After seeing the Hunger Games movie it came to my attention that not everyone loved it as much as I did. In fact, I heard some pretty crazy reviews of the movie. Out of curiosity, I wanted to post this quick little survey to see what you all thought. I'll post the results in a few weeks so you can see the outcome. Also, now that the Hunger Games is making its way through the movie world, what do you think is the next Big Thing in YA? For me it's a toss up between Divergent and Blood Red Road (as I'm sure you all know by now).
What YA Buzz are you excited about lately?
I have not seen the movie, but I have heard about the mixed reviews.
ReplyDeleteSorry, I haven't seen it, so can't do the survey. Considering how much money it's made, I doubt the creators care if some people didn't like it.
ReplyDeleteI loved the movie. Amazing! So close to perfect. It's the best they possibly could have done and it's the best book-to-movie adaptation I have ever seen
ReplyDeleteI thought it was fantastic even if there were things I wish were done a little better. That's always going to be the case with book to movie adaptations. Overall, they did a phenomenal job with it.
ReplyDeleteI'm also a major fan of Divergent and Blood Red Road. Such great books :)
Fun idea! I really liked the movie, but I've heard mixed reviews too. Crazy people - what's not to love? :)
ReplyDeleteYou will so be able to tell which survey is mine, based on the comment. *Grins*
ReplyDeleteI swear, this will be the first thing I do when I get back to the States. Most everyone I know has seen it and liked it (though my mom said it was "too intense" for her, haha!). I think most books that get made into movies get this kind of attention, mainly because a movie is never going to compete with what everyone imagines. At least, that's imho :)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see The Children of the Gods series made into a movie or TV show. I would love to see William light up the room with his smile. One can only hope. :)
