The Hunger Games Cinema Trip



The Hunger Games Cinema Trip

Year 8 were blown away with the film version of The Hunger Games. We had a great evening at the cinema. Armed with nachos, sweets, popcorn and chocolate, we settled in to view the much hyped blockbuster. For me, the film lived up to a lot of expectations, but as you will have guessed, I still prefer the books! The Capitol was a visual pleasure - the colours popped and the costumes were fantastic. Cinna was exactly as I imagined and I loved the part when Katniss shot the apple! I missed the undercurrent of fear that is present in the District in the novels, but overall, one of the best films I have seen this year. After Easter I will ask you all for your comments - I'm sure you will have plenty! I, for one, will be spending the break reading the trilogy over again on my new Kindle!

The Hunger Games

The excitement of Thursday's trip to the Hunger Games has been buzzing around year 8. The teen novel by Suzanne Collins has been a firm favourite of staff and pupils. The recent film release has attracted almost 40 people from Flegg to sign up to this week's blockbuster trip. In our eyes, it'll be a winner!
