After a second look it's pretty much equilibrium.

I'm not holding any hopes, but the premise is at least interesting.

Yah.. it's been done before, but none of the movies posted in this thread where it was done before were good outside of being campy or so bad it's good...

Actually, I'd never heard of the book. Is the book called "The Hunger Games"?


And nothing has been strictly original in a long time.

Like I said, I'm not holding out any hopes, but there is a chance it might be good. Just gotta wait and see.


Edit: I planned on answering my own question: http://www.amazon.com/Hunger-Games-Suzanne-Collins/dp/0439023483

Cool

Reason I want to see it is because I found the books to be entertaining easy read, now to put my imagination on the big screen, it's just fun if they stick to the books at least a bit!

Ditto. The books are "young adult" fiction, so my kids loved em, and I found them entertaining. The "to the death" reality show bit has been done a million times in various forms, but I found the societal purpose and rewards behind it all to be interesting.

iirc no one was forced to enter. Entering the Long Walk was voluntary, but once you were in, there was no backing out. It was win or die.

IIRC the motivation is simply greed.
