The Hunger Train and Theseus
Whenever prepubescent teens think of a good movie that has a massive fandom, they typically think The Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is a movie based on a book based on dropping the ball. Let me put this into perspective, if I were to tell you that there was a movie where kids fought each other in a gladiatorial arena to the death, and that movie was called The Hunger Games. Wait let me drop the ball, there is no cannibalism in this movie. So the movie opens with a crying Albino child crying over….something. There is a Human girl there to coo the creature back into its slumbers. The human girl’s name is Katniss which means of or pertaining to cats. She shoots a bow and arrow and then Nazis in a UFO come.

Later Kattacular and all her friends go to a Nazi Tribute Rally and a Blueberry monster waddles forth. It speaks in a shrill dialect and says that it requires tribute. The Albino child is picked and Katocity steps and takes her place. There’s crying for another 20 more minutes. This is like how The King of Crete requires tribute from Athens to feed the Minotaur. They get to the Capital which is sort of What Crete is. You know when Crazy people like Glenn Beck go off on things like the gay Agenda. This city is what he is talking about and so much more. They get inside the place where they are staying and train. Apparently there are like these guys that train for this thing and they win about every year, HOW DESPICABLE OF THEM TO EVEN THINK. This is actually how Theseus is because he trained himself to kill the beast inside of the Labyrinth. Finally the thing the movie based off of starts happening and kids start killing each other. There’s like this one scene where an apple cheeked ten year old gets cut about 5 times over. We cut into the movie later where Katniss is boringly running away and then boringly dodge's fire coming at her and then gets burned and then boringly

    The German philosopher Hegel construed the play “Antigone” as “the tragic collision of right against right, with both sides equally justified.” This play was written by Sophocles, a Greek playwright, around 441 BC and gives us insight into his mindset on society and culture. The central conflict rises from the clash of the main character, Antigone, and her uncle, King Creon, over the role of man’s laws and god’s laws in society. Antigone’s two brothers Polyneices and Eteocles had slain each other in battle over the throne. King Creon, who was loyal to Eteocles, rendered Polyneices a traitor and decreed that his body shall not receive a burial.…

    The relevance of The Hunger Games connecting with modern day society is extremely important and clearly transparent in both the book and film. For example, the main themes show the inequality between rich and poor, importance of looks, corrupt government, and watching others suffer as a means of entertainment. Like many people today, watching others fight is a common thing that people take part in. We see that the sponsors, civilians, and government officials bet on who they believe is going to win. This was recently seen in our society with the UFC fight with Ronda Rousey.…
