The hunger games

[Daybreaker]

I watched the movie, and thought it was 'ok'. I think it would be better if I haven't already seen Battle Royale. It's practically a Hollywood flashed up version of Battle Royale, which was still the better movie in my opinion....

If you haven't read the book yet please do, IMO it blows the Hunger Games out of the water...though yes, I still enjoyed the Hunger Games (movie too).

I've read all three books, couldn't put them down actually. Only took me a week to get through all three. I've also seen the movie which I thought was very good, but not as good as the books (are movies EVER as good as the books?)

I read all three books in like 3 days loved the books thought the movie sucked

I thought I was the only one who thought the movie was horrible. I don't understand how it received so many good reviews. I understand that the film had to put constraints on itself to make it age-apporpriate.. due to the fact that the majority of ticket sales would be going to minors.. and it is a young-adult book after-all.. but the movie could have been so much more if the violence was portrayed that same as it was in the book.

The costume designs were under-whelming too. I do love lenny kravitz though.

On second thought, if I hadn't read the book I probably would have enjoyed the movie a lot more.

Exactly. No movie can compare to what you get out of a book. There is a intimacy between the reader and a book that a movie just can't replicate. None the less I'm still looking forward to watching the movie.
Also started book number two, and it's starting to heat up fast!

The lord of the rings series comes pretty darn close...
Peter Jackson is amazing. Cant wait til the Hobbit comes out

Read all three, love them! You'll stay up way to late to read those dang books!

And I have to say it, people who say the moive sucks and the book was way better, please name a movie that was better than the book... you have to go in knowing the movie is going to be different and the book is way better, it always is.

i stand by my statement. I cant think of any except for the Lord of the Rings movies. The books were still better, but those movies come very close!

The LOTR books were still way better, there was so much detail! That was a lot of reading.
