Since Mockingjay Part 2 will be released in theaters on November 20th while Star Wars: The Force Awakens won’t come out until December 18th, I might as well start with The Hunger Games first. So to celebrate both movie franchise premieres, I have decided to attract both fan bases with my posts for Nerdvember. But only one of these franchises involves a moment of incest. Still, they both involve headstrong heroines in mortal peril having to choose between a scruffy looking, dark, and handsome nerfherder who gets tortured/frozen and a sweet but seemingly wimpy light haired guy who’s not as lame or defenseless as he looks. The other revolves around a rich capital exploiting its districts of resources and retaining control of them by forcing 24 teenagers from these districts in an annual fight to the death on live television. One franchise involves a rebellion fighting against an evil empire in the midst of outer space and involves droids, jedi, aliens, and intergalactic battles. The other takes place in a dystopian post-apocalyptic society in North America. One takes place a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. The other will release its final installment based on the second part of the last novel. One franchise will have its next installment after years of mediocre prequels and will unite 3 members of the original cast. One is said to be a ripoff from a Japanese movie while the other actually is that even the creator admits it. The other is based on a trilogy of young adult novels that were released less than 10 years ago. One is an epic ground breaking franchise that changed the reputation of visual effects and science fiction movies in general as well as entertained generations for nearly 40 years. Because during the next two months, two major science fiction franchises will dominate the big screen once again. So until Christmas comes around, no more posts about costumes, treats, crafts, or other stuff associated with special occasions. Now that Halloween is over, I can go back to business as usual.
