North Escambia Fans Turn Out For ‘The Hunger Games’
March 23, 2012
Many North Escambia residents were at the midnight premiere of the movie “The Hunger Games” last night.
While most were at a Pensacola theater with comfy chairs and high definition screens and sound for the midnight showing, Brittney Peebles of Bratt was at camp and decided to “rough it” at the Our Place Youth Center and Family Theater in Monroeville, Ala.
“Since the Rave is over two hours away from the camp we came to a make shift one in Monroeville! The tickets? Yeah, they are rocking the construction paper, the actual theater is a tin building and the chairs are actual chairs! Insane? I think it’s safe to say I really wanted to see this movie,” she said, about a half hour before the film began.

The young girls and old women will enjoy the romance, the old men the socio-political implications. A long and interesting film. Gentlemen take your ladies to see Hunger Games. You will find yourself in a more positive light with that person. The Running Man meets Lovestory with a happy ending.
If you like Hunger Games you should check out the novel and movie of Battle Royale. Great Japanese novel and movie!
that’s ok, we are going tonight. They probably didn’t get home until 4am this morning.
The movie is 2 1/2hrs long.
