Favorite of the Week- Hunger Games




Everything According to Erin



This weekend I finally saw The Hunger Games and I loved it. I've been a fan of the books for a while and was really happy with the movie. Some parts were cheesy and maybe not gritty enough to fully represent the novels, but it had a PG-13 rating, so I was expecting that. I felt the movie stayed mostly true to the book and I can't wait for the rest of the novels to go to the big screen.

Have you seen the movie or read the books? What are your thoughts?

Oh and want to know what you can do with your old bridesmaid dresses? Host a pub crawl!

i have read all the books but have yet to see the movie. i want to and hopefully can convince my hubs to go with me. he is so not into any movie that could be close to a chick flick.

love the pub crawl idea!

I love, love, love the books...probably my favorite books of all time. I saw the movie yesterday and I really liked it but I thought it was lacking some of the romance the first book provided. I cannot wait until the next one comes out!!!

I wish they had made the movie rated R so that it was a littl grittier too! But since the books are Young Adult I figured it would be on the tamer side. I thought the acting was good...really good! I am loving Jenifer Lawrence. A lot!
