“The Hunger Games” Viral Knows Who You Are Michael Lee, August 29, 2011August 30, 2011 Maybe Lionsgate didn’t give it some thought at first, but when we wrote an article about a possible viral site for The Hunger Games, the studio called to inform us that they weren’t marketing such a site nor were they affiliated with it.

Viral Video: Filmography 2012 December 12, 2012December 12, 2012Gen Ip (aka Genrocks) is one of my favorite mash-up artists on YouTube.

I can’t wait for the Hunger Games. I have watched the movie teaser trailer that I have on my website ( http://movietease.blogspot.com/2011/08/hunger-games-official-movie-trailer.html ) quite a few times already. Something familiar about it but looks unique in it’s own right.
