It's quite difficult to really know what to expect from movies based on novels these days - especially if it's a movie that came out as quickly as "The Hunger Games" did.LihuaEmilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14025178036069730064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636753868888685143.post-38357781846662262612012-03-30T17:15:58.378-05:002012-03-30T17:15:58.378-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Pete Hautmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04904540764318731548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636753868888685143.post-39712978976117825082012-03-30T17:15:56.345-05:002012-03-30T17:15:56.345-05:00Emily, I'm glad you (and just about everyone e...Emily, I'm glad you (and just about everyone else) liked it. I might have been really knocked out by it if I hadn't gone in with such elevated expectations.
