Film-the hunger games

Did this movie remind anyone else of the short story, The Lottery by Shirley Jackson? I haven't read the 3 books, but the movie instantly made me think of Jackson.

  • It reminded me more of "Battle Royale."

  • That was one of the best outstanding flick of the month , hit the box office wonderfully with its amazing actions and everything inside. Katniss Everdeen volunteers best who was just 16 years old and enchanted the viewers of the movie.

  • It's not that only reminds of Battle Royale. The Hunger Games is totally inspired from it! Anyway, the futuristic apocalyptic end reminds me of another interesting movie, In Time. Seen it?
