I hadn't seen it yet, no suprise that Battle Royale is the winner on the votes though.

That link you copied was to a different article for me.  This one works though: http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/movies/2012/03/hunger-games-suzanne-collins-battle-royale-dystopia-reviews-showtimes.html

Some day I will probably relent and watch the movie (on HBO or something where I don't directly contribute $$), but until she acknowledges the fact that BR was influential in the book, I'll continue to vote with my wallet.  I'm happy for the fans of the book though -- it clearly was a big moment for them.

Wow. {nm} DOW53 Mar 25, 10:00

Whoa. Anybody short on this thing? {nm} lesana Mar 25, 10:03

Probably. They will just hide in a dark corner for some time. {nm} DOW53 Mar 25, 10:10

long on the stock, but short on the OW warrant dave3626 Mar 25, 10:21

Same position as you. 2.7 times on the way up is a very good trade. {nm} tradermark Mar 25, 10:22

Ditto. {nm} GLAMMGUY Mar 25, 10:39

Pretty ditzy group. {nm} tradermark Mar 25, 10:55

There are 15M+ shares short, 250M+ long so about 5-6% short; the OW is 25% short (including me :-)) {nm} KalElFan Mar 25, 10:28

Speechless. {nm} kydem Mar 25, 10:03

Looking like... capitolfi Mar 25, 10:17

98.73% YTD there's where it's helped me get. and with derivs tomorrow... winner winner chicken dinner! {nm} perply1 Mar 25, 10:18

I don't think it's going to make you another H$250 million... {nm} ndmaster Mar 25, 11:46

Agreed...but I am interested to see where I am when it delists {nm} capitolfi Mar 25, 12:27

Curious how many of the naysayers will come and offer a mea culpa. {nm} MiyazakiFan Mar 25, 10:21

Did you read this bit comparing HGAME to other dystopian-reality-game-killing stories in the LAT? A bit of a continuation of our convo. Paul2k Mar 25, 10:26

I hadn't seen it yet, no suprise that Battle Royale is the winner on the votes though. MiyazakiFan Mar 25, 10:41

Duh on my part. Linked to the wrong article, glad you found the correct one. :) {nm} Paul2k Mar 25, 10:47

Mea culpa on B.O. skepticism, but it was still Overhype-driven, middling 7/10 avg at RT-Metacritic, kids killing kids, etc. KalElFan Mar 25, 10:32

It was a really good film. Entertainng the whole way. {nm} tradermark Mar 25, 10:36

now its time to short it $$$$ {nm} jamesbik333 Mar 25, 10:35

You realize selling/shorting/covering is 3 trades and on 100k shares is 1.2mm in commision so its 12 points tradermark Mar 25, 10:44

If you hold until delist, you won't need to use commission to cover. {nm} stevie1der328 Mar 25, 11:06

I thought they were charging on delist now as well? When they made all the changes? {nm} tradermark Mar 25, 11:15

Nope, fortunately delists are still commission free. {nm} stevie1der328 Mar 25, 11:18

This will delist around 340 just like HP8 {nm} jamesbik333 Mar 25, 11:20

Wow, I bought HGAME long at $209 and made exactly 100.03% gain after the adjust {nm} petz Mar 25, 11:15

Insane! {nm} thatpj Mar 25, 11:23

Fattest. Refresh. Ever. {nm} Jane_Citizen Mar 25, 12:00

Wow what a treat {nm} MrsRobinson Mar 25, 15:24
