I still haven't seen Hunger Games, but I was in the store today and overheard a woman and the cashier talking about it, the cashier and the person she went with had read the books and did not like the movie at all. The woman who hadn't read the books loved the movie and started reading the books because of the movie.
The cashier and her friend hated the movie because
of all the background stuff that was cut/changed. They did not like that Rue barely got any screen time or how the introduction of the pin was handled.
I can't believe Cabin In The Woods is finally coming out.
And also that there was an American Pie sequel in the works, and I'd heard nothing about it. I loved the first one and didn't like the second. Anyone here know any deets about this?
It's about a high school reunion, per the ads.
askye,
I think their reasons for not liking the film are valid.
I saw the Battleship Potemkin in it's entirety tonight for the first time. It's amazing how it still stands up. I had only ever seen the Odessa Steps bit before.
There was a live, improvised musical accompaniment which I did not like because it was loud and (I thought) obvious in its dissonance. I was kind of relieved b/c the guy doing the music was a former nemesis of mine, and I was happy to not have to give him grudging respect.
Watching
Bridesmaids
for the first time, and if Annie
doesn't end up with the cop,
I will be heartbroken.

I got that far from the title, even.
I'm just wondering if anyone knows if it sucks or not. It doesn't seem like it's been screened, but I don't know if there's down low buzz.
I've enjoyed the others enough for it to be worth matinee prices, and it looks like they got everyone back for this one.
Am I the only one who got a little teary at the end of
Bridesmaids?
Also, wasn't George Glass the name of the secret boyfriend Jan Brady once made up? (Annie uses that name when Ted asks who else she could invite to the wedding.)
