Movies - The Hunger Games, John Carter

[kriadydragon]

I cried! I never cry for movies but this one made me cry! When Rue dies *wibbles* and Katniss breaks down *wibbles some more* and District 11 revolts *more wibbling*

I liked a lot about this movie but one thing I really liked is how you felt bad for all the tributes, even the ones acting like jerks. Because, really, this isn't their fault. This is survival, and the district being jerks. It was violent but in no way did it glorify violence, and the movie portrayed that wonderfully.

John Carter. So, apparently, this didn't do well? Well, don't let box office numbers fool you. I really enjoyed this. It was fun and exciting, with something a little Star Wars-esque about it (*cough*and the lead mostly shirtless through the whole thing*cough*), and I loved the aliens.

I don't know much about the book, either, but now I want to read it :D I feel like good old fashioned sci-fi movies like JC are in short supply. Mostly it's alien invasion movies, and though I do enjoy them, I would love to see more space adventure movies.
