interesting concept

however, i also remember a movie set in the future, about the human race,
invalids vs chosen ones; gattaca

i very much enjoyed gattaca, interesting concept, not to bad of a cast. a good story, something to really thing about if in the future this could happen, and it just might.

where i going on this, when its really about the... whats the movie again?

oh the "hunger games"...

hmm

hmmmm

hmmm, i didn't fall asleep. it didn't look memorable. ok, maybe a parallel universe, 5, 6th dimension parallel to our world. naw.

anyway, where was i, ah "the hunger games". it a reality show maybe set in the future. "Survivor 2074"

I also know why movie markers knows how to pull the crowd these days. cast younger, and younger actors. throw a little hint of romance. a little unbelievable scenario, by golly the magic formula!!

it's really late, i dont know what i rambling about. I don't quite remember what i watch just know blink.gif

i know there are those who read books & compare the movie. 99.99% movies are never able to envision the same as books. words (books) are powerful & everyone has their own interpretation because the mind is as such.

movies are visuals way to interpret a story to a movie goer. in that aspect, well.. the hunger games is an attempt. sci fi future of the human race of the future will be difficult to tackle.

this movie has an interesting theme, unfortunately i...

Disappointment is merely a level of expectation that you set to a movie. Since Rotten have given high scores, you may want to judge it yourself. Just take out any sort of expectations, enjoy the movie, and then you think about it later.

Hahaha I guess people used to expect it to be like the book and Battle royale. I do hope it is enjoyable. I wanted to see it so bad. i think now i have to put less expectation. XD So as not to disappoint myself.

Thanks Kyoyagami. you watch it already?

If you have read the book, chuck it as if you have not (save yourself on the..)

Just go in to watch with no expectations. Bring in lots of popcorn, i think it will help during the movie, keeps one occupied in somewhere and in parts of the movie, probably it may be the highlight of your movie experience watching this movie. At least you won't go hungry from "The hunger games".

I know a lot of you take rotten tomatoes as a barometer for a movie before you watch or to set an expectation of a movie. I do not. After watching so many movies and reading so many comments (forums) here and there. I guess the taste of movie goers of late have shifted (a little).

hmm.gif

As I said, cool2.gif the glitter is (badly) missing from this. It not too bad of an idea if you look at it. blush.gif

Well I can say sometime rotten tomatoes review cannot be rely on. Some movie I find it nice but they dont and some movie i find it boring but they dont. XD So I guess I need to stay positive with it. Suddenly I dun feel so enthusiastic to watch Hunger Games like I did last week.

Battle Royale addresses real world issues. Hunger Games is mere entertainment with the identical concept =/

Sorry, as a Battle Royale fan, I find Hunger Games quite poor.

Just watched the movie.

In my opinion la, the story in the beginning which is before the arena scenes is very good. I thought it was good that they talked about it every single thing in the book (except the mockingjay pin part without Madge in it).

But then in the arena, everything happened too fast. As i expected, they really didn't focus much on other tributes like what in the book (i mean, not as much as in the book). But then my friends couldn't really catch up who is who, you know what i mean laugh.gif

I also expected the MOST important scene between Rue and Katniss to be appeared in the movie, but then it didn't. I feel kinda disappointed with that la.

Overall it's still a good adapted film. Just that if you read the book, you'd feel slightly disappointed. I will still watch the 2nd and 3rd part of the movie.

OH and btw, Elizabeth Banks as Effie and Tucci as Caeser, THEY ARE VERY VERY GOOD. I like them.
And not to mention, I think Jennifer Lawrence is perfect for Katniss this role.
