No matter how the blogs try to make it sound interesting – and even though Soderbergh is attached – it’s still probably going to be shit.

The fact that Jennifer Lawrence is essentially reprising her Winter’s Bone character in a Battle Royale setting shows how conservative they are approaching the project.
