I haven't seen the film yet, but I've read the first book. I can see why they would do something like that, but I'm going to raise the question of whether they should be trying to make a movie like this "family friendly", given the content....What "content" are you talking about? The premise of the books it totally fine. Everyone is saying how inappropriate it is for children and young teens etc. But in reality there are MANY worse movies and books out there that kids are reading. So I think people need to take a chill pill on the Hunger Games as a series and calm down a little bit. RCF

@ Dorek, Yes the camera work was pretty bad. But the only reason why was because they wanted to make it child and family friendly.@Emperor Kraghh, In the right sitiuation less can be more. I would say see the movie first, then read the books. All my friends and I read the book first and we had out expectations really high. The movie was so close to meeting them though! So just for kicks try it that way! (:RCF

Oakley makes the BEST sunglasses ever! Next to Ray Ban! I currently own three pairs of Oakley's. The Jury, Flak Jacket (polarized) and all white Gascan’s. I plan to sell my Jury's and get the women's Radar's. White Chrome with blue iridium lenses. Does anyone else think Oakley is amazing?RCF

Post them here! But make sure they are appropriate! Here is mine! (: RCF

Ok guys so I just saw it again for the 2nd time and it was even better then the first time!!! I was able to see things that I didn't the first time I saw it! I would highly recommend to seeing it two times!!! I'm still on Mocking Jay chapter 8 to be exact. I CAN'T get into it like the first two! I read the first two books in 3 days! I have had Mocking Jay for a month now! haha Anywho I'm starting to LOVE the career tributes (Districts 1&2, Marvel,Glimmer,Cato and Clove) Cato is my favorite career and he is a hottie!! Clove is pretty BA with her throwing knives! Marvel is just a cutie and Glimmer is pretty chill. Do y'all like the careers? RCF

@ Purple Bouncy,Ok so I agreed with you on 2/3 of what you said... Why did Peeta suck horriably? What was "bad" about him on the movie? So what if we want to say "Team Glale" or "Team Peeta"? Granted people went a little crazy about Twilight with shirts,tatoos etc. But atleast this movie has some morals and ethics to it rather then Twilight.@ Pantera,How DARE you compare Katniss to Bella! Why in this freaking earth would you say that? Also asking people to hate you is rather lame... Also why was the first book BOAING???Oh yeah and what do y'all think about them splitting the 3rd book movie into two parts? I think they should do it to Catching Fire rather then Mocking Jay... Wbu?RCF

In Theatres: Hunger GamesAt home: The Adventures of TinTin.RCF

Yes Jennifer was PERFECT for Katinss! I told my mom that she was going to be playing her and my mom thought Jennifer was going to be a horrible Katniss. But after the movie that all changed! Yes the fire scene was pretty shaky and the part with Cato and mutts was pretty bad! Hopefully for Catching Fire they will have better camera motion! Also I hear that they want to split the 3rd movie into to two. What do you guy’s think about that? I would like it even better if they did that for Catching Fire rather than Mocking Jay. If I had it my way I would rather have all three movies split into two just so that we could get the whole book in! So lemme know what y'all think about that!RCF

A banner that says " The best kept secrets" and lots of quotes and a link to a book.RCF

@ToaOnarax,I really LOVED the books! But I thought the movie was amazing! I ejnoyed them both!@TahnokVal123,Granted the camera work was kinda bad the only reason they did it was so the it wouldn't get a rated R rating. Like for example in when Glimmer got stung by the tracker jackers they wanted to make it so the adults could see all the swelling etc but that it would be OK for the younger audience to see it too. The hallucination gave me a headache. Yeah that part was pretty bad! I had to close my eyes at on point! haha@ ~JC~C'mon you know what I meant!RCF

@ Balta, The movie was really really close to the book! I just saw it yesterday. I thought that movie was freaking amazing! Everyone was saying violence was horrific, acting was bad, and that the whole movie sucked. I however couldn't dis-agree more.There was hardly any violence, acting was actually pretty good and the movie didn't suck. So to all the haters out there JUST GO HOME!!! This movie was awesome! The actors did an awesome job. ESP; Jennifer (Katniss) and Josh (Peeta) They portrayed the characters very well! And the fact that everyone is making such a HUGE fuss over "all" the violence in the movie is quite lame. Oh and another thing is that they are saying younger kids shouldn’t see the movie. Don't tell me you haven’t let them see Twilight, Crime shows or any other shows with wayyy more "bad" stuff. So just be consistent!RCF

Yeah, the first book is pretty good, but it's all downhill from there.Really? I thought book 1 and 2 were the best. I've just started book 3 and it's not that bad either. Granted book 1 is the best. Book 2 is still pretty good!RCF

What if we have never read the Battle Royal books? I myself have not. Would you still get upset at people like me who have not read those books? Also you said the movie looks awful and that the acting is horrendous. Which parts in the tralier look awful and what acting parts look horrendous? I have seen all the trlaiers tons of times and I certaily don't think that the movie looks awful and I think their acting is just fine!You said that you tried the fist 50 pages and they sucked. Everyone that I have talked to can't put the book down. What was it that you saw or read that made it suck? Just trying to understand! P.S THE MOVIE COMES OUT TODAY!!! I get to see it in two days! Can't wait!!! <3RCF

Haha some of the Twi-hard fans would disagree! Anywho I'm on chap 15 of Catching Fire. And i'm pretty ticked of that all is happend in the past 3 chapters... Were any of you guys mad also?Oh and Team Gale? or Team Peeta? RCFHahah, Hunger Games seems to be beating back Twilight's popularity, at least a little bit.I chewed through Catching Fire too fast to be mad; I just wanted to know what happened next. But my dad was kind of irritated with what happened in that one.Also, Team Peeta. XPI finshed the first book in 2.5 days. I could not put it down! I'm almost done with Catching Fire. I believe i'm chapter 25 or 26. Three days till it's out in theatres!! I can't wait! The cast is absoluty fantastic. Liam,Jennifer and Josh do such an amazing job as Gale,Katniss and Peeta! I've seen the tralier like 30 times already! I have also seen a bunch of little clips and they are amazing! Pshh I bet Hunger Games is going to crush Twilight and Harry Potter (Yep you heard me right). The box office think it's going to make anywhere from 75 Million to 150 million on the opening weekend! The fan base is freaking HUGE!!! Team Peeta huh? I'm so torn between which one. But I have to say Gale! I mean I want a man like Peeta but Gale is PERFECT for Katniss! I do believe the world will be talking about the Hunger Games for a while! RCF

Haha some of the Twi-hard fans would disagree! Anywho I'm on chap 15 of Catching Fire. And i'm pretty ticked of that all is happend in the past 3 chapters... Were any of you guys mad also?Oh and Team Gale? or Team Peeta? RCF

I could see how the "romance" could kill some of the guys off! But I know for us girls we love that sorta thing! Lol I agree the first book and was pretty violent. I'm pretty sure the makers of the movie were having a hard time trying not to make it rated R because they wanted the young kids to able to watch it as well as adutls and teens. They still wanted to have violence in the movie(s). I personally am super excited about seeing it. I mean c'mon guys we should give this series more credit then Twilight! Yes they both have romance but at least in Hunger Games they aren't any sparkling vampires named Edward! RCF

Rick Riordan wrote the Lighning Theif series right? Well I didn't think those were bad at all. If something is popular why would you hate it? Jw.RCF

I don't mind that the author is "Fashion obsessed" I think that shows that she has some class, if you will. Why don't you like that?RCF

@ Llyod: The White Wolf What parts in the traliers made you lose intrest in the books/moive? Also what is overrated about the story? RCF

They both involve a post-Apocalyptic government making a bunch of teenagers kill each other. Or something to that affect.I have only read the Hunger Games. so that's why i was asking! RCF

That explains why you could care less if it was shot in your town! You should try the 2nd and 3rd one! Maybe you will like them better! @ Toa Zaz, How so?RCF

Mockingjay really? All my family and friends said that that one was their least favorite! I have yet to read. Can't wait!RCF*Shrug* I guess I can see why that would be, seeing as how the very ending was sort of predictable, it suffered from a few anticlimaxes, was pretty depressing, and a few other bits here and there. I still felt it was the perfect conclusion, though. And the entire suspense and trauma was executed very well, imo. I'm not saying you can't chose that one if you know what I mean, I was just surprised that one was your favortie! like I said all my friends and family said it was there least favorite! But I guess i'll have to wait and see once I get there! @ BENLUKE-116, Have you read the books? RCF

I really like katniss,Peeta and Gale! I love District 12's salute! I cried when I read that part! :PPRCF
