Hunger Games Theme Park

In case you haven't heard there's a rumour going around about the possibility of a Hunger Games Theme Park. Lionsgate is apparently thinking about creating a Hunger Games theme park for the lovers of the post apocalypse world also known as Panem. 

According to Jon Feltheimer, CEO of The Hollywood Reporter was the one to report about the possibility of this theme park.

He told analysts in a conference call that "We have been approached in two different territories about potential theme park opportunities, which gives you a sense of the cultural impact of this franchise."

The fact that they have been approached twice in two different locations about this theme park really shows that The Hunger Games has made a major impact all over the world. It has been printed in 26 different languages and has affected over 35 million people world wide.

I for one am extremely excited to have another theme park to add to the list of parks that book lovers can officially visit and enjoy. They can relate better to certain book characters and can experience their feelings and emotions in greater detail and can have fun whilst doing it.

If I created a Hunger Games Theme Park then this is what I'd include.

1. I'd put all the 13 districts around the Capitol. Each District would be a different part of the theme park where you can experience life in each district.
2. I'd have a roller coaster that went from district to district that eventually met up with the Capitol in the centre of the park.
3. I'd have employees dressed up as different characters from the books - Effie Trinket, Peeta Mellark, Katniss Everdeen etc.
4. I'd have two smaller sectors of the park reserved for Catching Fire and Mockingjay. These sectors would portray the wars and events that happened in these books.
5. I would have roller coasters that made you feel like you were in the arena and that you were running away from someone else.
6. I'd have mini arenas set up where you could stay for the night i.e. camping in the woods (I'd make it glamorous)

I have many more ideas but I think that this post would go on for too long. I think its a great idea though. I love the idea of people being able to connect with the characters that helped make them the people that they were today. I do realise that this theme park however wouldn't be the best for little children. I don't know what Lionsgate would do if the theme park idea did go through. I am excited and I really hope that this idea becomes a reality.
