Hunger Games: Le film Publié le 20 mars 2012 à 08h18 | Mis à jour le 04 mai 2012 à 08h59 The Hunger Games: les jeux sont faits et très bien faits Sonia Sarfati Hunger Games de Suzanne Collins est un livre sombre et brillant. Rappelons les « faits ». Chaque année, pour rappeler une révolte avortée, deux « tributs » âgés de 12 à 18 ans sont choisis au hasard dans chaque district et envoyés dans un territoire hostile où, sous les yeux des caméras, ils vont se battre. Téléréalité vicieuse et tordue, les Hunger Games se terminent quand il ne reste qu'un survivant. Dans le district Douze, Katniss (Jennifer Lawrence, qui porte le film sur ses épaules avec gravité et maturité - comme elle l'avait fait dans Winter's Bone) s'est porté volontaire pour remplacer sa petite soeur. Mais avant les combats, la fête. Il aurait pu y avoir là violence extrême, à la façon de Battle Royale de Kinji Fukasaku (adaptation du roman de Koushun Takami) qui sort justement en DVD ces jours-ci et est un bain de sang sans âme. De Gary Ross.

Cool Stuff: ‘Star Wars’ Tourism Posters By Steve Thomas It seems the coolest thing about Star Wars these days is not liking Star Wars. Bashing George Lucas and what has become of the Star Wars universe is certainly the latest craze and anyone who comes out and says they’re still a Star Wars fan probably feels like, well, what actual Star Wars fans felt like before 1997. In that long stretch between Return of the Jedi and the Special Editions, Star Wars wasn’t as despised as it may be now, but it certainly wasn’t cool like it was when the prequels came out. So, it’s a testament to the long lasting positive legacy of the franchise that artists continue to design posters inspired by the series. The first two prints, Kessel Run and Racing Through… are each 13 x 19 giclees, hand signed and numbered out of a limited edition of 150. As stated above, the rest of the series is still a few months out, but Acme posted tiny preview images of them: Seems we’ll be getting Sandcrawlers Across Tatooine, The Swamps of Dagobah, Lambda (?)

Corporate Lessons in Management fun twiste Corporate Lesson 1 A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower when the doorbell rings. After a few seconds of arguing over which one should go and answer the doorbell, the wife gives up, quickly wraps herself up in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbor. Before she says a word, Bob says, "I'll give you $800 to drop that towel that you have on" After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob.

Laugh Break Stories - College Applicant This is an actual essay written by a college applicant to NYU in response to this question: I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently. Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row. I woo women with my sensuous and godlike trombone playing, I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty-Minute Brownies in twenty minutes. Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended a small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I am an abrstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless bookie. My deft floral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany circles. I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy.
