Hunger Games
 
Who else has read the trilogy? Seen the movie?

I personally LOVED the series and think it ended perfectly. And as for the movie...wow. That was probably the best movie based off a book that I have ever seen. The stuff they added was beneficial and perfect, and the stuff they left out didn't ruin the story at all.

honestly, I haven't read or watched it. I'll have to look into it! :)

I'm about to start the second book. Loved the first. I felt the movie, while still good, felt rushed.

I read the trilogy but did not see the movie, Unlike you I was disappointed in the ending but usually am in trilogy endings. I also felt the last book rambles a bit like the author was tired of the story and was trying to fill up the paper. On a score from 1-10 I give it a 7 or 8.

I also read the trilogy, but have not seen the movie. It was quite a predictable story line and I was not a fan of the ending, but I did enjoy the quick and easy read. I was very much hooked and read each book in a day and a half (so less than a week for the trilogy).

I read the trilogy and for the most part I loved it. The last book dragged a little bit. I saw the movie that day it opened and loved it too! I'm a fan!! Can't wait for the next movie!happyfacehappyface

We play hunger games right before lunch every day, and snack time ;)

Good books and movie

Loved the books, less than thrilled with the movie. I mean, it was ok... but not up to my standards.

I loved the books, the 3rd dragged on for a while, but I cried towards the end very sad that her sis died, but kicked A#% when she took out the person who was responsiblehappyface, they didn't see it coming:lol:.
I have not seen the movie, but I am planing on it.

I burned through the books in 4 days...could not put them down!

ooh, this is making me want to bring out my kindle and restart the third book! I used to read it while I pumped at work last year but, for some reason stopped! Loved the first two and I also really liked the movie.

The kiddos for the family I watch gave me this trilogy. I wasn't so keen on it but now that I have read this thread...I cant wait to start! happyface

I've read the books and seen the movie, I liked both but Peeta was not what I expected. Having said that I still thought he was cute and believable between him and Katniss.
