Civil disobedience is part of one of my favorite scenes in the new indie film Blue Like Jazz. In the scene several character dress up like robots and invade a large Barnes & Noble style bookstore to protest the mega-store controlling what we read. A very fun scene.
This has made me think that we fans of Hunger Games need to stage our own act of Civil disobedience on May 4. May 4 is the opening of yet another comic book movie--The Avengers; and experts are predicting it will out sell Hunger games, and knock the film from the top of this year's box office charts. I'm sure Avengers is a fine film, but I really was blown away by Hunger games, and would like to see it maintain it's hold on the top for the year.
So I am calling all Hunger Games fans, no matter how many times you've seen it, to go back to the theaters on May 4th and pay to see Hunger Games AGAIN!! keep it at the top of the box office, even in the face of The Avengers. And if you really want to see Avengers too, sneak in to see it after you've seen Hunger Games.
