    She's not Legolas to where she would have been able to fire 4 or 5 consecutive aimed and accurate shots, picking off the entire group in 5 seconds. As I said, she had no combat skills, she was just a normal girl who can hunt a little (she did miss a lot too). The "bad" group weren't scrubs, she would have been able to fire one aimed shot before they spotted her and then it would have been an open field battle, something she didn't want.

    The Hunger Games book is literally 78x better than the movie. I was disappointed in the movie big time. But thats to expect when you try to fit a best-seller into a 90 min movie.


    If you were even mildly interested in the movie i suggest giving the book a read.

    Bah, use the trees to hide. Take out the leader first and the rest will fall in the confusion.

    CC you don't have to avoid all big releases.. Lawless was legit yo. Tom Hardy in Lawless > Tom Hardy in Inception.

    I definitely second the Lawless praise. A great film.

    If y'all haven't seen a Hong Kong movie called Infernal Affairs, y'all should check it out, it's the original The Departed and I think it's better. IMO the tone is better as it's more emotional and deeper, especially Andy Lau's character (Matt Damon's counterpart) and I liked it better that in Infernal Affairs Andy Lau's character was not only the main antagonist, but also the main character and the star opposed to no true star in The Departed. The dialogue is pretty similar except take out all the f-bombs from The Departed, which I thought made IA less distracting and told the story in a more compelling manner. And the soundtrack is beautiful and fit so well with the movie.

    Now don't get me wrong, I liked The Departed, thought it was a pretty good movie, but I think everyone who has seen that should watch IA, your opinions on The Departed just might change.

    I don't avoid all of them - just the crap.
    Lawless looks good as well as a few other things but I won't be rushing out to see Hunger Games or the next Twilight anytime soon.
