** laughs ** It is no that the methology of the two books is the only thing that is the same, this goes further: the more detailed aspects of the story in "Hunger Games" are very close to "Battle Royale", and whilst I can believe that any single individual can easily never hear of "Battle Royale", I can't believe that such a slip can happen with editors/copyright,I just can not. If you just Goodle the story , you will get plenty of references to Battle Royale, and in the World where population of Asia (China, Japan, Korea taken together) is actually WAY larger in proportion than the population of USA I honestly can not believe that someone didn't research and/or didn't notice and/or didn't care!
I was not convinced in X-Men by Jennifer's performance, not at all. It all might go fine, but I am not pre-disposed to like her Katniss. From the book description I can't get over her in my mind as "Hispanic, smallish and 16", not "Blond, big bosom, 21" as Jennifer.
