My rescue friend up on the lake has two lama's they are a hand full, fun creatures. :)K

I'm leaning toward the Prof's hat, love it!

Good to know. I have a friend who takes in rescue's of all sorts. She has ducks now. This is headed her way. She lives up on lake Erie. I know she will appreciate this as she has a side variety of animals and birds. thanks :)K

It's set in the future, but much is recognizable. No year is mentioned, but you get the feeling that they're not many centuries ahead. Out in the Districts, it actually feels set in our recent past.

I saw the film before reading the books. The latter are better, but now I want to watch the movie again.

You mention a few movies I like to see someday . . .

Nice article!:-)

This sounds like an offbeat movie with so much going for it (the director, the actors, the story, the pacing, all of which I imagine based on your review and other similar British films), and I so like movies with a great soundtrack!

I always thought, not having read the books, the Hunger Games would be set in a kind of super-charged SF environment, but the movie trailer seems to indicate otherwise, need.to.read.books. before watching the movie ...

Nice article! Learned a few things :-) Here in Romania if the service is really bad we might leave without leaving any tip at all.

Hiya Cee! No, I hadn't heard of Battle Royale. I've just read your link and it sounds like an interesting debate over there. Is there more to it than the basic concept?

Janet - I was the opposite. I thought 'Catching Fire' was better than 'The Hunger Games'. I think it's because there were more characters and their interaction was so engaging. The third one should have interested me most of all, but I still don't think it touched the second.

Thanks for your comments. :)

Me too! I so giggled when I saw that one!

I really enjoyed the Hunger Games book. I thought Catching Fire was okay and did not care for Mockingjay at all. Both my girls flew through the Hunger Games, then started Catching Fire. Neither of them finished it. They just didn't like it. Personally, I can see why HG was a huge hit, but do not get the popularity of the other two books in the series. Just my opinion of course.

I love the little vampire pacifier!

Interesting article!
