This has got angry right now. So angry. Angry enough for me to write a post for this blog again. So, prepare yourselves for bad grammar and lots of capitalization.
THIS SHIT IS FRIGGIN' %Q#^(Y#$^TU$#!!!!!
I first heard about Hunger Games last year in my school bus. I overheard a certain teenager who happened to be female talking about the greatest shit ever, the Hunger Games. My interest was piqued by her exaltation of this work of literature and I asked her about the book and its general plot. Surprisingly enough, this work had been written by Suzanne Collins, who also wrote the Gregor the Overlander series. Now, I bloody loved Gregor the Overlander series. It's no masterpiece by any means, but I had a fun time reading it and loved the characters in the series. It's about this guy who goes to this subterranean world beneath NYC and fulfilling prophecy and shit. Fairly generic, but read it. It is middleschool level book and may be a bit immature, but I swear you'll have a fun time reading it.
Super COORU!!!
So, realizing the book was about children killing each other and finding out that it had been written by a author that I liked, I decided I would give The Hunger Games a try. Here's the story of the book as far as I can tell.
1. Post Apocalyptic U.S. ruled by a brutal regime! --> 2. Rebellion by the 13 districts thats part of the new U.S. --> 3. Rebellion shut down! --> 4. The brutal regime decides to make a show only slight more depressing than Jersey Shore by selecting random kids to kill each other! --> 5. Our protagonist, Fatness is selected with along with some kid named Pita Bread to fight for their right to party in the reality TV show! --> 6. Generic Action and killing --> 7. Some dogs that look like human out of nowhere and a botched up romance between Peta Bread and Fatness that serves no purpose. --> 8. Fatniss and Peta Bread wins! Yay! Tacos for everyone! --> 9. Peta bread loves Fatniss, but Fatniss loves some other kind of baked goods. --> The End.
How does this become a main character?
OK, so this book WASN'T TERRIBLE, but it wasn't good by any means. It scores about average in my book. So I decided that the sequels were not worth reading and just trashed the book. I never expected it to come up ever again in my life. Imagine my shock couple weeks later after watching Zombieland.
It's a good movie.
After watching and loving Zombieland, I decided to hit the wiki page of Woody Harrelson, the guy above, out of curiosity. Under his filmography, I saw Hunger Games under in production. 'No, No, No' I thought, 'there's no way a pile of average crap like that is getting a movie!' I thought. Hunger Games would pop up again when I was taking the SAT.
I wonder how much money they made off of this. At least 100 million bucks
I was in Chantilly High School when I was taking my SAT last september. AND ALL AROUND THE SCHOOL THE SIGNS WERE TELLING ME TO READ HUNGER GAMES!!!! Apparently, its the book of choice for those CHS kids who can't read jackshit. FOR GOODNESS SAKES, EVEN NARTUO HAS A BETTER PLOT THAN HUNGER GAMES AND NARUTO IS ABOUT A ORANGE NINJA!!! I was pissed at the fact that a book like hunger games got so much recognized and fame while other better works get stuck in the dust. I lost all respect for CHS that day.
Screw them.
And now, there's a movie out and it's earning shit ton of money. Now, I have watched bits of that movie and heard reviews. They all agree that its is just about average. I don't care about the fact that Hunger Games kinda ripped of Battle Royale (which is a better move btw). But I really hate the fact that something so average got a movie deal while better works get stuck in the dust. Whatevs I guess. I just hope they don't make the sequel to this book into a movie as well, but they probably will. To chill off after raging, I think I'm gonna listen to this music piece.
It's the best game franchise ever. Better than Mass Effect.
So, I guess I'm just tired tonight and just can't rage as much as I used to. But no worries, I'll continue this blog from now on. You can expect better and more poor grammar and capitalizations in the future. Adios amigos.
