Does the Hunger Games piss you off.......[views:4709][posts:32]_________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:12am - KEVORD ""] Cause you know it's just a pussy rip off of Battle Royale? |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:14am - Alx_Casket ""] I had that exact same thought when I heard the series described on NPR this morning. Lame shit. |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:16am - hauptpflucker ""] So far I'm annoyed. But I've only heard things about the book/movie. I really don't have any first hand experience. |
| ___________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:18am - posbleak ""] Yet another horde of adults obsessed with another children's book series At least Oprah's Book Club got housewives reading War & Peace |
| ________________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:24am - hauptpflucker ""] I think adult obsession with children's books is proof of the dumbing down of society. |
| _______________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:30am - ark ""] today it's harry potter, back in the day it was hardy boys, at least people still open books. never heard of this but battle royale ripoff = LAME even though that ripped off lord of the flies and the most dangerous game. |
| _______________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:33am - Yeti ""] i keep hearing about this Hunger Games, but i am out of the loop. is it a remake of Battle Royale? or just the same idea? |
| _______________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:34am - the_reverend ""] kids killing each other? how can this be bad? |
| __________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:34am - RustyPS ""] I have not read either book or seen either movie (but I am seeing The Hunger Games tonight) |
| _________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 10:35am - Mark_R ""] Vibe I got from hearing people talk about it was a Battle Royal concept inside of a The Running Man setting. I probably won't see the movie. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 4:42pm - Alx_Casket ""] The Hunger Games made an appearance in this article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/22/t...p-reading_n_1373680.html?1332530926 #1 book to blame for nowadays dumb kids! |
| ________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 4:47pm - Burnsy ""] I saw that 21 jump street movie last night. When I came out of the theater with my date, we were overwhelmed by a bunch of teenie-boppers waiting in line to catch the midnight opening. Didn't see many adults. Movie looks lame. Why get pissed though? |

Why get pissed though? Because my wife loves these stupid books and would never watch Battle Royale. I get pissed when people steal other peoples cool shit and mainstream it for a dumb audience. |
| ________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 5:05pm - Burnsy ""] Gotcha. |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 23,2012 5:05pm - DukeManjunk ""] yes, when i am hungry and whatever woman i have in my life at the time is too busy playing games to make me a sammich i get filled with murderous rage. |

| ___________________________________ [Mar 24,2012 8:45am - demondave ""] UPDATE: The last thing you see in the movie is Donald Sutherland's Ass. |

| ____________________________________________ [Mar 24,2012 10:28am - FuckIsMySignature ""] only JLA is real. |
| __________________________________ [Mar 24,2012 10:37am - RustyPS ""] Donald Sutherland's Ass (or DSA) was not bare like JLA, so I concur. |
| ________________________________ [Mar 24,2012 12:34pm - yummy ""] Saw this last night. I thought it was pretty good although I knew nothing of it except my girlfriend is partway through the second book. |
| _____________________________________ [Mar 24,2012 9:50pm - xanonymousx ""] i figured out how it was going end 20 minutes in. reminded me a lot of the running man without arnold. also didnt how come there was so many kids there. for a topic that isn't kid friendly. would have been better if it was rated r |
| _________________________________ [Mar 24,2012 10:19pm - KEVORD ""] If it was rated R it would be Battle Royale. I saw it today. Would give it a C+. OK but not worth the hype. |

| ________________________________ [Mar 27,2012 12:03pm - yummy ""] I could ollie over a recycling bin but could never land a kickflip:( |

Faggots who couldn't land a kickflip in '89 have no idea and probably read Transworld instead of Thrasher. Hahaha. Jodie Foster's Army -- I haven't heard that name in years. Thrasher was a great rag, I subscribed for years (and was landing kickflips in '89). Transworld was definitely for fags. |
