The only thing that ever pisses me off is when people lie about it. Why don't they ever say "Yeah I was a huge fan of Battle Royale, it's what inspired me to create Hunger games... but with my own evolution of the story I wanted to take the character of blah blah to blah blah, instead of blah blah, the protagonist needed to be blah blah blah..." It would pretty much be a non event if they did that.
true... "good artists borrow, great artists steal."Here's my thoughts: I don't care. There are very few original ideas and you get where you get by standing on the shoulders of giants.
I'm a sucker for dystopian type movies. Like Equilibrium and UltraViolet
