Hunger Games could have really benefited from an extended cut that got a little more into those aspects of the world (that maybe aren't as cinematic).

I think that most of the movies also have to fit a timeframe of “buttache time”. If the movies are too long, it gets really hard to sit through them. The best I can do is about two and a half hours before I have to move around. It doesn’t help when they get really long. I think that is why the directors are making those movies. I remember that most movies used to be about 100 minutes and still be great.

I only had the problem because the description of Katnis in the book and Jennifer Laurence were so totally at odds that it was a distraction at first. I also miss the detail you can get from the books. I have these on DVD for my home collection , so I can watch them whenever I please, without any additional edits to fit the times. Another good one was the Divergent Series, but the same thing happened there with he books first then the movies.
