...Hunger (First Draft) When the President of Nigeria and his wife received and accepted gifts in 1989 for the naming ceremony of their fourth child, the sources of those gifts were in question. “The rush by transnational corporations, traditional rulers, and the wealthy in the country to present gifts to the President and his wife under the guise of presenting gifts to the newborn baby, was merely an excuse to strengthen ties and ensure that they were noticed against the future” (Ojo 167).

...be masked as something desirable and be used to rule people by instilling fear. But as what Hunger Games has illustrated, violence has to end for its sheer brutality. Assuming for the sake of discussion that we will rule violence outright in books and films, will that end violence and aggression in society? Obviously not because censorship will not solve violence and in fact may even exacerbate it because many will protest against it with some resorting to violence. The degree of violence, or what is acceptable and not in books and films about violence is relative and again, it cannot solve nor end violence itself by just limiting the exposure of books and films whose...

... The Hunger Games The Hunger Games directed by Gary Ross is a movie which touches upon very philosophical question of peoples consumerism and media power. The film traces a story of a TV show based on the death competition of tributes who arrive to participate in the show from 12 Districts.

Maybe he believed that it was Peeta I loved, and he stepped back to help me decide?” I remember him mentioning to me before that he wanted my feelings to be real if I was going to be with him. Not mixed and confused like our last kiss by the fire that was as meaningless as kissing someone drunk, as he put it. It was hard to tell during the Hunger Games and rebellion while desperation to keep them both alive overwhelmed me. I pick up the jacket and decide to wear it as it brings me some comfort from my father. I miss him. Gale always...
