  1. My best friend gave me a short resume of Hunger Games argument. It sounds so boring. Needs more elves and dragons, murdockes love elves and dragons.

    1. @nerthos most of the time. you do realize this is a story about a game where teenagers have to kill each other for entertainment.

      1. @zimzap Battle Royale did it better.

      2. @zimzap Sounds like the same sort of subgenre as Battle Royale (the book, at least; dunno how the film compares).

        1. @spectrumscramble The film is nowhere near as good as the book. So much information lost in transition.

          1. @ceruleanspark Yeah, I thought that might be the case. There's very few books (at least within the set of those that I like) that work well as books, and still work well when adapted to films.

            1. @spectrumscramble The manga is actually a very good adaptation.

              1. @ceruleanspark Yeah, I've read that, and I'd be inclined to agree that it's very good. Still not sure which I prefer, though the novel does of course have the distinction of being the original version, for what that's worth.

      3. @zimzap Yeah, boring.
