Congratulations C_T. We saw the trailer for Hunger Games when we went to see Twilight. It reminded me of the Sci-fi films like Logan's Run and The Running Man.

I've read the books before, they're fantastic! I didn't own them yet (though I did b*y the boxed set on Amazon a few days ago as they were a Black Friday deal), so the one I won is a Christmas gift now :D

I think THG is more similar to Battle Royale than the titles you mentioned, but then they are all dystopian novels, so of course there the similarities of the genre present in each of them.

Never heard or seen Battle Royale. But a quick scan online suggests you are right.

You guys should READ it. It was a book first, you know!

And congrats Valda, that's awesome! I wanted to go to that too but didn't enter as I wouldn't be able to make it tonight.

Uh no. It's an adult novel. A Japanese one at that so can get quite extreme in its goriness.
