4.5 stars out of 5 from me x

I thought Chronicle was excellent also and I"m loving this thread.  Just need some time to go through Paulie"s Picks at the top first.  As I"ve said before though, very much looking forward to Dredd and the Hunger Games.

Oh yes, I like the look of that very much.  Absolutely loved the first three Alien films.

I bought the book yesterday - it"s a shame that the commercial reality of getting a lower certificate has diluted the film - a truer adaptation of the book would get an "18" and would be a better all round film than BR.

I saw the Hunger Games over the weekend and thought it ran pretty true to the book.  I liked the use of extreme close ups early on to mimic the claustraphobia of living in district 12.  All in all, great story and enjoyable film.  I rated it 8 / 10 on iMDB.
