What is Hunger Games about?

Future US gov't pits children from different districts in a televised life-or-death struggle for food and provisions for their respective homeplace. Mainly a way for the government to flex their control over the people.

It's essentially Battle Royale by Koushun Takami. I looked into it and apparently when the author of The Hunger Games submitted the final manuscript, the editor told her it's a lot like Battle Royale, to which she replied, 'never heard of it' and that was that.

What's weird about hunger games is the 3rd book is by far the worse of the trilogy and they decide to make 2 movies based on the 3rd book and they both suffer for it, I haven't seen battle Royale but I want to but I heard hunger games copied it

I haven't seen one movie from Lords..bought the Blu ray of all the Harry Potter for my mother. She likes that stuff.

I haven't watched Hunger Games all the way through in like 6 attempts.

Love LOTR, favorite trilogy of all time. Disappointed by the Hobbit trilogy though
Love the original Star Wars, didn't like the prequels, disappointed by the Force Awakens, loved Rogue One
Saw the first three Harry Potter movies, lost interest after that. Haven't bothered to watch the rest despite everyone saying they're much better than the first three
Really liked the Hunger Games movies except for the last one, thought it was trash

I like Hunger Games. Star Wars is OK. Haven't seen Harry Potter or LOTR. Those two movie franchises don't seem like something I would like.

Star Wars is life.

Lord of the Rings books are bibles, movies were mostly piff.

Grew up with Harry Potter dems my niccaz.

Hunger Games, the modern franchises are fun but I don't think I'll ever be able to rank it with the gawds.
