No comment on The Hunger Games?[edit]

When I first heard of "The Hunger Games," I immediately thought of "The Prize of Peril," which I had read in a Judith Merril anthology, back in the 1960s. Both had a battle to the death, both had third parties helping the competitors, and both were shot for a live television audience. (The number of competitors is quite different, and a romance angle was added.)50.0.36.153 (talk) 23:22, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
