interesting hunger games is having such a cultural resurgence given how shitty everything is. i love the series but christ every scene is dark and depressing

Nah, they’re different genres. Hunger games is a power fantasy. Battle Royale is horror.

It’s probably not that. People just like to reference things that are culturally relevant.
