Hollywood Hunger

I mentioned recently that I have been reading The Hunger Games novels. I'm now on the third book - Mockingjay - and I'm enjoying them.

I still haven't bothered watching the first movie. I hope to do so in the near future and will then catch the second film when it comes out later this year.

What I did notice about the films is that Mockingjay is going to be released in two separate parts.

That's milking it a tad too much.

The book is the same length as its two predecessors so - as far as I am concerned - there is no need for two movies.

It's easy to see why they are doing it this way.

Hollywood had a lot of success with the final Harry Potter and Twilight movies being two-parters and I guess they want to repeat it with The Hunger Games franchise.

That's the best reason I can think of, anyway.
