Trailer for The Hunger Games Released!

To the glee of 14 year-old girls (and, I can't lie, myself), The Hunger Games trailer has hit the interweb. Check it out below:



Yea, yea, I know Suzanne Collins' series is unabashed rip off of Kinji Fukasaku’s Battle Royale. And yes, the writing style is geared towards “alternative” high school girls reading at a slightly remedial level… but I can’t lie. I really cannot wait. At the end of the day, a book/movie team about children killing each other for the thrill of a TV audience in the thematic vein of a not-boring-Lord-of-the-Flies has done everything right.
