Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games In The Movie PipeLine

Although billed as a young adult book, Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, sounds like and frankly reads like, a plenty grownup story to me. Coming soon from Nina Jacobson and her company Color Force.

Hailed by Stephen King, it tells the story of a competition in a dystopian world where geographical regions must send representitives to fight to the death. This is all televised of course in the gladiator/running man format. I’m not sure that’s kids stuff.

Further to this rant, I finished Neil Gaimen’s Graveyard Book recently (loved it). The Graveyard Book was sold in the kids section at my local giant bookstore warehouse. I don’t think the Graveyard book is even remotely for kids. Anyway, that’s my rant for today. Via BloodyDisgusting.
