The most striking common factor between the Twilight franchise and The Hunger Games films is their provenance: both are adapted from hugely successful books by American women authors for the young adult market.

But while Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight books are romances involving characters who happen to be vampires, The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins is far closer to science fiction. It’s set in the near future, with the USA, depleted by drought, famine and war
so no

Each of these 12 districts must annually offer up a young man and a young woman, aged 12 to 18, who will be trained in the art of survival and thrown into an arena, to fight quite literally to the death, all in front of a live TV audience for whom watching is made compulsory. This event is known as The Hunger Games – think of it as reality TV, taken to a shocking, bloodthirsty extreme.
nothing like that silly twilight

I am sick and tired of you people comparing the Hunger Games to that THING! Really???All you see is the pretty faces and the love triangle??? Are you people THAT superficial??? If anything the love triangle is the LAST thing ANYBODY should be interested in when it comes to the Hunger Games!! It's a story about survival and the beginning of a revolution that can change the world and yet all you see is the barely existing love triangle, really I feel sorry for you!!! If you want you integrity to stay intact I would stop comparing anything to Twilight, you have to realize you insult us!


well said jasmine honey

The Hunger Games is nothing like Twilight. :joker:

Twilight is romance, the Hunger Games is action/sci-fi. :joker:

The only comparison to Twilight is the success it's had :shrug:

The only thing I could feasibly compare it to is Battle Royale...

No, it really isn't. It's nothing like Twilight.

Hmm I suppose, but Katniss (the lead character, for everyone else's benefit :p) doesn't really grasp the idea of love or romance, and there's a hell of a lot less angst in this.

It's more political, really.
