Renowned director Francis Lawrence, recognized for his work on The Hunger Games trilogy, is set to helm the film adaptation of Stephen King's novel, The Long Walk. The storyline unfolds in a post-apocalyptic United States, where teenagers are compelled to partake in a perilous "long walk" contest along a major East Coast highway. Lawrence's background in directing dystopian narratives, exemplified by his success with The Hunger Games series, positions him as a fitting choice for this adaptation. The project, which has seen various directors over the years, gained new momentum in 2018 under New Line Cinema. Lawrence steps in to replace André Øvredal, bringing his expertise in crafting gripping dystopian horror tales to breathe new life into King's 1979 classic. The film's development, previously tumultuous, is revitalized with Lawrence's attachment, promising audiences a compelling exploration of a totalitarian empire's sinister competition.

Braden and Sydney are back on the set to watch one of the best book-to-film adaptations in recent history, the Hunger Games series. We explore several avenues including the excellent worldbuilding from Suzanne Collins, specifics on why James Newton Howard's score elevates the series, why we are supposed to hate Gale, starting the President Snow fan club and so much more. The in-depth look at four films is preceded by an erratic news segment that jumps between several topics, including another Last of Us discussion.
We discuss the fan theory that says the 13 districts in The Hunger Games are actually the 13 original colonies long after American lost the Revolutionary War with Britain.

How the heck does Hunger Games fit into being a movie about business? Welp, Brian does his darnedest to tell you in today's vid. Good luck B! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kt4DQcYfX-c Transcription Business Movies: The Hunger Games Series. Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live. Today we're going to be talking about the Hunger Games. Now, how do you have the Hunger Games as business movies? How could you possibly look at them as being business movies? I'll get into that in a second. First, I want to apologize, I do have a white tank top on right now because I got home, I got comfortable. I had clothing that was appropriate to wear for our nightly video, and my youngest proceeded to urinate on it. So that just comes with having young kids and of course, I've got boxes off to the side. This is just pure professionalism tonight, so I'm hoping you're enjoying yourself. Let's talk about The Hunger Games. I'm not sure if you've seen these movies yet or not give you just an I'm not gonna know spoilers, give you an idea. These are dystopian movies, they are based in the distant future, in a situation where people are basically being held down by a horrible government that runs everything, keeps everybody into 12 separate districts has a regular annual thinning of the herd, if you will. Where they team up and have kind of a lottery that picks one young person from each district and has a battle to the death in a sort of Olympics, shall we say? Roman Colosseum type situation, very brutal, all filmed all put outlive in a very reality TV type, you know, survivor type idea. And it's very clever on its basis. These were a series of books, these were three books that got put into four movies, and the concepts are interesting. The political ramifications get really interesting, especially toward the end of the series. But I went back with my wife and rewatch these and I saw a whole nother level that for some reason, for the most part, escaped me the first time watching it. These movies are not as much about a dystopian future as they are very much about marketing and communication. And you can learn so much about how to communicate and market better with your audience based on these movies. Now, starting at the very first movie, I'm just going to give you the basis is the main character gets pulled into the situation to where she is one of the contenders. Throughout the whole thing, she is finding ways to be able to win the audience to her and also be able to play those who were designing the game against itself and trying to pull the whole thing down on itself, while also coming off in a way that's different than would naturally be seen. She's trying to project a very clear image. It's the same thing that everybody does with their business or should be doing with their business. If you own a business, the whole idea is that you're trying to project a certain image out there, you're trying to get a certain idea of what you are and what you're not. And hopefully being able to get out the what you are trying to be known, white and trusted. This is the process that Katniss Everdeen, the main character goes through in the first movie, and it compounds with each additional movie, it isn't just this subtle little undertone, it might be a little bit in the very first movie, by the third and fourth movie, it is the storyline to where there are characters introduced that are discussing this process of what's happening and how this person needs to get this effect. And that person needs to get that effect to for them to be able to get their political ends. By the end of the movie. You have other political sides attempting to take over and them trying to retain the support of the public. Very, very, very interesting and worth rewatching if you've never watched it before. If you watch it for the first time, don't just watch it for the deep dark undertones.

In Episode 12 of the EWBR podcast, Anisha & Dhruv discuss the Young Adult genre in fiction – marketing ploy or the real deal? For all you Potterheads out there, before there was Potter, there was Ged – we talk about Ursula Le Guin's epic Earthsea series and in the non-fantasy space, Weightless by Sarah Bannan. Then there's Michaela Coel's searing and very, very relevant TV drama of consent in this day and age, I May Destroy You. Finally, Anisha's been having a bit of a salad love-in, so more on that and the ever reliable flavour gurus Meera Sodha, Ottolenghi and Sabrina Ghayour. (The links below are affiliate links.

On this episode of The Cooler Than Ecto Podcast, we prepare for "A Wrinkle In Time" by talking about one of the biggest "Y.A." film series, "The Hunger Games". Host Rob Champion and returning guests Erin Bee and Jaime Duncan breakdown all four movies and compare them to the books. We also discuss topics such as Is Katniss a pointless character? Does President Snow's plans against Katniss make sense? Why would you keep a brainwashed Peeta on a mission?

This week on The Sci-Fi Movie Podcast, Jonathan and Rem are joined by Pi'ilani to dig deeper into The Hunger Games series based on the novels by Suzanne Collins. The PositiveThe 3 book series was made into 4 films and we appreciated the very good character development, these are people who are deeply scarred by the events following their participation in The Hunger Games. We also enjoyed Donald Sutherland, Elizabeth Banks Woody Harrelson and Stanley Tucci as they supported Jennifer Lawrence in her excellent portrayal of Katness Everdeen. Pi'ilani found the fight sequences to be very well performed and choreographed. The NegativeThe prevailing feeling is that the third book could have been done in one movie instead of two. Seems like they were padding both movies to justify having the final two installments. The VerdictEven though the two final movies would have best been done in one, it's still an entertaining series. We suggest watching the movies and then read the books after to pick details that weren't present in the movies. Listener Feedback Facebook feedback from Shanna (one of Pi'ilani's friends) I think the movie was really well done and faithful to the series. One thing I always liked about the film is that anything that was added fleshed out the story. Usually they gave us conversations from Snow or Coin's side that we knew were happening but that we never got since the book is only from Katniss' perspective. I also think split these made sense. Even in the books it's essentially two parts, Katniss recovers and assimilated into District 13 and then Katniss and the rebels attack the Capitol and essentially have to enter another version of the Hunger Games. My only issue with both the book and the movie is I really feel for Gale. He's in a catch-22 cause the decisions and actions he took made sense for war but would never make sense to Katniss and I just always hate that he could never get a fair shot because of everything happening around them. But that's my personal sadness over how that relationship shakes out. Not a critique of the writing. Audrey SrodI got into the Hunger Games due to the 1st movie, which is the best. After movie 3 I had to know how it ended so I picked up the Mockingjay book, that is the only book I read. The story was good, I like how things ended, and Peeta was the right choice for her. The movies did a better job of depicting Katniss. I disliked book Katniss, she was so weak, fragile, and indecisive. I hated all her mini mental breakdowns in the book, she was always thinking about herself or her small inner circle vs the larger picture. War was going on and all she cried about was Peeta, then Peeta comes back and she is a dick to him. Actually, she was a dick to him a lot even before the torture. She was her best self and treated Peeta the best in the arena. I like that she was flawed, but I prefer movie Katniss. Scott BuchananA guilty pleasure I came across by accident. The first one was the strongest, with the 2nd one slowly revealing a broader world with twists on the games from #1. Liked #3 but it really is set up for the big finale. Jennifer Lawrence is strong and very human as our hero, while Donald Sutherland brings serious presence as the central villain. My main criticism is that at times the surrounding districts feel tiny in comparison to the capital, which can take away from the expansive sense of the films. And we only needed 3 not 4 films (thanks Peter Jackson for this terrible precedent over too many movies). Stuff happening doesn't necessarily equal plot. RexTo be honest I wasn't the series' biggest fan. Never read the books so I'm sure I'm missing out on the nuances and profound themes a film adaptation cannot accurately portray. That all being written, the first was a bit slow, the second had much more depth and the last two were absolute departures in tone. It became what it shouldn't have been: a CG spectacle marginalizing its prevailing themes of freedom and faith (in oneself, others, etc). Plus it could have been done in three films, no doubt. Huw LloydHi guys, stumbled across you on iTunes and have been binging on the podcast since. I haven't read the books to my shame. However I'm really enjoying the films. What really impressed me in the first film in particular. Was that it never shied away from showing the consequences of violence both psychological and the physical. TamelaOverall I really enjoyed the HG series (books & movies). I had reservations about Mockingjay because it's the least interesting book of the series. And LGS made a mistake to split an already boring book. MJ2 had some great moments but the last 30 mins fizzled - just like the books. But really enjoyed the emotional scenes from Lawrence. John SheehyThe Hunger Games world holding some potential interest I think is a rouse as this story never gets itself distracted from the mission of regard towards its lead character.It's all become shallow and boring as a cast pander to one person who then acts like a spoilt child... Over and over againIs this essential Sci fi? NopeIs this even Sci fi? .... Because what does the mirror to humanity reflect in you? I would probably prefer my kids watch Battle Royale or Lord of the Flies....

With the final installment of the blockbuster YA series THE HUNGER GAMES hitting theaters, we look back to the material many accused HUNGER GAMES author Suzanne Collins of ripping off: 2000's BATTLE ROYALE, a hyper-violent Japanese film adaptation of a hyper-violent manga about kids killing kids in a government-mandated slaughter. In this episode, we get into the many similarities – and many more differences – between the two, as well as BATTLE ROYALE's reputation and place in the larger scope of Japanese cinema.
