Let us know what you think. Does this live up to the books, or do you already spot some drastic changes? The Hunger Games hits theaters on March 23rd, 2012.

Last year one of my teachers enterduced only 5 kids to the book... and that the teacher would take us to see it.But honestly how can some of you say that this 1 min trailer drawls you away?! Yeah books are always better then the movies(most of the time) but i think both the books and the movies will be great and by the way you cant tell much from a 1 min trailer but who cares.I told my grandpa that he will have to take me if my mom didnt and he saw the trailer and was actually kina excited so there it is some people are really excited.But on the other hand some apperently arent!I read all 3 books and they were AMAZING so i guess we will all have to see how it ends up!But i bet it will be really good!How can you tell from a 1 min trailer?!

Trailer is far too short to judge whether or not there will be drastic changes to the story. I don't know why Hollywood feels the need to make significant changes to amazing books. Isn't that what sold them on the idea in the first place? "If it ain't broke don't fix it," or so the saying goes. As for this trailer it offers nothing and does not draw me in. However, as I am already a fan of the trilogy, I cannot wait to see this movie.

This teaser trailer would not make me want to read the books is I hadn't already. It says nothing about what the movies are about and is half of the teaser trailer is just showing parts of Katniss's pin.

Yeah, there are a lot more forest scenes in the book... drastic changes... I don't know how we're supposed to tell from a one minute teaser.

she looks way to pretty and groomed..big turn off , can not wait till they "kill" each other. ( sarcasm) This isn't appropriate for Teenagers...and the Teaser looks like Edward is hunting for the Deer but Katniss has a bow and arrow

At first, I didn't know what to make of the movie. From the pictures, I thought Katniss looked a little too old and Peeta looked a little too thuggish. After seeing the teaser, nothing much has changed. Of course, it was a very short teaser, and I'm sure there will be tons more coverage on the movie in the coming weeks, but I'm still a little skeptical. One thing I liked from the teaser, however, is the vibe. I was reminded of Chell from Portal, seeing Katniss alone like that. Even the music sounded distinctly Portal. I think Valve could make a killer game for the movie! Maybe someone should ask!

"I am serious... and don't call me Shirley."
"When am I gonna learn how to punch?"
"These go to eleven."
"Benjamin, have you ever been severely beaten about the face & neck?"
"Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming."
"You're gonna need a bigger boat."
"Jessica's got cable."
