Yesterday, I watched a film that I've heard people speaking about for a year now on and off. It didn't pull me to watch it when it first came out; however, I felt the need to do it finally yesterday. The film is The Hunger Games [the first one, not the one in theaters now]. Before watching it, I was expecting this to be a film showing a future totalitarian society, its depths, and intricacies -- which is usually what I like about these types of films, since they show glimpses into alternate/parallel earth timelines or timelines on other planets. Anyway, watching about halfway through the film, I realized that it was nothing what I expected, but everything that I needed to see in order to experience the reality of what our society is in at this moment.
