Discrimination is shown in The Hunger Games often,as the story is largely based on inequality and prejudice. A prime example is the way the people of the Capitol treat the people of the Districts,particularly people from the lowest Districts on the food chain,10,11,12. I don't know if you have read the books or seen the movie,but if you have seen the movie,notice at the tribute parade Katniss and Peeta join hands and hold their arms in the air. Caesar Flickerman makes a comment along the lines of:'See I LOVE that!Two young people,holding their arms up together to say we are PROUD to come from District 12,we WILL NOT be overlooked,I love that!"
Notice how Caesar implies that tributes from 'outline' Districts are often overlooked,and almost never have a victor.
I hope this helped you.
"Once they are done I'm like a plucked bird ready for roasting."
One that's really obvious, is when almost everyone calls Katniss "the girl on fire" you could take that literally, but its meant as an idiom meaning that Katniss is full of rage and is crazy. Thats the only one i can remember from the top of my head from Hunger Games
In the book The Hunger Games one of the main characters, Peeta has the unique skill of being charismatic, and is an expert at blending in with nature.
Yes, there is quite a bit of fore shadowing in the hunger games. Theres a lot but I can give you some examples. Bread was introduced very early in the book, later on with Peeta you realize how important bread was. And it says that Katniss's mom ran away with a coal miner, even though she was from the merchant area. This fore shadows Katniss choosing Peeta over Gale.
There isn't going to be one *sob* mockingjay says on the front "the final book of the hunger games" ^That is true. And sad. :( But there are new books about the hunger games and a special edition of Mockingjay that are coming out, and I've heard their might be a fourth book.... but since the hunger games is a triology... if there was to be another, there is a possibility it may have different characters or something? There's also going to be a movie, coming out in March 23rd, 2012.

No, the Hunger Games is not scary but it might have some violent scenes but otherwise it is not scary at all, also some upsetting scenes... :)
One example of alliteration in "The Hunger Games" is the phrase "stinging spile" used to describe a tree trunk that is used by tributes to collect water. Another example is "sugar-coated seduction" used to describe the Capitol's glamorous and deceptive tactics during the games.
loved it!

The Hunger Games, because the Hunger Game is a mix of genres, which are action, some believe science fiction, and romance. The 39 clues is not like this, making it simply dull and boring compared to The Hunger Games.
Examples of oxymorons in Pride and Prejudice include "fine eyes" and "proud humility." These phrases contain contradictory terms that create a sense of tension or contrast in the language.
The Hunger Games and Battle Royale have a similar plot, but The Hunger Games is not a rip off. Here are some differences posted by our contributors:First of all, The Hunger Games is set in the future. Battle Royale is not.Battle Royale's "tributes" are captured and taken, the tributes in The Hunger Games are chosen.The Hunger Games can last longer than a day, Battle Royale's battles to the death do not.
When I heard of the Hunger Games, I thought they had to do with food:p Omg. Katnip and Pita bread win. x_x
