PHP:
takes some guts to make a "Hunger Games" movie and then make the audience  wait 80-plus minutes for said competition to get going, but "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" makes that gamble  pay off brilliantly.

Girlfriend and her sister are out seeing it now. I saw the first and will watch the second one too

Saw it twice, once on opening night with my kids and the next day at a private showing for our students that met their reading goals (junior high). I liked it and thought it was better than the first one.

I saw Catching Fire last night and thought it was brilliant. I liked the first Hunger Games a lot, but loved this one.. I never read the books, but heard this one follows the story perfectly. Great acting, suspenseful, and all around just a great movie.

On the other hand, my husband did fall asleep.. but it WAS a late movie :p

Boys-Have you seen this one yet? http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/about_time/

Saw it this afternoon for our 1st anniversary..loved it (one of my all time fav's)

:toast:


Yep. Really enjoyed it. Agreed, better than the 1st.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman with his usual great performance!

Jen Law is freakin' smokin' isn't she?

She's on a mission going into the next movie!

Since when does sleeping through it and walking out on something qualify as "saw it"?

I thought the first one was excellent and this one looks pretty good, as well.

Watched about an hour of it......then fell asleep. When the guy in back of me tapped me on the shoulder and said hey buddy you're snoring, that's when I walked out. That is after I got my money back.
