I think that's right... although I fear the effort to crunch the books down to movie time and make giant money will result in more of a teenage romance flick (puke) than a good survival action (why I liked the books).

The studio putting out Hunger Games is Lions Gate. Check out their chart:



The move from $7 to $14 since October is all anticipation of the Hunger Games franchise.

If for whatever reason, the movie does not do as well as anticipated (which could also mean they don't follow through with the trilogy), then the stock will fall like a rock. The stock currently trades at 27x next 12-months earnings (i.e., forward P/E of 27x vs. the market trading at 14x), so I would say this is not a cheap stock. The movie had better be a run-away success for the stock to grow into its current valuation.

I'd like to see it, but the amount of hype I see it getting has me worried.
