The Hunger Games


Reading the Hunger Games was interesting but cruel. I think if i was apart of the audience i wouldn't be as concerned with a person dying in the end. I chose to connect The Lord of the Flies with The Hunger Games because i think that in the Lord Of the Flies they boys conformed with the leader and if they wanted to go against the rule then they could be killed too. And in The Hunger Games, they were forced to go in and kill to win the games, Katness in her own way went against the government, but the rest of the participants did what they were told once they were chosen to be in the game. In my opinion, i think that the bystanders have the most affect on the things that go on around the world, they are the ones that have the power to stop whats going on. If there was no audience in the hunger games, then what would be the point? There would be no audience and there would be no entertainment. I feel the same way about some reality tv. If no one wold watch their shows then there would be no more of whatever particular show. So, we should ask ourselves, how do we put an end to this? Or do we even want to? What would we watch on tv, what other kind of entertainment is there if it wasnt for drama and violence?
