THE HUNGER GAMES Becomes Fandango's Fastest Selling Movie Ever

Why is this series so popular? It's plot is as cliche and contrived as can be. *sigh* I just don't get it.

My pals in Hawaii (the girls planned this against their will) want me to see this if I head back next month. I'll just book my flight for June. The Lorax and John Carter are coming out. That's where my money is going.

First Twilight now this.. When is crap like this gonna end!

Lol at the [frick]ing morons comparing it to Twilight.

THIS IS NOTHING LIKE TWILIGHT!

Read the damn books, before you judge.

I hate people like that!
Pick up a copy, before you pass your idiotic judgement.

At least this film will have proper actors.

Nothing about Hunger Games looks interesting. I'm sure it'll be miles better than Twilight, but I still can't figure out why people seem to put it on a pedestal.

I'll watch 'Battle Royale' instead.

Its amazing how comic fans actually think they're any different to Twilight fans or Hunger games fans. Under the non biased eyes you're all just variations on the same kind of nerd fixated on what pleases you best regardless of its technical quality or merits!

In an added thrill, all theaters will not be serving ANY drinks, but very very salty popcorn, making a sequel happening in every theater showing this pimple cream smelling flick, "The Thirsty Games"!!

ENOUGH WITH THE TWILIGHT COMPARISONS MUMBO JUMBO BULL****

It is not like that. It is not a teen romance story. Is there a love triangle, yes, but its not 5% of the ENTIRE TRILOGY. Hunger Games has sacrifice, survival, corruption, dystopia, murder, mayhem all in it. Twilight has emo glittery vampires, boy-hungry girl and a pedofile wolfboy.

Katniss Everdeen is not like Bella Swan. She is not boy crazy, she is not even interested in a relationship. Sure Gale Hawthorne wants her, but she cares for her family more. The thing with Peeta Melarek was manipulated by Peeta himself to manipulate the gameplay.

For those who are calling it a Battle Royale rip-off, stop it. I never heard of Battle Royale AT ALL till AFTER I read these. The only thing that is similar is that teens are having to fight to the death.

Differences

Hunger Games Tributes are chosen by Lottery Systems, it is televised and they do not have collars on their necks where their heads blow off if they leave (Never read or saw Battle Royale, read a synopsis of it)

Take time and read the books. If you ahve time to read comics, you have time to read these.

I just went by the theater I usually go too to get tickets to the midnight showing. They only had 6 seats left in the ENTIRE THEATER, and this is an 18 screen Rave Motion Pictures theater by a mall. When the young lady at the ticket booth told me that I literally said "Are you serious?" so if people didn't think this would be big, man I can't imagine how big the opening weekend will be.

I remember when this same theater sold out all 18 screens for Iron Man 2.

I am not too sure about this movie...

The trailer was not really exciting and made me just want to pick this up on dvd when it comes out...

Uh, didn't Harry Potter beat Twilight in advance ticket sales? Fandango itself said that HP DH2 broke Twilight's previous record. You guys going back on your story now?
