Get away from the Comment box. Before one word is typed about the headline...those were Courtney Love's words, not mine.

March 13, 2012 @ 2:50 pm PST    The Hunger Games     Andy Neuenschwander    
Just how violent is movie adaptation of "The Hunger Games," set to hit theaters next week? Violent enough for British censors to demand that some of the bloody scenes be cut in order to give it the British equivalent of a PG-13 rating!
